Ah, that would be Cyber Jaya. laugh.gif On another side note, that little statement about Kojima not satisfied with MGS4 was just wow. You rarely see a game developer who dares to give a negative feedback on his own game nowadays BEFORE RELEASE! Only someone like him can get away with saying something like that and still have the game to be a success. It's good in a way that he gave that statement. One, it lowers people's expectation for the game but makes it easier for the audience to get amazed by it. Two, he can justify a reason to make another game. Three, If the game does suck (highly unlikely) then he has a reason to explain. Four, he gains respect for coming forth as honest.

UPDATE: Ok umm... just realized something. Do I need beta keys if I already have a konami ID?

Use your Europe PSN account and download the beta for free. Or you can use PS3-Proxy. PKG download link in the following attachment:

Ideas? Hmmm I do know that the patch for MGO is a freaking 700 MB, maybe u have less than that or nearly that size left in ur hard disk.

as for the sharing is caring tongue.gif all u need is ask google for infinite justice the ringtone.



can someone tell me how the the story be about the patriots when they are already dead for 100 years ?? it doesnt make much sense.

just read a few pages I missed in this post.

Lol during my final 1% the speed rammed up to 80kbps laugh.gif
What do you mean? You can't install the update?
It's time for me to get a darn konamiID  flex.gif


Added on April 20, 2008, 11:36 amCan't access the ID page =/

I had problems downloading the demo itself.

Which region did you download? I just remembered that when you download the PKG from the store, there's an activation process.  sweat.gif

What you can do is run PS3.Proxy, then go to UK PSN Store, download the MGO beta, wait until you get the 'Activating' message. Once the download started, check your proxy log, and copy the download link. Add this link and forward it to your PKG file inside your PC. Restart PS3 to make sure that the current download in progress will pick-up the PKG link inside your PC.

Yeah I realized last night when reading the FAQ but I just decided to make a UK PSN ID and downloaded from there. I didnt have enough cables to transfer over using the F@H method. Huhu. Oh well. Now the download just finished and downloading the update at about 4-5 kb/s. Typical rate for my BT. =/ What I do notice about BT though is that the larger your file gets the faster it can download, up to your broadband cap, which is about 50-60 KB/s.

Here's hoping that the download AND beta starts before I leave for CJ tomorrow so I can take a short peek of the gameplay. fat hope lol!

6% downloading.... zzzzzzzzZzzzz

KID: Elyminateur
GID: Elyminator

LOL. Look ma, no numbers!

I found something while looking for a way to speed up P2P. Lets you test if ur speed is throttled. I got a negative on the simple test. So yeah it seems just that our broadband sucks, not that they are throttling us.

Bittorent throttle test speed?

white_neck, interesting facts. hmm.gif even the full test showed negative. Is sunday late evening in the peak hour?

I posted a guide on how to get a KID fast. use the search function for this thread. KID, not kid. getting a kid involves a girl, and preferably marriage, also very messy and complicated, but let's not get into that now. It's a few pages back. I got mine in less than half an hour.

how u guys download the update? I cant get it! its 0%... upload and download also 0%... using P2P as suggested...

I had the same problem when I selected "no" to limit download. make sure u select yes. Then give it about 2-3 minutes after pressing start. It takes time to find seeders and leechers.

Another week means one thing: More Metal Gear Online mess-ups! In today's extra special clusterf***, Konami errors persist. We're getting word that even though the servers are live, but many are getting network errors up the whazoo or this message: "The GAME ID or password is incorrect. Unable to log into server.(0911:00000003)." Keep in mind, these folks are entering their correct user names and ids. Konami's running regular updates on the Japanese Metal Gear Online homepage about how the servers are getting overloaded and how sorry it is for the hassle. Another thing to keep in mind: The Beta starts today! Hooray!! For those unable to log in, here's the online manual. You can read it and imagine the fun you'd be having. That is, if Konami hadn't dropped the ball and then kicked it across the room. We're sure Konami will figure out this internet thing sometime today, tomorrow or maybe even before the game goes on sale this June.

Thanks to all who sent this in.

Just a quick announcement:

MGO Beta Test for region other than Japan will be shutdown temporarily today.

Beta test will only continue once they have resolved the problem with Japan beta test. So, Japan beta is now top priority for Konami. tongue.gif

And, beta closedown is now postponed to 11th May 2008, not 6th May 2008.  thumbup.gif

oh thank god, I can only play for so much on weekends only! 5th of may is my assignment submission date so an extension is a godsend.

it's a beta guys, it's not unheard of that we have to expect screw up like this. If they must screw up to deliver a good online experience, then I'd rather have them screw up now rather when the real thing launches.

LAN or wireless wouldn't matter if ur signal strength is good. At 80 - 100 percent signal strength ur throughput should be able to support a rate far faster than our broadband can ever reach (at least for ur typical 1Mbps connection).
