MGS4 online beta thread

All hardware struggles with realtime shadows. To do perfect ones is incredibly hard. You need top notch hardware for it.

Fair enough. I was thinking back to CS:S/BF2 on my old 8800GT when things looked glorious, inc. shadows. :)

They were good old days.
 
hahaha

this is going to make or break the game
why cant they just get it right!

today, i went to sleep, then watched goonies, then had some tea
and i was on 15%

that is bs

im going back to trying to complete some other games before gta4 arrives

this is pointless
 
Calling it a night myself.

Signed in but every time you press "Start Game" you get :

"Disconnected from the network.
Exiting the game. (2007:FFFFFF9D)"

if you have the same get some sleep :)

Right when I try enter my Konami ID it asks for the Konami ID then a password - thing is it says the password can only contain numbers. Are we meant to make one up there and then?
 
My game ID has apparently been locked temporarily due to me putting in the wrong password 3 times. I wouldn't have put in the wrong password three times if it didn't tell me the correct password was the wrong one in the first place and if I didn't have to rush through that konami registration process :rolleyes:

I think this has got to be the most annoying beta I've tried to play, hopefully they'll learn from this.
 
Just set up a Konami ID, took all of 5 minutes. Is there anything else I need to do? I've left it until now to sort it as I've been getting annoyed seeing all the hassle everyone else has had to go through, never mind going through it myself.

EDIT

Just getting the patch now. For a start, wtf is the deal with having to patch it straight away? And why does seemingly every update/patch involving the PS3 have to be so ****ing huge?

Well i got up early for work so i could give this a try and i'm getting the same error as everyone else. Well done Konami! :\
 
Yeah just saw that, its seems like they are waiting to stabilise the JPN servers first then they will then start the others when ready. It looks like later today it may be up and running but no news yet apart from the beta looks like its been extended 4 days till the 11th May.
 
Oh well. I think I'll just keep repeating the "Start" screen. The gun sounds comes back with avengence :cool:

Say, where is Inoshishi these days?
 
Info at last (not great though)

We would like to thank all players for their keen interest in taking part in the beta test.
However, we regret to inform you that due to extraordinary levels of traffic from all around the globe, we have been unable to run the service to the level we expected.
As a temporary measure, we will be suspending the European public beta test and restart it once we stabilize our server.
We would like to apologize for all inconveniences as well as confusion caused.

We would like to add that due to the above reasons, we will be making the following changes to the schedule:

1) Suspend beta test: As of 21/04/2008 08:00(CEST)
2) Restart date: TBA. We will be making another announcement on 22/04/2008 08:00(CEST)
3) Beta Test closure: This will now be on 11/05/2008 at 24:00(CEST) rather than 06/05/2008 at 24:00(CEST)

Sounds like the Halo 3 beta all again! When it was delayed a day and extended by 4, but that was 5 months before release not 2, im guessing all the people logging in via proxys to the JPN/Euro beta cant help much. In the end i guess this is the first lesson learned from the beta NEED MORE SERVERS!! It makes sense to get one running at least or else the beta will just be worthless if no one can login anywhere! Still its a annoying and i hope tomorrows announcement will not be another "We'll keep you posted" type thing.
