    Metal Gear Abortion - a cheap asset flip, game was made for the single purpose, microtransactions!.

    Almost everything is reused, story mode is a joke, no meaningful content (lack of game modes, enemie variation) - very repetitive overall, very bad UI/HUD and worse controls than MGSV.

    It feels like a overpriced FAN made Mod for MGSV filled with MTX.

    You have to pay to farm
    Yoy have to pay to get progress.
    You have to pay to have an additional character (Ten bucks is the minimum)
    And you have to stay online always, or you wont play.

    The game is bad, it's rushed and it's badly any fun.

Its a sophisticated zombie game (oxymoron at its finest).

    I would be lying to say that you can't have fun with this game. Taking on hoards of zombies in a strategic fashion, especially with co-op, is always a blast. And if you have a group of friends, its even more fun. The graphics are beautiful and the scavenging is actually pretty fun as well as the sense of urgency and....wait for it...survival. The customization is deep and gives you lots of options whether you want to sneak around, use melee, craft your weapons, explosives, traps, turrets, and whatever else you want to make your zombie killing a fun time.

    But that's sort of where things get weird. Its a zombie game. You are using sophisticated tactical means to take on zombies. It feels sort of cheap. It shouldn't be as pretentious as it is. What really dampens the feel is that you while you are using all these tactics, at the end of the day, when the missions really start, you just start taking on hordes of undead slowly moving upon your position. First off, what was the point of the tactics if they all just descend at once? Second, why do I need all these tactics anyway? The crafting makes sense. The weapons make sense. The supplies make sense. The travel makes sense. But, why does my guy/girl need military gear and training to run around a bunch undead who are nothing but slow moving bullet sponges?

    The real problem is that simply, they would have been better off not naming this game Metal Gear anything. Its not Metal Gear. I'm not trying to sound like an elitest, but there was really no point in keeping the Metal Gear tag. If this were just a regular game that had the zombies and a bit more toned down of the military tactics, it would have been fine. But it really seems like they took Metal Gear and just combined it with Zombie Army Trilogy.

    Again, you can have fun playing this game, especially if you get a group together. But repetitive game-play and pretentious presentation of such a simple concept may turn you away after a short while. If not, the microtransactions and always on-line connection will.    … Expand

    2) I do not like cooperative multiplayer mode. I did not like that option either in Peace Walker. I prefer to play solo. 3) I do not like to play zombie games. 4) It does not look like a Metal Gear game at all - it's not like a    My reasons why I do not like Metal Gear Survive:

    3) I do not like to play zombie games.
    4) It does not look like a Metal Gear game at all - it's not like a predecessor. It just shares the same name.
    5) Microtransactions: you need to pay extra to make a new character or to get an extra save file, also you need to pay extra for some other components. Based on this you can conclude why MG Survive was not sold at full price.
    6) Very bad story, does not make any sense at all.
    7) It's repetitive. Each level is the same: defend the tower from the hordes of zombies.

    These are my seven reasons why I do not like MG Survive. Reasons have nothing to do with Kojima or Konami. The highest rating I can give to this game is 3 out of 10.

    This is the worst spin-off of Metal Gear series. Ghost Babel, Acid, Portable Ops and Rising are much better spin-offs than this game.

    It would be better if Konami completed MGS5 by making several more missions for MGS5 and thus shows how Punished "Venom" Snake formed the Outer Heaven, and thus directly connects the story of MGS5 with the original Metal Gear from 1987. And after completing MGS5, then Konami should make a remake of the original Metal Gear 1 and 2. Then make a remake of Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, 3 and 4 for the PS4. Would also like to see that Konami make a remake of Ghost Babel with Fox Engine, and to make a Metal Gear Rising 2 to show how Raiden became cyborg.    … Expand

    You have to pay 10$ to have an extra save file, it's like konami isn't even trying to save face after the Kojima debacle, it's admirable that they are actively trying to be the worst company in the gaming industry. You know you're doing something wrong when you make EA look like saints in comparison.

It's official, the Metal Gear Solid franchise is now DEAD and this game is the final nail in the coffin. Instead of getting a much needed conclusion to The Phantom Pain or even a reboot of the original Metal Gears, Konami decides to pull this stunt as a HUGE slap in the face to Kojima and MGS fans.

    This atrocity of a game is a strange tower-defense/Resident Evil hybrid with the Metal Gear name slapped on it. The beta was painful enough to endure and I absolutely refuse to devote any time or money to such an obvious cash grab. Not to mention the stupidly awkward gameplay mechanics, pointless objectives, and meaningless story that has almost zero connection to The Phantom Pain along with NONE of the major characters from that game either. They literally just copy-&-pasted the Afghanistan environment from MGSV which is pathetically lazy and cheap. Zombies are becoming such a tired and cliche concept so of course Konami decided to go down this route, forever tainting this landmark game franchise. Anyone who grew up playing MGS should be utterly appalled and disgusted by this shameless attempt for mass-marketing appeal.

