Metal Gear Online PC Briefly Taken Offline Due To Microtransactions Exploit

January 14, 2016 by Ryan Parreno

The good news is it’s gone live again.

The Metal Gear Online beta was briefly pulled on PC after an exploit was found.

Konami shared this message on the game’s forums:

Due to a possible exploit, we've removed access to the Beta temporarily while a hotfix is being prepared.

 

Once the issue is addressed we'll provide access to the Beta once again.

A few hours later he posted this message:

The maintenance has ended and the Metal Gear Online Beta should now be available once again. Please check and let us know if you continue to run into issues.

The exploit in question allowed players to earn in-game cash without having to pay for it.
