There’s conjecture that the code for this section could be causing trouble, but the truth remains a mystery. Metal Gear Solid has a boss called Psycho Mantis who’s gimmick is that he can read your inputs if you use the 1st controller port and can’t if you switch to the 2nd controller port. In Metal Gear, the player controls a Special Forces Operative who is sent on a military mission which eventually leads him to face off against the latest incarnation of the eponymous superweapon 'Metal Gear' a gigantic and usually bipedal walking tank with nuclear capabilities. Is it a debug setting that someone forgot to remove? Is it just a bug? These seem most likely, but there’s also that one boss. It’s surprising that this peculiarity hadn’t been noticed by anyone for over 20 years, but it’s also still a mystery why this one scene allows for enemies to be controlled with the 2nd player controller. This resulted in players noticing strange behavior from the guards during the ending escape sequence and tracking the source back to the 2nd player inputs. TwitchPlays channels tend to be thought of as chaotic and hard to control as expected, but a noteworthy aspect of TwitchPlaysSpeedruns is multiple players working in sync with each other.Īs for how the discovery was made on the channel, the settings for the bot that sends the chat commands was mistakenly set to send commands to both the 1st and 2nd player controllers. There are also macros available for frequently used sequences of commands. In other words, the chat can have very precise control over the game. There’s also syntax for commands to be delayed, repeated, or done simultaneously ( details of available commands). It is reified for the player over 80 to 100. At least put something new to TPP, not only MGO. Missions don't ever change, the situations are repeating over and over again. The only way is to kill or put to sleep and take home. As you said, in pregameplays, we will have many ways to finish a mission, but that was false. Normal TwitchPlays channels make the chat commands simple, but in order to pull off speedrunning techniques, TwitchPlaysSpeedruns allows for more advanced inputs.įor example, entering “left500ms b500ms right500ms b500ms” into the chat would result in the left, B button, right, and B button inputs each being held for half of a second. Metal Gear Solid V features the Diamond Dogs, a private army whose existence relies on conflict. Dear Konami, I have been kicking my brain with 300+ hours in game, trying to find a way to play differently. This channel in particular is focused on using speedrunning techniques and routes to clear games.

TwitchPlaysSpeedruns, where this trick was discovered, is a TwitchPlays channel where viewers control the actions in the game by entering commands in the chat.

A group effort by MGSR users on has resulted in a brand new time save.
