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

    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

    If you want more MG gameplay then I suggest you check it out and ignore what these people have to say. I mean it was a little predictable that this would happen. Go look at other games... if it's not a Nintendo or Sony exclusive it's going in the red.

Crafting? Survival? Touch of metal gear? Sounds good to me, despite all the bad reviews. However several missions in I'm ready to put this game on ebay. First off, it's NOT a metal gear game. Big boss escapes in the opening cutscene, and he is right to do so. There's no stealth. No memorising patrol routes. No ludicrous cold war plot. No lengthy cutscenes. Basically you're surviving on your own in a hostile world, to find a group of soldiers who went there earlier. Maybe if they arrive, with all their numbers and weapons and tech, and ended up dead, I would not have much of a chance on my own with nothing but the clothes I stand in? But I am sent anyway. So, the plot starts and straight away you are introduced to an annoying computer. No, make that two computers, making an annoying partnership. Always telling you what to do. I would rather Miller or some other metal gear character be guiding my path, not some tiresome AI. So straight away I am looking for food. I kill some sheep. And I refill my plastic water bottle with dirty water. Just so I can survive. Pretty basic stuff. Not only that, but as this is a "realistic game" I am having to eat and drink every 30 minutes, otherwise I will die. Just like real life. What a chore. Not only that, but I don't have any weapons, other than a pipe. Or maybe a machete. So off I go killing these zombies, sorry, wanderers, and harvesting their energy just like other, more interesting games. And later on I have to go into these areas that have a sandstorm, sorry dust, which I can't see in. And I need oxygen to survive in them. Otherwise I'll die. Oh, and I also have a stamina meter, which goes down ridiculously quickly. I can run for about 1 minute, as it's realistic. Just like real life. Here's me thinking life was a disappointment, all those childhood hopes and dreams and here I am trudging off to work everyday with a couple of days at the weekend off, getting drunk, just to remind myself that I am still alive. But still, real life is more fun than metal gear survive.

    In MGSV The Phantom Pain I arrived to the mission in a helicopter playing Wagner. I had buddies, the sexy sniper Quiet who could clear a whole base before I arrived. A useful dog. A mech that was ridiculously useful towards the end. Even a horse. I had a suit which allowed me skulls special abilties. I could invade other players' bases online. I roamed the map just for fun, taking out outposts and generally having great fun. I arrive back at motherbase and everyone saluted me, they were all pleased to see me. In short... I felt like a god.

    However, in metal gear survive I don't feel like a god. I feel the opposite, I feel like a homeless person. A bum. Someone scraping to survive. In the phantom pain my minimum loadout, the one I used to keep the loadout cost to a minimum for various missions where I am just grinding, is a luxury compared to what I have to fight with in metal gear survive. In metal gear survive I am literally scrabbling just to survive.

    Video games, like an other pleasurable medium such as films, books, music, etc, should be there to take us away from the mundanity of everyday life. They should be there to fill our hearts with hope, to remind us that sometimes, somewhere, someone great can arrive to turn the tired world on its head an make it a better place. As a famous German philosopher once wrote, they should make us feel like a "superman".

    Metal gear survive just feels like more of real life.    … Expand

    Si le hubieran puesto otro nombre estaria mejor ya que en este juego ni sigilo ni accion ni nada que caracterisa un metal gear, el unico sigilo es no hacer ruido para evitar que esos bicho te escuchen pero ni eso puedes pasar como si nada.

    More like 6.5/10 than 6/10.

    Since the time that Hideo Kojima was kicked out after Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Konami has been walking under the flames and receiving booed from the fans and not fans of the producer, in all shapes and forms. Metal Gear Survive is a spin-off, so it isn't tied to the Metal Gear Solid stories and the genre is different. But don't worry, fortunately    More like 6.5/10 than 6/10.

    Since the time that Hideo Kojima was kicked out after Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Konami has been walking under the flames and receiving booed from the fans and not fans of the producer, in all shapes and forms. Metal Gear Survive is a spin-off, so it isn't tied to the Metal Gear Solid stories and the genre is different. But don't worry, fortunately the DNA (Stealth) of the series hasn't been removed.

