Friday Night Fights: Metal Gear Online beta edition photo

Who would've guessed it -- the Metal Gear Online beta went live just in time for Friday Night Fights. Talk about timing! I'm excited about it and I don't even own a freakin' PlayStation 3.

For those of you who do own a PS3 (and have access to the MGO beta), however, we've got big plans for you tonight. To fully prepare yourselves, I suggest y'all hit up the game ID thread in the forums, then make sure to read the instructions for joining the Dtoid match after the break.

As for the rest of us unlucky bastards, there'll still be the usual Friday Night Fights shenanigans that we've come to know and love.

[Thanks, Toneman, power-glove, Y0j1mbo, vexed alex, bunnyrabbit2, WTF Joel, and the rest of you beautiful people.]

Games:
• Bomberman Live
• Burnout Paradise
• Call of Duty 4
• Condemned 2: Bloodshot
• Gears of War
• Halo 3
• Ikaruga
• Rainbow Six: Vegas 2
• Rock Band / Guitar Hero III
• Team Fortress 2

Hosts:
• vexed alex - Party Foul Alex (Halo 3)
• power-glove - P0WER GL0VE (Ikaruga, Burnout Paradise, Rock Band)

Beyond FNF:
• Euro Friday Night Fights

Games (more info):
• Burnout Paradise
• Call of Duty 4
• Unreal Tournament 3
• Warhawk

Hosts:
• MrSadistic - SaintSadistic (UT III @ 8:00 EST)
• Y0j1mb0 - k0wb0y-b33b0p (Call of Duty 4 @ 10:00 EST)
• shipero - Shipero (Metal Gear Online beta @ 11:00 EST)

Additionally, Pedro (MGO ID = Pedro) will be hosting tonight. Here's how to join his match: "go to Lobby Select, then Free Battle, then pick EVA for the server, then go to Join Game, and finally find the Destructoid game. The password will be dtoid."

Mini-guide for meeting up with Dtoiders for Super Smash Bros. Brawl:

The IRC way: head on over to this Web site (or start up your own IRC client) and type "/join #dtoid-brawl" without the quotation marks.

The Ventrilo way: download and install Vent. Then use the following info to log onto Dtoid's server:

• IP/Hostname: VOICE-VA2.BRANZONE.COM
• Port: 3790
• Password: None

Once you're in, you'll need to use the password "ftw" to access the Social Lounge.

The 360 way: use your Xbox 360 to chat with people on your friends list. Steam or IM are good alternatives too.

Beyond FNF:
• ThurDSay

Games(more info)
• Team Fortress 2
Server: Destructoid.com - TF2
IP: 8.12.20.112:27015
Password: alsococks
• Agent MOO: Maximum Overdeath (free download)
• TrackMania Nations Forever (free download)

Beyond FNF:
• TF Tuesdays
• AMMO MOOnday

Metal Gear Friday!

Qraze at 04/25/2008 19:10

i love to say it but turok fncking sucks. metal gear beta weekend has begun baby!!!

brainderailment at 04/25/2008 19:12

CORRECTION "The password will be dtoid."

IT ISN'T "dtoid" IT'S "toid"

Unicorn at 04/25/2008 19:16

@ qraze.

perhaps only because you lack the skill required to play it.

Jordan Grim Devore at 04/25/2008 19:22

You do realize that the part talking about the password is in reference to Pedro's game, right? Because "dtoid" is what was sent to me.

You're probably talking about a completely different match -- unless I'm just terribly ill informed.

aborto thefetus at 04/25/2008 19:25

I'll be on tonight with the usual, COD4. I haven't played it since downloading the map packs so I'm looking forward to it. People better be on damn it!

brainderailment at 04/25/2008 19:32

Maybe lemme check again, it doesn't say what the name of the match is. If it's called "Destructoid" that's not what I found. THX

brainderailment at 04/25/2008 19:33

Yeah, checked again, only game is called dtoid, and password is toid.

ZServ at 04/25/2008 20:01

I'll be hosting rainbow six vegas 2 on 360.

power-glove at 04/25/2008 20:22

I am having a great deal of difficulty getting online with the 360. It has something to do with my lame router. Hopefully, I can get it fixed soon.

brainderailment at 04/25/2008 20:44

I guess the beta is region locked, so much for all that. I may get on and make a Destructoid room if there isn't one, password dtoid.

My character's name is Raepgoblin

vexed alex at 04/25/2008 20:45

Halo FNF is currently going on!

Join up, guys.

BluDesign at 04/25/2008 20:50

Well, I am going to be playing some CEE OH DEE FORE.

Metalocalypse

Do not look to me as a host, because my upload is shit-tay.

Pedro Blandino at 04/25/2008 20:57

the MGO server is up.
look for it in the Fee battle in Eva!

DynamicSheep at 04/25/2008 21:09

METAL GEAR!!! (BITCHES)

YadGadge at 04/25/2008 22:41

Anyone still playing CoD4?

diversionmary at 04/25/2008 22:53

powerglove, diversionmary, warchiefgrim, asbestossndwich, fm4 renegade, the gadge, Metalocalypse, agent M00 = cod4

YadGadge at 04/25/2008 23:10

Yeah, I'm The Gadge, I just checked to see if FM4 Renegade was still on and still in CoD4, and he was so I sent a message.

Quisling at 04/25/2008 23:35

Yay hosting is FUN! Put me down for next week as well.

Also, I may get back on later, because I decided that I wasn't as tired (or drunk) as I thought I may have been.

Something like that.

DOmeN at 04/26/2008 01:26

Hey guys, getting lag and "connection not stable" in MGO like a mad man. About 8 out of 10 servers give me that error, and lag badly as well if there are more then 5 people. I am NAT type 2, any ideas?

Oh and I never have a problem with WarHawk or PSN.

Volomon at 04/26/2008 03:33

Donno, but most likely its your connection. Cause I've not had ANY issues so far. Not even a little lag.