    To make matters even worse, you have to pay for extra save slots, the game is filled with micro-transactions, and you have to be online at ALL times to even play the game. This is only adding insult to injury, plus it makes it that much more obvious that they only designed this game to suck as much money out of their consumers as possible. If the game wasn't already bad enough then this was definitely the icing on the cake.

    Metal Gear Solid did not need to become like Call of Duty, but I guess the big wigs at Konami decided they needed to milk this franchise while simultaneously destroying it. What's next, Metal Gear Dance Revolution? How much more embarassing can it get? I truly hate Konami for pumping out this piece of crap game, and I'll be saving my money for Kojima's next game Death Stranding which will be BRILLIANT and a million times better than this waste of data.    … Expand

The game looks and feels good, my only complaint is some of the controls differ from MGS:V and it took a few minutes to get used to. The music is just awful and generic, far from some of the epics fans of the Metal Gear series have come to expect. My friend and I had fun for a little bit learning what items to look for to build things and upgrade, but after about an hour we both started to get bored. There aren't many modes to mix the game up and as far as I can tell the bread and butter of the game is to win matches to get new gear to slightly upgrade your character to take on harder missions. It's a slog to unlock any useful items made even more tedious by the repetitive and uninspired tower defense/survival gameplay. The gameplay feels unpolished and it's missing most if not all the Kojima flair fans of the series have come to expect. After about 4 hours of playing, my friend and I swapped over to Monster Hunter World to take a break and I've honestly only played maybe a total of 2 or 3 hours more of MGS:S since. Maybe wait for this game to go on sale, it definitely feels like it could have been a $15-$20 Phantom Pain dlc. If the game gets any substantial updates that improve the experience I might come back to update my review, but I can see this game being a casual play for most with very few hours of fun to be had.… Expand

    Metal Gear Survive is not a Metal Gear game. It's a hybrid tower defence/zombie horde game with the Metal Gear name slapped on it by a paranoid Konami, a company hell bent on destroying the Metal Gear series. They are quite successful so far in their endeavor, because Metal Gear Survive is dead on arrival.

It's a hybrid tower defence/zombie horde game with the Metal Gear name slapped on it by a paranoid Konami, a company hell bent on destroying the Metal Gear series. They are quite successful so far in their endeavor, because Metal Gear Survive is dead on arrival.

    At first Metal Gear Survive feels a bit better than what you'd expect. There is a lengthy introductory cut-scene taking place after Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes' ending, something which is designed to bait the Metal Gear fans that may be against the game's existence and accept it more easily. You start the game and encounter more zombies chasing you than in the Dead Rising games. Then you slowly start to learn the game's mechanics and complete a few missions. But after a while you realize the game's quite dull actually.

    Missions in Metal Gear Survive revolve mostly around the same pattern of setting up defenses and repel the waves of zombies who try to breach your base and destroy its core, while you are scavenging for resources between waves. It's a survival game, yes, but there are just TOO MANY things to care about at the same time. Build fortifications, find allies, procure materials, pick flowers, assemble weapons, find blueprints, manage ammo, hunt animals, and so on. Oh, did I mention the oxygen level, the hydration status, the hunger meter? You have to eat and drink or else your avatar suffers. Also the stamina bar depletes because you are just walking (whereas in Dark Souls and other games you consume stamina only when you sprint, dodge or attack). All these factors together are more of a nuisance than contributors to a better gameplay experience. There is also co-op for up to 4 players but it doesn't make the game any better.

    Metal Gear Survive is based on the same technology as the great Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain but somehow manages to look dull. Boring art style and enemies, non existent AI (oh yes, zombies are supposed to be mindless and dumb, but still), laughable boss fights (at least the 2 that I tried before I gave up and returned the game). Everything's been recycled from MGSV (art, map, textures, sound fx, animations, gameplay mechanics, etc.) yet it doesn't make for an equally great game.

    Metal Gear Survive's online-only. You can't play this game offline even in single player. It's also full of ridiculous (yet optional) microtransactions, which at least ain't that bad compared to Battlefront 2, there are no loot boxes (at least for now). Pay money to buy virtual coins and exchange them for XP boosters, or you can boost production of water, food, items, etc. Nothing bad, heh? Then how about having to pay $10 for the privilege to get an additional save slot (you only have one by default)!!!!!!1111 That's crazy.