    As the name of the game suggests, is survival game. In this Metal Gear Survive, the player during the single-player mode will have to explore the map to kill the infected, open containers, hunt animals to feed our avatar's hunger, drink clean or dirty water to quench thirst, activate and use the wormholes to create shortcuts, to make excavations to complete some purpose of the story mode or to obtain some prize, to look for materials to make and to repair certain objects, in fact ... a lot of things to do. This Metal Gear Survive uses the same graphic engine as Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain, that is, uses the Fox Engine engine and the gameplay of these titles remains in this Metal Gear Survive, albeit a bit limited by the simple fact of being a survival game. But both are two good points. Too bad that this Metal Gear Survive has copied the scenarios of The Phantom Pain; it was noted that Konami was uninspired in this chapter.

    Unfortunately it isn't the only problem in this game, because Konami shoots the microtransactions in our face in a brazen way. Yes, it is true that microtransactions are simply not new today, without forgetting that unfortunately this game requires to be always online. To create a new profile, we must have 1000 SV (10£) or delete the old profile. Other paid elements also influence the gaming experience, such as survival boxes that last a certain time, be it a day, a week, etc.

    At the equipment level, the arsenal is vast and we have at our disposal several weapons, including Tacos, Axes, Shovels, Hammers, Guns, Bows, Shotguns, Machine Guns, Molotovs, Grenades, Claymores, Mortars, etc. And we also have very important objects like Distraction, Signal Flag for when we are lost in the poisonous fog (in which we have to be attentive to our air tank), Lanterns, healing sprays, Iron or wooden fences, Wooden barricades with or without the barbed wire, among other things.

    There are several types of infected: the normal infected, the Bombers, who easily destroy our defenses and if we kill them without stab them in the back, they will explode like... bombs, we have a type of infected that runs and jumps very fast and we also have infected armed to the teeth that use weapons (weapons that are created in their hands), like machine guns and grenade launchers. They also use shields to reduce damage and are invulnerable when we try to stab them in the back. Of course, we can also face a lot of bosses that are not related to the history missions, and before they try to fight these bosses, it's a good idea to have an excellent arsenal of weapons and equipment, because it will be hell, in a good way.

    When we kill the infected, we can collect an energy called Kuban, which can be used to acquire skill points, which can be used to learn special abilities. But Kuban is not just for this, it also serves to slightly increase our oxygen, but in contrast, the durability of our air tank will go down slightly each time we buy it.

    The cooperative online mode has been reduced to a simple way of defending the tower, which, along with three more players, we have to build barricades to defend the goal, kill the infected and survive three waves of enemies. It's certainly not part of the campaign, but this mode uses the features we collect in the Single-player.

    Unfortunately the story of Metal Gear Survive is something strange and confusing, and the actors who give voice to the characters are nothing more than a simple "ok". The missions are somewhat repetitive; collect databases, save people, defend the excavation towers or the wormholes machines. But not everything is negative in this Metal Gear Survive, the game can even be a survival title due to various elements incorporated into the gameplay, and the cooperative mode can even be fun.

    If you are looking for a game with a strong survival component that keeps you entertained for a while, Metal Gear Survive is for you. However, there are too many flaws in this game, and Konami's greed stained this title and the Metal Gear series as a whole.    … Expand

    Metal Gear Survive is the Book of Memories for the Silent Hill series.
    But it's not THAT bad.
    Please bear with me for a moment as I'll explain why this game isn't as bad as it seems, I'm rating the game on it's own rather than giving a free 0 for protesting, I still hate Konami though. First, the good. MG:S tries to follow the lead of Phantom Pain on matters of style, more than the    Metal Gear Survive is the Book of Memories for the Silent Hill series.

    Please bear with me for a moment as I'll explain why this game isn't as bad as it seems, I'm rating the game on it's own rather than giving a free 0 for protesting, I still hate Konami though.

