As long as you focus your pistoling skills for evil I will accept you as my apprentice. Pistols make a good holdout weapon, but they also serve as an excellent griefing weapon, even more so the tranq pistol. Nothing demoralizes a team like being prone asleep beside two other downed compatriots, with some douche doing laps around them in a box.MiamiWesker said:

Yah cause I saw 2.40 was out so I'm going to update first. I'll put it back up once I'm done updating.
2.40 makes MGO's mail obsolete as we'll be able to message each other on the PSN from within a game instead of having to leave the game to send mail.
On that note, my PSN is striketh
Add me! I expect at least 10 invites when I come back from work (or not)

NOOO music playback during MGO... WTF one of the only reasons i wanted 2.40. FUCK you KOJIMA, FUCK YOU.
It varies by game. SSHD = Smooth Warhawk & MGO = Stuttering Stanley1stStrike said:

Humm..I don't have many PSN games. I got PAIN and velocity bowling but they aren't really enough to hold my interest. It's all about MGO right now for me..and I'm really looking forward to the new maps.
It drives me nuts when we play a game mode on something like urban assault and then the host has another game mode on the exact same map right after. I need variety!
And..so far xmb shows up everywhere for me when I hit the PS button.

Which locations from MGS4 would you guys like to see as downloadable maps in MGO? I'd kill for a Shadow Moses map and South American one.
Also, if they're gonna rip maps from MGS4, they should be free
BlockBastard said:
I agree with both those. I've been dying for a map with some greenery on it. I wanna crawl through the woods and go ape shit crazy sniping where nobody can see me.
And yes, free updates..though they might charge for something else. If they ever add anything worth while to the konami store I'd have no problem buying them. All we've got right now are character slots and emote messages though..not really worth the money.
I'd like to see new costumes/skins

Sorry. I hate to be the person who seems to be ruining the experience for other people
BeautifulMemory said:
No, you're relatively easy to deal with most of the time..there's a couple guys in the gaff clan that are much more annoying to play against.
Also, the market place...meeeh. We have enough urban warfare environments..I'm not against adding it in, but at least add in the wilderness portion of south america first. The mansion area or the power station are both two great spots that could make for some fun times.

It's a lot cheaper than I expected it to be. How much is the Codec expansion pack in Japan?duckroll said:
Indeed said:
I *think* it's a setting where you can only kill with a headshot. I'll post more information when I have it.
Edit: Okay here's what's been posted on 2ch so far.
The 3 maps are Shadow Moses, Meiling's Ship and MGS1 Heliport. (OMG WUT)
Team Sneaking is the only new MODE. It has two teams, a sneaking team and a defending team. The sneaking team can use stealth camo.
The headshot kill is a mode SETTING. When it is turned on, you can only kill a player with a headshot.
duckroll said:
I don't know how I feel about that..if that's the case anyway. I mean, it's already ridicuously easy to get headshots as it is in MGO anyway so it really wouldn't be that different from normal.
Team Sneaking sounds much more interesting. I bet that'll have a frustrating side to it too though. Just like with rescue you'll have guys that don't know what the hell they're doing and ruin the game for your team.
Watching longmeat and yungmike stand on the red team spawn today talking on mics like, "dude i'm standing on the red spot, what the hell? how do i win" was both funny and painful at the same time =\
Oh and on a side note, I joined a random game and got called a fag and this guy kept on trying to get me kicked because I whooped his ass. Horrible spelling and grammar too. It was pretty funny. He was like, "1stStrike get out of here faGg nobody wants you here" and everyone was like.."what's wrong with this guy?!"
Weirdos =\

Team Sneaking was spotlighted in the strategy guide, but the maps are news to me. Shadow Moses? FUCK. YES.
KONAMI: TAKE MY MONEY.
Oh yes. There shall be blood. And I'm sure the headshot-kill setting will feel right at home for Noz and Wesker. :lol1stStrike said:

Yea, I can't wait. Unless the attacking team has some thermal goggles or something I can totally see me destroying just about everyone with the stealth camo. It's bad enough that I snipe already, but an invisible sniper will really piss some people off.

According to the guide:1stStrike said:
Team Sneaking
The attacking team is equipped with stealth camo and must capture an objective, while the defending team protects the target.
Btw, the Stealth Camo is an item like the box or drum (like in single player). Other than the one NVG per map, I don't think the other team is gonna get anything special to combat the stealth stuff. Infact, it looks almost like Rescue; but with the invisibility factor.

Indeed. I wonder if it would be akin to Snake's Sneaking Missions and actually be a negative if you go the 'kill everybody' route. Hmm...1stStrike said:I think I will be playing a lot of team sneaking matches. Huge kill count boost, confirmed
*Takes the SVD out of strike's hand and gives him a Mosin instead.*
There. Problem Solved.:lol
Btw, Invisible or not, the GA-KO stays on top your head so I'd imagine you'd be tracked by radar.
You have to make it inside of MGO's emblem creator thing. Speaking of which, I STILL cannot edit Fox Unit's emblem. And I know it's definitely been a week by now :/jonhuz said:
Ephemeris said:
So, you would rather have a giant man-pile of tranq'd bodies while i run up and knife you all instead?
It just sounds like you have to actually reach the target not capture it and take it anywhere..it might be more akin to the sneaking missions from MGS3's online mode where snake just had to get to a certain point without dying. Though, the stealth camo had a battery that ran out fairly quickly so you had to use it sparingly.

I wonder if when they release this shit as a standalone download MGS4 owners can grab it for free to launch from XMB?
JTran2003 said:
Yea, MGO is really brutal at first. You get in thinking it's going to be just like the single player and you're going to wtfpwn (I had just come from beating it on the boss extreme too) and then..BLAM you're getting owned.
Edit: I see you edited your post..but I beat you to the punch so..I've stolen your woooords.