    I award this game with 1/10. It should have been an absolute zero, but I respect the work of the Konami developers who were ordered by the company to make a Metal Gear game that is not really a Metal Gear game. They did the best they could with what they had been given, and I don't blame them because they were in danger of losing their jobs if they didn't comply. The only people at fault here are the Konami higher-ups, because they decided to release an awful, low-budget mod for MGSV as a new game priced at $40.

    Metal Gear fans should steer clear from Metal Gear Survive. Those looking for a survival/co-op game should also avoid this or at least try it before buying it.    … Expand

It doesn't look outright ugly and the base defense can be fun but the fact that it has dust and dirt for an open world and nothing more diverse than that. How did we drop so low Konami, you are on a path for bankruptcy. Anyways that is why I give it a 3/10, hope this review was useful in some way.… Expand

    Very mediocre. Lots of repetition and none of the "Metal gear magic." Also has many microtransaction elements for BASIC game functions like save slots and inventory spaces. Feels more like a decent, free MGS5 mod with free-to-play microtransactions than a full game!

Once you can actually play, the game is interesting for 30 minutes but then reveals itself to be a totally uninspired, repetitive, boring experience. I wasn’t even motivated to get into the base building, and I love that stuff.

    Also... for some reason the MGS world involves portals? And the enemies are a cross between zombies and unicorns that wind up being much more weird than scary? If they wanted to do MGS survival, the recipe seems pretty simple: make it like snake eater, a soldier lost in the forest surrounded by tribal enemies or even zombies. But a totally wacko sci-fi hell portal full of dust storms? I just don’t get any of it.    … Expand

Second question is whether the game is worth 40 bucks... The answer to that is no. There is nothing here for fans of the metal gear gameplay, and survival zombie games have been done better countless times.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Metal Gear Survive is a different beast of a game in comparison to it's namesake franchise. So much so, that it is almost unidentifiable as a Metal Gear title. Almost. There are some still faint traces of the series running deep through Survives crystalline veins. However, I believe this game would've benefitted greatly if it was instead a new IP.

    Being a spin off of MGSV: TPP and GZ, gameplay somewhat remains the same as those titles. Moving around and sneaking in the lost world of Dite is very familiar. However, combat has been changed around so that there is now a large focus on melee combat. You will create spears, blades, bats and more in order to combat your enemies. I found it to be rather fun as the fighting rewards patience, rather than overconfidence. (Which will only get you killed.) Like in all Metal Gear titles, stealth is a must. There are many areas where it is much more wise to sneak, lest you be torn apart by a horde of upset crystal zombies.

    The biggest addition to Survives gameplay is the introduction of a hunger and thirst meter. During your journey, you will be required to hunt, scavenge or even farm your own food and water. Failure to do so will result in the meters beginning to decrease and you eventually dying from starvation or thirst. This provides a reason to keep pressing forward, as you will need to always make sure they're always maintained. Health and stamina are largely dependent on this system. You eat something bad, you get sick and have to use medicine. You keep running around and you'll need to eat more in order to maintain your energy.

    Base Building and crafting are also two new components of Survive. Not long after you start, you will find the dessicated ruins of Mother Base. From there on, you will be able to fortify it, make shelter, and use it for getting around the harsh world that you now reside in. You start off small with only a campfire, and some crafting tables, but gradually work your way up. Soon you'll make farms, better defenses and more. Admittedly, I find it to be rather engaging. Crafting is self explanatory, you make weapons, armor, etc. Scavenge around for parts.

    As for the story itself... it's a bit of a mess. After Mother Base is destroyed, you and any survivors are sucked up and sent to the dead world of Dite. You find that it is overrun with "The Wandering". Humans infected by whatever thing destroyed Dite, and turned into bloodthirsty monsters. You have to find a way to get back home, and potentially cure this plague lest it be sent back to where you belong. Yeah... It's very un-Metal Gear aside from the opening cutscene and mentions of a few organizations. Oh, and codec conversations, I guess those are a thing too... As I said earlier, Metal Gear Survive would've been better off if it was a new IP. So far, there have been very few connections to tie it into the series proper.

    All in all, Survive is a fun but very flawed game. If you enjoyed the open world gameplay of TPP, then you'll find something to enjoy in this. If you want a survival game with a high difficulty, but high reward system, then I'd say pick it up. I won't say Survive is a bad game, because it's really not. But as a Metal Gear title, I really don't know. It's got stealth and a crazy story, but that's about it.    … Expand

    One of the most shameless, lazy cash grabs of a beloved franchise that has ever been seen in recent history. In many ways this is FAR worse than Battlefront II. The difference is that the Star Wars fan base is much larger than the Metal Gear one. This is trash, and whoever came up with the idea is a cancerous plague in the gaming industry.

    this gam is pretty awfull desapointing its just sucks i really hope for a better game Imagine a typical Steam asset flip, except it's a full-price "AAA" game. That's Metal Gear Survive.

