    <title>Nanomachines on -  a thought</title>
    <published>2008-05-03T19:16:04Z</published>
    <updated>2008-05-03T19:27:16Z</updated>
    <content type="html">I am now a proud addition to the Metal Gear Online beta test.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as a hardcore, diehard MGS fan, I don't think I could be any happier right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as a game enthusiast in general, I don't think I could SUCK ANY WORSE AT THE GAME. ouch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They took out wall-clinging and replaced it with a new system, one I'm not too particularly fond of so far, but it's alright. I think it's a bit of a nod towards Splinter Cell, actually. They've adopted a bit of a resident evil style system where you HAVE to hold one of the shoulder triggers to aim (and then a second trigger to shoot).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;not only that, but if you try to TK anybody (no, i didn't, friendly fire accidents happen), SOP takes over and locks your gun for the next 2 or 3 seconds or so. (You get a resounding flashing red light that basically calls you a jackass for not checking your fire too) You can really tell that the nanomachines are hard at work in MGO. When wired in with a team you can pretty much see just about anything. There is truly "&lt;b&gt;no place to hide&lt;/b&gt;" - and I like that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On an even more positive note, you can run while crouched now, which has been a &lt;b&gt;NECESSARY&lt;/b&gt; addition since MGS2. After playing a lot of Splinter Cell and then going back to MGS, it was very frustrating to not be able to move at all while crouched.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(&lt;span class='ljuser ljuser-name_prettymei' lj:user='prettymei' style='white-space: nowrap;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://prettymei.livejournal.com/profile'&gt;&lt;img src='http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif' alt='[info]' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href='http://prettymei.livejournal.com/'&gt;&lt;b&gt;prettymei&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; will like this) &lt;b&gt;CQC has dramatically improved&lt;/b&gt;. You could do a fair amount of stuff with Big Boss's CQC style in MGS3, but in MGS4 you can actually disarm people, use multiple methods of physical disablement, and *gasp* i guess what I'm getting at is, there's a real close combat system now. CQC is very polished to the point where you can actually use it while holding a full sized rifle. Not only that but the &lt;b&gt;stun knife&lt;/b&gt; is a brilliant addition that should have been added again, two games ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SNE mode is awesome. It's far better than it was in MGS3:S. Two teams of PMCs fight to take out Snake and Snake more or less gets caught in the crossfire every time. The PMCs have one mission: eliminate Snake (and his little Metal Gear robot buddy, which I'm pretty sure is playable by another person).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Snake has one mission: &lt;b&gt;STAY ALIVE.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, when you have waves of 14 PMCs or so rushing you, it's kind of hard. :p I guess that's why they give you OctoCamo and Mini MG though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;passing thoughts.. the automatching system is very good. Far better than what I was forced to settle with on the Wii. Not only that, but it's fast too. I forgot what it was like to actually get to play on a REAL console with a REAL online userbase.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe that if Mr. Kojima and his team continue to polish everything all the way up to very release, then we may very well have a COD4/Halo killer on our hands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;cliffs: buy MGS4 on launch - it comes with MGO. instant GOTY in my book.</content>
