Metal Gear Solid. The Phantom pain.

Sinny · 1 Sep 2015 at 17:20

is anyone running it on a Mid Range gaming laptop?

Hoping my i7 4710 & Nvidia 860m will be able to handle this @1080p

glad to hear someone is running it on a 7850 though as that is my home rig.

This game runs really well on my rig, fantastic even, but i have one issue

Anyone else have this issue? I get a rock solid 60fps always but every 10-15 seconds i get this judder like a frame skip, tried vsync on/off locking fps etc.

i7 4790k, SLi 970 (But i am only using 1 for this game as i only use the second if needing the extra power) 16GB Hyper X RAM and on a 1080P Monitor (Acer Gsync)

Why does it default to console gaming hints, and buttons.

Its a blooming PC game.

Ported probably.

Yes that is annoying, it even does it if I don't have my XBox One pad plugged in.

Well I've got through the prologue and have to say the Japanese are a weird bunch

Only played Metal Gear Solid 1 and part of 2 when I was very young. Is Phantom Pain worth playing if I don't remember anything? Can't be bothered playing any of the previous ones.

Story pretty much makes no sense anyway, so I wouldn't worry.

The controls are doing head in. It seems determined to make me use a controller (which I dont own) and the camera controls are inverted for up/down.

Ground Zeroes run well on my 6950/6970 with BIOS switch in position 2, so this should run good.. I really need to update my GPU.

Snap & Pity, its putting me off bothering

The prologue was really weird to say the least. No clue wtf was going on during that.

mines downloading now, but ive been up since 8am and in work till 6am tomorrow so might not play much tomorrow

Pighardia · 1 Sep 2015 at 18:53

It's bloody brilliant!

Yes the prologue was very weird.

Jeps · 1 Sep 2015 at 18:57

Downloading now. Can not wait! Played ground zeroes for the first time over the back holiday to prepare and it was fantastic (although bloody short).

Anyone playing with a controller instead of kb/mouse? If so what you using?

I thought it was excellent in a weird kind of way. The sounds when you get discovered however is just dumb. I can't remember where I have heard it before and it's bugging the hell out of me.

metal gear solid? metal gear solid 2? metal gear solid 3? metal gear solid 4?

Kosmiche · 1 Sep 2015 at 19:36

does anyone understand the plot of mgs, or is it just me that finds it incomprehensible.

ElliorR · 1 Sep 2015 at 19:38

The sound upon discovery, along with the !, is something that'd have annoyed me if it hadn't been included.

Clairvoyant · 1 Sep 2015 at 19:40

I dont have ground zero on PC. So got a save from the net. But i dont have the folder to put it into.

Copy data to X:\Steam\userdata[Accountnumber]\311340\remote

Any help.

The plot itself is great... Just don't be distracted by all of the nonsense that is often incredibly weird and makes it seem more complicated than it actually is.
