Octocamo in Msg4

I think it was the best camo Hideo could bring to a game.

Unlike Msg1 and 2 were there was no camo at all you just had to stay out of sight of there POV which sorta took some of the fun out of being Steatly in those games.


I think in Mgs3 it was good camo for the time in 1964. Especialy because most of the game was in the jungle

In mgs4 octocamo went over the top for being stealthy because it allowed you to be right in the POV of enemies without being detected unless you move in front of them. I think it bought alot of fun back to the stealth aspect of the game for most of Mgs players.

These are just my opinions on the Octocamo and the rest of the camo for each game. What are the rest of opinions on the camo in each games

Sorry if this was posted b4

re: Octocamo in Msg4

Well obviously it is a great feature.

Many people got annoyed by the camo in mgs3
It just took long to switch..

But the octo camo could have been done a bit better.

re: Octocamo in Msg4

You get a camo that wont match the pattern you are on.

The texture, colour.. everything is different.

Yes it has flaws every now and again but I wouldn't trade it because most of the time it is a very useful thing to have

The corpe camo saved me a few times from being spotted you know when a guard comes to investigate anything and he sees a dead body. That feature is also a great addition

re: Octocamo in Msg4

OctoCamo is fun in Act 3; put on Campbell's FaceCamo and you can walk right in front of the soldiers and not get an Alert. The reason for that is because they have a list of people to watch for, and Campbell isn't one of them. So you can get through scott-free.

It doesn't work on cautions.

I thought corpse camo was for Gekko?

The copse camo works on Pmc's and on gekkos.

You can't move at all while they are walking to you to check you out. you have to play dead the whole time until they leave.

Also when alerted with the corspe camo on just run close to a pmc let them knock you down and stay down pretend your dead from the blow and they'll say "we did it" and turn away and get back up to alert them again like I did(on chicken run) or wait till there back is turned and get up and sneak away.

Sorry for the double post

That pisses me off when they do that happens alot you need to have the corpse camo on or they will kick you

Just having octocamo on and playing dead won't work I don't know why for sure

re: Octocamo in Msg4

I'd be a lot more suspicious of a camoflaged dude than of a corpse. Maybe that's why OctoCamo doesn't work. When they come to check you out when you're in OctoCamo, it's because you're already slightly visible to them.

re: Octocamo in Msg4

I definitly like this feture better than the cammo in MGS3, just easier than having to open the pause menu whenever you go onto a different surface. also I like how different patterns can have different effects. Like Laughing, Crying etc. Has anyone else got the hand cammo & know if it does anything?
