Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Beta is confirmed for EU as well? - at least a Dutch site (www.psonly.nl) claims that, they source eurogamer.com for it, but I cannot reach that site

edit; eurogamer.net seems to be an actual site :p but I cannot find the news there

Word comes courtesy of a German announcement, which specifies the date and adds that there will be - and we're translating here - a "free accessible beta" for MGO.

You guys should listen to the podcast if you got nothing to do!

Kojima has said that MGS4 will be the last entry in the MGS series, and as such will tie up all the ends in the story.

That still didnt answer my question does that mean there be no new metal gear series made?Like Metal Gear 5 be about something totally different a new chapter totally different from the previous metal gears we play.

No one knows but I doubt it.

I believe MGS was going to conclude earlier, but fans even went as far as sending Kojima death threats so I've heard to carry it on.

MGS4 is the end of MGS as we know it.

A spin off starring Otacon? Maybe, if he doesn't die in MGS4, but, meh, that's not really "MGS".

I have no issues with it ending, MGS4 is going out with a huge bang and it will be awesome.

I remember talks ages ago about devoloping Portable Ops 2 if the 1st Portable Ops sold well. I can't remember if it was confirmed otherwise though.

But yeh, MGS4 will most likely be the last one in chronological order

That scary they were sending in letters like that I would never do that.

MGS4: Kojima says "50GB BD Not Enough For MGS4"

In an exclusive interview with Hideo Kojima, the creator of Metal Gear Solid series, has made complains about 50GB BD not been sufficient. The Metal Gear Solid producer considers the Blu Ray disc too small and that they had to make compromises in order to put the game on the 50GB BD. According to Hideo, the programmers had to compress some parts in the game to save disc space.

Kojima : I am not satisfied with the quality yet, however...there isn't enough space.

Interviewer: Not enough space..on..Blu-ray..?

Kojima: Yes.(laughs). Not enough space.

Man, that Kojima is nuts, lol.

This game is defiantly looking like it is going to be the longest game in the series, possibly two fold.

Well, if you compress 5.1 audio in a lossless format (they probably won't go for lossy compression I think) - alongside of lots of game itself, I think you can get there indeed.

You know what it's going to be, all those HD magazine pictures to distract guards with. :p

Guess that puts to rest any MGS4 360 rumors :p

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
