Metal Gear Megathread V - Kojima's been wanting out since MGS2

[krakadict]

yeah it does, you should switch to borderless is you're alt tabbing while in survive.

Survive's got new patch notes, also a compensation (AKA free stuff) from the Survive team.

Patch:
2018.03.27

Notice regarding bug fixes and game balance

We have fixed several issues and balanced elements in the game during today's regular maintenance.

Content:
 - Added new rewards to Savalge[sic] Missions and Base Camp Defense.
 - Fixed several issues and adjusted the overall game balance.
Free stuff:
 2018.03.27

 Notice regarding disconnection problem at the last wave in CO-OP missions

 We confirmed that some costomers[sic] experienced a problem where rewards could not be received because of disconnections caused by several reasons such as unstable connections in the matching rooms selected, at the timing  where rewards were given.

 We fixed this problem during the maintenance in March 20th.
 *If the connection is not stable, play on a wired network and also check your network environment.

 There is still a possibility of disconnection in some network environments for some matching rooms, however, you will obtain rewards and will have items such as ammunitions consumed, if the game progressed through to the timing where rewards are given.

 As a compensation and an apology for this problem, we offered items to the costomer[sic] with a condition below;

 Condition:
  - Customers who created their characters by 14:59, March 20th.

 Items offered:
  - Premium Boost Pass [1 Day]
  - Weapons Case (Legendary) x 5
  - Gear Case (Legendary) x 5
  - Materials Case (Legendary) x10

 * It may take time to implement the changes and receive the items.

Damn, that's a pretty generous amount of stuff to give away for free. Good on them.

[SpartanXC9]

You better played Peace Walker and MGRR after MGS4 my dude

Reduced the repair costs for Legendary weapons? Uh, how about the atrocious epic gear repair costs. Right now, there's no reason to use epic gear unless you just want to show off.

[ss013r]

Huh, neat. Don't care for the costumes too much but I'm wondering what the event will be like.

[Pax]

I might've cared about stuff like this a month ago. Now? Meh.

[Toybasher]

The patriots are shutting us down!

Kidding. I'm vaguely excited for the MG:S event.

[MightyLOLZOR]

Oh neat. I jumped on Survive yesterday, and ended up getting a really good legendary bow and some enhancement kits for it from those free cases they're giving out. That probably would've taken me like 50 missions to get normally. Now my heavy arrows do like 1000 damage.

[Soul_Reaper2]

Finally peace walker is now backwards compatible on the xbone, now just gotta wait for 2 and 3 to be made compatible

[Milkshakes]

I like how they find new and exciting ways to flaunt 'this is our product' for self validation.

Without Kojima you're nothing.

[gk99]

After I play PW on my Xbone it'll make my path of playing every MGS game span 6 different consoles, and I haven't even done Portable Ops yet, which'll put me at 7.

I mean I technically could've played every game except Portable Ops on the PS3, but eh, things happen.

[Soul_Reaper2]

I don't remember as it's been a while but were the achievements always in Japanese for the 360 version of peace walker? Or is that a bug till they fix it

[gk99]

Well, GameFAQs was complaining about it six years ago, so I'm gonna say it's been like that.

[Beardy]

Update is out, including the Snake Eater event.

[Pardalis]

I hope they did something thematic with the mission. The Africa level is perfect for MGS3-lite shenanigans.

[Beardy]

Also elemental wanderers appear in Extreme.

They've also listed out the rewards for Base Digs and Co-op.

Metal Gear movie looks to still have Kojima involved.

[MightyLOLZOR]

This new event is really awesome. Maybe I'm just getting really lucky, but these co-op missions feel much more rewarding now. I got two epic weapons within just a couple hours of playing after the update.

new patch today

[ss013r]

Thank God they added chapter replay, otherwise my only option to get that one hidden achievement would've been to get another character slot.

[Trainbike]

I wish there was a map of crystalized cardboard boxes somewhere. I know I'm missing at least one, probably a bunch more. I get that the game is unpopular but come the fuck on, even the worst of the worst games usually have people make guides to their collectibles.

[Beardy]

???

[Trainbike]

Well shit. Nothing I googled ever returned that reddit post, and the only steam guides I saw were for gear containers and didn't list cardboard boxes. Thanks bro.

[E3245]

I found FROG Soldier cosmetics within the the newest patch, for both males and females. Possible event or even DLC coming soon?
