>With just a month to go before its release, Konami has confirmed some major details about Metal Gear Survive, the first new entry in the series since series creator Hideo Kojima left the company. One of the biggest new pieces of information we learned during a recent preview session was that the game will require a constant internet connection to play, even for single-player. This is not totally unheard of in gaming, as Destiny 2 and other online-focused games require a persistent internet connection across all modes.
>Konami said Metal Gear Survive requires a constant internet connection so the game can offer a "seamless" experience as players move between single-player and multiplayer. "Metal Gear Survive's online connectivity requirements were built to support a seamless integration between single player and co-op. This will also enable us to provide ongoing content post-launch."
>Another detail we learned that Metal Gear Survive will have a microtransaction store where players can purchase virtual currency. Coins are available to purchase with real money (specific price points were not disclosed) or through standard gameplay, as is the case in many other AAA games. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain also offered a number of microtransactions, so this is nothing new for the series. You can check out the image above to see what's available to buy in Metal Gear Survive's store, including Boost Passes for various durations of time, but bear in mind that the game is not finished and as such, things could change.
Konami just wants to piss away the community so they can make room for their pachinko audience. Looks like the Yakuzas are on full affect on Konami.

It's funny because I thought MGSV was jam-packed with so much secondary bullshit that it was overwhelming, and they decided that they needed even more for Survive because "more, not better" is the latest focus group trend. How many things do you have to juggle in that game? Base, recruiting, air levels, RPG skill trees, survival, crafting, base building, escort missions, and probably more. It's turning into that old joke image with the fingerless glove meter.

I felt like the problem was that the secondary shit was pointless. All that mother base shit in MGSV does almost nothing except give you better weapons, which only makes the game less fun since you can run just around spamming stun grenades and tranqing everyone in sight. I honestly think that survive might turn out to be fun.

Instead of buying this totally uncool japanese garbage, you Anonymous should try getting into Fallout 4® VR! It's the latest trend and VR is so phenomenal when used on the already amazing game made by your very own Bethesda.
Just think of the great things you can do with your own two hands when you've got a lazer musket! Or maybe you'd like to get up close and personal with a baseball bat? All this is possible in Fallout 4 and even better because it's in VR.
And don't forget, your very favorite mods can be downloaded for redeemable Bethesda Points® from your very favorite developers own modding market. Some of the proceeds even go to the modders who developed it to give back to those hard workers! Buy it today!

Reasonable sentiment, but I assume you've seen the leaked papers on modern game design. Priority #1 is psychologically compelling people to buy microtransactions, priority #2 is advertisement, and the actual game itself is way down at #3, if not lower. So, gameplay will be agonizing without microtransactions, far too easy with them, and unsatisfying in general.

I put some time into the beta and its basically a much faster paced Fortnite -before it became a pubg clone that is- the gameplay is fun. Its MGSV with some twists. That said its pretty easy. The Creatures can kill you very easily so its not a dead rising style 'mow down the herd' type of deal. But you can backstab fish easier than DS1 which makes the specials all moot.
If i have one big criticism of the game -in a vaccuum removed from konami and kojima- it is way too fast. You spawn in and everyone goes buckwild gathering because you have 5 minutes to cover the entire map, build things that all build separately in a que AND set up in that time. Its good the first few times as you watch the tension build as red blips show up on the map and a quickly shambling horde gets like 30 feet away by the time its all set up.
But thats it every time. That trailer showing sneaking elements and using animals to distract Creatures? doesnt happen, in the Beta at least. Its fast paced. 3 waves of tower defence with monsters somewhere between dead rising and left 4 dead. Fun at first but really looks like its not going to have much longevity.
Personally i would like a bigger setup phase. You just port the drill in, maybe you have to sneak around the map and set up some kind of cartographer to then be able to spawn in the drill? give us a reason to stealth it IS metal gear on the box after all.
Thats about it though. Make is slower, add more excuses for stealth and side objectives. Beyond that its an okay multiplayer game in the same 'got 15 minutes?' like monster hunter or lost planet 2. In fact in most respects it feels more like a capcom game than a konami one. I kind of enjoyed my time. But 4 hours in something you put no money down for is not going to get the same sentiments as buying this for £25 and expecting anything close to the 100 hour fuckaround of MGSV.
I'd say try the beta, but don't expect peace walker OPs 2.0, its made for the gun jumpers that don't care about triggering alarms.
-OR bare in mind this could all have been designed for the lowest tier of mainstream chads and the retail will be balanced very differently, who knows?
