Udgivelsen af multiplayer-delen af Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Metal Gear Online, gik ikke særlig godt. Der var en masse tekniske fejl, og en ringe stabilitet. Konami har nu udsendt en undskyldning på deres hjemmeside, og vil belønne spillerne der har været med siden udgivelsen, med en masse gratis XP.
"We hereby apologize sincerely for the connection, as well as matching stability issues recurring since the MGO service started,
that may have caused inconveniences.
The service is currently stable, but we have distributed the following items as compensation for the inconveniences.
• Distributed 3000GP to all players (*1)
• Promotional code: the duration of the already existing XP Boost is extended from 2 weeks to 3 weeks. (*2)
We will continue to improve so that your experience is more pleasant.
We appreciate your continued use of Metal Gear Online."
