WaspUnit is the current EU clan right? Do you need to have played for a while first or is it just ok to join?
Team Sneaking sounds cool, I wonder how crap I'll beI don't have a headset btw, my psn tag is: starlitgundan
Just join, indeed seems to be in the game all the time anyways so you'll be one of us in no time. What's your caracter's name? So I can put you on the list.
The description of those emblems doesn't really tell me how to get them, I guess a "just play and eventually you get them" attitude is necessary.

Oh most definitely. Like shooting fish in the barrel. Problem is, some people sit in one place perfectly still thinking you can't see them.. despite the fact there's some goggles on my face.
Unless you play like Beat Crusader and try to be a little offensive while being stealthy, a good player with the ENVG will easily give you the business.

I haven't made one yet, I will do tonight after I get home, I forgot after I patched it all up the other day. I forgot it doesn't go by PSN or Game ID, I'm used to just having my gamertag used, only got my PS3 two weeks ago for MGS4, hence no headset, none of my friends have a PS3, so I wasn't really planning to go online, but this seems intriguing :lolIlparazzo said:
Thought I should post here as I've been let into the WaspUnit (thanks!)

I planned to finish MGS4 before playing MGO, but after having withdrawal symptoms from the beta, I couldn't wait...
Not that I'm any good, but it's about the first online game I've still enjoyed even when being continuously killed :lol

Added you on PSN. Do yourself a favor and finish mgs4 before really getting into MGO.
First ive seen some people talking about the story in some games (including me) and second you probably wont be able to get back into mgs4 as soon as you really get into mgo (me again).
bovo said:
You have been added to the list.
Hey Noz, you should link to the list on the OP to make things easier for everyone.
Also, people you should add me to your PSN friends list, my ps3 is feeling lonely with just Indeed there, and you don't want my ps3 to be lonely do you?
Look at it! The kitty is sad because you won't add me!
I'm loving team sneak so far! It's pretty awesome. However, yea, as other said it's definitely not something you want to play with people that don't understand the stealth camo/the object of being "stealthy".
I'm really enjoying it though so I have setup a team sneak server.
rosemary, no password (for now), all team sneak all the time baby.

@Ilparazzo: The lonely kitten
Just applied.
@ilanna
I'm also going to add you, if you don't mind.
Anyway is somebody else in EU GAF interested in another Strategy Meeting, the first one was more or less a success. So another one of those meetings probably wouldn't be so bad. I'm going schedule it for tomorrow or Sunday, if it doesn't fit into your schedule please tell me your schedules so we can plan effectively.

team sneak is SO my game type.

Tried team sneaking for a bit, a bit weird. The sneaking team feels so underpowered. Knife 3 with CQC would be totally badass in this mode but I am no where close to having knife 3. A sleep mine option would have been nice.

Didn't really enjoy teamsneak tbh, the fact that the knife and gun are visible makes it alot harder for the team sneaking.
I know I didn't have any problems spotting the other team members when they were sneaking.

Yeah, killing the other team is so easy. I was 4 for 4 all heatshots in one defense match.

Had a small bit of fun with Indeed and co last night,
I wasn't on for too long, had played with NinjaVanish for a few hours beforehand.
I think I'm getting better at it, not a huge fan of the DP system though.

i think grenades should be banned from team Sne games. and maybe if you wanna really gimp the other team make it only pistols. i mean they can get the NVG. i really like but i always play sneaky anyway, and im not getting pounded with HS from across the map from automatic spray. so everything i could compain about before is gone.
That was really brutal, the one where we all died really fast I was hiding somewhere which wasn't immediately obvious but still gave me quick access to people who wandered by. But the random non-gaffer was just standing out in the open near me, baddie came up behind us both and i wasn't able to tranq in time1stStrike said:
edit: so now that I've lost my eagle, what emblem should I go for? :lol

Ok, made my character now, Darkflight, just applied.Ilparazzo said:
If in NA apply to FrogUnit, I'm trying to keep some space open. Be sure to include your gaf handle in your applicationLAMBO said:
Done, right at the top. Thanks again for maintaining the list.Ilparazzo said:
It is, unfortunately I lack any sense of stealth. And the ENVG rush/whores make it hard to hunt people down. At least for meMiamiWesker said:
Hooray, my ps3 isn't so lonely anymore
You have been added to the list, so have you Ilanna (you really like foxes don't you?) and dazed as well.
EDIT: Oh my god! I'm in the OP! I'm famous! Huzzah! This is a huge breakthrough for a guy that's been in this forum about a year and before MGO got here only posted about 5 times
Found a new title in the community page:

I can't understand your problem. You erased your user and now you are trying to sign in to the PSN with another user using the ID you used in the user you erased and it isn't working?
Cause if that's the issue then I do not know what to say since that worked for me.

gah seems to be a bug in the XMB. If you delete a user, then recreate one, instead of giving you the option to create a new PSN account, it gives you the option to sign in. Thus, using my details, i sign in, but it wont stick because i'm using a new user. You have to logout as the user then log in again for it to allow you to associate your PSN id via recovery option in the PSN id creation stuff.
I've gotten round it now. Thank fuck. Pain in the cunt to sort all this shennanigans out :<
noz does about as well in team sneak as i expected
It's really hard to find a team with enough patience for the sneaking aspect of it. Most people just gun it and run all over crazily. Sometimes that does actually work though. I've kamikaze'd a few matches and managed to win it. But it usually doesn't work out that way.
I wanna do a match with jason and shinz..i think we'd have a pretty good thing going on. It always kills me how I spend all this time sneaking up to a target and then someone gets discovered. And then I have my meltdown, noz
Or I meticulously set traps so that when I'm fleeing they'll run into my magazines..and instead, the nearest teammate runs into them. I'm just like..wtf D:
Overall, very fun. But how well you do is more dependent on your team in this mode than any other mode. And some people are..frustrating to play with

Not my fault, for the most part it was someone else ahead of me getting shot, me going visible and getting slaughtered. When I did get my sneak on I'd take out my dude. I definitely have a lot of room for improvement though :lol1stStrike said:noz does about as well in team sneak as i expected

What the hell is up with you guys and making the teams unbalanced? Seriously, what the hell? I mean, some random-ass stranger doing it, okay, whatever, but when we're in the lobby? Really?
Also, the rush to the NVG is funny D:
It makes the fight so much easier. And landing hits with the tranq is so hard, yet its so satisfying when it happens.
What's really interesting is when you're on the sneaking team, is choosing what type of grenade you want to go with. I mean, if you use the smoke grenade right, it leaves your enemies wide open for tranqs. Also, I'm learning that I should really really use the cardboard box more often when I'm on the defending team. It has so many uses, and I'm not taking it into account at all.

Now that we have In-Game XMB, tracking dedicated GAF servers should be a cinch. All we have to do is a create a new XMB User/PSN ID dedicated to alert others of when your system is hosting a dedicated server. When you want to host a dedicated server just log out of your default XMB user and log in to the dedicated server XMB user. Anybody in the clans can add that ID to their PSN friend list and since the ID will only be online when a server is being hosted, we'll know how many dedicated servers are up by viewing our In-Game XMB friend list. We can use the comment section in the PSN ID profile to list the lobby the server is in and other misc info like the name of the server if it doesn't have GAF or NeoGAF in it (Big Bosses Only, HappyB-DayUSA!, etc.) or the password if its not the usual pass. We can also use the PSN ID Status to alert others if were monitoring the server.
I've gone ahead and created a PSN ID (GAF_Server_1) for the above purpose, feel free to add it to your friend list and to create your own dedicated server ID if you're planning on hosting frequently
