News Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 coming to PC and consoles on October 24th (out now!)

This collection seems like a great get on PC in 3 years once the community fixes it. 1080p max on all games and 30fps on MGS is inexcusable. The bar was in the ground and they still only managed to barely meet it.

The games apparently run at 720p upscaled on all platforms, actually.

Seems to be the case, though of course there are already emerging PC mods to change this.

I loved what I saw of the extras presented, the screenplays are indeed very cool to look at- and I’ve never played MGS3 in 60fps before as I didn’t have a PS3, so that in itself is really fun.

Is anyone playing MGS1 on Switch? Does it feature the bilinear smoothing as well, or is it run at a native ish presentation?

Is anyone actually surprised Konami shoved this mess out the door? From the Switch cart being essentially worthless to not even having mouse support on PC, this collection top to bottom is a joke.

The Contra Classic Collection, Konami Arcade Classic Collection, Castlevania Classic Collection, and Castlevania Advance Collection were all fantastic. I don’t think anyone actually paying attention had any reason to think these would be half-assed.

It really is a shame. I think Silent Hill HD Collection is still in people’s minds, but Konami’s batting average is pretty dang good overall. Shame these didn’t get the proper care. I’ll stick with Xbox BC for 2&3, but maybe I’ll get MGS1 on Switch still.

Although true, they were not great at the start since the western releases didn’t get the Japanese versions or button mapping. Had to patch things like the better arcade versions, Castlevania 3 audio, and button mapping later on.

Right! I didn’t get to them until way later.

Gives me hope for patches and fixes!

You’re comparing 2d games to 3d, 3d Games that have already been remastered and perform better than this current collection. Apples to oranges.

I’m comparing a classic collection from Konami to classic collections from Konami. They put in the effort to make sure those were good and definitive. I had zero reason to think they wouldn’t put in more effort here.
 
Oof 22fps on Switch for MGS2/3. That's rough. Only Pokemon can get away with that.

With a hacked Switch it can run better. Not perfect but anything is better than Konamis low budget port.

If Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater turns out well (assuming it will with Virtuos on board), then I hope they're gonna work backwards giving the other two a similar treatment. They deserve better.

If you downloaded all the optional languages within the games menu. You can't download the games without them.

There is an option to download games without DLC. In the eShop settings in the redownload section. Holding (L) while starting a download downloads only the base game, without any DLC. But the optional languages are not listed anywhere on the eShop. They are only available while in the games download menu. My only option is to update the software and this redownloads ALL DLC... Fuck you Konami...

This is the week my diamond dogs- the week Konami lifts their awful bilinear filter from MGS1 and promises to address analog control support in a forthcoming patch.

E: nvm, clearly I wasn't paying attention to the last couple of days

If there's an ST for the game, I can't find it.

In conclusion, this should have had another three months in the oven but they wanted holiday sales. I'll continue to wait for the 70% sale instead of this paltry 30% Konami, and I hope others continue to do the same because it won't be until then that the games are fixed in a viable state.

At the very least I look forward to the DF Tech Analysis review for consoles

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 update announced (version 1.5.0), patch notes

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 releasing a new version 1.5.0 update and Konami posted the patch notes.

I really hope they improve Switch performance, there is no reason why MGS 2/3 can't hit 60 FPS.

But for once it is nice that they talk about what went wrong. I hope they don't repeat this with Vol. 2+.
