MGS4 online beta thread

Lol i'm not too bothered tbh, I actually have a life and things to do outside of my computer.

Its a beta yes, but why is it that other betas have had no trouble with rolling out on the day they were meant to? Surely it would have been the decent thing to stagger the release, or even warn people before hand that you might not be able to play it due to demand.

Whatever it is, Konami have screwed up, not too hard to see that tbh
 
Can you still get this if you hadn't signed up before? I haven't downloaded it nor updated nor signed up for an ID.

Yeah i would believe so, I cant see a reason why they wouldnt let you download the client after the beta had started?

You need to go to PS store and download the MGO beta client - this will need updating once you installed it. To update the client, you need to start the game and follow on screen prompts

Then the hard part - get a konami id from konami

for a konami id use this guide - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17866673
 
That's because there's too many whining girls in your line of sight.

But I'm not standing in the losers area?

Oh really? And I thought there were people playing it? Don't forget it's an incredibly ambitious project and there are sure to be niggling issues, especially where bandwidth is concerned. It's an all or nothing thing, so why don't you cut them some frigging slack? You are not king of the ****** universe and you will be getting something great for free. I'm sure they are all working round the clock for your ungrateful buttocks.

My advice to all of you is calm down, keep some perspective, and in many cases get a damn life. This beta will be out soon, and if you made loads of plans for it already then somewhere you forget what the word beta means or you're just an idiot. Judging from the ridiculously over the top posts on the thread, it looks more like the latter to me.

It's great of you to throw out personal insults and everything too. Get off your high horse buddy.
 
As mentioned before, you would have thought that konami would have had the servers up and running, but as a beta tester i think we have already helped konami to show that what they have at the moment server wise is inadequate? and the sign up server also needs some work, so ineffect even the ppl who are getting somewhat animated have already helped konami, which is all we beta tester can hope to do.
 
I dont know if this has been posted yet:

We would like to add that due to the above reasons, we will be making the following changes to the schedule:
1) Start date: Planned for 04/25/2008 24:00(PDT). While the start is planned for the weekend, it may change due to unforseen circumstances.
3) Beta Test closure: This will now be on 05/11/2008 at 24:00(PDT) rather than 05/05/2008 at 24:00(PDT)

Four days delay :(

i am so glad i never bought a ps3 now
lots of people told me to get one because mgs was coming
dodged that bullet

This is only the beta, the final release date is just under 2 months away, this gives them a taster of demand and helps them iron a few bugs out before release. Also most people want to play MGS for the SP not MP.
 
eh ? lol ha ha, are you serious mate ?, MGS is'nt even out yet, you do know that don't you ?, this is a beta of the MGS online, most people are waiting for MGS4.

IMPORTANT NOTICE for all
METAL GEAR ONLINE PREMIERE BETA players

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 deferring the European public beta test and start 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) Start date: Planned for 04/25/2008 24:00(PDT). While the start is planned for the weekend, it may change due to unforseen circumstances.

Not much to say. We get a look in at the weekend by which time most people will be preparing for some GTA 4 instead.
