Just bought the game after playing the beta. Had much more fun with randoms than I would have expected. And it's harder than I thought. Anybody else buying it after playing the beta? Anybody not buying it after playing?
I preordered it on steam. Looking foreard to it. My friends werrnt interested which sucks, but im sure there will be plenty to do.

>Anybody not buying it after playing? Played both betas, hated them both.
Oliver Young
I surprisingly enjoyed the beta, but I think I'll see how the single player is before throwing my dosh at it. I do enjoy the apocalyptic feel it has.
Lucas Moore
It's a good game because Kojima wasn't involved with it.
Levi Murphy
I forgot I was playing a Metal Gear game in the first place. Still pretty fun
Jordan Bennett
I was put off at first when I saw people shitting on it, but I gave the second beta a go and it's surprisingly _fun.
Brayden Watson
Apparently multiplayer unlocks and microtransactions interfere with the singleplayer, so I'm out for good.
Brayden Thompson
I enjoyed the beta, but there's too much potential for jewery. The hunger and thirst mechanics are shit, and destroying your deployables after 1 wave is retarded too. I'll wait and see if it becomes a total shitshow in the lategame.
Joshua Myers
Dataminers, what else is there?
Asher Reyes
I'm seriously considering it. The beta is fun and the sense of progression is there, which is hopeful considering how little we are shown. I like the OST too.
Jaxson Hernandez
it's enjoyable and considering the lack of horde shooters with building few things im confused about does ammo resupply box resupply only current weapon or all? why do some defences disappear? is it only damaged ones?
Joshua Cook
the coop trailer sold me, i wasnt very creative during the beta, but the devs show some really cool setups in that trailer.
i still enjoyed it, will preorder it tomorrow on PS4.
Aiden Barnes
I don't drop $60 on questionable shit. It's their job to sell me on what they're pushing.
Angel Fisher
I can't beat the damn daily today. What strategies are you guys using, especially against those Trackers.
Caleb Johnson
> destroying your deployables after 1 wave Dont put them inside the red circle in wave 1 and 2. They're still probably converting from encrypted files.
Lincoln Thompson
They only get destroyed if they're placed within the red ring surrounding the drill. The ring also gets bigger the more Iris energy you've got. It's to make it harder and more expensive if you're just hunkering down so you have to actually cover more of the map.
Robert Edwards
It's 40 bucks, brah.
James Young
>$60 It's $40. $32 at GMG.
Luis Smith
>Expect the game to be irredeemable garbage >Beta is actually fucking fantastic
Difficulty is excellent, i'm a huge fan of the MGSV controls/gameplay already, mechanically much deeper and richer than I was expecting, cool loot system, character progression is sweet, loadout combinations make for interesting tactics.
It feels like a lot of stuff needs to be re-balanced, fire arrows are ridiculously overpowered at the moment, and being able to carry 50 of the things is nuts, but i'm sure balance is going to be a continual thing as the community develops.
I'm not sure it's worth $40 bucks, especially in the midst of a Steam sale, but if I can score a copy for around half that in the next few weeks i'd be keen.
Brody Cruz
Steel Watch Towers over a bundle of spawn points. Drop all 3 Autoturrets up there. Drop 2 Gatling Turrets on another Steel Watchtower in another spawn point. As for Trackers, use your AR.
Carson Cox
>does ammo resupply box resupply only current weapon or all? All. >why do some defences disappear? is it only damaged ones? If they're within the red ring around the drill they get destroyed at the end of the wave.
Brody Morales
This is such a fucking shill thread ohm y fucking gOD
Noah Morris
thanks bro I feel dumb now for missing the ring thing
Parker Mitchell
pastebin.com/tzKMGPzy Deep plot though. you know what's overpowered? An electric bat.
Christopher Collins
Looking back at the old MGS games 'cause of Survive makes me feel sad. The same feeling I get when playing New Vegas and the classic soundtrack plays when I'm all alone.
Reminds me of a past when I was really happy.
Cooper Gray
Not even encrypted, just fencing with DDS conversions. The tool likes to halt in the middle of a batch and not do the rest.
My gut says there's not much more to find but I got nothing better to do, so I'll get through this.
Levi Flores
Sauce? This could mean no deal for me too. I heard there were mtx that gave a boost to earning resources?
William Price
>does ammo resupply box resupply only current weapon or all? all but the ammo it gave you will be taken away after the mission
Lucas Perry
>Last thread gets archived >user makes a new one I don't see the problem. People are discussing the beta.
Aiden Martinez
I think it's mentioned in a loading screen tip, but otherwise it's not really that obvious.
There's a lot of nuanced mechanics to pick up on which is awesome.
Aiden Morales
How the fuck do you excuse the fact that they recycled the map and the mechanics of MGSV? This game is what an expansion pack would have been called 10 years ago. And it costs 40€. MGSurvive is an indefensible and a retarded purchase.
Cameron Ortiz
have other multiplayer modes been datamined?
