Metal Gear Solid V will have a chicken hat that makes the game easier

In a recent three hour stream of Metal Gear Solid V, there was one particular tidbit that might have passed some people over — the Chicken Hat. Apparently when Phantom Pain drops there will be a special hat that allows people to essentially “Super Guide” themselves after dying a bunch.

Enemies will be slower in general and the game will be easier while wearing it. This will no doubt help newcomers acclimate, as the franchise has always been a source of frustration for some folks. I’ve seen a few people get mad at the chicken hat already and I just have to ask “why?” I’m sure people won’t think less of you if you use the hat once or twice.
