Proof of hovercrafts like the ones in the trailer plz thx k thanks bye.

You know, hovercrafts like these:

NOT these:

I'm not saying that you don't play as Big Boss back in the 60's I'm saying that the entire experience with Big Boss might be some kind of "simulation", virtual reality. Only with flaws that make it seem unrealistic, like Hind D's and futuristic hovercraft. If Kojima was using real military advisors who knew their shit about weapons, then why would a MGS game based in 1964 have weapons from 1976 and beyond. Unless 1) these guys have futuristic, prototype crap that no one had ever seen, 2) this is some type of flaw in VR programming continuing out of MGS2, or 3) Kojima is just fucking with us, and being not entirely realistic with his choices of vehicles and stuff like that.

I mean there's other shit in this game that doesn't make sense for the time period. Like infrared goggles.

I mean *maybe* military technology was that far advanced, and I'm just an idiot and should stop worrying about this kind of stuff so much, but it just seems unlikely that this game really takes place in 1964 in reality.
