Príbeh sa odohráva v Sovietskom zväze z čias studenej vojny a sústreďuje sa na agenta FOX Naked Snake, ktorý sa pokúša zachrániť dizajnéra zbraní a sabotovať experimentálnu superzbraň známu ako Shagohod. Zatiaľ čo predchádzajúce hry sa odohrávali primárne v mestskom prostredí, Metal Gear Solid 3 si osvojil prostredie sovietskej džungle zo 60. rokov.

Hrateľnosť Metal Gear Solid 3 je podobná hrám Metal Gear Solid a Metal Gear Solid 2. Snake sa musí nepozorovane pohybovať cez nepriateľské prostredie plné nepriateľov. Aj keď Snake získava rôzne zbrane, dôraz sa kladie na používanie tajnosti, aby sa zabránilo konfrontáciám. Po ceste môžete nájsť množstvo predmetov a pomôcok, ktoré vám v tom pomôžu, vrátane detektorov pohybu na sledovanie nepriateľských vojakov a kartónovej škatule s ochrannou známkou série, pod ktorú sa môže Snake skryť, aby sa vyhol vizuálnej detekcii.
Väčšina hry sa odohráva vonku vo fiktívnom dažďovom pralese Sovietskeho zväzu a využitie tohto rozmanitého prostredia na maximum je často kľúčom k úspechu. Z nových funkcií sa kladie dôraz najmä na maskovanie a využívanie samotného prostredia džungle, aby vás nepriateľ nevidel. Pokročilý radar z predchádzajúcich hier bol odstránený v prospech jednoduchého detektora pohybu a sonarového systému vhodnejšieho pre herné časové obdobie.
Percentuálna hodnota nazývaná „kamuflážny index“ meria vystavenie Snakea na stupnici od negatívnych hodnôt (vysoko viditeľné a priťahujúce pozornosť) až po 100% (úplne neviditeľné pre nepriateľa). Aby sa minimalizovala viditeľnosť, hráč musí prepínať medzi rôznymi maskovacími uniformami a farbami na tvár, aby splynul s prostredím; napríklad nosenie uniformy so vzorom kôry, keď sa opierate o strom, alebo nosenie pruhovanej farby na tvári, keď sa skrývate vo vysokej tráve. K dispozícii sú aj iné maskovacie zariadenia, ako napríklad falošná gaviálna hlava na zníženie pravdepodobnosti odhalenia vo vode alebo maska ​​opice.

Napriek zásadným podobnostiam prináša Snake Eater mnoho nových aspektov hrateľnosti, ktoré neboli prítomné v predchádzajúcich hrách Metal Gear, vrátane kamufláže, nového bojového systému z ruky do ruky nazývaného „boj na blízko“ alebo „CQC“, merača výdrže a systém zranenia a liečby.

Filmové spracovanie mi zážitok ešte viac spríjemnilo. Cut-scény, zvukový dizajn boli fantastické.

Zo začiatku som mal problém si zvyknúť na ovladanie, ale postupom času som si zvykol. Bugy alebo niečo také som nezachytil a hra sa mi veľmi páčila. Mnohí sa sťažujú na to, že tento PC port nemá rozlišenie 1080p. Ak vám nevadí hrať na 720p, tak hru si užijete tak či tak. KONAMI postupne pridáva patche, ktoré dúfam, že nám umožnia hrať aj na 1080p.


KLADY:
+ Filmové spracovanie
+ Dej
+ Zbrane
+ Hratelnosť
+ Zvukový dizajn
+ Stealth
+ Atmosféra
+ Hudba
+ Zbieranie rôznych predmetov
+ Hracia doba


ZÁPORY:
- Ovládanie zo začiatku celkom náročné
- Kamera

Pre niekoho dosť lacný port, ale mne sa hra páčila aj tak. A silne dúfam, že aj vám.

