<span style="color:DarkOrchid">I'm ranting about the seven things I hate about MGO, simple enough? Alright.

1. Every motherfucker on there uses the XM, with a silencer I might add. If you don't see someone with a XM, then they're new to the game. You see someone with a scorpion, 90% chance they're new. You see someone with a shotgun, 100% they're new, or just cheap bastards. You see someone with the mosin nagant, they're playing around, it's just not a serious gun. You see someone with a SVD Dragunov, consult the shotgun description.

2. Everyone who uses the XM with a silencer, is 80% likely to get a headshot with every kill. Why? It's not an overpowered weapon, the accuracy isn't perfect, and it's got a fairly short ammo clip. These assholes practice with this thing every day and I'm not fucking kidding. They need to stop playing this damn game so much and go outside, it pisses the hell out of me to jump from game to game just to find that every asshole in it gets a headshot with every kill, not even allowing you to get any damage in what-so-ever.

3. Ladders. Fucking ladders. You see a ladder in a game? Yeah, it's most likely being camped by one of the before mentioned people. You'd be suprised how bloodthirsty people get once they find themselves a ladder and prone the fucker until they either get booted for camping or joined by their asshole teammates.

4. Mics in this game are horrible. They're choppy, and some people are so god damn loud it'll make your ear ache, especially if they have one of those high-pitched seven year old voices. Also, I can vouch that about 60% of the people that even have mics in this game, don't even use them.

5. MGO is full of snobs. Period. By snob, I mean douches that'll actually boot you for being too good in a game, or for using the shotgun. Now I've said myself that the shotgun is cheap, but it's in the fucking game. Which, in my honest opinion, give any player the right to use it. People always piss and moan about it, and go "Oooh it knocks you down and lets them have a free shot waaahhh" it's a shotgun morons, what do you think one would do to you in real life at a close enough range? That's right, it'd knock your ass on the ground, then the guy shooting you would cock it, and blow your brains out. Use common sense.

6. The knife can kill people with one hit. Yes, that's right. Just equip it, press it down hard, and your guy will take a quick jab with it at the enemy, and bam, instant kill. Now I know that you could do that in real life, if you were like, attacking a person's neck or something. But not in this case, in MGO, a guy can use CQC/a roll, knock you down, crouch, then wait for you to get back up/lay there and then just take one stab in your general direction and kill you. Not very realistic. I think they should've included the ability to take people from behind and slice their throat myself.

7. People glitch, which can be a big pain in the ass. I know konami is trying to do something about it, but there are still games late at night named "GLITCH 4 FUN" and "GLITCH ALLOW" which shows that there are still pricks on there that think that hanging off a ledge, disconnecting, then getting up and running around being invisible is fair. I've reported two people for this, and I hope they get their IPs banned.

Well, I'm glad I got all of that out. Now, understand that just becuase of these things, I absolutely hate MGO, that's untrue. I love MGO, it can be an awesome game to play, if you know people who on it that play fair and at your level of skill. I think for a first shot at online, and just an experimental one at that, the Kojima team did a pretty damn good job. Now if only they would fix this handful of issues in MGS4's online, I'd be one happy camper.</span>

You can't do that in online mode?! WRY!!!

Great rant, though I've never played online, I can definitely agree with all of those points. >_> Nice writing.

<span style="color:DarkOrchid">In story mode you can interrogate, you can't do that online... Which I geuss would be a bit weird, but it would be kickass if implemented right. I can't really think of much else...

maybe a rapid button pressing contest, similar to the shock torture thing in MGS1, where you had to tap a button and they had to tap a button and whoever got the most taps in in the span of say 10 seconds of struggling would win the standoff, and you'd have them in a lock where they couldnt kill shit but you could take em out with a tap of O. >_> Then you just start askin what you need to know, and they cant break the lock.

That rant seems like it would apply to almost all other online games too, just in slightly different ways. That's why I don't play games online much. :weird:
