There are articles on GameSpot and so forth that mention Nojiri producing/directing a new game, but I don't know what game they were referring to. The article says that Shinta Nojiri's producing/directing this (and I actually put that on his article after reading it here), but on the official Kojima Productions site, Masahiro Yamamoto's profile says that he's directing, and nothing about MPO is mentioned in Nojiri's profile. Flamecannon 23:18, 17 December 2006 (UTC) Director Ocelot joining your side is surely not canon, as even when you finish the sidequest he doesn't become playable until the next playthrough, but the dialogue he has with Snake in the course of getting him might be canon. Well, the game is out and EVA and Ocelot are both recruitable and have dialogue with Snake but only can be gotten through a side quest which may or may not be canon. we could say that Ocelot is acting in fron and behind the curtains, like always. Besides, it seems that Ocelot DOES have a role in the story, since in one of the trailers, I believe that the one that says "It's all part of our plan to make the world she envisioned a reality" is actually Ocelot, so. Persnally, I believe that's prettry hard, but I would love to see that, for some reason, Snake, EVA and Ocelot are forced to work together. That EVA might or might not have a role in this game story is uncertain. Maybe Kojima was not sure about what to do with EVA, so he left that as an open door for any oportunity. Jonny2x4 22:20, 6 August 2006 (UTC) Yeah, but the timeline states that she dissapeared, not that she died. Obviously, meant the EVA whom Snake encounters in the game. Kojima writes his plot so that the characters are referred by their common name (i.e: Snake instead of Solid or Naked). The "real EVA" was just a red herring and ultimately, a non-character who was unimportant to the plot. That way, the female EVA can be in this game. The timeline at the end of MGS3 never states whether it was the (fake) female EVA or the (real) male EVA who disappeared in Hanoi in 1968. From my understanding, EVA, Ocelot and Raikov are only recruitable online and are not key characters to the plot like Snake, Zero and Para-Medic. It mentions that EVA disapears in Hanoi, if this is the case, how can she be in this game set in 1970? i seem to remember that EVA disapears 2 or so years after snake eater.Įvildoctorbluetooth 09:13, 1 July 2006 (UTC) MPO is still early in development. Weedle McHairybug ( talk) 12:25, 14 February 2011 (UTC) GPS Metal Gear Solid 4 also reveals that the "Shadowman" was Major Zero (although it was also implied to be him in-game, such as his codename "Man with the same codename as Null"). If someone can supply canon material which states that Big Boss joined/formed the Patriots, please cite it when reverting the article. All you hear is Ocelot stating he wants Snake to join, in return for joining the "shadowman"s organization, "Shadowman" being the unknown third party. It is never said in the game or related canon that Snake does join Ocelot, and forms the Patriots.

I wondered if that was intented because in MGS3 "Space Oddity" was used also. Ok you know there was a lot of david bowie references in MGS3? In Portable Ops of you get killed one of the things said is "Snake? your circuit's dead" "your circuits dead" is in the lyrics of space oddity. To be honest, I find this sudden MPO hate that's been sweeping the MGS fandom lately a little baffling. Here's the game you're looking for : It only scored 2 points less than Peace Walker. It doesn't actually have much to do with Portable Ops, as it is only a multiplayer expansion with no storyline, and the "single player mode" is only there to train your soldiers for online play. Someone apparently left out the rest of the "universal" reviews that weren't so positive. This game is widely held as the worst MGS game ever. "Portable Ops was met with universally positive reviews"? In what dream world?