    Cannot believe how horrible my purchase is, purchaced the game just today and they are asking 1000 in game currency that you have to buy with real money to have 2 saves, i already PAID for the game, why are they nickle and diming me? this should be illegal.

    This game is god awful. This isn't Metal Gear any more than Fortnight's original game mode is. It's just a bunch of reused assets from MGSV in a tower defence mode. What's worse is the fact that they somehow managed to make the Fox Engine feel clunky, not to mention the horrid UI. Do yourself a favor and save your money. This one's not even worth a sale, and the coop doesn't save it.

    Al final la moda de los microsablazos no convence a la comunidad de metal gear. Despues del futbol con scripts y paytowin de PES vemos como la comunidad muestra su rechazo a este proyecto de transacciones tan descarado de Konami, creo que la supervivencia empieza a contar para ti konami ya que los usuarios no nos tragamos estos videojuegos tan corruptos

    The same engine of metal gear 5 ... with worse gameplay, and a lot of connection lag .. the music is awful and the enemies, dumb and dull, ... the graphics are great! does not deserve your money or your time...

    Kojima left, get over it and take an unbiased look at this game instead of whining about it not being Metal Gear and appreciate it for what it is, a fun co-op experience alongside the FOX engine doing what it does best.

Take the Metal Gear out of the title and you have a solid survival game for a reduced price which more than makes up for the recycled assets, because on top of that they added in a few new mechanics that MGSV could have benefited from, such as the Bow mechanics as well as Spear combat. If you want to be a baby about it, go write for Joystiq, if not, get over yourself grab a friend and enjoy.… Expand

    The review bombing on this is real: While this game is far from a masterpiece, it is a fully competent game and may be worth your time. Please take most negative reviews with a grain of salt.

    I decided to ignore all the media controversy and reviews and give it a try myself... and I'm pleasantly surprised. The game is fun, the story is engaging (enough, anyway). I'm actually having a blast with it.

    It's surprisingly more singleplayer focused than the trailers make it look. Multiplayer is basically Fortnite's PVE mode (with the over the top Metal Gear spin).

    The SP campaign is pretty intense, though it s a slow and often tedious start. You will feel like you're constantly short on food, water, oxygen and supplies for awhile but slowly you begin to claw your way out of **** and start being able to really fight back against the world of Dite.

    I don't think this is a game for everyone and there are some boneheaded choices (like extra character slots being pay to unlock), but you also don't really need the character slots. Your single character can do it all (ala Monster Hunter), and can even be fully recustomized in look at any time. There are no intrusive microtransactions, no loot boxes, no pay to win. The game legitimately feels complete. The melee combat is clunky until you unlock some more moves (ESPECIALLY THE DODGE) but after awhile it feels fun to blow through some Wanderers while riding on the back of a personal mech.

    Now there is the issue of Weapon Storage/Loadouts also being locked behind a paywall but I personally haven't had it effect me - I don't tend to stockpile a ton of stuff and use what I have. I break down older gear once I have something more reliable to replace it with and it has kept me more flush with resources and with plenty of storage.

    The TL;DR is all the micotransaction stuff is legitimately for convenience sake, and the core game itself is not touched by them.    … Expand

    It's the Yakuza: Dead Souls of metal gear series.
    There's some interesting mechanics that give the game some genuinely thrilling moments.
    But the pacing is kinda slow and the online modes are kinda lag.

    Is Metal Gear Survive worth it? Oh yeah, totally. Game of the Year. Honestly, I don’t know why you haven’t bought it yet! Death Stranding won’t be able to compete with this. Sarcasm aside, don’t buy this game, just don’t. Yeah, the environments and visuals are kind of neato and the feeling of helplessness certainly comes across, but it’s just a clusterf**k.

    Somewhat cynical and clearly a little low budget, it isn't always easy to pull for Survive. Thankfully, some of the best wave combat on PS4 saves the day. [Apr 2018, p.91]

    The whole existence of Metal Gear Survive closely resembles this of the Wanderers – the game’s zombies. With the story, characters and wit ripped out completely off it’s body, what remains is a lifeless yet standing shell of Metal Gear Solid V. The decent (and borrowed) survival mechanics barely keep this husk walking around aimlessly with no purpose whatsoever. Survive may not be a bad survival game, but the merciless grind required and lack of respect for gamers’ time are inexcusable.
