Konami 'hear' your MGS4/MGO trophy pleas

March 01, 2009 in News comments 16

Metal Gear Solid 4 and its counterpart Metal Gear Online has received a load of support since its launch, several podcasts, new songs and camo's, even two multiplayer expansion packs. One thing it is lacking however is trophies, one thing many fans have called for considering the already trophy like nature of the emblems. Brandon Laurino (a member of Konami online) has recently commented on trophyPlaystation.Blog that Konami have heard pleas for the trophies and are considering the possibility now.

On the subject of MGS4/MGO trophies and Konami ID - we hear you. We have been circulating these issues internally, and we will report back as soon as we are able.

    Cool, I just hope I don't have to get all the emblems again to unlock the possible trophies. :S

    If they DO add em, it would give me a reason to get back into MGS4. I never actually finished it (heck, I didn't get very far TBH).

    I've already earned all the emblems and DO NOT want to go through that arduous process again. If they make it retro, thats fine, but if not, this is going to join my GTA IV- a trophy game in which I probably won't even get 50%.

    I would play through again to get a fair amount of the trophies but i don't think i would go for all the emblems again.

    Plus trophies can't be made retro active =(

      Nothings impossible in the world of software. There must be a way to make them retroactive, but no ones figured it out yet.

        Maybe there is, like you said, there usually is....

        But fat chance of them bothering to figure it out. Heck, Criteron promised it from the start, and they tried, but ultimately failed to live up to the promise.

        I got pissed at that, and stopped playing Burnout Paradise ~_~ I'll pick that game up again, eventually....probably....

          If it makes you feel better, now you can restart events at the drive-menu so you don't have to drive all the way back to the start line after finishing one

    Hopefully they can make a patch involving having your emblem data transferred to MGO and then get the trophies to copy it from there (IF that is possible, although the fact that Konami use their own servers for it makes it seem highly unlikely )

    If not, then I'll probably just get back to it in a year or so XP

    As hard as it was to get the Big Boss emblem, I wouldn't want to go through the trouble of getting the Chicken emblem again. That was the worst and took me over 2 whole days to get.

    But I'm all for trophies. I just hope that they will register the already aquired emblems.

    Awesome I would love trophies. it would probably inspire me to go through the game a couple more times again.

    Honestly, I'm probably wrong, but I highly doubt many people care anymore about MGS4 trophies.

    The game has been out for over 9 months now. The only trophies I could see being worth adding would be one's relating to MGO.

    Even if the trophies are added, I know that, for me, it would only make it worth one or two more playthroughs, and it's nearly my favorite game ever.

    It wouldn't be a bad addition, of course, but I think it's pretty pointless to add trophies so late.

    They would have been awesome back in June when the game actually came out...

      Really?

      I suppose I was a bit wrong then, as half the people here seem to disagree with me.

        Well, to be fair, the fact a spokesperson felt the need to reply to people asking for it shows that there must be a fair amount of people who want it anyway

    It would have been better to have them at launch but trophies would give me more excuses to go through the story mode again, plus I now seem to be able to get Foxhound on MGO fairly quickly (Three times so far and just under three days) So I would love MGO trophies
