Metal Gear Online 3 Hands-On Preview (PSLS)

"On the surface, it’s a third-person team deathmatch, but with the fine tuning Metal Gear has become known for, it becomes a lot more than that. Naturally, there’s the basic idea that killing people who aren’t on your team is a good thing to do. Verily. If you find yourself in a tight spot without time to be tactical, yes, indeed, shoot the bad guys and hope you get ‘em, because that’s good for your team.

"But a kill puts a bounty on your head; it makes you worth more to the other team. You’ll become a higher priority target, because if someone kills you, his/her team reaps greater reward. So that sounds like getting punished for being too awesome, right? But shut up, I’m not done." -PSLS

So much deeper than just a team deathmatch. Really cool.

just_looken3138d ago

Its mgo 4 not 3.

knifefight3137d ago

With that logic its MGO5.

just_looken3137d ago (Edited 3137d ago )

true #5 sense there were 2 on psp.

And logic? its the truth like how gta 5 was the second gta online but 0 people mention gtaiv now.

Every mgo sense ps3 has been crap or very unbalanced. I was just pointing out this will be there 4 or i should say 5th time at online.

5 times yet only 1 was good.

There pos fob system already shows this one will be bad.

"5 times yet only 1 was good."

MGO1 on the PS2 was amazing.

MGO2 on PS3 was even better.

DEEBO3137d ago (Edited 3137d ago )

I like FOB.you have to protect those resources!

I'm trying to build nuke right now and i will fire it at someone's FOB if they let me.

I hope MGS3O ties into my mother base.

81BX3137d ago

I dislike the whole protecting ur fob from others. Just seems like a pain i dont need in my life. A question??? How do i upgrade the Fulton to carry tri cons and vehicles? Thanks

DEEBO3137d ago

Just keep using it and upgrades/blueprints.

81BX3137d ago

Ok thanks i saw something about needing a engineer or something.

MysticStrummer3137d ago

"i saw something about needing a engineer or something"

Keep extracting lots of soldiers and you will usually have the ones you need for R&D, unless they're troublemakers and you get rid of them… lol

MGS4 servers were closed after only 4 years, by the way https://www.metalgearinform...

Welshy965d ago

Don't remind me, my favourite online game of all time :(

Giblet_Head965d ago

It's been brought back with RPCS3, if you're curious to get back into it.

I played this game recently. This is a problem because infiltrating online bases is by FAR the best way to get money.

During the actual game i made a few mill doing story missions, and procuring equipment, but with the online wallet, I had 100m+ in a few hours.

Not to mention you'd need to create online FOBs to max your gear.

Was hoping there would be a next gen patch to make the idroid a little less laggy. Really, a masterpiece of a game.

SDuck965d ago

And that's why online elements in single player games will never be welcomed by me

MasterChief3624965d ago

Remember that the services for Phantom Pain on Xbox One, PS4 and PC are still going to be online. But it is only a matter of time, I suppose.

GhostofHorizon965d ago

Are there any trophies or achievements tied to online?

Dark_Overlord965d ago

Actually 3, Intruder, Deterrence and Disarmament. You have to connect to the online to finish building the Nuke and get the trophy, meaning you can't disarm it either without online.

MetroidFREAK21965d ago

I still need to play these games. I have the PS3 versions

franwex965d ago

The online component is really helpful with online connectivity. You get minerals and stuff while you sleep to build up your base.

MetroidFREAK21965d ago

I don't think I'll get to it before the online service is shut down

Metal Gear Online is back, thanks to custom servers

We’ve seen custom servers bring loads of online PC games back from the dead, and emulation has provided a way for plenty of old console games to live on modern hardware. You probably see where this is going. Yes, a group of enterprising fans have put together custom servers to bring back the PlayStation 3’s take on Metal Gear Online, commonly known as Metal Gear Online 2.

I play MGO 1 still on my Original PS2 still... Online of course

franwex1018d ago

What?
I had no idea we could still play this!

aaronaton1018d ago (Edited 1018d ago )

I play this and I would just say the skill gap is as large as ever. Headshots are key, and most players seems to be able to quickscope anyone from anywhere. This was always a thing on PS3 but it's even more pronounced due to higher frames rates on the rpcs3.

It's the toughest online shooter I've played in a long long time.

What more can Kojima do with this franchise when the saga is pretty much over?

The plot is pretty much wrapped up and Kojima has expressed many times he'd like to put the IP to rest. Anymore titles in the Snake saga would just turn Metal Gear into a zombie franchise..........oh wait!

-Foxtrot2402d ago (Edited 2402d ago )

It's a pre order code aswell

I mean it's bad enough it's Survive but not even a Collectors Edition of it or something

Salt in wound. They're right aswell the other prizes are better

GamesMaster19822401d ago

Shame i would have it but the online in mgo3 is boring as fuck.

BlaqMagiq12400d ago

Wow Konami is punishing whoever wins first place? #FucKonami
