Metal Gear Solid 5 updates nuclear option as Metal Gear Online Konami changes are revealed

Metal Gear Solid 5's nuclear options have been updated

METAL Gear Solid 5 now includes new Nuclear option in the Phantom Pain, while Konami have also detailed a new Metal Gear Online update.

 

The Phantom Pain FOB system, which allows players to invade other games with Forward Operating Bases, has seen a new patch which gives those with nuclear weapons the lowered chance of being attacked.

The more nuclear weapons owned now lowers the chance of an FOB invasion, while bonuses have been added for successful infiltrations.

Building these armaments takes a fair amount of game time and probably deserved a boost for how much effort if took to equip multiple warheads.

Dataminers have found a new Metal Gear Solid 5 cutscene connected to a nuclear ending that has yet to be triggered by fans on Xbox, PlayStation or PC platforms.

 

Konami also revealed their long list of updates planned for Metal Gear Online this week.

The November patch will include being matched with players of similar level your own character and changes to the fulton system among other gaming adjustments.

Players who now fulton an enemy will notice the fulton balloon and the enemy will be invincible to other teammates, a big change in terms of how the current system works.

The Metal Gear Online November Update also includes:

[Auto-matching]

• You will now be matched with players of similar level to your highest character level.
• It is now less likely to join a host with poor network connection.

[Mission Adjustments]

• The game will now end once all teammates are stunned or tranquilized in CLOAK AND DAGGER.
