You can go to the following links, theres two servers currently up, they are technically seperate communities, so keep that in mind
[ IMPORTANT EDIT]

HOW OFTEN DO PEOPLE PLAY?
If your from North America, People tend to get on late at night usually.
so around 7-8 PM EST
I will update for EU if i can get an accurate time.
I am new, is there beginner friendly lobbies?
Ofcourse, every saturday I try and host a beginner friendly lobby for people to join, and if need be, we may have more lobbies up if theres a demand for them.
At the end of the day, I just hope people are able to see why I enjoyed the game so much, and if it means a few people might try it out? then that makes me happy.
If you wanna catch up on my streams of the game, I have my own personal Discord where I announce streams, you can join here. Its a work in progress so bear with me as im figuring out how todo servers

The wildest thing I saw in MGO, were a clan that did full on role play. They recruited people on open training lobbies, if I remember correctly, and their leader even hold a speech for recruits, where they were standing in line and their "boss" walked up and down talking about, becoming the toughest unit that MGO ever saw. This game was really something special!

@DanSmeed 2 месяца назад

@@sexdrugsrocknroll420 I tried that as well. Played some Ghost Recon and BF as a substitute. I quickly gave up on those though because they didn't even come close to replacing MGO. I still can't believe how Konami made such a bad decision to shut it down. Might not be impossible to understand, considering all the issues it had. But the problem was that they didn't support it enough to begin with and that some design choices were bad enough to keep players away. Had they went with a simple PSN login as every other game and overall supported it better, it would likely have had a far larger community. More DLC and a better management of the worst players. I believe that people should have a high level of freedom in games. Someone's annoying then vote to kick and add to the block list or whatever. It should take a lot to actually get banned from the game. But, MGO had people who outright cheated and ruined the game for others. That should at least be enough for a temporary ban to act as a warning. Continue the behaviour and you'll get a permanent ban. I mean look at what they've been doing with the revival version. Adding maps that may or may not feel like great add-ons that belong in the game. How hard would it have been for Konami to do that when they had full access to the files and tools...

@Sandro234 Год назад

The saddest part about MGO is the transition from 2 to 3...they had such a great framework that is still unparalleled (IMO) yet they ignored 90% of what made MGO2 so charming and long-lasting and gave fans a very barebones version of the "tactical espionage action" experience. Kudos to the savemgo team for keeping this absolute gem of a game alive.

@sgr_sean Год назад

I actually was invited to play mgo3 by the team before it came out, might make a video on it someday, but it was definitely hard for that team aswell, especially the community manager taking all the criticism from die hard players. They were given a bad hand in trying to make mgo more likeable to a western audience while the JP devs already had a specific vision for what mgo was supposed to be making communication difficult, to the point itd take months to go back and forth... My memory is a bit muddied as its been a few years since that event, but i got plenty of stories of conversations i had with the devs

@Sandro234 3 месяца назад

@@patek2385 Nah, that's just in gunfights. The fact that body-shots had i-frames on them made headshots the sole focus of straight up shootouts. Only the MK17 was viable for autoaim builds, with Surveyor+ on. Not everyone who played MGO2 was a headshot addicted crackhead. That skillset was necessary to win against the top teams, usually, but I remember beating top players with CQC/Scan experts and trap enjoyers on my team. The gunfight meta became so braindead that often top players wouldn't box around corners to avoid porn mags, or they'd be busy talking shit on voice-chat while someone with CQC-EX fucks them up (earning extra points for their team, which often would mean victory in SURVIVAL where you'd go 1-1 on rounds and it'd be down to points). That's the other cool thing about how points worked in MGO2. You could help your team outright demoralize the enemy in TSNE with Scanner and even in RES. Farming the scan points, tranq headshot throwdown, then gun headshot (or if you were a psychopath you'd rob them of their guns, let them wake up, and farm them for points continuously...I did that a few times against players who trash talked me...good times). Anyway, thanks for coming to my TED talk. MGO2 is my favorite multiplayer game of all time so I can talk about it for days 🤓

MGO2 was my absolute favorite online game I’ve ever played…I loved the slower more tactical approach to a lot of the modes versus the tiring speed and pace of COD online. The maps were amazing and they’re still tattooed in my brain. When Konami shut down the servers I was super bummed out

@sgr_sean Год назад

yknow its cool you mentioned that, cause from what ive noticed, as more new people show up again, old tactics are resurfacing, only the hardcore Survival type players run and gun, while all the new people i see are bringing back box, non lethal, and cqc only playstyles again, its been refreshing.

