Hey guys, I've been thinking. First off, this post has a lot of spoilers in it. Just letting you know.
Just how much of this game was planned before it was put into production? Do you remember the first MGS4 commercial?

Ok... Maybe the second trailer.
If you ask me, I think the graphics are better in this trailer than the game.
Let's analyze this. In this trailer, snake already has the eyepatch before he even meets the MkII.
He took out a pmc soldier and then took his gun. The gun didn't even have an ID lock on it! And that's a huge part of the game!
The Solid Eye has a button rather than a switch. (7:49)
This obviously takes place in Act I... Even though there are several things different. But we see snake with the syringe when in the game snake doesn't get it until act II when he meets Naomi. Plus, the symptoms for snake don't even start till the end of Act I which hasn't happened yet.
So what's your take on it guys? Why wasn't there anything planned before production started?
