Metal Gear

*looks at all the bugs these official ports have and yet are supposedly better*

Ive played through 2 and 3 fully already with no issues at all, no crashing, no audio bugs, no texture issues, no lag, nothing. So if you've had bugs feel free to share.

Especially with your pie in the sky idea that people are going to mod MGS4 into a hero shooter or whatever.

Im sorry you have a reading comprehension problem. The unique characters in mgo like snake, ocelot, sokolov, meryl, raiden, vamp, etc are referred to as "hero characters" they all have unique animations, voice lines, properties and weapons not available in the base game. It would be fun if someone made a trainer to use raiden's sword and throwing knives in the base game. Or johnny's sniper rifle, mei ling's bombardments, vamps unique dodges and melee attacks, etc.

Where's that guy that said this shit would be better than emulating?

That was me, silly goose! But I was only concerned about MGS3, so take that as you will.

So what's the verdict on the Masturbation Collection? I might get it Friday since I got the itch to play MGS3. It's the one that my wife would probably watch me play since she had a crush on Big Boss and Ocelot.

I think its fine enough if you want to play them rn but with some problems, otherwise I think its better to just wait till its cheaper and at least some of the problems have been fixed.

Yeah maybe I'll wait for a price drop. $60 is steep for such old fucking games. I could easily just boot my PS3 up and play the same shit and it won't even look different.

I've played up to The Pain in 3 and it works no problem, theres a steam guide explaining how to change resolution above 720. My only problems are HD port problems, like how they changed the menu controls with no option to turn it back, I'm used to using circle for confirm in metal gear titles, its muscle memory just like it is in DMC1. The weird aiming controls are the same problem but thats cause the pressure sensitive buttons cant be used. Other than that its mgs3 and it runs on a much worse computer than youd need to emulate 3 on ps2 or ps3.

Unfortunately I dont think it has steam cloud support so back up your saves somehow.

Another HD port issue that doesnt matter but I'm posting because I may be the first human to ever notice:

The handgun you have at the beginning of the snake eater mission for all of 10 seconds didn't get its textures updated.

The one Naked Snake orgasms over for comparison.

If you want to play mgs1 use the gog version or emulate but it comes with it anyway so it doesn't matter.

Buddy of mine sent me the cracked Steamed version.

Did you know the dogtag animation drop is completely FUBAR? They must've programmed it to be the ration animation or something since they launch out of soldiers heads.

What are they odds they playtested it once? Casual run, start to finish, no secrets/hidden details.

It clearly looks like they shit this out with a barebones port team. At least they didn't fuck up textures and shit like they did with Silent Hill's. Konami doing the bare minimum is best you could ask for.

For all the shit Konami gets and they should. At least they bring back old games. Capcom doesn't fucking care about classic RE that they would prefer to just shit out RE4 again for the 20th time.

This change was made in the HD collection, it has nothing to do with this release. It also doesn't matter if an item spawns 4 inches higher than usual... This is like one of those "LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE" posts.

Oh, my mistake.

I'm sorry that you're clueless and delusional enough to think all of that is getting modded in by someone.

It's almost like the HD Collection was kinda shit and had its own set of problems or something.

But I guess that's the price you pay for slightly higher res textures or whatever...

I just saw a streamer doing the Grozny Grad exterior section and the lag is gone at least. That place was always choppy even in the first HD collection. So they did tinker it at least.

I mean if they leave the mgo2 files in the game I'll be able to do it myself probably, it's literally just an asset swap and that's assuming its not already possible via a debug menu. When you say stupid things like this it makes it clear you're just arguing for the sake of it.

What problem is presented here? You a speedrunner? You gonna lose .2 frames watching the dogtag fall from slightly higher up? Like who cares, how do you even notice this? How does this affect gameplay at all? You gonna complain about that but not how the original subsistence release botched the SAA spin so that you can't spin it without spazing out the camera? Or is only the original version of mgs3 valid to you with its awful camera? Shit like this doesn't matter, it has no real impact on gameplay. It doesn't even impact presentation.

This port also doesn't have the lag on lightning effects from Volgin, I think it was cutscene exclusive but Volgin's lightning on ps3 made the game lag because it couldn't render the same transparencies as the original and whatever replacement they used wasn't great.

Loyalty to your country, or loyalty to M&M's, Tucker Carlson?

Hold on, so Konami is still releasing that Metal Gear Solid 3 remake, even after releasing MGS3 as an HD port? What's the point, it would be like if Capcom made a spiritual remaster of Resident Evil 4 in the form of Resident Evil 8 but then just remade that game again...oh wait
And just like with RE4, I bet the original release of MGS3(or Subsistence) will still be the best versions to play all these years later

Why neither Konami nor Capcom sweetened the deals with an online mode (like bringing what they had in Subsistence back / The Mercenaries 3D) is beyond me. People would jump at the opportunity to play with each other and they could make some revenue. The groundwork is all there, they'd just have to update it and put some servers up.

I always thought you'd be cautious with your phrasing if you had a coworker of many years named "The Pain."

Not sure about Capcom, but I assume Konami isnt because MGO3 was not popular at all
It also was complete shit and a far step down from MGO2, I really hope the next collection does try to have it but I highly doubt it.