@shopo6847 Год назад

What I found really unique was the LEVEL, GRADE POINTS, and REWARD system. Usually in multiplayer games you just rank up, and thats it until you reach the end. In MGO2 you had to keep your LVL and GP points playing good constantly, specially in SURVIVAL and TOURNAMENT modes. So you had this constant ''responsability'' to keep improving yourself and doing teamwork in order to win. Never felt this feeling of competition in any other multiplayer game. Also the level design, game modes, outfit system, graphics, chat in game, voice in game to comunicate, was amazing. Worst part? Toxic community and glitchers who ruined the game and its gaming experience.

@sgr_sean Год назад

The level and gp i felt was a double edge sword that led to the toxic community. Cause the level system on paper is interesting, but it also is very strict making you not want to play with anyone lower level or else you get penalized even if your doing well.

@shopo6847 Год назад

@@sgr_sean thats true. But thats what kept me playing non stop, that feeling of competition. In the other hand I could just play for fun on free roam games and I would only lose lvl but not gp. My guilty pleasure was Stealth Death Match, such a fun and underrated game mode from MGO lol

I would argue inclusion of keyboard typing helped toxicity the most whilst allowing teamwork. Got to understand the competitive and casual side of the community to see the true value/potential in this game. There's a reason that competitive "pro" players (whilst getting mocked by "casuals") play this game competitively /religiously and enjoy maybe the same amount or more than you do SNE. Don't ever forget or devalue those players as well :). There is true value at all fronts.

@sgr_sean Год назад

@@dormanthero yeah there are games that have it, but they keep casual and ranked seperated, in mgo2 all you could do was host non stat games, but good luck joining actual games after that cause they wouldnt let you through the door since they were level locked. Point is if GP was all there was with survival it would be more tolerable. If matchmaking was less reliant on having a pre built team, itd be more fun to get into. Cause all games that have similar ranking systems arent as strict about how to participate as mgo was, and gives less opportunity for gatekeeping.

MGO2 was most enjoyable when most of the players in the match had diverse loadouts. Some people would focus on CQC, some would snipe, some would run and gun, etc. I think the time when MGO2's player experience really devolved was when 90%+ of the players in a match would have a loadout of AR2 + RUNNER2 with AK102s and M4s. All the variety seemed to disappear when most of the remaining playerbase figured out that assault rifles were the dominant gun type in the game.

Assault rifles just outclassed every other weapon in the game.

For me at least 2012 was when Konami started going downhill. Shutting down such a great game, created by a devoted team. This isn't the kind of online game they just throw together for a quick buck, such as most shooters. Just throw together some maps and some standard modes and some shallow options and some barebones customization. MGO was made to be truly fun. The team went the extra mile to make sure of that. Then Konami all of a sudden decide to piss on it, saying they shut it down because there's a new MGO coming. That was technically true, but it came out three years later and it wasn't remotely as good!

@sgr_sean Год назад

Mgo2 was ment to last atleast 10 years, it lasted 4 thanks to the community, loving the game as much as they did. In my ideal world konami wouldve taken the hint and try to recreate mgs4 and fix the code issues that version of the game has, and try to get a smoother online experience using that system. Instead of just repackaging it as Metal Gear Arcade like they ended up doing. The SaveMGO guys are trying their best to reverse engineer the game, but theres only so much a handful of guys can do while doing this stuff in their free time.

