Metal Gear Solid V: Online Beta now available on Steam!

For those of you who are MGS fans like myself, you'll be happy to hear that the online portion of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is now available to the Steam version of the game. All you have to do to participate is right-click on the game in your Steam library, go to properties, betas, then select the option 'mgo-open-beta-' from the dropdown box. After an update download, Online will be selectable from the main menu of the base game.

But first, be warned on a few things. As of right now, there is an open-mic feature. I couldn't seem to find a way to turn this off, without completely turning my microphone off. Good thing is, there is a mute option when scrolling through the scoreboard during a match, so you won't have to hear everyone else who leaves theirs on.

Also note that it is just a beta. It is subject to maintenance shutdowns, bugs, exploits, the works. I am not certain for how long this beta will be active for, but let's hope everyone can enjoy it while it lasts.