Install this for better resolutions (1080p, 1440p, 4K, and even ultrawide):
https://github.com/Lyall/MGSHDFix


Install this to significantly improve sound quality (it's worse than the PS3 version without this):
https://www.nexusmods.com/metalgearsolid3mc/mods/4

Now it's a half decent port. Enjoy.

A lazy and quite frankly unacceptable port of an absolute masterpiece of a game. Thankfully a few essential mods provided by the community changes absolutely everything and makes it worth playing. If you head over to Nexus or an alternative host of where these mods are available, grab the following:-

- MGSHDFix v1.0.1+
- High Resolution Textures AI Upscaled
- MGS3MC Better Audio
- MGS3 Crouch Walk

These 4 alone completely revolutionise the experience with wholesale resolution support, significantly better audio quality, vastly improved textures, and the ability to walk whilst couching. Konami get absolutely no credit for this whatsoever and the community have done more in 72 hours than they have done in allegedly 3 years.

Free Metal Gear Solid 4.

whoever locked this game to 720p and shipped it out deserves a healthy cqc slam to the ground

This time i've got twelve shots...

Is it a lazy port of the HD version?: Yes
Does Konami suck?: Yes
Is it still one of the best MGS games of all time?: Yes
Do I still recommend it?: Yes

This is the HD Remake made by Bluepoint Games, with the additional screen-play book.
What this essentially means is:

- 720p ONLY, no support for other resolutions, no ultrawide support
- Audio quality is worse in this version than the HD Collection on PS3/XBOX360
- Game is locked to 60fps
- Texture quality is the same as in the HD collection, a far fetch from what i would consider "HD" by todays standards
- Mouse and Keyboard only emulate controller input
- spelling errors, bugs and glitches from the HD Collection still persist in this version

Truth be told, this is lazy, but mods can atleast make this port more bearable, and atleast you won't get any engine slowdown like in the PS3 HD Collection. This all doesn't sound so bad until you take one thing into account:

KONAMI PUBLICLY CONDEMNS MODDING!

Giving a company money when they don't even implement basic support for resolutions other than 1280x720p is a horrible idea.


So, all that said, here is my definitive guide for anyone who wants to relive this masterpiece before the release of MGS: Delta.

Step 1: Install MGSHDFix [github.com]
This fixes practically all issues regarding your choice of screen resolution and aspect ratio.

Step 2: Install MGS3MC Better Audio Mod [www.nexusmods.com]
Self-explanatory, fixes the low-quality audio

Step 3: Install Upscaled Textures [www.nexusmods.com]
This will upscale the ingame textures to a much nicer resolution. Not perfect, but makes the whole experience much nicer. Do consider looking through Nexusmods for more tweaks, there are a lot of smaller improvements for other textures that have not been upscaled.

Step 4 (Optional): Install MGS3 Crouch Walk[www.nexusmods.com]
Implements crouch walking and sneaking using animations from the 3DS version of MGS3. Experimental, adjusts the Camo-rating dynamically but CQC doesn't work from the crouch stance. Though, overall a great addition to the game.

Also i'd recommend a programm called "Lossless Scaling", available for purchase on the steam store, adds frame-generation for a much smoother experience for users with high-refresh rate monitors.

Once you are finished, enjoy one of the best games of all times! Kept you waiting, huh?

As a long time enthusiast fan of the series, I'd like to clarify a few things about the collection in plain English.

The PC Master Collection, as far as MGS2 and MGS3 are concerned, are essentially just the original 2011 Bluepoint HD collection ported and running natively as an .EXE. As it stands right now, these are incredibly bare minimum ports, with the most attention paid to cosmetic things such as allowing you to customize which controller glyphs appear in game and offering multiple regional versions to be played. Bundled up in a fancy Unity wrapper which functions as a launcher for the games. KBM support is only barely serviceable, the games are locked to 720 upscaled (as of writing). MGS1 is a standout disappointment since it is an emulated PSX version with terrible filtering which cannot be disabled. (as of writing)

However, even in this current state, this is still likely the current best way to play MGS2 and 3 specifically. They function 1:1 with the Bluepoint HD collection and has has significantly lowered the bar in terms of making these games accessible, moddable and preservable for the future.

