New MGO Mode Now Playable

"A new Metal Gear Online mode has made its way onto the game's servers. Taking inspiration from the existing "Sneaking Mode", which sees Snake use Octocamo to collect Dog-Tags from warring teams, this mode is a battle of two teams with different gear."

Sounds really good, they certainly come up with some intriguing multiplayer ideas. I love the Sneaking Mode when you play as Snake.

No ones more at home on the Battlefield.... Snaaaaaaaake!!!

Tean Headshot is gonna be hit and miss for me, I aint too good at headshots on MGO. I seem to get them by sheer luck xD

[Fishy Fingers]

Use the FPS mode, pick your shoots carefully and use short controlled bursts on the trigger.

With a little practice you be popping heads left, right and centre ;)

[Johnny Cullen]

I seem to be doing that anyways nowadays xD

But thanks for the advice anyways =D

I've got the Eagle title for MGO (headshot master), but I really don't think there's much you can do aside from aiming for the head and emptying your clip. I always use the M4 or that other default assault rifle, and I never use the first-person view unless I've got a sniper rifle, which is rare.

And to think you get this Gem MGO with MGS4
Had some good fun with MGO
Gonna tackle Boss Exterme first before dedicating anymore time to MGO !!

Got everthing else on the lower levels now for The Boss Face Camo and The Patriot

[ThatCanadianGuy]

Im gonna start working at it too.

I hope that rumor about the new map pack is true. The game needs more maps.

[Palodios]

Much agreed. I'm bored out of my mind with the current ones already.

...to feature a better hit model than the one that has been used. That is, rather than making the headshot lethal and just about everywhere else needing an entire clip to take someone out. They should have used a hit model where you could shoot someone in the leg to slow them down, or in the arm to get them switch to the other arm for aiming, carrying the weapon, etc.

That would be fantastic to be able to wound your enemy and watch him try drag himself out of harms way as you line him up for the final headshot.

As it stands the hit model makes it darn near impossible for new comers to get into the game, especially when there is a forced handicap until players skill-up.

LOL I HAVE BAD AIM AND NOW YOU CAN'T MOVEZZZZZZ!!!!

"You can now also select “Headshots Only” for every game mode except Team Sneaking. However, take note, you’ll die if you kill somebody by any other method."

WTF!? This game is cool but a player dies if they don't get a perfect headshot!? Someone could easily move to the side and their teammate could get hit instead of who you were aiming at, but you end up dying.

[RecSpec]

Well, um, pick your shots carefully. Or just don't play that mode.

I wonder if you still explode when you don't HS someone, that was hilarious.

[Shenzilbur]

So that was what it was. The maintenance today booted me out halfway through a game. Sounds good.

[ChrisGTR1]

that team mode sounds terrible. one super stealth team vs a normal team? dosent sound balanced.

Its actually not that hard to spot invisible enemies, they still have a shadow and you can also see their breath still, I killed snake like 20 times already trust me, its very easy.