Nolan Ramirez
microtransaction is non intrusive. Multiplayer has most of the great weapons/recipes, otherwise, you get some during singleplayer playthrough. The boost is Shared Resource, meaning in co-op when you pick up things on the field, your team benefits from it.
Andrew Cox
>all but the ammo it gave you will be taken away after the mission
How exactly is this calculated? Because i've started missions with a single mag for my AR, refilled during the mission, then when it ended it left me with exactly three full mags which carried over to the lobby/next game.
Brayden Rodriguez
and just like expansion packs 10 years ago, it costs 40 bucks, weird. i would probably pay 30$ for a coop multiplayer expansion to MGSV. wich this kind of is... (coop stealthing would have been way better but this will do)
Xavier Clark
This shit is worth 20€ at max.
Parker Evans
Raid Boss co-op. And a hunting co-op? From trophy leaks.
Jordan Martin
It should take away the exact amount it gave you, at least it has been for me.
Nathan Ortiz
All the loading screen tips come from a bigger list of tutorials accessible from the iDroid menu. They are one of the first things the game tells you about after you make your character.
Cooper Stewart
>How the fuck do you excuse the fact that they recycled the map and the mechanics of MGSV?
By actually playing the beta and not being a slobbering retard spewing ignorant shit?
MGS Survive may use some of the assets from MGSV, but it also adds a TON of new ones, more than V ever had to begin with.........and of course they fucking reuse the assets, it takes place in the same world, why wouldn't they?
As for the mechanics, completely fucking different, you'd know that if you actually played the game.
Noah Sanchez
i dont like defending microtransactions, but i never understand how people have a problem with microtransactions in a singleplayer/coop game. anything competetive i do understand, but in coop, you just play alone/with randoms/with randoms and other peoples gear doesnt really matter as long as you make it as a team.
granted i heard it was really bad in that middleearth game and actually ruined the endgame by encouraging buying lootboxes instead of just grinding, to a point where the game stopped being fun.... but i havent played that.
Who is the researcher? Is the lord of the dust an infected Peace Walker ? what are the goal of the wanderers ? who the fuck is goodluck ?
Wyatt Nelson
>It should take away the exact amount it gave you, at least it has been for me. Hmm, I wonder if it has anything to do with my extra ammo pouches or something. Either way, it's good to know.
Parker Nelson
you're talking about the resupply option from the drill, right? I'm not entirely sure but it might not be taken away after the mission. the resupply side mission on easy drops you down to whatever amount of ammo you brought into the mission once it ends
Bentley Sullivan
some youtube ecelebs just blow it up to increase the hate for the game. Hell, even the producer has openly said that MGSurvive wont feature P2W Lootboxes. Everything is earned through RNG and hardwork.
Connor King

Parker Martin
that's nice, here's a picture of europe's military
Austin Adams
>what is Ground Zeroes Its okay when Kojima does it
Landon Cruz
pic related, it's you
Jonathan Mitchell
Hell, even if the game is very good, i'm sure even Konami know the game won't sell well at all.
At least the next metal gear will be more classic, or MGR2.
Jeremiah Walker
No, fuck GZ too. It's not worth 40€. I almost regretted my purchase when I bought it from the lunar sale for 4€.
David Perez
>resource grind where the grind is incredibly monotonous
Eli Rogers
The gameplay is anything but monotonous.
Luke Rodriguez
meh, its a tower defense game and its more about beating specific challenge maps. the grind seems kinda secondary at least to me its only monotonous if its boring or not challenging, the beta seemed promising with hard being pretty damn hard
Grayson Martinez
Yeah gonna buy it too. I know it's a faaaar better idea to wait but I want to play the story and that Motherbase profile tag is pretty sweet.
Ethan Reed
Is Siege worth playing?
Leo Ross
i played it a year ago on PC. it seems like a PC game, dont get it on console. unlocking shit takes forever if you dont want to pay extra. game is fucking great though, if you want a slowerpaced tactical shooter with gadgets and a Counter Strike like Structure.
Colton Walker
Style > Stats
Julian Rodriguez
I am absolutely loving the beta but i'm paranoid as fuck as to how the full game will be balanced in regards to grinding/microtransactions and any other sort of in game currency.
Nolan Bailey
as long as you dont get mauled to death user.
Samuel Garcia
Depends, do you mind playing a shooter where every weapon is instakill and aim doesn't matter. You also need people to play with since teamwork and tactics are incredibly important.
Aaron Rivera
To those anons saying the fire arrows were good you're damn right as they're practically molotovs on a stick, whats even better is apparently my last match I got a broken compound bow FUCK YEH
Liam Russell
why does the melee combat feel like such clunky shit?
Angel Garcia
>Letting anything touch you >Even when dancing into hordes to back stab specials
Michael Russell
zombies wouldn't maul a cute girl
Nathaniel Martinez
they're broken, check them on the combat dummy, they hit twice with the initial arrow
Isaac Davis
MTX will be non intrusive. No p2w lootcrates. Can earn Premium Currency from logins and regular play. Another type of currency is Battle Points. Its for ranking purposes, but seems like you can purchase cosmetics for it.
