Default [PS3Fan]2 MGO Expansions - 1 Free and 1 Paid

Quote:
Today's PSN update will feature the Metal Gear Online "Gene Expansion." It will come in two varieties, starting at $11.99. The basic expansion will add Meryl and Akiba as playable characters, and three new maps:

* Coppertown Conflict -- Wide streets, underground passages, and rooftop areas that are ideal for close to medium range combat.
* Tomb of Tubes -- An intricate labyrinth of underground passages that are ideal for close to medium range combat.
* Virtuos Vista -- An outdoor map with natural terrain that is ideal for medium to long range combat.

In addition, there will be a new "Survival Mode" and you will be able to create a custom female character. For $14.99, players will also get an additional character slot.

If paying money doesn't suit your tastes, Konami is still adding free DLC to the Metal Gear Online experience today. Metal Gear Online will also be updated with MGOnline Reward Points and an in-game shop. By playing the game, filling out questionairres and winning tournaments, players will earn Reward Points which can be used to unlock new gear for your character. This will be available for all players of Metal Gear Online.

1 Free and 1 Paid - I like that deal. Variety.

the first part sounds like they're charging for something that should be built into the game from the start.
the extra character slot is just like: wow greedy much?

Thanks for the tip, but I just couldn't get into the multiplayer so this is a pass. I really feel it was just thrown in as an afterthought. Am I missing something that makes it better than I think?

well, MGO is actually a standalone game in Japan I believe. I personally dont think MGS4 even needed MGO but after MGS3 Substance and MGS:PO online popularity - Kojima threw it in.
