Why I Still Like Metal Gear Online 2+ Years Later | MGO Review Rewind
Posted by Tosh in Featured, Metal Gear Online, Metal Gear Solid 4, Reviews on February 17th, 2011
To start off, please do NOT come here just to complain about the Konami ID. I don’t want to hear it. It’s easy to create one and have the game save it for you, that way you never have to enter it again. Could they have tied it to a PSN ID? Sure, but they didn’t, so either create a Konami ID and play the game or not and miss out on a great game. If you’re having trouble updating the game, choose HTTP download and just wait for a bit. Last update took me 40 mins – 1 hour. Also make sure you forward port 5730 TCP & UDP.
New Patch For Metal Gear Online Incoming
Posted by Sakinah in Metal Gear Online, Metal Gear Solid 4, PS3 on February 8th, 2011
Still playing Metal Gear Solid Online? If so, Konami has released a new patch for the MMO. The update adds adjustments to Drebin Points for weapons, weapon parameters, skill parameters, and skills for unique characters ( i.e Raiden and Vamp ). Player Character movement has been increased overall plus “Idle Kicks” have been implemented for Auto Matching.
Updates for the background music were also added which will include more tracks from Metal Gear Solid titles. The patch will be able to detect fraudulent network connections as well. If I didn’t trade my copy of MGS4 in I’d still be playing MGO on occassion. It’s probably for the best though, since I was pretty terrible at playing the game online.

Konami ID’s Going Away
Posted by Tosh in Metal Gear Online, Pro Evolution Soccer 2010, PS3 on July 23rd, 2009
Yes, Konami ID’s are going away. Starting with the release of Pro Evolution Soccer 2010. What about games that already use the ID? Konami has no plans to patch old games.
Most popular game to use the Konami ID is Metal Gear Online. If your letting the Konami ID stop you from even trying the game. You are missing out. Good news if there is a Metal Gear Online 2 it should be Konami ID free.
MGS4 Surprise Week / Metal Gear Online Updates & Free Bikinis
Posted by Tosh in Metal Gear Online, Metal Gear Solid 4 on June 16th, 2009
MGO has been updated to 1.33, it has a lot of bug fixes you can see the whole list here. It says “Damage for direct throws has been tuned.” Wonder if that means you can’t knock them out with one throw anymore with CQC-EX. Then the automatic CQC counter will only work if CQC’ed from the front. I prefer that actually, CQC-EX was to overpowered.
All this week Konami will have surprises for the one year anniversary of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. First surprise is free bikinis for those that have purchased the GENE expansion pack. Video of that in action below.
Another new surprise is a new stage, called the Icebound Inferno, which is also known as the “MGS4′s windy blizzard Shadow Moses stage.” Sounds like a great stage, I gotta try that. Then it seems like Snake will be selectable in more ways.
Wonder what other surprises Konami will have this week.
Metal Gear Online Race Mission & Patriot Feature
Posted by Tosh in Metal Gear Online, Metal Gear Solid 4 on May 8th, 2009
These new updates are available to everyone, not just those who purchased SCENE. There will be a new game mode called Race Mission, which goes live on May 12th. Details are below:
This mode pits two teams against each other, with the Blue Team searching for and protecting the KEROTAN target, and the Red Team searching for and protecting the GA-KO target. Each time a team passes a check point with its target in hand, a new checkpoint will be generated. If a team drops its target and the target is not retrieved within a set period of time, the target’s position will be reset and the checkpoint will change.
Sounds fun to me, but it will depend how well your team helps protect the carrier of the KEROTAN/GA-KO. This mode will force teamwork that’s for sure, which is good. The other new feature is called the “Patriot” which is available to all players, starting on May 26th. I wonder what the recoil is like on the gun. I hope I’m lucky enough to get selected for a week.
This feature will select a few lucky players every week starting from the 26th, and give them exclusive access to a 5.56mm Hand Rifle with infinite ammunition and no reload. Players will have access to these unique “Patriot” features until the next ranking update. You’d better watch out when a “Patriot” joins your game!
I’m amazed the support Metal Gear Online is getting, they have added a lot of features since it’s release. Plus they have something in store for the one year anniversary of Metal Gear Solid 4. Mmm, wonder what it could be.
Just a reminder you can purchase the MGO Expansion packs with the PlayStation Network Wallet now.
