  • Since the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 is releasing soon, I've decided to make this video showing a few interesting things about MGS1 that most people don't know. There's all kinds of things, including alternative codec calls and cutscenes, secret costumes and gameplay tricks. Let me know if you learned something about this classic game from this video in the comments bellow!

    Also if you get in the back of one of the 3 trucks in the game with a Card Board Box A,B,C a soldier will come out and bring the truck to the location written on the box. Faster way to travel to different locations in the game..Example you can travel from the snowy field where you fight sniper wolf the 2nd time to the Helipad at the beginning of the game in seconds then to the warhead disposal facility right after or vice versa

    • @duffman18
      @duffman18 6 місяців тому +8

      The same thing is true in MGS 2, you can use the boxes to fast travel around the big shell. You go into the room with all the boxes being shuttled around on conveyor belts, climb up onto the platform and then equip the box, and then you get transported automatically to one of the different struts in the game based on which number of box you equip. If you equip the Zone of the Enders box, then you will be transported into the locked room in that same strut and will be able to get an item much much earlier in the game, I can't remember what, I think it may be the sniper rifle but I'm not sure. You usually only get that item when you come back to that strut way later on in the game when you're transporting Emma to the Strut L oil fence, the whole sniping section, because that's the first time you have a key card high enough to get into that room through the door. So yeah just find the zone of the enders box instead and then that way you can get into that room without needing a key card.

      you never need thermal goggles though, if you think about those lasers before the tank fight, just use your cigarets.
      for the dark cave? that place is fairly easy anyway and not nearly as dark as it should be.
      for claymores? I guess sure, but you run up anyway to trigger the cutscene and the claymores at the sniper wolf section is literally hold up (and also shown by meryl if you really don't want to hold up)
      the claymores on the snowfield after the torture segment, again, run left and hug that wall, no claymores there.

When you go back up, check on her again and she'll be doing a different exercise. Do it three times and she will be pant-less.

      It hints at the "perfection" of each Snake.
      Liquid meaning he's inferior to Solid (even if it is a lie and backwards). While Solidus implies he is perfect and an exact copy of Big Boss.
      There is also a translation "error" let's say.
      It is not that one clone is superior, it is that one clone got the Dominant genes (Liquid) and the other one the Recesive genes (Solid).

    What I find interesting, with the idea of these games being developed in a way that they don’t entirely have to be played how they were expected, there is no failure prompt for using weapons with in the nuclear storage facility, because once you’ve gotten the sniper rifle, which is the only weapon I think you can use in that situation, by actually forcing The player into a prone position, there is no like alternate cut scene even though you are warned not to use weapons during that segment, and you are stripped of the ability to do so.
    I get it something that the player would probably not think to do, but I still find it interesting that even though they give you ultimate cut scenes for such specific Scenarios, I find it funny that it’s lacking one for that specific one

    You forgot that you can use the Cardboard box to transport snake around the base by placing him the back of the truck and choosing a box that fits the destination you wanna go to.
    So for instance, if you are in the nuclear storage facility, you can travel back to the helipad by choosing box A(helipad)
    After a while a guard will come by and say: Is that really all there is to load? To the helipad then.
    And thus you will be able to short travel between 3 different places, Helipad, Nuclear storage Facility and the Snowfield.

      One thing I always wanted in MGS was after Vulcan Raven tells Snake that the DARPA Chief Snake met was really Decoy Octopus, Konami should have had a CODAC transmission of Snake questioning wither or not to proceed with the mission as it's possible that REX was already shutdown due to Liquid not really having Donald's password. Of course "Miller" would be hounding Snake and telling him it was complete gibberish and to complete the mission. That would have been a nice addition.

    I think the reason behind ocelot screaming differently is the shock effect. In a fight against a snake who has died multiple times, he is just just playing around. In a fight against the REAL Solid Snake, he is more alert, checking his surroundings, quickening breathe, jittering movements, and the sudden surprise of his hand being lost snaps him out of this state and he meekly cries out "My hand..."

    The SOCOM-less scene feels like the more "intended" one. Like they expect players to not have a gun and the dialogue is built around it. He sounds like he's talking her down (while also belittling her a little), which he doesn't need to do if he has a pistol trained on her. He could be more aggressive if he wanted to, even mildly, but he still talks like he has a gun trained on him by someone he can't just pull the trigger on.
    And also he tells her to stop thinking and shoot, but he isn't shooting either.

Or the PS1 in otacons office (gamecube for TS) or how you could catch meryl in her underwear twice (once in her cell other in bathroom if your fast enought) or how the chaft granade was Super OP againts anything electronic 😆 you get difrent Dialogs with Grayfox about honor. Or harrasing meiling on the codec where she wont talk to you and just stick her tongue out to mock you. Or killing rats and receiving a call from colonel about animal abuse.
