Love that Leonard Cohen tune "Man Who Saved The World" in the intro. Nirvana also did a cover iirc.

Simply awesome!

I'm going to be that guy, only because I can't stop myself.

The original song is by David Bowie. It's probably the original in the intro, and ja Nirvana did do a (great) cover of it.

And I think it's "The Man Who Sold The World" that you are thinking of.

Edit: No, I'm wrong ,the version in the intro is by somebody called Midge Ure. Never heard of them.

Not Leonard Cohen? I was so sure it was lol. My mistake.

"The Man Who Sold The World" Thats the one yes!
 
I'm fairly impressed by how well this game runs @4K, even on a single card I am able to run it maxed out and perfectly smooth, haven't experienced that in a long time, so hats off to Konami for that one.
 
Found this quite interesting for any newcomers like myself.





Be warned of gameplay spoilers and mechanics. No real story spoilers though.

 
Sorry, another interesting video for anyone on the fence.

No Gameplay or Spoilers!

Just out of interest, Ground Zeroes was always wet and raining. Seeing as GZ was a demo and lead up to The Phantom Pain, I can't find any info regarding rain weather in TPP. Any ideas?

It is supposed to have weather and dynamic lighting but I will have to see when I receive my game.

I think it may just be because I've only spent time in Afghanistan, where there is no rain. But also yet to experience a dust storm.

I encountered a dust storm in the mission where you have to rescue Miller. So its safe to assume that the weather is random then?

I never. And I took almost 2 hours to rescue him. So safe to say it's random as I haven't seen one and it's not scripted if you experienced it and I didn't.

I would have done it if you hadn't. Anyway nothing wrong with correcting someone specially in the manner you did it.

Well, I would have gone on thinking it was Leonard Cohen and not David Bowie so kudos to Stagger. Thats how we learn hey?
