Cant wait to play it to completion and still not know what to was about.
I'm excited. Maybe I will have another game to get hyped this year other than Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3.
While playing you can come across other dead players that were out for deliveries. Can either take their stuff for yourself, use your baby to bring them back from the goo or "rope" them. By roping them, they become a shell of their former self but are able to help you fight in exchange that you finish their deliveries. You also have to be careful about being greedy as you have to carry that shit around. No magic compartment in your ass holding invisible items. There's a balance.
Yup, I'm loving the look of this game so far, can't wait to see more.
Hasn't Koji talked about something like "create the rope" in regards to the game design philosophy of this game versus other stuff hes made.
And I'll take some gameplay but it's not needed show me some weird shit

I don't think I've ever seen Kojima build anticipation around a trailer release like this for any game, and I think it would be slightly jading if he were to continue doing it for future trailers if their were to be ones. And given we've already had 5 and this is the 6th and think that should be it till we have the release trailer a few days/weeks before it comes out. So given all that I'm hoping this one has the release window, even if it's just "Coming 2020" or "2021", whatever. Just some clarity.
I'm more excited about this than almost anything else. I know Phantom Pain isn't popular around here, but the gameplay and controls are rightly lauded as being basically the best in any third-person videogame, so the idea of grafting that onto some kind of crate-carrying open world adventure is enough to make me giddy.
Sounds to me like some sort of social, collaborative aspect as other posters have mentioned. "The rope" might refer to support or guidance, like a rope shared by a group of mountaineers or rock-climbers, for example. So creating the rope might mean being that support for other players, offering help and guidance or working together to solve problems
I found it!
"Most of your tools in action games are sticks," Kojima continued. "You punch or you shoot or you kick. The communication is always through these 'sticks.' In [Death Stranding], I want people to be connected not through sticks, but through what would be the equivalent of ropes… But of course you will be able to use the sticks too."

IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!!!!! I hope this is the start of a solid info drip from now until release.
Well I mean there are ropes everywhere in the DS trailers :P Let's see what it means gameplay-wise.

Ropes. Strands. Connections.
Must be some connection to other players. Maybe the baby is a connection to another player and when you die your character is taken over by another player and you respawn as another Sam in another dimension, before played by another player.
He might be voicing some samurai in GoT as well, we don't know ;)
And you see the baby carrier in that teaser from Kojima as well (and the handcuffs lighting up), so it probably has something to do with the 'rope creation'.

We're all puppets on a string being manipulated by Kojima!
Well we know Sam is "coming back" when the creatures get/kill (!) him. So thanks to the "rope" he can come back. Let's see how that works.
Sounds like ramblings of a madman. Which means it's likely to be true :p
Based on the thing I posted a few posts back of Kojima talking about creating a rope for gameplay back in 2017, it still sounds like players collaborating like on PT to me
Aki Saito in December: "Oh My God....the game is...is...nothing I thought it was!"

The trailer will be 45 seconds long and end with an announcement of the E3 live panel.
Or be really long like the last one and Kojima will do a breakdown of it at the E3 panel.

Oh man. Oh man. Oh man.
That has been my theory too however I don't think the baby has anything to do with it. It is confirmed that the baby we have seen in all of the trailers so far is the same baby so I doubt it's anything like the baby becomes another player or something.
My guess is when you die other players will have to 'pull' you out of the naked purgatory world so you can resume your playthrough of the game. Dead players interacting with the ghostly figures the living players avoid, to help them, and living players bringing dead ones back to life.
