It's been hampered by pre-order DVDs that were released without key codes as well as codes that were incomplete. It was held back by a registration process that brought Konami's servers to their knees. It was delayed a full five days longer than it was originally scheduled to be released. Yet, with all of the issues that have plagued the Metal Gear Online beta, its surprise rollout earlier this morning finally gave Metal Gear Solid fans a taste of what they can expect when the game is released in June.
IGN enlisted in the beta, jumped online, and blasted their way across the two maps to test the gameplay out.
Konami has shared an announcement on the official Metal Gear portal site stating that the online services for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will be terminated on May 31st of 2022. This only affects the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions. Both MGSV itself and its multiplayer component Metal Gear Online will be shut down on that date. Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes will also lose its network service on the same date, but this time it also affects the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of the game.
MGS4 servers were closed after only 4 years, by the way https://www.metalgearinform...
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.
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 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.
Metal Gear Survive will be the 1st Place prize at a Metal Gear Online 3 tournament and fans are furious.
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

"couple of things that need to be worked out, such as players taking a full clip of bullets to the body and not dying whereas one head shot will instantly drop them"
Agree with that, but that's why we have beta's.
Awesome videos
the graphics arent AMAZING but there some nice little things like footprints being left in the mood and the "man cannon"
But im sure we can expect a a little graphics upgrade and better balanceing in the final game
also.. can you roll on you back like in the single player gameplay vids? how do you do it
I'm a huge mgs fan, but I just had the feeling the short bit I played that mgs is best left a single player game. I obviously know it's not going to go head to head with the major multi player games, and maybe I need to give it a bit more time? I think the main problem is it seemed to be big on cooperative effort, which I think is the best way to play an online game, but the issue was no one on psn likes to really communicate. On the other hand the customization was a huge plus.
If you disagree thats fine, but leave your opinions on why please.
I love rolling around in the barrels and watching your guy throw-up. Which actually stays on the ground for a while. And what is up with the "dirty" magazine decoys. And the capture the flag is a rubber ducky.
For a beta it's pretty good. The graphics are great, just not amazing. It's hard to found out what's going on sometimes. But that's probably due to just having to playing more. I'm not a huge fan of the Bloodbath map, it's a little small. I'm sure thats what they were going for. The other map is awesome though. Fun times.
My favorite mode would probably be Capture. It's early in the beta, but I have a little more fun playing Warhawk's Capture. I know ones more stealth and the others an all out war, but on a fun level IMO Warhawk takes it here.
