I' ve got the beta and now I' m trying to optain an Konami ID but that' s very hard... When i get it and a possibility to play I will tell you all about my experience with the beta...

Same Here whats you konami id and game tag I will add you when I get a chance.

Also let me know if you need any help making an id.

My Konami ID is kelvinellenton, my Game ID is kelvinejensen and my PSN is Kelvinellenton... I have no trouble obtaining it... It' s more confirming it that' s the hard part... It keeps coming up with the page deleted thing but I' ll get it before tommorow so I' m ready to play

I got mine on Friday. Its annoying, but just keep popping it in and you' ll eventually get it, that' s what happened with me.

Mines Rusanagi same for PSN, add me if ya want kelvinellenton.

I been having mine for a few months now I in on the japanese beta so I hope I can play with you all.

Haven' t they said US players will have their IP' s banned from the Japanese servers?

They' ve already started banning like hell. All of my friends have gotten the boot thusfar.

Glad I actually pre-ordered the game. I have my actual, physical code

Haven' t they said US players will have their IP' s banned from the Japanese servers?

Nope I have not heard a word of it.

I don' t think they will if that were to happen then how the hell would Those that preorderd the game play.

They are disabling a lot of konami id . I don' t think I need to worry I had mine for some time now.

Us players will be able to play with every one in europe so I dont think playing with the Japanese' s guys will be a issue.

If not I will just hop on with the us guys .

I havent got the boot yet . I am a man with a plan.

WooHoo... Got it working... I have an Konami ID and a Game ID(Why need two?) So I' m ready tommorow to play at 13:30 GMT +1... The servers will of course be down but against all odds that they' re working then I' m ready

When does the beta start at 12:00 pm tonight or later on in the day.

Us beta has been delayed.

That sucks.. To when?

TBA. A new announcement will be made on the 22cond.

Okay how about the european?

According to their Web site, Konami has now postponed their Metal Gear Online Public BETA for gamers outside of Japan.

To quote: IMPORTANT NOTICE for all METAL GEAR ONLINE PREMIERE BETA players

We would like to thank all players for their keen interest in taking part in the beta test.

However, we regret to inform you that due to extraordinary levels of traffic from all around the globe, we have been unable to run the service to the level we expected.

As a temporary measure, we will be deferring the start of the US public beta test until we are able to stabilize our server.

We would like to apologize for all inconveniences as well as confusion caused.

We would like to add that due to the above reasons, we will be making the following changes to the schedule:

1) Starting date: TBA. We will be making another announcement on 22/4/2008 23:00(PDT)
2) Beta Test closure: This will now be on 11/05/2008 at 24:00(PDT) rather than 06/05/2008 at 24:00(PDT)

IMPORTANT: Please note that your voucher code will only be valid up until 05/06/2008, so please make sure to register them by then.

It' s just the us side of the beta.

It kind of sucks but we get those new maps for cod4 this week so its all good.

Majik was right about the ip address being region locked. Just wait it out.

GTA also on the 29.

To be frank, i really don' t see why everybody is interested in this beta. I think people want in because it' ll give an idea of what the main game will be like in terms of player controls etc... but if you' ve ever played the multiplayer aspects in previous MGS titles, you' d know that they' re really bad.

But yes, GTA4 is out on the 29th and i fully expect that to dominate my play time for the next couple of months.

I love some metal gear . I cant wait to do some sneak and kill action. I hope they improved on the ms3 online . I just in love with mgs this is like my gow.

Alright, is going on right now, I' ll post some impressions later.
