Metal Gear Solid Δ Snake Eater |OT| Hungry for More Snake?

Is there any way to activate DLSS4? Tried dlss swapper, doesnt seem to work. Nvidia app doesnt recognize the game by default and adding it and overriding DLSS does not work either
 
Lyall's mod worked. Playing it on ultrawide (3440x1440), but also getting big frame drops just standing around. Uncapping the fr limit in the mod's ini helped, but still doesn't feel quite right. At least I'm not getting the odd slow motion from the other fix mentioned earlier. Hopefully we get a proper fix soon.

I'm on a 4090, 13700k.
Did you need to go anything apart from moving the ifles to the game folder? Because I'm wrecking my head rn
 
I will post more pictures later. I don't know why when playing with HDR my pictures look darker than they should.

The detail in the character model is insane

Unrelated as you're on PC, but my PS5 is like this sometimes when the AV system isn't on, kinda weird because it doesn't revert back when switching it off.
Probably an HDMI issue on my end though.

Nothing, it worked straight away. I did eventually remove the 60fps cap, since I kept getting drops, but it's been fine after that. Are you sure you have it in the correct folder?

(steamapps\common\MSGDelta\Binaries\Win64)
 
Virtuous won't be getting work in the future lol.

The sales will be good here because the legacy of metal gear carries it, but these guys are a hack job company.

From what I seen, all their remake runs with the same fps issues of the original games which is quite weird.

Isn't it that they aren't doing actual remakes? It's a UE5 engine "mask" on top of the original game for both this and ES4.

They tweak a few things, but nothing is built truly ground up.

It's just a fancy remaster of sorts,
 
Crazy banding on my monitor, but I'm guessing that's because it's only 8-bit and IPS crap. On my Sony TV with Smooth Gradient setting enabled it cleans that right up. Still not messing with Windows crappy HDR. Looks fine in SDR. I disabled GPU scaling, so the bravia can scale the 1080p image to 4K. It looks better to my eyes.

So, that's DLSS at around 900p internal, and then scaled from 1080p to 4K with the TVs scaling 🤣. It sounds like it should look like complete shit, but it looks great.

I'll take that over PSRR, even if it is a higher native resolution.

Just the stutter letting it down now.

Well to be fair facial/characters animations seems mostly redone but preserve the download screen point out they mostly ported the original coding than improved.

For those interested, there's already face reshape mods for Ocelot, Eva and Volgin. They're subtle changes but do a lot to make the characters look like their original designs, imo. I believe the mod author is working on Snake next.

Remake Ocelot is particularly jarring. Somewhat reminiscent of the hilariously exaggerated faces on Shenmue 3.
 
Updated my nvidia drivers and dlss swapper worked. Game looks so much better with DLSS4 i dont know why its not the default one....

Did the first boss battle, it was ass :D Looks like Kojima was never good at this
 
This runs surprisingly well on Steam Deck. Playing around with the settings you can get between 30-40 FPS. I assumed that it would run terribly, but the Deck ain't bad for a portable experience.
 
How is the retro filter? I normally wouldn't go for that but I saw a glimpse and it awakened some kind of nostalgia in me.

But what consoles had a purple hue? Bc I think it's just reminding me of my translucent game boy color console.
 
Sounds like playing this on PS5 is the way to go. I have a 9070XT which has decent 1% lows but no way of knowing how bad the stutter will be.

DON'T GO PS5 route with that GPU.

I have a bit weaker 4070ti Super and game on high settings (with ultra textures) runs 60fps locked 99% of the time:



4k with DLSS4 performance (forced K in the driver).
Game has long shader compile but I see no stutters so far.

I'm getting it on pro because:
-I'm too much of a piece of shit to sit at my gaming desktop
-My son occupies the PC more than I do at this point
 
Anyone else playing with a 5090 and seeing occasional artifacts on the screen?

This is the only game it's happening with so it's definitely the game and not the GPU

Seems like either the game is poorly optimized or NVIDIA's drivers are. Maybe both.

That would explain a lot about MGS Delta .....makes the marketing feel even more dishonest to me. They really tried to play up that this was a "premium remake". Not just the price but anyone remember those David Hayter ads with him glazing hard about the "ultimate, premium, definitive mgs 3 experience"?

If this was built over the skeleton in the way Oblivion was, that was always going to interfere with the performance of this game. Greedy cunts and lying bastards too in order to get that fat $70 price point. What bothers me most is they made it seem like this game would be polished and well optomized for console when that was always bs
 
Oh man, as soon as I heard Hayter's voice I smiled the biggest smile 🥳.

Edit: and you can still zoom in and manipulate the camera during cutscenes , let's fucking go

Playing through on Extreme mode, haven't played original since it came out.

Made it to The Pain and trying to do a stam boss run, don't even remember what you earn from it. This fight really shows the game's age with the slow movement, slow time it takes to rise and climb, recover and dive into the water (prompt doesn't appear right away a lot of the time). Gave up for now, this one is really giving me a tough time if anyone has tips.

Throw a grenade at him when he's doing his "conductor" routine. That'll blow off his hornet shield and leave him vulnerable to gun attacks.

Run/roll off the platform when he shoots bullet bees and bee swarms, as they can't follow you underwater. If you get caught in a swarm, press the dodge to shake them off. You can shoot the slower moving "grenade bees" and destroy them. He'll yell out which attacks he's about to unleash, so you can pick up on his patterns.

I prefer to use the AK with single shot setting for mid range attacks, shotgun if you can get close to him. You can use the rocky platforms as cover. Although you can't stay in the same spot for too long for the most part. He'll overwhelm you.
 
Having shortcuts for radio and camo is such a great QoL addition to the game. I'm already madly in love again, missed these movie convos with para-medic, missed stalking my enemy through the jungle, missed tranquilizing and then knifing a gavial to death lol:



Edit: and I tried to give the new look a chance but legacy filter is where it's at, has a warmth and vitality to it that can't be beat.

Guys, do you know if Kerotans and GA-KO carry over to NG+? I think I missed one during the Ocelot boss fight. do I have to find them all over again or just focused on the ones I missed in NG+ ?
 
You know, I might have to break my own self-imposed rule that remakes/remasters can't be GOTY. In which case it will be Kojima vs Kojima with DS2 vs Delta lol. Forgot how good these CODEC conversations are, like back in the day I'll be listening to ALL of them
