And MGO is out on consoles but PC has to wait 2.5 months :(

[QUOTE=H4wkeye;48840378]And MGO is out on consoles but PC has to wait 2.5 months :([/QUOTE] Don't worry, it's awful.

all that useless precious metal I've been selling off for GMP is now needed to get super high level stuff. ...........

[QUOTE=Agoat;48840388]Don't worry, it's awful.[/QUOTE] I'd rather decide that for myself.

I can seem to get MGO to work? I know they having issues so I guess I'll just wait.

Can't get into any matches. Keeps telling me about connection errors.

[QUOTE=Ray551;48840441]Can't get into any matches. Keeps telling me about connection errors.[/QUOTE] Yeah, i keep getting that or "Your searched match cannot be found" or that the match is full, despite it having open slots..

could someone add me on the PC Players list? > alvarofer0020 / Alvaro is my steam name. Also is there anyway to figure out if my FOB has been invaded? my security team decreased a few levels and i cant figure out why

Check security settings and if there's a list icon next to a platform's name then it means it's been infiltrated and it shows you a log of the infiltration. Also what the fuck is Konami smoking with these new online deployment missions? 8 days for 3 S+ soldiers? [I][U]8 Fucking days?[/U][/I][B][/B][I][/I]

Jeez, at least you guys can even try to play. I keep getting this "Oh, you should download the MGO data" prompt, then a swift "THERE IS NOTHING TO DOWNLOAD, ERROR" crap.

Well, I retract my statement - Konami (as usual) shit themselves. I can't join custom servers and so far I've seen more ЕГГОГs than in Stalker: Call of Pripyat v 1.0. Errors of all kinds, mostly network (i.e. cannot log in into server) but also my game actually crashed once. Never before seen on PS4.

Apparently all PS3 and PS4 users have to wait for Sony to update their store, which usually happens around 2pm EST at the earliest. Konami and Sony, tag-team self-shit combos up and down the street.

I keep getting this "Oh, you should download the MGO data" prompt, then a swift "THERE IS NOTHING TO DOWNLOAD, ERROR" crap.[/QUOTE] My brother is leaving some time this week, so I wouldn't even get to play his copy long in the first place, but it's the same problem here. MGO won't download, and it even told us to go download it from the Playstation Store. Surprise surprise, it's not on the Playstation Store, so the game has essentially locked us out of using it altogether until Konami straightens their shit out - and that could take long enough for me to not be able to touch it until January for my PC version.

[QUOTE=Ryo Ohki;48840245]I just realized the grade 7 S1000 AIR-S does more damage than the RASP, meaning it one shots pretty much anything It also costs 600 fuel and 200 precious metals for deployment, jesus christ[/QUOTE] I think it shoots pellets rather than a slug though, so you probably wouldn't do as much damage past a certain range with it. The main thing going for it is you can silence it; makes dealing with armored guards a lot more trivial.

Wow, I finally got to join a match and I could play like 15 seconds before getting rocket-punched by somebody and the match ending.

[QUOTE=Rika-chan;48840799]I just use a silenced anti-material sniper and 1 hit everybody[/QUOTE] thats not exactly non-lethal

Man, what is it with Konami underestimating server loads combined with botched launches? The FOB system was basically broken at release, and now MGO is basically broken at release, combined with the wait time people have to go through to download it despite people having been able to download it hours earlier.

[QUOTE=elowin;48840874]thats not exactly non-lethal[/QUOTE] Pssh, speak for yourself.

Gun glitch got fixed for me, at least I still have my 100 round silenced rocket launcher.

Because it looks like they didn't. Like, 'fuck it, one server box should be enough, right?'

[QUOTE=Mbbird;48840934]Pssh, speak for yourself.[/QUOTE] Yeah I mean sometimes they survive.... Sometimes

[QUOTE=Rika-chan;48840967]Yeah I mean sometimes they survive.... Sometimes[/QUOTE] I've seen people survive the Serval, but the Brennan? I could shoot them in the goddamn foot and they'd do a stunt man backflip into dead.

I just tested the new tier 7 air shotgun on my A++ guards with max upgrade battledress, it's a guaranteed 1 hit KO from a 39 meters bodyshot

[QUOTE=Ryo Ohki;48841001]I just tested the new tier 7 air shotgun on my A++ guards, it's a guaranteed 1 hit KO from a 39 meters bodyshot[/QUOTE] The costs may be inflated to ridiculous degrees, and by the time someone can make one they can probably stealth through an FOB like nothing else, but that's still stupidly ridiculous and an efficient player could just one-shot FOB guards with this thing and still get no owner alerts thanks to non-lethality now. And can't these things be equipped to the Security Team?

All this time I've been avoiding the FOB stuff by blocking the game's outgoing traffic with a firewall, but every time they release an update, I have to temporarily disable that particular firewall setting so I can update(the game doesn't start, otherwise), and I really hope they don't release a patch that pulls some bullshit like automatically builds a FOB for you just by detecting that you're online, without even starting up the game.

[QUOTE=RikohZX;48840976]I've seen people survive the Serval, but the Brennan? I could shoot them in the goddamn foot and they'd do a stunt man backflip into dead.[/QUOTE] I think it was a low level Brennan vs a riot suit

I haven't gotten the chance to play MGO3 yet, but so far, the maps seem pretty boring. They should bring back some cool maps like Groznyj Grad or something.
