Snake's Revenge

Your page for Snake's Revenge is not up to standard and will be deleted shortly. If you want to create the page, please look at other pages to see the proper format. If you have questions, feel free to ask. --Zackmann08 12:18, 12 July 2012 (CDT)

Yeah, I tried to base the format on that of Metal Gear Solid 2's article on this site. I can't say I've done it perfectly, though. Any suggestions to perfect it? Pokeria1 12:28, 12 July 2012 (CDT)

Was about to post this on the Snake's Revenge page but got deleted whilst writing it so will put it here. The problem is that the site only lists guns that have weapons based on real guns. With older games like this they are not really based on anything, they are just generic weapons that are modelled more on what can be done with the graphics rather than to match them to an existing weapon. Basically, this game can never have a page as the depictions of the weapons are not up to the minimum standard required. --commando552 13:14, 12 July 2012 (CDT)

Speargun

In general, a non-gunpowder weapon needs some actual reason to be on the page; either it fires explosive projectiles (Rambo exemption), we know what make and model it is (trivia exemption) or it's an equippable inventory item in a videogame (completeness exemption, only reason you should ever list molotovs). I knew the speargun was there when I made the page (since I was working with video footage of almost the entire game, excluding skipping a few non-gunny cutscenes for the sake of my hard drive) but I didn't think it was really worth listing.

Okay. Can you at least tell me what model the Speargun is or even if that kind of speargun exists in real life so I can mention it on the Metal Gear Wiki? Pokeria1 (talk) 13:53, 23 December 2012 (EST)

I'd assume it's real since the PMC commercials are filmed with live actors (the other weapons in the PMC commercials are most likely Airsoft imitations due to Japan's gun laws, but I don't think a tension-operated speargun is classified as a firearm), but I can't say I know anything about speargun makes and models. It looks like it's a big fake barrel surround built around a real one to hide that it isn't actually loaded, the projectile is rather obvious CGI. Evil Tim (talk) 14:06, 23 December 2012 (EST)

Phantom Pain

If you create a page, then the onus is on YOU to prove that it is eligible. You can recreate the page when you have something more. --Funkychinaman (talk) 00:38, 28 March 2013 (EDT)

Look, I'm sorry if I was unable to prove it is eligable, and that I failed that onus. However, I'm not very good at IDing weaponry. Here's a video from the Phantom Pain: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1ZQ5XBCmzs&feature=player_embedded Pokeria1 (talk) 08:53, 28 March 2013 (EDT)

Post some caps then. We can help with the IDs. --Funkychinaman (talk) 09:00, 28 March 2013 (EDT)

I'll give you the screencaps, but I can't guarantee they'll be my own. I'm also not good at doing screencaps, but I'll do the best I can when I have time. Pokeria1 (talk) 12:42, 28 March 2013 (EDT)
