CVG: Metal Gear Online Preview

CVG writes:

"Metal Gear Online is an interesting one. It has the stealthy core of the single-player game - the controls, levels littered with walls, small crevices and the odd cardboard box - but up against human AI, the style can constantly changes depending on who you're up against."

"It's brilliant when you catch an opponent in the leg with a tranquiliser shot - sometimes without them realising. You watch as, ten seconds later, they fall to the floor, unable to move. All he can do is watch as you stroll over and either put a cap in his brain".

Thats what i love about mgs how many online games let you tranquilize enemies

I Hp Its More Tactical Than Say Call Of Duty. I Want To Be Part Of A Team Not A One Man Army Which is What Most People do In COD 4.

This will open new ways of shamming your opposition. You could tranq a guy / gal... wait till they helplessly fall asleep. Then BAMM!! You start T-Baggin the hell out of them, right before stabbing them up, and or stun-knifing them to put them back under.

The possibilities are endless.

Anyone else wondering what the sh!t the human catapult thing is for?

MGS4 servers were closed after only 4 years, by the way https://www.metalgearinform...

Welshy1004d ago

Don't remind me, my favourite online game of all time :(

Giblet_Head1004d ago

It's been brought back with RPCS3, if you're curious to get back into it.

I played this game recently. This is a problem because infiltrating online bases is by FAR the best way to get money.

During the actual game i made a few mill doing story missions, and procuring equipment, but with the online wallet, I had 100m+ in a few hours.

Not to mention you'd need to create online FOBs to max your gear.

Was hoping there would be a next gen patch to make the idroid a little less laggy. Really, a masterpiece of a game.

SDuck1004d ago

And that's why online elements in single player games will never be welcomed by me

MasterChief36241004d ago

Remember that the services for Phantom Pain on Xbox One, PS4 and PC are still going to be online. But it is only a matter of time, I suppose.

GhostofHorizon1004d ago

Are there any trophies or achievements tied to online?

GhostofHorizon1004d ago

Well... that's unfortunate.

Dark_Overlord1004d ago

Actually 3, Intruder, Deterrence and Disarmament. You have to connect to the online to finish building the Nuke and get the trophy, meaning you can't disarm it either without online.

MetroidFREAK211004d ago

I still need to play these games. I have the PS3 versions

franwex1003d ago

The online component is really helpful with online connectivity. You get minerals and stuff while you sleep to build up your base.

MetroidFREAK211003d ago

I don't think I'll get to it before the online service is shut down

Metal Gear Online is back, thanks to custom servers

We’ve seen custom servers bring loads of online PC games back from the dead, and emulation has provided a way for plenty of old console games to live on modern hardware. You probably see where this is going. Yes, a group of enterprising fans have put together custom servers to bring back the PlayStation 3’s take on Metal Gear Online, commonly known as Metal Gear Online 2.

I play MGO 1 still on my Original PS2 still... Online of course

franwex1056d ago

What?
I had no idea we could still play this!

aaronaton1056d ago (Edited 1056d ago )

I play this and I would just say the skill gap is as large as ever. Headshots are key, and most players seems to be able to quickscope anyone from anywhere. This was always a thing on PS3 but it's even more pronounced due to higher frames rates on the rpcs3.

It's the toughest online shooter I've played in a long long time.

What more can Kojima do with this franchise when the saga is pretty much over?

The plot is pretty much wrapped up and Kojima has expressed many times he'd like to put the IP to rest. Anymore titles in the Snake saga would just turn Metal Gear into a zombie franchise..........oh wait!

-Foxtrot2440d ago (Edited 2440d ago )

It's a pre order code aswell

I mean it's bad enough it's Survive but not even a Collectors Edition of it or something

Salt in wound. They're right aswell the other prizes are better

GamesMaster19822439d ago

BlaqMagiq12439d ago

Wow Konami is punishing whoever wins first place? #FucKonami
