Metal Gear Solid V, the Phantom Pain Reveals and Updates: Kojima Takes to Social Media for Bug Reveals and Market Feedback

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is an upcoming open world action adventure stealth video game being developed by Kojima Productions and directed and co-produced and written by the mastermind Hideo Kojima. This game follows the mercenary leader Venom Snake as he goes to Africa and Afghanistan during the Soviet war in order to exact some form of revenge on the people who destroyed his forces during the events of Ground Zeroes. The creator, Kojima mentioned sometime back the character Quiet in the game cannot talk. How there is the question of why the voice actress is doing some voice work for the character.

Gamers have speculated that Quiet's back story would entail she was tortured and her tongue ripped or something along those lines. The other possibility is that Kojima had brought Stephanie in to do some minimal stuff like the ones the grunts do. The Phantom Pain for the obvious reason the video game characters get hurt or can die, so grunt and screams might be needed. In other news, Hideo Kojima has been busy sniffing out bugs for Metal Gear Solid V: the Phantom Pain and has taken social media in order to share some of his findings. Usually, the Kojima Productions boss uses a pen and paper method when he is jotting down the findings but these days he upgraded to a new tablet when recording his bug reports among which include the new floating Ocelot at Mother Base. Of course he needs something to jot all of those errors while testing the market appreciation for the new product.

Social media has become one of the primary ways in order to test alpha and beta product versions in the market before they actually come out. This game is no different and by the time it hits the market sometime in April next year, the public will really appreciate it. Metal Gear Phantom Pain will be released for PlayStation 3, X Box 360, X Box One and PlayStation 4.
