No female characters?; What a lousy personalization!

Don't even think about using auto-fire, or I'll know.

So, I gave a look at MGSOnline, but you can't create a female character? Isn't that very limitating and also slightly sexist? Is it because they're gonna make you pay some extra money to be allowed something so basilar as choosing your gender?

It's ironic isn't it? considering that MGS4 is littered with female soldiers like the Havens troopers and the BB Unit.
I'd love to see female soldiers in MGO, they would also have the ability to walk over those pesky mags without being affected. XD

I believe it is. It will (supposedly) have 3 new maps, female characters available, and Meryl and Johnny as special characters.

That is lame, MGS4 is filled with Female troops. I dont see how they didnt add not one female option.

This expansion pack you speak of, does it come with a confirmed price tag? do you know it?

Yeah but if you have a girlfriend who likes the MGS series she might want a female character. I know I wouldn't want to look at some butch dopey guy running around if I played it like that.

Any idea on how much it will cost?

It's JPY1800, so that's usually around USD16 and GBP9.

i think it was mentioned that it was worth 17000yens, thats about $18 and well £10 (correct me if im wrong!).
Lmao there would need to a lot of changes made to MGO if female characters were added, such as when you have CQC level 3 and you grab their balls....oh wait girls dont have them...and how about the magazine, girls won't love/get attracted by them, unless they're lesbos lmao.
Something would really need to be changed to make it fit for both male and female.

They could just make it gossip magazines or dildos.
Plus, I don't think a lot of female gamers aren't typical stereotype girls.

Pretty expensive though, if it's 10 GBP. It's just a software update.

Starting 7/17 in Japan, there will be a new expansion pack available for download for Metal Gear Online.

The pack will be 1200 yen (or a 1500 yen pack which will give you one new character slot), and it will include:

- Johnny and Meryl will be added.
- Now able to make Female Characters.
- 3 new stages including Shadow Moses, Mei Ling's Ship, and MGS1 Heliport.
- Official Survival Mode added.


Source

Not much longer to wait. Despite the amount for the add on, I'm going to pay for it. I'd like to new maps, to be able to play as a female (no I'm not a weirdo. They are much smaller, less shadow, better stealth), and I'd like to play as Johnny and Meryl. I assume they will be bosses on the respective teams similar to Ocelot, Sokolov and Raikov in the original MGO.

Yes, clearly the original report about what the three new maps would be was completely wrong. Nonetheless, we still will be getting three maps and female characters in the new expansion pack.