Juan Price
Now that I've wrapped my head around the new mechanics and controls I can admit that the game is really fun.
But holy shit this new HUD is awful, who the hell thought having it constantly glued to your character was even a remotely good idea?
Cameron Kelly
Cause you are stupid and probably didn't even realize you can move with your weapon at the ready.
Anthony Thompson
>they're practically molotovs on a stick Damage is way higher than molotovs as well, only difference being you need to get a direct hit on a guy in order for the flames to spread with arrows as opposed to the molotov that can hit the ground and spread.
...used together they're amazing, especially in grassy areas.
Enjoy running low on rags though.
Hudson Torres
stop using a spear
David Watson
>why does the melee combat feel like such clunky shit? Reminds me of Monster Hunter, I love it, and it gets a LOT better once you start unlocking skills.
Julian Perez
The leak showed us some wanderers still have their conscious. so they aren't zombie anymore.
Wyatt Russell
Besides fire arrows, are the bows actually that good? I know that you can pickup the arrows and reuse them, which is a plus but I just stuck with melee weapons and a shotgun as backup if anything got too close
Joseph Mitchell
Any sort of microtransactions that speed up gameplay progression are intrusive in my book, just like MB coins were in MGSV.
Dominic Brown
heavy arrows are also nice, bows will probably be better when we have the marksman tree instead of survivor which is melee focused
Jack Perez
if you have special arrows they are, normal arrows are total garbage.
Isaiah Anderson
So axe weapons are basically trash right?
Way too fucking slow with too little damage/range payoff, the machete does decent damage without taking five hours to swing.
Thomas Wood
don't see the style either.
Jaxson Harris
Bows have really high damage output in general and the extra arrow types are all extremely good. Everyone's already talking about fire arrows, but heavy arrows are basically double damage which means almost anything is dead, and shock arrows are really effective as well.
Luke Rogers
RAIDENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
Andrew Carter
axe is amazing if you have the dash attack
Wyatt Peterson
Inferior to the spear except for the fact you get hyper armor. Every weapon's best attack appears to be the dash attack. The worst downside to axe is that it takes your hip slot, which is better used for a large magazine shotgun or the rifle.
Mason Long
>t. /fa/ggot that unironically thinks his fedora and trench coat looks good
Mason Green
approximately how long until you are finished?
Jordan Smith
>Besides fire arrows, are the bows actually that good?
Bow is awesome, heavy arrows do insane damage, regular arrows are plentiful, both can be reclaimed giving you unlimited ammo and you can set yourself up to carry...
50 fire arrows, 30 heavy, 50 regular 60 heavy arrows, 20 fire, 50 regular 80 regular, 20 fire, 30 heavy
...etc, so versatility is awesome, crafting materials (aside from rags) are extremely plentiful in mission so you can craft even more.
Alexander Martin
Raiden doesn't have those yellow line, looks more like the frog unit suit...
Or it's a tease for Rising 2 with a new cyborg body for Raiden.
Logan Reyes
Let's talk about the Boost then. 2% Kuban Energy gain. - Normally Kuban energy drops from easy, at 10k per stack, normal 30k per stack and 50k per stack on hard. You'd only get at best 5k to 20k depending on how many stacks you get per match. Assuming you actually S Rank all the time, meaning you still have to pull weight. 2% Shared Resource gain. - Anything you pick up might give you 2x of said item, and it goes to your shared resource pool with your teammates. Meaning, you can craft more items. 2% battle point - Easy, drops 10 of these, but hard drops a fair amount. You STILL have to complete the match to get them, so if you die in the process, bleh, S Rank is also needed to ensure maximum drops. If that's non-intrusive enough for you, i dont know what else. If those % rates are a bit higher, then yeah, i'd call it intrusive.
Ryan Young
Kojima didn't think of that idea though, Konami just couldn't wait to sell a game
Colton Russell
>the frog units design was wasted on a game, that lasted only for a few years
it was the best outfit in online mode
Thomas Bell
Six months. Dude after I finally get it converted I have to sit on my ass poring through like four thousand images, most of which are textures for rocks and chain link fences. It'll be a minute.
Ethan Morris
the worst downside to the spear is that it takes up your back slot which is better used with a bow
Samuel Williams
Two handed weapons at least have a decent range, high damage and a lot of crowd clearing potential but I don't think heavy weapons are worth using, at least in the beta. The speed of them makes two handed weapons look like MGR and the sprint attack the only one you can safely wind up, they have very few wide sweeping attacks so the range doesn't help, the hyper armour matters little when every weapon's heavy attack has that anyway, and even though they do a shitton of damage, there are very few situations where that kind of damage is actually necessary or useful since bombers and armored can just be backstabbed or have their weakspots exploited.
Aiden Hill
that seems p2w, might cancel my preorder
Joseph Russell
If a new metal gear happen in the "future timeline", i would love the return of the frogs.
Gabriel Gonzalez
