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

Peace Walker HD's online was region free. So there's still some hope for MGO3.

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.

P2P servers, no clans, not explicitly stated but there probably isn't text chat

Looks like we're going to get a nice selection of music.

IT says you can pre-game chat between both teams, presumably this means text chat because having that with only pre-canned messages would be completely useless.

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.

lmao so all the teleport lag at tgs is actually representative of how it will be and not the scripted trailer they showed.

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.

Welp, guess MGS5 is gonna stay uninstalled. 78 hours was enough, anyhow.

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 really really hope you can take you skills and equipment to the singleplayer..
There is a shield bash and Dual Wielding in the Multiplayer ... man I want these in the singleplayer

It's fiiiiiiiine. I'm used to Payday 2 and your co-op buddies in that game are basically a bunch of Creepy Watsons.
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.
