>>30214643I like to believe that all those things could've still happened if the game had more of a Peace Walker approach with none of the open world elements, the game wasn't held back to run back on both PS3/360, and they weren't having to develop the game around the same time as the FOX Engine.
It's still a great game and a blast, but it sucks that we'll always have some cool scenes or concepts that never made it into the final product.
