MGS4 online beta thread

Can you only choke people out when you have hold of them? can't do anything like slit there throat or anything? no quick kill..?

You have to increase your knife skill and cqc skill to slit throats, best way is to use the stun knife to stun them when you have hold of them.
 
I'm really not sure about this game, as I want to say it's rubbish yet strangely I keep playing once I load it up...

A couple of questions I need answered, how do I grab hold of the opponents etc, and secondly whats the deal with eveyone flashing blue normally at the beginning of each round?

Cheers

I was the same as you at first, then the more i loaded it up the more i got to grips with it and now i love it.

To grab someone you need CQC skill equipped, then run up to the enemy and HOLD the R1 button (don't tap it), if you get it right he'll either grab em and trip em over (if you're facing em) or grab em and choke em (if you're behind em). Dont just run up to guys head on though, they'll just shoot you, try and find places where people will be unawares, such as blind drops you can stand behind or around corners works quite well too, listen for footsteps. As your CQC skill increases you get new skills, such as slitting their throats, or using them as human body shields.

The blue/red flash is the SOP, basically if you're within the flash you get linked to your teammates and can see where they are and where they're aiming - even through walls, really useful for figuring out where the enemy is. Also depending on what upgrades you or your teammates have you can share things like enemy locations via the SOP or even inject stunned opponents with hacker nanobots to hack into their SOP and see everything they see.

These tips will help me beat you by a bigger margin.

Sod all this CQC crap. Headshots.

Stabbing people while they're grabbed requires a higher CQC skill, I just read someone on another forum saying the CQC is very similar to MGS3 but you need a higher CQC skill to use some of the moves. I've barely played MGS3 (crime) so don't know if this is accurate.
 
Good games this afternoon .... sorry I had to go.

Will be hosting some matches from 10 / 10.30pm.


Thanks all .... and I accepted those who wanted onto the clan.
 
Some feedback that I'll post to Kojima if I find out how...
  • Swap triangle button with X. Eg. So that wall hugging is done by X like Gears and Unchartered etc.
  • Shooting is still awkward. You have to press L1 to aim before you can fire, and then you have to press triangle to go into 1st person. If you insist on this system then atleast use R3 instead of triangle.
  • Game needs a sprint function. It'll make the game more exciting imo; you can chase people or you can run away.
  • Custom music implementation.
  • XMB friends integration needed: Chat/inviting/etc. Scrap your ingame friends system :)
  • For the love of women, use PSN ids.
  • Ingame text chat takes up 1/3 screen... they should just be a line of text like the quick commands.
  • Make character appearance changeable after creation.
  • Ability to select items (L2) whilst holding someone.
  • Reduce lag...
  • Push-to-talk voice com.
  • Controlling man cannon direction is a little clumsy.
