If you happen to be one of the lucky players included in the Metal Gear Online Beta, today isn’t your lucky day, as Konami has delayed the beta.
On the Metal Gear Online website, it states “we regret to inform you that due to extraordinary levels of traffic from all around the globe, we have been unable to run the service to the level we expected.”
So they will be delaying the start date until servers stabilize. An announcement is expected from Konami sometime tomorrow. The ending date has also been pushed to a later date as well, which will now be May 11th instead of May 6th.
