In case you're waiting for the Metal Gear Online beta to begin (it's supposed to start sometime tomorrow), you might want to connect up and start downloading the 1.01 and 1.02 patches that are now available. Maybe you'll have better luck with the download speeds than I have... I'm a couple of hours in on the 1.01 patch and I'm only at 35 percent completion.

Maybe the direct download is a faster option?

yeah, those patches were absolutely bruuuuutal.  multi-site registration didn't sweeten the pot either.  beta was almost over by the time i finally got in.
