    Well, there's one of five announcements out of the way, and to be expected, it's totally underwhelming. There's nowhere to go from here but up, folks!


    ...sorry, I just really can't care much at all about MGO updates unless they give me a way to boot directly into it from the XMB or download it to my PS3's HDD or something. I really don't like having to take 5 minutes booting up MGS4 before I spend another 3 booting up MGO. WAY too much work for a multiplayer mode that, while fun, was nothing more than an EXTRA.

    @Archaotic: What are you expecting? Did you really think Konaim was gonna have these massive announcements coming daily throughout the week? They even said that the announcements were mostly regarding game updates. I'd say this is a decent announcement.

    @SocraticMethod: They stated verbatim in the PR e-mail they sent out that they've got one announcement per day of the week. This is, if anything, probably the least interesting of anything they could announce.


    I'm hearing rumblings of a trophy patch (finally) and an MGS-themed Home space.

    @Advent Chaos is Selling his Wii, interested? Anyone?: Well, everything you bought/unlocked in Home is stored server-side, so if you go back you should be fine, even if you deleted the application, like I did.


    Don't take either of those as absolute fact though, it's just some rumors I've heard.

    @Archaotic: Even if they add something really good to MGO, I'm gonna have a hard time going back to it until they do something about that friggin M4. Every match I play recently just has everyone using the M4 and assault level 3 to buttrape anyone they come across. It kills the game for me.

    MGS4 was easily my favorite game of last year but I never even played MGO once. Are there still a lot of people playing? I might have to try it one of these days.

    I probably missed something somewhere along the line but didn't I hear something about the MGO servers being shutdown? I'm confused.


    Anywho, nice looking br..bikinis. I found the game itself quite hard to get into and the matches seemed too short when I played it.

    That was for MGS3, I do believe.


    If they shut down the MGO servers, hell would have no fury like the angry Sony gamers, and the internet would explode with Xbox Live payers (and no, I did not mean 'players') typing in thousands of l's, o's and l's in a repeated unending string of comments.


    Trust me. The servers aren't shutting down anytime soon.

    Do you play it, F***? (Im never really sure what to call you anymore, lol). Whats the current playerbase like in terms of size.


    Cause I used to play a lot of MGS3 MGO, and I remember after the first few months they chopped the number of servers down by like half due to nobody playing.

    a ps3 controller or something unique? I've always wsanted to try MGO with a keyboard and mouse or FragFX

    @badSamurai: MGO actually works decent with a frag FX. the only problem I have with it is the mouse tries to approximate it's position and will shift the cursor around a bit as if confused to where it's supposed to stop once you stop moving the mouse. If the frag mouse was as accurate as the standard mouse on a PC, I would play all of my FPS and 3rd PS games with it.


    No word if the latest frag fixes the mouse issues though. I know it was at e3 this year...

    i think that i was one of the few that loved MGO. it was so unlike any other online tactical game, and retained everything that made it metal gear.


    i know that this is blasphemous, but i would love to see it come to xbox live arcade, bypassing the konami id. then it'd be perfect (for me).

    @plebeianprint: get back in line dude, I have people on my friend's list that still plays MGO to this day, myself included. I took a break from infamous to play MGO earlier this week. awesome games with guys using team tactics to flank the each other, flash bangs to blind the overly aggressive, snipers (M14EBR with a silencer FTW) Shotgun whores... awesome.


    I agree 100% about how it takes what makes the MGS campaigns unique and incorporates it into the online portion. So if you know how to play MGS4, you can jump right into MGO with a minimal learning curve if any at all.
