Game running very slow
I was playing MGS3 and all went perfect, I cleared up to when you have to scape from the tourture moment, but I havent had time to play more so I left it there about a week or two. Now I enter the game and everything runs half speed, too slow to be playeable. It is strange beacuse after i was playing normally without any issue.

Wow, so instead of fixing the game they're making it worse? Jeez, when you think that you've seen everything...

Ignore the troll who don't own the game and give us more infos:
- Playing on steam deck ?
- Have you used mods ?
- Do you use an NVIDIA card ?

How do you know if people own the game or not? Wasn't the collection released for consoles too?

Hmmmm not a very common issue, usualy people get a faster game not a slower game after some time, so you can try the beta patch version or you can try to find something here:

Maybe changing to windowed mode and other mode would fix your issue (try ALT +ENTER), otherwise check if your NVIDIA card is up to date (mine wasn't today, causing bugs in mulitple games, well only crashes) and check if your NVIDIA card is limited to 60 FPS for MGS3.

One last thing I can think of is checking if the game use your processor correctly, I forgot how to do so.

I have tryed everything it seems like a fps problem because it lows to 10 but it makes no sense because a week ago was running perfectly and other games run well too, thanks for the info tho

That's why it's so weird, according to the news section last update was like 12 days ago so I wonder what changed to cause such issue, unless you had some RAM die that would be one way to explain the issue but if other standard game have no issues then..........

Well asking in the mod page may give us some cluess or a fix, maybe a modder will be able to pinpoint if it's from the game or something else, have you verified the game cache ? I doubt that it will fix it but you never know.

Have you installed anything else since then? Or is something else running in the background eating up resources?

Try starting a new game? It might be the zone you're in

I changed the refresh rate on my monitor to 75hz and that seems to have solved the problem.

my monitor caps at 60hz. am I out of luck? I'm having almost the same exact issues. massive slowdown during mgs2 and mgs3, looks like snake is running in slow motion.

Since the games don't have a v-sync option, you have to enable it on your gpu settings. Did you try that already?
