So now that Metal Gear Online 4 has been officially confirmed to be packaged with Delta, the question now remains, what would you like to see from this new iteration of MGO?
Personally, I'd love to see a kind of "best of all worlds" scenario here.
MGO1 was my favorite MGO game, so I'd love to see MGO4 resemble that in a lot of key areas. Bringing cameras back, ghosts who can give away enemy positions out of spite, the flamethrower and other in-level weapons you can find and use. As well as maps like the City and Mountain top. Ideally, also having as many maps as MGO1 did. Every other MGO game always started with too few to chew on at launch. MGO1 also had the best modes. If Sneaking returns, it should go back to being everybody vs Snake because that was always such an intense ride. MGO1 was also the fairest when it came to weapons. You weren't suddenly just unkillable once you were on a hot streak. Everyone had the same gear and whoever found the flamethrower on the field was still killable from range.
I grew to resent MGO2 because of the community just being dreadful, but I'd love to see unique characters handled the way MGO2 and 3 handled them, as well as MGO2's vast music selections. It also had two amazing modes in Race and Stealth Deathmatch, which was kind of "battle royale before it was cool." Most importantly, having Survival every weekend for big RP points you could use to buy cosmetics was handled way better than MGO3 since it being all week meant players were spread way too thin.
I liked MGO3 a lot for what it was. I'd love to see its more streamlined elements like giving players points for assists and saves come back. I also loved how rush mode would force players into parts of the map that never get used and keep them there, so every map kinda played like two for the price of one.
And when it comes to cosmetics, it looks like it's not doing MGO1's thing of everyone having set uniforms, since skins and customization is all the rage these days. I'd love if it took a cue from Survive's cosmetic playbook because say what you will about that game, it had, bar none, the best customization options of any Metal Gear game, cosmetically speaking. Tons of stuff from the various games, but also gear that was completely original and really neat looking stuff to actually wanna work towards to look cooler. It could also do the Survive thing of just giving us special skins to use of classic MGS characters too.
As for anything unique MGO4 could do, I'd honestly love to see like a Cobra mode. Like OG Sneaking where it's 1 v All, but instead of a stealthy battle, it's one superpowered player who can easily kill everybody so you really gotta work together to take them down. Any excuse so I can play as Pain and control bees.
What are things you wanna see from MGO4? Be it similarities to past MGO games or completely original stuff?
