So I think it was in DUST 514 that I first heard the name "Outer Heaven". If I recall they were (possibly still are) a corp in this game. I thought the name sounded cool but later thought nothing of it.
Fast forwards to the past few weeks... I have been playing Metal Gear Solid. (The great one on PS1 however not the first part of the MGS storyline) It turns out that Outer Heaven, is some kind of unit / army nation that is created by Big Boss. (The father to Solid Snake) Outer Heaven is basically the best of the best from US special forces units, Russian Spetsnaz and all sorts of others.
The story line goes a LOT further, including all of the games released, Metal Gear, Nuclear War etc.. and I'm now just finding out about it, possibly one of the best story-lines (If a little convoluted at times) that I have ever read.
I was curious if this was where the Outer Heaven corp. in Dust got there name from and if so - How are they doing in DUST right now?
I'm off to continue to learn the whole storyline of MGS as this stuff is amazing. |

Wow thanks for the extra information guys. I have just about wrapped it all up now after using wiki and sourcing more info out of the games and videos on youtube.
Its great to see it has influenced a lot of people. Its also cool to see those names, REX, RAY etc...
Its good to hear the corp is still going strong too.
Seriously - A film needs to be made about it. A flim needs to be made about EVE`s storyline also. Both have great cannon and truly deserve the time and effort it would take to be brought to the big screen.
Is it me or are the stories presented in computer games, more imaginative and more in depth than most films released these days? |

Naww.... well thank you for the truth about Outer Heaven and its leader never even having played an MGS. That makes me sad.
Yes make an Outer Heaven alliance guys! Though you have to stomp everything with a name like that - indeed.
By the way Emulators make old games better :) Its funny though as the rendered graphics look improved but the menus and CGI are still very basic and blocky...
How far technology has come since I was a kid. |
