Having finally gotten onto the beta I played a lot of sneaking missions last night.

I'm loving the Octocamo, what does everyone else make of it?

Well if you actually fight snake and see him use it and use it yourself you notice that what you use isn't the real octacamo like in MGS4. What you use, although it does blend color wise is more like Stealth camo.

People don't walk by you because they don't pay attention to the fact that you're although colored the same as the ground, aren't a flat surface. They walk by you because you're invisible but when you move and your camo goes down a bit they can see a very transparent version of snake.

yea i noticed too. i wondered if that's why you can't see snake. the other players see it more as stealth camo as you said. i wonder if this means you'll be more noticable in the real game.

Am not a big man just a lucky one

Yeah, at first when I was snake, I thought everyone can see me and the octocamo wasn't really good camouflage, but then I notice at first nobody notice me and when I died, and someone else became snake.

I notice that the wall was moving and then I shot it and it was snake, and then I read around the forum and find out it does really work,

and nobody can see you if your camouflage is around 99, which is awesome and I love being snake, but I keep getting lag, which just messes up my game....... Damn.

I think it works well enough. I hope they fix the shadow thing though. I made a gif of the octocamo:

Snake also loses colission and can be walked threw.

I have really sucked as snake the few times I played as him, but it is a completely different tactic to playing as an faction.

I have a separate Snake question and that is someone got a hold of the robot gizmo with snake that was invisible and whipped us with a shock that instantly knocked out. Really weird and I finally was killed came back to a pile of people knocked out and started shooting the enemies and ended up hitting Snake too and killing him to stop the cluster F**ck...LOL

The octocamo is pretty fun to play with. I started my own server just for a little to mess around with it and see how well it works.

and I don't see how being sarcastic is relevant to the topic at hand. Even when someone was just trying to tell something to some one who might not know.

I am loving the Octocamo and i cant wait to use it in MGS4,I Also love controlling Mk2.it is awesome that you can blend into anything and not get noticed,its way better than the camo you get in MGS3.Also i knew about the tilting of the controller to activate Six-Axis so that you can turn the camo back default state and if you do it again it turns back to what you had before you did this.
Sergei,Looks like you were long overdue for retirement.

I know you answered it in a sarcastic way but I don't see the point in being sarcastic instead of just going along with the topic at hand.
