    Default Live Metal Gear Online Gameplay

    Guys, there is a room in Otacon streaming live Metal Gear Online gameplay all over the world. Now, I was just in there and in a few minutes there will be maintenance so it probably won't be up. But before and probably after is all live.


    So, what do you guys think about the gameplay in Metal Gear Online?

    Metal Gear Online is great! I can understand why it wouldnt be everyones cup of tea but for me its probably one of the best online games I have ever played. Now if Konami could just sort out their damn MGO shop I would be a very happy bunny!

    Metal Gear Online isn't so great. MGS4's gameplay isn't suited for online play. Plus Konami are ripping you off by having to buy extra characters, which for a game which isn't great to begin with, it just feels like a scam.

    Although MGS4 didn't even need online so it's still a nice extra.

    I play it a lot, its fun but has its issues. Firstly, there are way too many team death matches. The people should put more variety into it.

    Also, the free version only has a few maps, which get old quite quickly. But the upgraded version aint worth the cash IMO.

    But other than that, its very addictive.

    In all honesty, it wanted me to register for a second ID so I just didn't bother with it. xD

    ^ yeah, it's signup was unnecessarily prolonged.

    I'll have to check out that room, I think MGO is great, I've gotten my Assault Rifle skill to level 3. As far as gameplay goes, it really emulates alot of stuff in Metal Gear well. Pulling off a CQC grab-and use as a human shield on a couple of enemies is exhilarating. The cardboard box is a surprisingly effective technique. There's so many different play styles and it's really fun once you start getting the hang of it.

    Yeah, MGO is terrible. It's impossible to even get the damn thing running. And when you finally do, thats when the problems start. MGS4 controls were not made for online shooting. The user base is retarded and can't realize that you're supposed to utilize stealth. And a few of the skills are retardedly powerful (Snpier+ 3 LOL). And then Konami wants to charge me just to have a second character? Forget it.

    Its not bad, theres a lot of people on there who really get on my nerves though, like when i first started i went in the beginner rooms and theres still people who wipe you out constantly before you even get a chance to pull the trigger

    If I was like Cloud I don't think I would have taken that test.

    It's alright, but just cannot compare to CoD4 online, so I still play that

    I enjoy MGO once in a while. I'm not that much of a die-hard online gamer so it's great for just a couple of hours a week. I love the maps, some of them are really diverse like Urban Ultimatum for example. I usually play Team Sneak (very original game mode imo) or Team Deathmatch.

    MGO is a perfect example of why Japanese developers know little to nothing about online games.

    Team sneak is the best.

    My abilities are usually:

    Sixth sense (lv2)
    Assault Rifle (lv2) - lvl 3 takes up too much space
    CQC (lv1)

    And I have no idea how good I am, because it automatches people. Only problem is, half the time I'm number one since Im paired up against people who are too easy. Anyway, its my first online game, so it might actually be lame compared to others. But it did get pretty good reviews (in the 80s)

    I don't think they necessarily did anything wrong with MGO itself but the registration process was god awful. I couldn't even get into the beta because it was so screwed up. Other than that, the issues with MGO are more to do with the style of gameplay that MGS uses rather than how they turned it into an online game. Nice they gave it a shot but it was never, ever going to work.

    My skills are (no levels yet, don't play that much):

    Sniper+, lvl1
    Runner, lvl 1
    Megalomania (spelling? it's the one where you can still see enemies you've attacked for a couple of seconds.)
    Assault rifle+, lvl 1

    I tend to switch between snipers and assault rifles quite a lot.

    Anyway, I do think some of the typical MGS elements in MGO work well. The other day I rescued a teammate who was being kept in a CQC chokehold by giving the enemy a headshot from a roof. Never done that in an online game before.
