Johnny can see all traps in a stage, he is a "Trap Otaku". When Johnny gets close to a trap he can disable it via his arm computer by pressing triangle. The trap will disable and become a item that can be picked up by anybody. Johnny does not have a salute, he does a victory pose instead. Johnny cannot use SOP or do CQC. He has access to the XM8 Compact Assault Rifle and the M82A2 Sniper. Johnny freaks out if he causes Friendly Fire.

Meryl has (mastered?) the pistol skill, CQC, and the new wakeup skill, she is a "Fiery Leader". She can wakeup a knocked out teammate with one tap and boost nearby teammates spirits to help them recover Psyche. Meryl has access to the D.E. (L.B.) Primary Hand Gun.

Unique characters are a common server setting. If you enable them you have to choose a unique character for red and one for blue. Only Johnny and Meryl are currently available.

Survival Lobby's info (currently closed for matches, will only be open during weekends from 18:00 to 22:00 [PDT I'm guessing])...

Survival is not a new rule, it's just a gameplay mode. You play all the other rules (TDM, Res, Cap, Base, Sne, TSNE) and the last one standing wins. Time limit for all rules is 5 minutes with 2 rounds and 20 tickets for TDM/Extra time off for Cap.

Instead of making a room you make a team. Up to 5 other players can join your team. You then compete against another team. There's also a Survival Match List that list all the currently engaged teams in Survival Matches.

Death Cam and Player Kill/Stun Notification List Off.

Have played any matches as of yet?.. on the maps. The sewer map looks awesome. Meh, I can't even attempt to purchase it, I forgot my password and answer to my secret question.. waiting on customer support to send me my info.

Lame. So much trouble just for an expansion pack.

alright, this is really retarded. I tried to buy this but then it said "TRANSACTION UNSUCCESFUL", but I still got charged and did not get the stuff. On top of that,I checked my transaction history and it shows I bought it and I don't have it. This is really stupid.

Have you logged off the game and then relogged on? I had to do that for the Codec Pack to work.

By the way ive seen a new title today - Chameleon "Prefers TeamSneaking Rules"

edit: While we are at it.

Tortoise - Uses Box alot.
Pidgeon - Prefers not to kill.

You can probably cross Rat from the list Noz, as its not possible to get that title anymore.

Is everyone else having the same problem ?? :X

Yes. Had this problem about an hour ago, entered my ID and PW and the store rejected me. Tried again one minute later with the exact same data and it worked.

->> try it again tomorrow when the server isnt sweating balls.

Basically a separate ID for a dedicated server everybody could add to their friend list. If the ID is online you know for sure a server is up without having to log in into the game. It's the same concept Oatmeal had for his server (the offline/online image) only instead of an image and this thread, we would use the In-Game XMB and the friend list.

Ahh kay. We should definitely discuss this a bit more after we get past the expansion debacle, it sounds like a great idea. Though for now it'll prolly get lost in the noise (if not your own sea of awesome pictures)

You mean like the Halo 3 maps? COD4 maps? Gears of War maps? Sure. 360 it's 800 points. But then you're forced to buy additional points at 1200. Either way, it's not a rip of to what you're really getting.

Bit offtopic but whats he MSpoints to Dollar/Euro ratio?

1000Points = 10$?

To the dollar, 1200 is $12.50

So yeah. 800 is about $10. But with those games I examples, those were for just maps only.

You sure about this? Because I just went to the rewards ranking and there is just ONE guy there with 105 reward points and it says he played 2 rounds of survival, and I'm a bit tired but I don't think it's a weekend yet...

You should have put weapon restrictons then. just go in the common settings tab and choose the weapons you want to lock.
And I dont know about written commands since I use the thingies in the host part of the start menu.

EDIT: What the hell is wrong with these guys? They just don't know what they are doing do they?

While server capacity for myKONAMI has been increased greatly, it still unfortunately unable to deal with the extremely high levels of access which we have seen since the release of "GENE EXPANSION".
Therefore, we have introduced an IP restriction which will allow a limited number of customers to access the shop. The IP restrictions will be applied to random IP ranges which will change on an hourly basis.
If the maintenance screen is shown when trying to enter the MGO shop, this would indicate that your IP address is blocked for 1 hour. This restriction has been imposed to allow a number of customers to make purchases under controlled ascess and will not be implemented on a permanent basis.

We would like to once again apologize for the prolonged inconveniences.

They learned nothing from the beta... Who is willing to bet they will do the same crap next time there is an expansion?
Also, the only time I could get in the shop it went bananas on me so I waited a bit, and then my IP was banned for an hour? REALLY KONAMI, REALLY?

The fuck?

I am wondering if I should open 100 tabs pointed to the shop and use reloadevery every 5 seconds so they are more fucked and get a clue of what to do next time.
