Collectable Ranger's Dog Tags

well in my opinion, god no. I hate to go through a game over and over again just to find that itsy-bitsy one last collectable just for an achievement. Like the flag collecting in Ac. it's so tiresome.

Only if they add something to the story like the manuscripts in Alan Wake and the signs(the Truth) in Assasins's Creed 2, I think it's worth to add collectables.

 

Meh, I think it'd be too distracting, and not too interesting either.

 

I absolutely hate collectibles. Unless they serve a purpose; collecting X number of tags unlocks gameplay tweaks that increase the replay value such as Big Heads Mode or Mirror Mode etc. And if you really want achievements or trophies, they could give us 5GS/Bronze for completing the game in Mirror Mode

 

Only if it is roped into the narrative rather than a complete side-task. If there were only a few so as to not break the gameplay, and for each of them to tell a story...like if there were recordings found with certain bodies that depicted their harrowing final moments. I could see something like that, but I wouldn't want it to deter me from the story.

 

Okey if they make it something like Pip said it migh be interesting, otherwise I am negative to it.

 

Agreed to what Pip314 and LagTagBag says. Like in Prototype, where you find people now and then that you can consume to regain memories and such. Just of course not in the same way in Metro.

 

I agree with what's being said. I wouldn't mind having such things as long as they were connected to the story in one way or another, or had some other use besides achievements. I don't mind collectibles as an option (even the meaningless ones), but I think it would be more appropriate if they had a deeper connection with the world of Metro. Perhaps interesting extracts from the books? I think that would be a pretty awesome idea - it would be a nice bit of fan service for me and anyone else who read the books, but also a way to expand the knowledge of those who have only played the previous game.

 

that.

 

What is a Mirror Mode?

 

Commonly found in racing games, Mirror Mode mirrors or flips the tracks/game world - and some cases, slightly alters them - so that it almost feels like a different experience. More recently I believe it was the Uncharted games that implemented this feature. It's a lot of fun!

 

i would only like tags from rangers that get killed beside you not random things all over the place with artyom sayin im sorry or something each time then you could turn them in to miller for mgrs just like the bos tags could be traded for caps in fo3

 

Then you wouldn't be searching for them would you? All of the deaths would be scripted and you would just go and pick them up. There would be no challenge in that, no fun. It's like "oh look. ulman died. yay! I got another collectible." I'd rather have fun searching for them.

 

i do not want a colectable i want a little thing that gives bullets

 

I want the dog tags to be both a collectible and able to pick up off of random bodies. I like the idea of being able to hand them in to Bounty Hunters and get MGRs or they could be part of side quests. For example someone's friend has died and they want you to collect their dog tags.

 

Multiplayer hasn't been fully scrapped. There is a possibility it will come out in a free DLC. But yeah, I'm just hoping for some sort of collectible/turn in minigame in Last Light.

 

I don't want any collectibles unless they actually give you something or if it has something to do with the plot. The closest things to collectibles in Metro 2033 were the bullets and the Ranger Stashes, and you actually got something. It should be like that, or if you pick up journals or journal entries.

I have a love/hate relationship with collectibles. I think "darn it, now I got collect all these stupid little things." But when I get one, I think "gotcha!" I like to be a completionist only if it isn't frustratingly tedious.
