Metal Gear Online 3 |OT| The Missing Link

Seems to be a corner shooting bug.

I aim the crosshairs away from the corner a bit



But any closer to the corner and it aims at the corner itself, the area between the two screens is impossible to aim at.

That's deliberate. It's because the point at which the bullet comes out is from the tip of the gun, not the center of your view. Most games do center view, so it's usually not noticeable.

helped a brotha out on multiple separate occasions!
Wait....what? I have digital version as well, what does this mean?
You can't mix and match the dlc & base game regions. They have to match. Since he bought the US version of the game he has to wait for the US store to put up the US DLC.

Not sure that is true, since you can already aim at far better angles in 3rd person than first person, even though gun is at the same place.

But I should have been able to shoot at that angle, I first noticed when pressed against the container, as I walked away the 'aimless' zone stayed as it was, despite getting a better angle that should have allowed aiming there.

Do you remember MGO2 or MGSV's first two weeks?
Yeah man, MGO2 was a fucking disgrace, frankly. Not as bad as GTAO though.

Konami LA should have their shit together - maybe it will be working soon though? It's too early to write this off.

Dang, 21k precious metals to equip your security team with both versions of NVG, one can see ppl with sneaking suits up to lvl 4. Wonder if they patched the resource farming on missions 12.

Edit: Also, didn't they say your GMP limit would be greatly increased? 250k doesn't seem like a "great" increase to me.

That's a lot of planned maintenance in the coming days :/

Give an explicit example, nothing you're describing is contrary to what I'm describing.

Here's an easier test. Use a weapon with a laser sight so you can more easily visualize the gun's trajectory and instead of moving, pan the view over something that would obstruct it. Now you'll see the laser abruptly switch from the background to the foreground and the secondary crosshair which obviously wasn't accidently implemented to display identically the same thing. When the flip happens, when you go into first person now you'll also see you're now aiming at the thing obstructing the view.

You weren't kidding when you said "missing link".

He mentioned something interesting. Konami is pursuing new research. He claims that what they're doing in MGO is the missing piece... a weapon to surpass server failure and someone having a bout of amnesia in North America!

It doesn't matter even if you have it. When you select MGO you get an error message ;_;

Edit: And it's maintenance message again lol
I can enter MGO but you can't do the tutorial (because of maintenance).. You just walk around a forest :S

I'm wondering if the in-game development times will count down if we're playing MGO, this new update brought a load of newly ranked items - Some for security staff.

Some were 7* and take over 3 hours to develop. I just got through around 40k Precious Resources making them all.

25 minutes left.... And then hopefully the servers hold up.

They won't. Anyone else feel a strange deja vu with stuff like this?


Like, online game launch---->works for 5 minutes---> goes down--->everyone gets pissed--->game doesn't officially work for 1 or 2 weeks---> company apologizes for the inconvenience

Am I supposed to be able to do things like a female avatar before I'm logged into in-game servers? Because I can't find any option.

Yea, I really hope this is the case. I have 99% complete and I guess the last thing I need is to
build and destroy a nuke. I hear it takes up to 24 hours of
or more to even build the damn thing, of actually being on the game. If that timer doesn't progress while i'm on MGO, it's gonna suck. I don't even know if my resources are being processed for sitting in the ACC right now.

Whose bright idea was it to have the
nuke
take that long?

Exact same thing happened to me, I got 100% and the last trophy was this right here. 24 hours in-game time when I've already done everything the game has to offer.
