Konami Digital Entertainment has announced its plans for a public beta program across PAL Territories for its forthcoming Metal Gear Online title for Playstation 3. Konami will release Metal Gear Online Premiere Beta via the PlayStation Store from April 17th, with online tests running from April 21st through May 6th. An all-new Metal Gear title specifically designed as a multi-player online experience, Metal Gear Online will be released worldwide as part of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots on June 12th.

The beta program will offer players a unique chance to sample the innovative multi-player experience of Metal Gear Online, which emphasizes cooperative team-based play. Those downloading the beta will be invited to explore two maps – “Blood Bath” and “Groznyi Grad” – each of which requires unique strategies in order to achieve victory.

I had that same problem too... but then used this technique and it worked first go:

If you're still experiencing difficulties registering, ACE, an administrator from playps3.co.uk, has found a solution to the 'timing-outs' at the KONAMI ID site, and "No", it doesn't involve hacking the KONAMI ID server(s). Here is his guide:

* You need Firefox.

* Go to 'Tools' > 'Add-ons' > 'Get Extensions' (it's on the bottom-right).

* Search for the 'Auto-former' add-on and install it. When it's installed, close the Firefox browser and re-boot it up.

* Go to the KONAMI ID site and click on the big blue 'Register' button on the left.

* Enter your country, language, and 'DOB' information. Go to 'Edit' in the Firefox menu > 'Auto-former' > 'Save All Fields'. Click 'Next' on the page.

* When the 'Terms & Conditions' is loaded, click 'Next'.

* When you get to the page to enter your KONAMI ID, password, etc., enter the data in the fields (don't rush, you have all of time in the world) according to the standards.

I'm really starting to hate current gen console gaming. It's a f**king joke, it's getting as bad as pc gaming.

As soon as you put a game in nowadays it installs 5 gigs on your hdd then has to download a couple hundred meg patch. And you have more bullshit problems. I'd give anything to be able to put a cart in and start playing straight away.

I know what you mean. I went to have a quick game of warhawk the other day only to be met with "downloading update" I actually am starting to prefer my ps3 when I was offline as I think having to download all this cr@p to play games online all the time is starting to wear thin.

Also to comment I have signed up and downloaded everything and the reason we cant connect to the servers is due to high demand. they have apparently shut off the europe beta untill they stabilise the servers. I have heard a rumor that the beta might restart for us PAL users on the 25th and extend past the initial closing date. Heres hoping as I didnt spend all that time downloading this stuff for nothing.....

^ word, i just tried it again with no luck

here the rumor is confirmed looks like we have to wait till friday or saturday if we have to wait for the rest of the world to catch up.

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

what is the voucher they are talking about, i have a konami id already, hope ill be right

Edited by 2630GTS

The voucher provides the code to download the BETA in America... PAL regions gets to download it no vouchers no nothing directly from PSN. It doesnt affect us.

Sucks about the servers I was sooooo pumped to jump into it 12am yesterday... stayed up an hour then went to sleep woke up tried again no go... damn it.

I know what you mean I downloaded the beta and update easily but trying to get that damn Konami ID was a pain I was so close to giving up when it finalyl got through.

Well lets just hope they get the servers fixed and us PAL users can get some value out of all this mess that has happened with this game.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