I also know that mgo2 was made with all the content that was sold as dlc all before launch, and that it was all done intentionally because to them mgo was ment to be a larger service that would continue to expand and the 5 maps people got access to was ment to be the starter package And while mgo2 made plenty of money, it didnt do as good as konami wanted and well the rest is history.

11:01 That spot was where I loved to defend on team sneaking. My most memorable game was when we grabbed the invisible guy and jammed him with scanner 3, then let him live. He eventually woke up, rejoined his team, and spread his SoP so our team was able to see everyone on the sneaking team.

I played this game when I was 12-14. I used to love all video games but I became properly addicted to this. That 2011 PSN outage was like eternity to me, and when the game closed it left a massive massive void. No game ever came close in terms of gameplay, and the clan system/chat system/relatively small player base, created this wonderful little community of people who I'm sure, loved the game just as much as I did. It was also extremely toxic as was online gaming at the time, and that made it all the more fun! Literally all I could think about was survival, and if I had a bad survival it would ruin my day the next day, whereas if I did well I'd feel great. The game was so immersive and competitive that I genuinley felt more rewarded and satisfied for playing well, than doing well in any real life exams or getting any degrees. it wasn't just a video game, it was a sort of thrilling virtual experience. I basically stopped gaming afterwards. as no game has ever or will ever come close to this. This game made my childhood, and singlehandedly made it the best period of my life. It really was just THAT good.

The amount of customization was amazing on MGO2. There was a made up mode that snipers used to play. We called it "base sniping". Had a blast playing tnse!

This was the first mulitplayer experience I ever had in a game, and it will always have a special place in my heart! I sunk so many hours into it and made friends that I still have to this day.

Dialgoue is everything in the way this game did it, I loved the idea of a "training" feature, and your own character PER VOICE giving a speech. The idea of one rogue fighting between 2 combatting teams for dogtags is such an untapped potential for a gamemode in general! It sucks the same year I was born, all of the ideas I love were used. How ironic. Awesome video man, Thanks for showing me this gem.

MGO2 was my first experience with an online game and I can still remember so much from it. From the funny videos on RU-vid to the silly dances people would do by equpping a grenade and switching sides repeatedly. It left in imprint on me and no other online game has come close to it.

@eraser400 Год назад

MGO2 was my favourite, I played it all the time! I was so happy when it was revived and it’s still so much fun and am happy we could all enjoy it together again! Great vid, man, keep the MGO2 vids coming!

SGR SEAN you are a legend. i’ve ran into you before in MGO2… you’re pretty good i miss the gear points and how everyone had to grind and do well in matches to get points to spend on camos and clothes. no game felt so worth the time spent. and i love what the SaveMGO team has done, it’s tremendous

@Hikurac 10 месяцев назад

Another thing to mention was the competitive systems _built into_ the game. Ranked play, detailed stat pages for every player, and automatic tournaments that occurred on a regular basis with special cosmetics for rewards (still astounds me that no other competitive games do this). EDIT: Oh, and that online was server browser-based and had players hosting their own gamemodes! Prison, Zombies, etc. Those were a blast and really created a sense of community.

