Metal Gear online beta

[Gregorio]

Is anyone able to log in once they already got their konami/game IDs or I'm just running into problems?

I know we aren't able to play yet, but I didn't know if the servers were up for updates or anything like that.

[Tajin]

The 1.01 update is the only one so far.

[thestalkmore]

All patched up and ready to play (hopefully)

Got your konami and game IDs?

Yessir, shall we play together? :D

[Tajin]

Wonder if Konami servers will be able to handle the load.

Yup, but for some reason I have the same feeling as Tajin... I bet this shit wouldn't be able to sustain anything and nobody would log on lol.

Aye =(. Up time is supposed to be in 34 minutes though?

A dude @ gamefaqs was cool enough to give me a spare code, but I'm having problems as the guy above, this shit ain't dl ;x Maybe I'll try some other tiem.

Apparently, depending on whether their servers are EST or PST.

And Meteora, just put it on p2p and let it sit, after 10 mins or so it'll start working. (assuming that you're referring to the update.)

[Tajin]

I had to put the PS3 with all ports open (too lazy to configure the specific port) and it went well from there.

[Auspice]

T-minus six minutes and counting. OMG I'm so pumped!

EDIT: Of course it's not midnight EST haha. I'm going to bed. :/

[Tajin]

Unable to connect to server, I smell /. effect.

[Exoduso]

lol, or maybe it's just not gonna be live until its the 21st everywhere? Why did everyone assume it would go live on midnight? And EST at that?

[Gregorio]

lol, or maybe it's just not gonna be live until its the 21st everywhere? Why did everyone assume it would go live on midnight? And EST at that?

Because EST is where it's at. You ain't cool unless you're in EST timezone.

[Auspice]

lol, or maybe it's just not gonna be live until its the 21st everywhere? Why did everyone assume it would go live on midnight? And EST at that?

Because the US MGO portal on the Konami site says the servers are up and just had a countdown that reached zero at midnight EST.

Konami trolled us. Oh well, guess I can always play tomorrow. lol

I can barely load up their sites lol, forgot to even check that out.

Well if that's the case, they're just bastards then. Has anybody even logged on anywhere? different forums, etc.?

Seriously what did they think was going to happen when they released the beta? That all their equipment was going to just hold up? They don't have any dedicated server or website for the beta and it fucking killed them. The metal gear series is great, but Konami clearly isn't going to survive in the online gaming world if they keep this shit up.
