YOU'RE A SQUID NOW

Splatoon on notice.
 
I thought that it was confirmed that there wouldn't be a regional lock?

With the netcode it probably won't make much difference playing vs someone across the street or across the pond :p

Any whisperings of the beta? I assumed after we heard nothing at TGS its not happenning, at least for consoles, maybe PC'll get a surprise beta when it launches on consoles
lol yeah right :(

Have they confirmed that the framerate in MGO is locked at 60 just like the singleplayer?

Thought I saw some streams of MGO that had some very noticeable dips in framerate.

I mean, I'd be all about a gather weapons (randomly) strewn about on site, type deal. Or nothing but tranq pistols. Gotta tranq, then choke out/kill or whatever, but that leaves you open. I'm for how nutty all this can get, but I love the idea of it being all about stealth for a mode or two. Just the basics.

Ah, okay. Nothing like that in MGO1 or MGO2, although I recall the first had some heavy weapons strewn about. You tended to select weaponry before a mission a la Counterstrike, although I imagine we'll be unlocking stuff in MGO3.
 
I was bit worry about the connection on MGO3 after dealing with players in FOB. Now I know MGO3 is going to play like shit.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
I played an Enforcer on Black Site at TGS and really enjoyed it. It felt good. The pacing was very Metal Gear.

P2P...

So enjoy it until Konami pulls the plug in 4 years (if we're lucky). And latency is going to suck just like previous MGOs
 
Is P2P harder to emulate/simulate? Say if MGSV loses support for MGO3, but on PC talented people want to bring it back by hacking?

I guess they can't simulate servers? But then it seems less tied down by proprietary systems and filling the game using a hack and external matchmaker seems possible.

I really don't know though. Can anyone with knowledge of this kind of thing answer?

Obviously the P2P is bad for consistent connections, but wasn't Halo that way until 4 or something? Anyways, if it prevents a hack to sustain the community after MGO3 gets shut down, that'd suck massively.

This could be the thing that gets me to play and enjoy online multiplayer finally. I hope the stealthy approach is actually useful and that it doesn't devolve into Call of Duty or Gears of War type stuff. I'm not too interested in the shooty bang bang aspect of this, but I really wanna see if my stealth skills are up to par against others. That being said, I'm on PC so this will probably just be riddled with hackers and cheaters anyway so I probably shouldn't even get too excited :/

No clans and no textchat because they want to use PS4s capabilites to its maximum.. What a fu***** joke. Removing the most popular features = nextgen? gg kornami

I hope the playerbases aren't locked regionally. Crap that eu couldn't play with US gafbros last time around

I'd be content if the playerbase didn't turn into a shitfest of elitism in a month like in MGS4, locked or not. Hope there's less tools available for idiots to cut out legit but lowranking players this time.

Played the game yesterday, fun but servers sucks also me and my friends never managed to form a team , we were switchet to teams randomly.

The sniper class sucks
