Get ready to see a bunch of crappy wanna-be Egoraptor submissions :'(

metal gear awsome was freaken halarious what are you talking about

Man, FBIpolux didn't say that Egoraptor is bad, just that no one would copy his style.
FBIpol, i hope you will change your mind about the collab when it will be relased, because i'm sure that the Wanna-Be-Egoraptor-But-I-M-Only-A-Fiftee n-Nooob authors will be all discarded and that the collab will be great.

Also a screenshot :

damn ... i'd love to be in this thing, but i just read about it yesterday.

now i'm all sad n stuff. could somebody plz comfort me a bit, or sooth my
pain by extending the deadline ? :)

Not to complaint ( I know they are busy busy busy) but will we be informed if we are in the collab only when it is released?

Is Egoraptor going to be in the collab?
JohnnyUtah responds:
yes, he made one

-- M1KES says:
How many submitions you thinking of putting together for the collab?
JohnnyUtah responds:
we received something like 230 submissions...
we got a pile of 50 right now that are looking pretty good...not sure of the final number yet.

-- Oobar says:
Are you guys PMing people who made it into the collab?
Or will we have to wait till it comes out?
JohnnyUtah responds:
we'll probably post a list of "winners" soon.
it might be a long list.

-- SardonicSamurai says:
So, better or worse than the Transformers Collab?
JohnnyUtah responds:
I'm actually really impressed. A hell of alot of good ones came in the last few days. This collab is gonna be one of the best things ever up put up on this site.

thanks Br1! I take it this is from utahs main page?

Man, I reeeeaaally hope I get in. I kinda forgot all about it a few days after sending mine in, and then lots of stuff happened in my life, so the collab kinda worked it's way out of my mind. Glad to hear the submissions significantly improved in quality.

Can't freaking wait.

Wow, with those responses, I'm really excited about this collab. I hope one of my submissions made it in.

Me too liz. Me too.

I bet out of those 50, Depending on the length, it'll be wittled down to around 40 or so, so even if we made it into the top pile right now, we may get shaved off. so Good luck to everyone and I'll see you when They announce the entrents. :D

Say there are two really good submissions by one guy, and a pretty damn good one by another guy, and only enough room for one more part in the collab. The first guy's are just a little bit better than the second guy's, but he's already got at least one part in. Will the second guy get shafted from the collab so the first guy can have two slightly better parts in it, or is this more about the community aspect, with a broader variety of artists being the final goal?

you're putting too much thought into this.

don't worry, if they are good, they'll get in, there's no limit to submissions (i think).
If my part makes it in, It'll be the first non-series related thing i've put on newgrounds! I don't even care about winning, I just want to be a part of it. :P

I don't even care about winning, I just want to be a part of it. :P

i actually WAS hoping to win something..

but now its just a dream..

I wouldn't imagine that they'd let one guy have more than one submission at the expense of the guy just below him, they'd probably just let in them both. I mean, if there would be that much debate about whether or not one certain submission gets in compared to another one, then they're both most likely pretty awesome to feel the need to try and make the final cut. I mean, either one could be good enough to be featured in the collab.

Sorry for the delay people.

we have quite a few good ones. this thing could EASILY be half an hour or longer...

It'll be out by the 10th or before... It'll be worth it.

We all need to sit down here and make a final list. We also need to decide if we're going to compile all those that were really close into a second movie.

The plan is to release a list beforehand, we should have that out very soon.

Glad you decided to update us Utah.

A list would be nice though... I'm really worried about my entry

I hope you guys get to submit that second movie.. the more.. the better.
And it wont degrade the overall quality of the movie cause its in a diferent flash movie.

Holy shit. A half an hour?! Geez, now that's fucking long! Have there been any other movies that have lasted that long? And I thought a 10 minute flash movie was long. Wasn't Decline of Video Gaming 3 about that long?

Oh man, I am so excited for this.

I still want to see the half assed ones too, haha

Make an alt and put all the shitty ones together, and then submit with the alt

Half an hour of consistent Metal Gear gags?
That would be so damn awesome.

The only thing I can think of that compares to that is the Minushi series, but that is, after all, seperated into increments.

Sounds like this is going to be absolutely insane.

Oh man, it sounds just like how the MGS games have the re-released editions of the games like MGS: Integral Missions, MGS2: Substance and MGS3: Subsistence. Maybe the alternate version could be called something like Newgrounds MGS Collab: Fission Mailed or some crazy name like that.

" This is Madness! " - Leonidas about the Metal Gear Collab
"No." - Krinkels to Leonidas

awesome update
Such amount of work put in a game-related flash movies proves that MGS is one of teh best vg series ever once again.

HELLZ YEAH!

HALF AN HOUR??

THATS LIKE A TV SHOW!

coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool!

:hope i get in...

Also, why not make this collab in 2 parts and submit them as 2 different movies?
That would be somewhat original I think, 'coz I've never seen/participated in something like this here on NG.
The first one will include the best entries, and the second those decent ones which do not deserve to be in the first. Well, you get the idea.
That would be great, because I'm sure there were such authors who spent some days working day and night on their movies and did their best, but wasn't good enough because there such mastodonts who have like 4-5 years of experience in Flash.
It's still better to see them in one flash-movie here than scattered on Deviant Art or Sheezy Art
You can even classify them in collab like "MGS", "MGS3: Teh Snake Eater", "MGS Miscelanious" and so on...
