So, as some of you may know... for some reason Kojima Productions is charging players a fee (Not a huge one) for some of the voice commands in MGO. Like... um

"Cover!"

"Run!" etc.

Wtf!? What were they thinking? I hate when these companies charge us for this small crap. Is this a rant? Maybe... but I mean could you not agree? What was it, Bad Company they were gonna charge us for new weapons?

I don't think they did in the end but it's just so... retarded.

Hah, and this is the kind of... advertisement for the voice commands. xD

" Ever wished you could make your character a bit more interesting?"

" Well, now YOU can with the all new "MGO Codec Pack" featuring 32 additional voice tracks ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous. (This is my favorite part. :D) Whatever you do, they are sure to make you the life of the party!!!"

I don't usually post rants/whining/whatever... but it's just getting old. I love MGS the whole series. And I USE to love BF, BF2 was awesome... then they started the 50 expansion with content that wasn't even worth 5 bucks.

Not only that but they're charging us for character slots. You get one for free, kinda plays out like an MMO, you make a character and it stays, levels, all of that stuff. This isn't horrible... since I'll only be using my one guy. But for an Action adventure game with an online that kind of plays out like any other FPS it just seems stupid.

Bet you anything within a month there will be some BS map pack... I don't agree with charging for content for the game you already bought. If they should sell anything it should be the game it self and merchandise (Shirts, hats, etc).

The bottom line is making us the consumers pay for something like that just makes this fantastic gaming company looks so bad. And usually in situations like this it's the production company and not the developers that pull stuff like this.

So read, yell at me, agree with me. It doesn't matter, would just like to read some opinions on how you enjoy or don't enjoy on being riped off. :D

Of course, but personally, I'm gonna not pay for something that should be in the game anyways. It's still a great game of course. But it just seems so stupid... first off... how much do you think they made off the game itself? ALOT! Hehe. I just don't see the point...

EDITED- Made a typo. :X

Greed maybe? I can understand paying for character slots because it takes up server space. The other stuff is a bit crazy really. Crazy they accually make alot of $$ off of it because people really eat up that advertisment stuff. LOL.

Its rather sad that game developers make a complete game, then take out a couple things and charge you to buy them. I love Konami but this is ridiculous.

Read what a wrote man. They're selling other ones, the game comes with them, but they're actually selling the rest... I don't really care for them one way or another but like I stated... it just doesn't make sense. Infact I think this is the first time I've ever seen some one actually sell a voice command.

just got to http://www.konami.jp/mgo/us/hd/index.php

On the left hand side scroll down the Online Shop and you could probably take it from there to see what they're selling etc.

Haha, agreed. And I'm not trying to state they're stealing from us. I guess I'm just trying to point out (atleast to me) that for a company that just released this great game, awesome sells, great reviews, it just makes them look bad to me and that it's not about satifying the player but rather make money. And there's a lot of that now, and of course you wanna make some cash after all of that hard work, but it really wasn't like that way back in the day. FF got famous because Soft was closing down from failure to sale their merchandise and was just something to put out before they themselves went out.

I'm also not trying to say "Hey don't buy this it's bad" I'm just trying to make a point and would like to see peoples reactions. And what better way to do so then on gamespot itself? :)
