heh...was quite fun. although the only round i didnt like was the snake round, are you invisible in that round or what? i dont get it. Turniphead got me in a few knife attacks he has a tendancy to creep up on me a lot

Nice try with the barrel Inazuma

when you see the grey ring around you your octocamo is active and no one can see you (unless they stand still within that ring ?) it activates when you're kneeling or lying / pressed up against something and stays active if you move slowly.

I hated being snake earlier, I just didnt know what to do... other than get knife raped repeatedly while another guy stood and watched. The new map is ace though, hopefully the first of many! I will be online later, Im a sloth apparently becuase of the amount of headshots I have taken... though I havent seen many wildlife documentarys where sloths get shot in the face

i was uncloaked pretty much 99% of the time so i never saw a mini robot lol

i can see the full release of MGO will be quite big, especially with the clans feature built it. i just feel there could be a couple more weapons, but thats just my opinion.

I read that there is over 70 weapons in MGS4, most will probably make it to MGO unless its some kinda uber weapon. What i want is metal gear vs metal gear duels :cool:

There are also more weapons if you use drebin mode, i want to try me with an RPG vs that poxy lil mark2!!

I just hid in a cardboard box, someone ran past me then I got out the box and knifed him.

That was the single coolest thing I have ever done.

I can beat that, once on dead rising I stuck a bucket over a zombie's head and pelted him with frozen peas.
That's going to take some beating imo.

Ah, but maybe they're counting the variations of each weapon (silencer, scope, etc..). I hope not though.

a bit of a bummer if they are counting all the weapon accessories. :/ it was quite a good few games before. seems to take ages to level up the skillls

lol.

fun games earlier

anyone noticed that the game doesnt really feel laggy but kills take quite a few seconds to register? hope that gets fixed in the final release!

other than that i think its pretty class

No mate check out part of the hands on preview from early April

Speaking of guns, Metal Gear Solid 4's arsenal options are already setting new standards. The game includes over 70 unique firearms, with an array of pistols, sub-machineguns, rifles, shotguns, and far, far more. Gun modifications are another bright spot in MGS4. Through a sleek 3D interface, we outfitted a basic M4 assault rifle with a laser sight, red-dot scope, flashlight, under-barrel grenade launcher (shotgun also available), plus a silencer. That's five upgrades attached to one gun -- astonishing! It's a minor miracle that the aging Snake is able to even heft that bulky, do-it-all firearm, let alone shoulder and fire it. In another realistic touch, you can set automatic weapons to single-shot, triple burst, and full-auto modes

Nice
