|Comments=Intro FMV froze about halfway through with speedhacks enabled. Disabling speedhacks fixed this but the opening cutscene initially had no audio (though this may have been due to enabling Dolby Digital 5.1). Disabling this setting fixed the lack of audio but the cutscene afterwards (when Snake boards the tanker) also crashed. I don't know what caused this as the cutscene didn't crash after a reset. Lag is mostly limited to cutscenes and is only very brief and not particularly noticeable during gameplay (I only noticed it when using the Stinger and in the "Fission Mailed" room towards the end). Cutscenes sometimes drop to as low as 50% speed but this is usually during zoomed-out shots where there often isn't any dialogue or music, so it's not particularly noticeable. The cutscene with Fortune on the bridge was the only time the game lagged noticeably for a long time. Although they claim to be fixed in the build I used, blur still only affected the left side of the screen and Ocelot and Fatman's skin was still too dark. Setting blending accuracy to high fixed this but made the game unplayably laggy. There was also some warping/stretching on certain models in the codec (most notably Rose), often when FMVs were playing. Fully playable. | |||