To explain why does need some context. Your available options for getting into the series (specifically with 2 and 3) prior to this collection were admittedly numerous, but came with a lot of caveats and flaws of their own. Especially if you didn't own, or didnt have access to consoles.

Your first option - obtaining the original bluepoint HD collection for PS3 or Xbox 360. This route has gradually become less and less accessible over time as it relies on obtaining both the game and the actual last gen consoles. Digital copies are (and has been) at the mercy of being delisted from the xbox store/psn as well. Not an easy sell to get somebody into the series.

Your second option - emulation for the series has made major strides in recent years. However, people vastly overestimate how accessible it really is. Emulation does require relatively decent hardware to work well. Current builds of PCSX2 are completely playable. There are however many long standing rendering and slowdown issues still present with 2 and 3. The other issue present are the reliance on pressure sensitive buttons for the games, which not many controllers nowadays actually support. It's possible within PCSX2 to remap the sensitivity ranges to compensate for this, but it only adds to the barrier of entry requiring a lot of trial and error just to simply play the game as it was intended. Emulating the HD Collection on RPCS3, is in a similar state. RPCS3 is updated frequently, but the HD Collection is still marked as only "Ingame"[wiki.rpcs3.net]. Admittedly, many of these issues have been slowly ironed out bringing it closer and closer to a playable state if you can afford to run it with the overhead. The 360 emulator xenia is not very viable and has an even worse overhead.

Your third option, Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2 were one of the few lucky games of the series to of received native PC ports of their own back in the day. Whilst the core of the game was there, these were incredibly buggy releases that needed numerous fixes to become playable. Driver updates and newer Windows releases relegated them to becoming less and less stable overtime. Things have changed since then, with the release of fanmade patches such as V's fix which implements many new features and fixes many graphical issues.[github.com]. Turning it into one of the best ways to play MGS2.

... However, MGS3 is still the odd one out. It never received a native PC port until now. Even in its bare minimum state, being based on the Bluepoint version of the game out of the gate obliterates the barrier to entry to actually getting into the series with far better frame pacing, less texture compression, insanely faster load times for menus, revised control schemes based on the 360 version of the game to avoid the pressure sensitive button problem (L3 raises and lowers weapon) and a completely unencrypted file structure allowing insanely easy modding access. Within hours of release, there is already a basic ASI loader plugin to forcibly fix the resolution, for instance.[github.com]. There are also specific fixes to many niche effects which were broken in the 2011 bluepoint versions

Could more of been done? Could they of gone to the levels of 343 did with Master Chief Collection and totally revamped the games with fixes, insanely good support, new features, restored features, etc? Absolutely. There are supposedly patches in the pipeline to fix a couple of the minor issues. But as it stands, at least as far as MGS3 is concerned, this is completely serviceable. You can now very easily get a friend into the Metal Gear series. With time, once the community have poured over the files and implemented their own fixes, this will single-handedly be the best way to play MGS 2 and 3 for both newcomers to the series, and those who are savvy enough with the series such as speedrunners and modders. I'm looking forward to somebody fixing the stinger missile blur in mgs2, which iirc has never worked on any re-release of the game to date.

This review rings especially true if the current leaks are to be believed, and Vol2 of the Master collection will include MGS4. Currently, there are very few routes to actually play MGS4 start to finish without owning a ps3 and the original game. I'm eager to see it finally on PC so it can be preserved and played in a far better form factor and improved performance.

Metal Gear Solid is a legendary series. One that has made a major impact on my life. I want to see it preserved as best it can, and made as accessible as possible. This release, has a few problems and is bare minimum, but that bare minimum goes a long, long ways in making it accessible to fans. No matter how you slice it, no matter how bad this could of been - it's a win for game preservation.

Took a modder a couple of hours to add 4k, 1440p, and 1080p support for this game, goes to show how cheap konami was with this port
