Konami Warns Users that Metal Gear Survive is Not a Dating Service

PSLS: "In Metal Gear Solid, Otacon asks Solid Snake if he believes that “love can bloom even on a battlefield?” Well, that’s apparently not the case in Metal Gear Survive, as the end-user license agreement that players have to agree to boot the game strictly forbids it."

And what exactly is Konami going to do about it...ban the only two people who actually buy and willingly play this game?

Relientk772268d ago

In about a year we're gonna see a story about a couple who was recently married and they first met on Metal Gear Survive.

Elimin82268d ago

Or How they Survived Metal Gear?

indysurfn2267d ago

And then they turned the servers off two years later and the couple got divorced happily ever after! Then end

indysurfn2267d ago

haha someone gets it....You know how they said if you get viagra you should call your doctor if it lasts for over 4 hours? That was the marketing catch for Viagra and it worked.... Well this is marketing too it is trying get people interested without any of the responsibility of running a dating SIM.....pun intended.

I wonder if they will remove the load screens? I kind of hope they do.

Tankbusta40326d ago

"In addition, the game will likely lack the bizarre charm, humor, and depth that can only be found in games that Kojima himself worked on."

If its a remake that stays loyal to the source material how is this an issue?

Kojima cultists are wacky

jznrpg326d ago

If they change the script that’s where they would f up big time. They would be stupid to do that

Try not to pivot from the smartest enemies ever to zombies.

Those aren't "Solid" games tho.

chicken_in_the_corn952d ago

They're still part of the main series

Z501952d ago

"They're still part of the main series"
No one said otherwise.

MG 1 and 2 aren't Solid games tho. Title literally says "Solid"

Just stating facts.

RaidenBlack953d ago

Pachinko ... loads of 'em.

Likely nothing. After Survive failed Konami knows they can't capitalize on that franchise without Kojima. And Kojima doesn't want to make MGS games anymore, for a decade he kept saying he wanted to make other games.

Gridknac952d ago

Bingo! We got a winner here, show them what they have won!

Nyxus953d ago

It's so frustrating that we hear absolutely nothing. Remember, this is what Konami said six years ago: https://www.metalgearinform...

RaidenBlack953d ago

Lets guess that Konami wants the MGS franchise to continue to be multi-platform. Hence don't want to partner with either MS or Sony.
They can easily collab with other Japanese studios (if Konami is unwilling to do MGS with non-Japanese devs) for future games, like they did with MGR:R.
Hypothetical like: Even though Capcom is a long rival, but given the recent state of Konami, they can partner up with Capcom for an awesome MGS revival. Konami directs and publishes, while a Capcom sub-team just develops the game using the RE engine.

MIDGETonSTILTS17953d ago

They could easily remake old MGS games with the TPP game mechanics and engine, but they won’t.

It’s a shame one of the most innovative game directors also spent most of his career establishing his ideas with a company that doesn’t take pride in innovation.

Pachinko machines work for Konami, so they will continue that until it doesn’t.

Z501952d ago (Edited 952d ago )

"easily"
MGS1 was isometric. Not tps or fps.The first person view is what broke Twin Snakes (Gray Fox & Ocelot fights)

How would the laser sight tracking on handguns from MGS1 work using TPP game mechanics and engine for example?

MIDGETonSTILTS17950d ago

You might have to think over a few hallways for the older games, but that is being done right now for Dead Space.

And for your second point, I guess they could not have lasers?

I’m not saying it would be an “easy” copy paste job, but it could absolutely be done in a profitable manner. Or, they could just make another pachinko machine.

- Modification of the Agreement Process

These are the patch notes that are accessible on the PS4. The update has been reported to be just under 500 MB. It will be available to download on PS4, PC, and Xbox One. Just don’t expect to find any new content or a patch to upgrade the game for the PS5. There is no such change included in this update.

DarXyde1185d ago

Konami still hasn't patched joy into MG Survive.

SlothLordPootus1185d ago

I want a Tidying Up season 2 so bad!

Orchard1184d ago

Headline had my hopes up for a next gen upgrade but... it’s Konami, I should know better.

Amplitude1184d ago

Whoa! I completely forgot Metal Gear Survive existed at all. It's like it was actually just erased. Weird. I wonder if it's actually as bad as people said it was...

Chocoburger1184d ago

I've played the game a lot. The online multi-player is good fun, but it gets repetitive quickly due to the lack of maps. For a game with micro-trash-actions, there is no excuse for the low number of maps to play in.

The single player on the other hand is awful. It's just nothing but grindy filler. Nothing special, interesting, or memorable happens. One plot twist that was okay, but not worth playing the game for.

The issue is that you must play lots of single mode player in order to improve for the multi-player mode, since your character progress is linked together.

Most people who hate the game never played it, much less experienced the thrills of 4 player online cooperational play. But at the same time, the game is an easy skip.

There are many games worse than Metal Gear: Survive released each year, but also there are many games better released each year as well.
