Our friend DjMizuhara finally managed to connect to the Metal Gear Online beta and recorded this first gameplay video! He's really enjoying the game so far.
Update: Second video added. DjMizuhara got a tad more experience than before, and it shows.
Loakum Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum By FAR, the upcoming Game of Thrones King’s Road was the Game of the Show! It plays like God of War Ragnarok! :) (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (> 3 Months ago)
Driftwood @Loakum: enjoy, the one Sony sent us will be there on launch day. Coverage will follow asap. (> 3 Months ago)

Driftwood Another (French) livestream today at 2:30 CEST but you're welcome to drop by and speak English. I will gladly answer in English when I get a chance to catch a breath. :) (> 3 Months ago)
Driftwood GSY is getting some nice content at 3 pm CEST with our July podcast and some videos of the Deus Ex Mankind Divided preview build. :) (> 3 Months ago)

Commented on 2008-04-25 21:00:01The auto aim thing is really annoying sometimes, it'll lock onto someone nowhere near your cursor or else it wont lock on at all even if the guy is only a couple of ft away.
Also, yes it is fps slowdown not lag, you can visibly see the fps dip then go back to normal had it happen quite often in the last couple of games.

Commented on 2008-04-25 21:23:25 In reply to KORNdogThe game is japanese on top notch, its not for everyone and western gamers will have some difficault time to adjust but this is what Japs like in terms of shooting...I guess.
But I have been playing it for nearly 4 hours now and its a blast!
I was going for a man canon once and some jerk killed me in the air while I had almost no health left, but i was so awesome to see it.
What I want to know is, they said we can customize our weapons, and in training you get to add grips, scopes...etc. do we have to level up so they can be added?
Ps. This game is tons of fun and I could see myself playing it with more weapons, more gear and more add-on.
What is gonna be a problem is, how much is Konami gonna shell out on the servers to keep them up and running when the game is out.

so from what i can tell, customisations and weapons in general are game based. unlike cod4 where it goes from one game to another. in this you have to earn points, which earns weapons, which earns customisations. i like it personally, feels kinda like counterstrike.
Commented on 2008-04-26 02:47:13I've heard from a few beta friends that many people are trying to play it like Call of Duty 4. If you start playing it like that, you're already playing it the wrong way, and you're going to start losing matches once more of the original and dedicated MGO players start playing this game when it's released.
By the way Sath, MGO servers were kept up since MGS 3, they just moved to the psp game portable ops and now they're moving it back to a console. I think they'll last a very long time.

Commented on 2008-04-26 03:08:29The controls are more complex than they need to be, but there isn't any additional depth in this game over many other online FPS... Seems like server side hit detection without client prediction, I haven't played a game that the lag could kill this badly since before QuakeWorld.
The graphics really do get choppy on some levels, and the graphics themselves aren't too impressive.
If this was a free MP side of MGS4 I wouldn't mind but I won't be paying for this...

Commented on 2008-04-26 10:06:29 In reply to ContraYeah I played a few matches with Drebin points were each kill earns you "money" and then you keep adding customization to your weapon of choice, but other than that you can't customize it...I guess its a good thing, makes the game balanced between lvl low and lvl high players.
But I have been having a blast playing it, I will probably get the full on game when it arrives, just tons of fun.
One thing I don't like about the game is its region locked, so you can play it across different regions.
I wanted to play with Phaethon but he is in US and I am in EU so it wasent possible.
Maybe its a beta thing or something.
Another thing is that they should make the crosshair a bit smaller and more precise so you know where on the body you are gonna hit, like headshots.
It's too big and you have to find middle of that huge circle do gain perfect shots on each bullets, but once you get, sweet!
