I found the new MGO super ridiculous. First off, I had to download an update that took a little over an hour. Then, installing. After that, I thought I was finally going to get a game online like good old MGO from MGS3 but no! Here came the customizing your character, which I didn't mind too much. What got to me was the stupid stats that play a role now. I felt as if I was playing WWE "create a wrestler" mode and modifying their stats. *bleep*, all I wanted to do was play an online game like the good old days.

Anyways, what are the pros of the NEW MGO? I can't find none since I only played one quick TDM thanks to the long 2 hour process I went through before playing.

Swag are you little daft .. MGO for MGS4 has been out over a year now, of course there will be a couple of updates, what did you expect..

The customization is a good thing , it lets your character stand out from the rest, the reward points you get can buy new clothing for them. it's very good.

The skill level ups are a good idea and they only go to level 3 anyway, as you mainly upgrade the ones you mainly use for your style of play and for the game type your playing, the higher the level the less recoil, quicker reloading, so the longer you spend on the game the better you should get.. keeps you interested in the game as your trying to upgrade, it's like an added incentive..

MGO is a very good game once you have a little bit of a practice on it (apart from the deathloopers and laggers) .

Dont just do TDM, there a lot game types, I prefer Rescue and Team sneak.

you only to get to add 2 or 3 of the skill to your character at anyone time, you can switch but it isn't like if you master everything you can use all the skills at the same time. you got 4 slots, some skills at level 3 take 3 slots like CQC level3 takes 3 slots, but Nade throwing skill only takes up 1 slot for it at level 3, etc

I didn't know what to expect. I just bought my PS3 two weeks ago with MGS4 being my first and 1 out of 2 games.

Man, all I remember is seeing a gang of weapons and choosing which one to upgrade or something like that.

I don't care about upgrading and whether the game is realistic when it comes to how many skills you're good at. It's MGS, where everything is possible in the series. All I wanted to do was play a good TDM without all the hassle like the good ole days.

It takes a lot of getting used too at first...

For TDM, i set my skills as either assault rifle 2 with Runner 2 or Runner 1 Assault 1 and sniper 1 depending on the map,


With Team sneak, i normally have Runner 2, CQC 1 and Hand Gun 1


Auto Aiming is for noobs tbh, and so is deathlooping.

He basically said "Pros don't autoaim, noob". Really unnecessary.

Anyway, I haven't had a chance to play, but I am really looking forward to the customisation feature of MGO the most.

It was meant to be a shot at those "pros" who say that sort of thing on MGO.

Sarcasm is a lost art nowadays.

when i go on metal gear online, it just quiuts the game and goes to the ps3 hompeage what can i do

What is deathlooping?

That was apart of the sarcasm...(as in, they can't spell)>_<

I hate pro players. You never get any other game with high ranked players abusing the game in general. Plus laggers always get away with it because nobody says yes to kicking!

There is too much of a gap between noob and pro in MGO. I would say i have my moments of being pro, but my moments of being total crap. I think i'll just play Portable Ops online... LMAO

And as for comparing WWE's customisable features. MGO is nothing like like it!

The skills add strategy to the game mechanics. If you are that dumb that you can't choose which skills you want to excel at because you are in such a rush to shoot people in the face, then go play COD.

Half of the high levels on MGO are only that high due to them deathlooping. They get double the amount of kill that they should have which means there stats rise greatly, they win more matches and there level go up. Scum of mgo..

I was at level 15 the other day due to my own skill, which is great considering the amount of deathloopers there are on the European servers.

if it wasn't for the deathloopers I'd be level 16 or 17 at least.

Half the deathloopers deathloop when they realise my team are beating them.