    First, the good.
    MG:S tries to follow the lead of Phantom Pain on matters of style, more than the gameplay and map, the campaign is as convoluted, giving you a fair amount of cutscenes, dialog and tapes from where you can learn more about the world and the "Wanderers" which is way more than I expected personally, I specially like the twists, they're not as expected as you may think at first, nothing exceptional, this is not MGS3 leveles by any means, but competent, is worth exploring further? Not really.

    Gameplay-wise, you get the regular survival mechanics, thirst, hunger, stamina, life and oxygen. At first, you will probably get distracted looking for food desperately, so keep that in mind when you begin and you'll have no issues, melee weapons may feel tricky at first, but they're not bad at all, and it gets easier to handle as you level up and spend your skill points in unique skills per type of weapon, stats and character skills.

    Graphics are okay, I mean, it looks like Phantom Pain would have looked like if it was made for current gen only, but still, not the best use of FOX Engine, Phantom Pain / Ground Zeroes still look more apealing. The maps are smaller than the MGSV maps, but they're not exactly the same, you will genuinely get lost in there and see new areas and buildings that are completely new or different, of course almost every asset is something you've already seen, but used in different and many time interesting ways, a map expansion would be nice though, I was expecting to see places like the palace, OKB Zero, nova braga airport, etc, I'd like to see these maps expanded and maybe bring map MGO maps, hell, even new maps based on older games would be awesome, but I wouldn't expect any of that on a realistic way.

    Multiplayer is pretty good until you play all that's there, it's a good way to get materials and blueprints, but Konami needs to bring big updates to support both single and multiplayer, otherwise this game is not going to live long, warning.
    MTX, the big **** move, charging for save files is as stupid as charging to play multiplayer (I'm looking at you, Xbox Live Gold and PS Plus) but there is a not as dark side to all this, daily rewards follow the MGSV path, giving you SV Coins randomly, in MGSV I could get all 3 FOB's and some cosmetics in MGO without paying a cent, twice. I expect to be able to buy all 3 save slots without paying, but you don't need to wait, use your secondary account and you're good. Thankfully, it isn't pay to win nor a casino (Battlefront 2...)

    I cannot say this is a bad title, is it a bad Metal Gear Spin off? not even that, it's in a bad spot, no good PR could ever go to this game, we all hated Konami for the pachinko Silent Hill and MGS3, we all hated them for mistreating Kojima and the rest of employees, we all hated them for pushing MGSV incomplete, and I bet we all still do, it is true that if you dislike the company that made it, anything will look far worse than it actually is.

    Thankfully, Kojima is doing what he wants now.
    Hopefully, the hostages Konami has, aka the old Kojima Productions, get a better job in another company

    Hopefully, Konami dies alongside EA and the videogame industry snap out of the BS we've been enduring since 2014.

    And don't forget, Konami, there's still another fanbase hating you every day, Silent Hill fans were upset by the SHs cancellation and even more with Book of Memories, even the HD Collection even all the way back with SH4 when we learned that you didn't want to give freedom to the team to end the series in a high note and forced them to transform Room 302 into SH4 only to fire most of them afterwards, you will not get away from the stigma anytime soon, let's see how long you can live with pachinko machines, yu gi oh and PES.

    This is not a bad game.
    Bad games are games like Umbrella Corps, Destiny 2, Sonic 2006, Godzilla PS4, Life of black tiger, etc.

    One last thing, about this online only stuff.
    You don't need a P$Plus suscription to play singleplayer, but you need to be always online either way, this is up to your perspective, I personally like to not worry about having no connection and play my games without problem, but if I'm having issues with my connection, even Fallout 4 works like crap, and many times, i don't even bother and I just play PS3, PS4 and any current platform it's always online pretty much, so yeah, I think this is the least of our problems, though I would appreciate and offline mode, even if my progress is separate from my online character like in black ops 3, just let me do it.    … Expand

    It's a fun take on the survival genre. The game is a little on the short side for me. I had a lot more fun with this than MGSV. It seems to me it's a cool spin-off however it doesn't add much to the saga. The store is an obvious cash grab as the game itself. Sadly Kojima fans will absolutely hate it.

    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.

    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.
