Fans cannot wait to see what is coming with the new Metal Gear Online DLC, but there are some that are skeptical about the recent change of heart by Konami. It could be possible that the downloadable content was already done and the company is just going to release that before actually shutting down the project.
Developing an online version of any game is not easy and the overall cost might not be worth it for the developers who have success with console games in general. The different modes of gameplay could be one thing that is keeping the dream alive at this time.
Fans will have to wait and see if Konami really delivers on what they are promising this time around. For a game that was almost killed, there seems to be plenty of renewed excitement for it now and that is a good thing for Metal Gear Online fans and the developers at the same time.
