What differences does Snake have to a regular soldier?
Click to expand...

the game refers to his skills as "Legendary Hero" instead of the usual ass. mastery, lock-on mastery etc

As I said, he can do the things he can do in the singleplayer, like hiding in trash cans, drum cans, he can EVEN OCTOCAMO!!!!!!!!

Its so awesome camoflaging as the ground's texture and popping nearby soldiers who have NO IDEA where you are :lol

Wow I'm telling you, I am so fucking hyped for MGS4 now that I have gotten a taster of what Snake is like to control. He will be an ass master to end all ass masters.

I am so frustrated with this game to the point I want to throw my dualshock at my tv. It's been a long time since I've felt this way about a videogame. I DO NOT want to spend an entire magazine on some guys face/upper body and come away with a death. I also don't want to see people flying across the screen 4 seconds after a grenade has exploded. Pure trash.

Is it accurate to assume that my bullshit stats will be wiped clean for the retail version? I don't want this broken games stats saved that's for damn sure.

Luckily it's a beta... but it still irks me seeing my efforts go to waste because of poor hit detection or whatever the fuck the problem is. Konami, a face is above the neck. When shot there, it's a head shot. When shot there with a full clip, the guy is really dead. I don't want to see the guy live and walking around after he killed me with one shot.... thanks.

Isn't the map from the pics just posted from the original MGO? It looks familiar.
Click to expand...

It looks similar to the battlefield shown in the 15 minute gameplay demo, but I haven't played MGO1 so I'm not sure.

MGS4 will be GOTY.

3. Stealth isn't that useful. This is a Metal Gear Solid game. The fights shouldn't all devolve into random shootouts like every other shooter. This one will be the hardest to fix.
Click to expand...



Whoa, stealth is VERY useful in the game. Especially in a capture game or base game. Somewhat in team deathmatch as well. Boxes are very handy since this time they are intersperced around the map so you never know whats a real box and whats fake. Same with playing dead, or moving slowly to not have your footsteps heard.

Crawling/flipping over and shooting works pretty well for me, especially during base matches.

EDIT: The hell? new map AND mode?!
EDIT 2 : Oh snap...

Damn, I wish I were playing this, but I've got to finish up my end of the year classwork. Pretty much got 3 assignments left to do and then I'm playing some GTA4/MGSO in between studying for finals. Posting here is bad enough for me, let alone going through this thread. Seeing Snake is making me want to finish up quick though, time to soldier on.

This. Plus how do you use an f'ing bluetooth headset in this game?
Click to expand...

Register it in your PS3 first (sure you knew that already).
Turn its output lvl to 5 in the XMB (or whatever the max is).
Go in game and visit the options menu.
Turn all communication audio outputs to USB/Bluetooth.
Turn all output/input volumes to max/10 or whatever.

Break out.

15 mb to go. almost done.

Ah. You rike it?! :lol

Also to the guy wasting bullets, just tap-shoot if you're on full auto with more guns and aim relatively high. Either that or equip a gun mastery equivalent to your favorite weapon.

EDIT: I just realized some of the complaints in this topic amount to the same as complaints about battle rifles being too strong/common, snipers owning in TF2, or air strikes and helicopters in CoD 4.

Damn it... I dont think im gonna go on tonight. Probably get some Mario Kart single player ( dont wanna go online yet since I havent raced all tracks in 50cc yet) and other Wii gameplay in. Need to be well rested for pre-midnight Monday. I know if I jump into Mass Effect, GT5:p or MGO then i'll be up all night long.
