TrustedReviews: Metal Gear Online

MGO undoubtedly has potential. It's a solid online action game, the Team Sneak and Sneak modes have a lot of promise, and the more Konami can tap the love people feel for the series, by adding familiar characters or environments through downloadable expansions, the stronger it will be. All the same, it's hard not to feel a slight sense of disappointment.

MGO is good, but anyone expecting an online experience as superb as that of Halo 3 or CoD4 - or Splinter Cell: Double Agent if you want another point of comparison - won't find it here quite yet. That verdict might not stand forever, but for now while this is a fine way to squeeze more value out of MGS4 if you have it, it's not a reason to buy it if you haven't done so already.

Wow. I played splinter cell double agent and online mode is trash compared to this. As far as i remember there was only one mode in Splinter cell double agent. I will write a review when i have the time but MGO is an excellent experience for someone looking to try something new

dro5793d ago

mgo i dont even play it...instead i just play the game over again rather than play online, it let me down a lot because its to slow and it does not have that fun factor that u have when playing cod4.if they add a patch to make the online play faster and and a run button mgo will be a lot more fun.

JVIDICAN5793d ago

you get speed by using upgrades in that area
give it another chance, play with some people here on fridays its fun as hell ;)

sonarus5793d ago

Yes the game is slow but that doesn't mean its not as much fun. MGO is miles ahead of double agent its not even funny. USe upgrades to increase your speed if you want to go faster

socomnick5793d ago

Miles ahead of double agent maybe. Ahead or Chaos theory no way in frigging hell.

sonarus5793d ago

I played chaos theory online coop and that was it. I didn't play any of their deathmatch type stuff. But MGO is miles ahead of double agent. I won't compare coop with multiplayer because its not the same.

I'm so pissed because of the online problems I have with MGO lately. Hey I have been doing very well, but never seem to get over level 5, do i have to master many skills to rank up?

dro5793d ago (Edited 5793d ago )

how do u upgrade ? i still dont know....every time i give it another chance the pace of the speed just lets me down

ParadoxicalAssassin5793d ago

i upgraded my runner skill, and I run pretty fast compared to before. Now snipers get a hard time trying to get a headshot on me.

I think he wanted to say Chaos Theory.

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

Welshy1002d ago

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

Giblet_Head1002d 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.

SDuck1002d ago

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

MasterChief36241002d 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.

GhostofHorizon1002d ago

Are there any trophies or achievements tied to online?

GhostofHorizon1002d ago

Well... that's unfortunate.

Dark_Overlord1002d 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.

MetroidFREAK211002d ago

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

franwex1002d ago

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

MetroidFREAK211002d 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

franwex1054d ago

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

aaronaton1054d ago (Edited 1054d 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!

-Foxtrot2438d ago (Edited 2438d 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

GamesMaster19822438d ago

Shame i would have it but the online in mgo3 is boring as fuck.

BlaqMagiq12437d ago

Wow Konami is punishing whoever wins first place? #FucKonami