@Obviousinnuendo Год назад

boxeater here, nice sne rooms, you're pretty good I'm glad I found the PC version I can play of mgo2 (tried the ps3 way and, the lack of people combined with the mentality of the people that were there, made me give up and dip) I played this game religiously everyday for 3 years straight until it shut-down in 2012, first console game I played online, and even today with all other options out there I consider it the best, if I didn't have friends that I played other games with this would still be the only game I bother with. But man I remember when I first started in 2009, win or lose, I had a lot of fun, then I started to understand the game, and got pissed off at it A LOT, I've screamed,swore and broken the most things from this game. Yeah I was an angsty teen at the time. but what I didnt understand yet was that. I played causally, but I had a massive subconscious Ego. to put simply, I enjoyed unorthodox gameplay, completely stupid, impractical things that made people laugh and or be in awe because it was unexpected. But then I started to get good at dumbass tech that literally only I cared about because it was cool or funny. and I tried to make that work and wow people 'all the time' it became my personal shtick. so when I would get destroyed because obviously the player who box pops while aiming his camera at heads is going to get kills and win and shut me down from doing anything. It would make me rage so hard as if I was being insulted. "I could play that way too! but that isn't *FUN* it's not *metal gear*, you're just a cod player pos" I cared so much more and quirks and memes that I sort of resented people that played the game competitively just because *I* didn't find that fun. knowing all that now makes taking losses easier even in other games. Now when I see some headshot ar2 run2 guy who is super oppressive, I just shrug, go ugghh, and take a break. Playing now after all these years I still try the funnies, but i'm just old and not 'all up in it' anymore. It's kinda frustrating actually because I spent so much time on the game that I really feel like I should still be good from muscle memory, but I've only got a ps4 controller to use now which you'd think is better than a ps3 one but it doesn't translate as well for aim shoulder button taps. I also forgot to ask, since SNE was your favorite, did you play in yabbaddizzil's sneak room? he had it hosted everyday from around 3pm to 11pm (central) that was the room me and others found themselves in a lot and we became 'regular's' and formed a clan several years after playing together for a long time. towards the end there was a LOT of drama, probably instigated by me no less being a stupid teenager.

@sgr_sean Год назад

Hey lad. Im with you when it comes to getting angry at the game, my playstyle hasnt changed much since then ive always sorta had a hybrid style, i can run and gun, but i tend to try and sneak around more than anything, maybe not sneak and cqc like some people, but have a adapative approach. But yeah did i rage and care about my level back then, hell i even boosted because i thought keeping that level was that important. Eventually though i crippled my main character by getting 99 consecutive kills and consecutive headshots thinking people would think i was good . That backfired and was kept from joining clans and teams, i never did delete that character though and stuck with it till the end proving myself without any of that stuff to rely on. Funny enough back when it was active i was more of a tsne player than i was sne. Idk what it is now that im not as interested in tsne, but ive been thinking of getting back into it

This video was insanely high quality, I was shocked to see you only have about 700 subscribers at the time of seeing this. I've had this video in my tab list for a while but it's actually insane how in-depth your analysis of MGO2 is. I've played through all the MGS games, but never had the chance to play any of the multiplayer as they are mostly shut down but I'm 100% gonna boot up MGO2 and play it on my ps3 i bought just to play the whole MGS series haha. Keep making awesome content man B^)

I never even knew that Snake mode existed back when I played MGO2. That's straight genius and the type of creativity modern shooters need to implement in their game modes. I loved MGO2. It was my favorite multiplayer experience on the PS3. The skill gap was huge but fair. Miss it so much.

@sgr_sean Год назад

Back then sneaking mission was probably played a bit less because not many people actually wanted to play snake cause you didnt get xp for it, so winning and being good as snake was for your own enjoyment and not much else. These days with the revival server it sorta rekindled my love for it, because im mainly playing for fun and not competitive, so being a good snake is alot of fun when you get the hang of it.

@arfarfcore3320 11 месяцев назад

I absolutely love this game. Played in high school and now I’m back at it as a 29yo. You make great points about why it was such a great game, very well put. Only thing I would add is the tournament mode that they held every weekend. It was something to look forward to, something you and your friends could do after school on Friday and be proud of. Not only all of that, but it was just straight up unique and unlike any other event in any game at the time

You can set preset outfits but its only a max of 3, i use 3 types of camo that works well to divide between the maps, wish i could have a preset for each map though.

In 2008 I got to the European top rank until Yulia Beckham came along with her/his boosting accounts. I was one of the first people to get the FoxHound title, but on the first updates it was pretty easy to get. I also was one of the first to actually use the cqc properly (take-down, aim down stun/kill) I remember people would call me the true big boss, until many other people figured out how to it, it became standard. This game was amazing, it had everything you could think of. The maps where also amazingly designed. Every place on the map had a counter point to prevent campers... Too bad the new MGO doesn't even come close it.

The community wasn't all that great at times.

Survival weekends were a hell of a time, even if we had to deal with lag switchers.
