Metal Gear survive is split between a single-player and co-op experience but according to the games official website an internet connection is required for both.
Metal Gear Survive has done what most single-player gamers despise, adding an internet connection requirement to their single-player aspect of the game is further pushing for this game to get bagged on as soon as it’s released. According to the games official website a requirement for the game is an “internet connection is required to play the game.”
For those wondering why Metal Gear Survive has a requirement of a internet connection to play here is what Konami has to say:
“Metal Gear Survive is composed of two main modes: Single Player and Co-op. Single Player takes you through the story of Metal Gear Survive while learning fundamental gameplay elements. Single Player lets you explore a strange ruined world as you seek answers and a way to return home. These skills will be put to the test in online Co-op mode. Progress and rewards obtained in both Single Player and Co-op mode carry over and apply to your character across both modes.”
Given that the game has interesting elements that link the co-op experience to the single player experience, I personally think that having a internet connection to a single-player game opens to the door to micro-transaction monetization. I would not be surprised if Konami somehow managed to squeeze some form of micro-transaction into their game, causing even more shaky ground throughout their community.
Metal Gear Survive will be released on PC on February 20th 2018.

Hello! My name Jak Connor I’m based in Australia and I picked up PCgaming as child when I was around ten years old. I mostly played RTS games back then, putting many hours into Age of Empires 1/2 and Age of Mythology. My love for PC gaming grew and stayed with me as I now have a passion for gaming and the amazing technology jumps developers show us all the time. I pledge that I will be bringing you fine people of DSOgaming the most unique and interesting news I can find!
This why piracy exists.
nope this is why LoL makes billions
Lets see how many millions this game will sell.
its like there purposely trying to do every single thing they can to kill metal gear off to piss off kojima. what losers konami are.
kojima says that it propably has a computer to destroy instead of metal gear. Like metal gear on snes.
Maybe it’s just an excuse for Konami to finally axe their mainline games business so they can go heavy in the exciting field of pachinko parlours.
kinda makes me wonder how Konami got to be a AAA publisher with that crazy attitude
other publishers would’ve milked that franchise dry but Konami tosses it into the sea…
Flop game is a flop. And obligatory # fukonami
Singleplayer? Nah it is propably a tutorial.
metal gear survive will not be bought. konami will suck it.
The game key has been sent to all users.Thanks dsogaming.
Further down into the sh*tter this game goes!
no more than 40k unit sale after six months for you mister.
Wow 0_0 Konami really doesn’t want this game to sell, huh? It wouldn’t sell right from the beginning though XD
place your bets people
i wager it sells less than 100K copies
Less than 50,000.
as of right now it sold 73K
dindu of the outsider sold 93K as of now
pretty shameful numbers, these franchises are gonna get canned now
i’m not sure if i should be cheerful or sad, because these franchises used to be good
used to be… until Bugthesda used these games as a spin to their idiotic virtue signaling
Sad. Definitely sad. It’s always sad when Bugthesda sells something, these days.
At least on the PC we can be sure of someone making it offline compatible. This is just a turn off though, it won’t affect pirates but will alienate legitimate users.
My condolence to the Metal Gear fans
perfect step in the right direction from konami blow the pirates
and the consumers. No sales for this trash, all the copies it will sell will be to game journalists who didnt get a review copy.

LOL, just like that, my tiny spark of optimism for this game is gone.
Into the trash it goes.
This is AAA Asset Flip 🙂

Who cares… Its a trash game.
