I have a couple of questions:

Is there any way to heal yourself?
What gun and attachments do you use?

I've been using M4 with grip, and red dot.
Click to expand...

1) Id like to know that too =/. Dont think thats possible though.
2) Seeing that with a SVD i have the best kill/death ratio im sticking to it. Nearly lvl 3 with sniper rifles too =).

How exactly do you get a M4 with grip and red dot? Only in DrebinPoint games right?

Yeah.

I was pretty sure you couldn't heal yourself, it cuts down on epic killing sprees.

So that means im stuck with M4 vs SVD matches for the rest of my mgo life :S?

Has anyone else tried that? hold select to turn the mic on in game? i wasn't aware of that.

Yeah, that's...that's how you use the mic. It's not open mic in the game. Hold select and you'll see "VOICE CHAT ON" come up.

Same here! I would talk and no one would hear me. Arg.

I'm loving MGO so far. I think that it plays better then the Beta. Now I seem to be getting more kills and any time I die I know I screwed up. Maybe it's because there are still a lot of noobs playing.

... speaking of which box hiding has been VERY effective. Those bastards never knew what hit 'em!

So pissed that I missed getting into the GAF clan. Take a break for a few hours and bam it's full.

At the moment, yes. But as time goes on, people will be aware that DP games are more fun so they will become the norm.

ugh, i did MUCH better in the beta than the official retail MGO. i think i need to mess with my sensitivitity. i'm getting the drop on lots of people only to spray all over the damn place and alert them to my presence.

i did the box on TDM last night and two guys strolled right past me. I popped out and opened fire but both spun and killed me. another time i was up on some crates and the same two guys snuck by below. i waited til i had clear shots of their backs and let loose. didn't kill anyone and they turned and hid below me. i finally took out one before the other spotted me.

can't hit the broad side of the barn lately. in the beta i was getting headshots like crazy. maybe i'm just rusty.

Is it just me or has the game been balanced since the BETA? It seems to take less shots to the torso to kill. I used to have to unload a whole clip to the torso, but not it seems to be just several bullets for an assault rifle.

Alot of aspects have been tweaked. Apparently even the movement speed has been altered.

I just hope you can unlock more clothing options/ some of the rebel stuff.

That and they say MGS4 characters will show up in MGO eventually, so that should be intresting.

I have my good games and bad games. The important thing is to aim for the head or neck. Headshots take your opponent down instantly while chest shots can take days. You may want to change your aim sensetivity so that it's more steady.

I'm scared that the added character modes will cost money. That's not my main concern but the fact that the modes may not be down loadable from the PS Store and instead only from the MGO shop. That would fracture the community really badly.

How do you take in game pics?
Click to expand...

a) You need to equip the Camera, and turn it on
b) Either using a second controller (R1) or USB Keyboard (Print Screen) you can save pictures. It removes the main HUD

It saves to the MGO Photo Album, and then you export each individually.

Also sometimes its good to leave the rifles on full auto, but just tap fire from far away. That way you dont have to waste time switching firing modes and risk getting shot.

It'd be cool if some of that stuff was an exclusive prize via tournament, or beating Kojipro..or something. Winning would unlock it for the entire clan.

i'll be on tonight about 10-11PM EST. I'll look for the neogaf otacon room and if not i'll try to set one up (if i can resolve my game hosting problem)

re: hosting a game, did anyone half to change the default upload rate? I'm on a business class DSL line and I should have enough upload to host. I need to double check which ports i have open on my router too.

Do you have to level up CQC before you can slit throats online? BEcause twice now I have grabbed someone and hit triangle and i just let them go..

does anyone remember who originally drew up the foxhound-looking logo that incorporated the neogaf colors on their computer?

Lost all credibility.
How do I level up anyway? Is it based on how many points I earn, how many hours I play, or how often I use a certain skill?

If you are talking about Skill leveling, then it depends on how often you use a certain skill. If you have selected e.g. Sniper+ as your skill, you have to get kills via Sniper.
