Hello MGS3 Runners! It's been about 2 weeks since the discussion we had about visual game mods.
Now is the time for the actual vote:
The vote will close on Jan 16th 12AM PST
Hello everyone!
There’s a discussion I want to have with you all when it comes to Metal Gear Solid 3 PC game mods. Mainly visual mods.
There have been so many sick visual game mods I’ve seen over the past few months since the PC release of MGS3, and people such as Totorock have been working extremely hard on beautiful visual mods for this game.
However, when talking about game mods, we all agree that they should NEVER give an advantage to the runner.
We already ban all sorts of mods that affect any sort of gameplay, but visual game mods can have the ability to give players an unfair advantage compared to those with no mods at all.
Two of the biggest sections that this can affect are visual mods that make bosses easier to see(The Boss hiding and The Boss in the final boss fight)
The discussion I want to have with you all, is mainly what visual game mods should and should not be allowed?
Which category of mods should we allow, or should we ban them all?
Should we only ban boss mods, and anything that affects their arena?
Your input here is extremely valuable, and we can make a vote later for what people think should happen.
Hello MGS3 Runners.
There was a discovery made recently that has forced a change for the "All Kerotans" category.
It was recently discovered that the 'Kerotan" rank on NG+ will still show(even if the player does not get all the Kerotans)if the previous save file had the "Kerotan" rank.
-What does this mean?
Although it is possible for verifiers to check every single Kerotan and see if it was shot, there is still a hint of doubt that the rank could still be achieved without hitting certain Kerotans(Bike sections).
-Moving Forward
Kerotan runs MUST be done on NG and not NG+. Previous runs that were ran on NG+ will not be removed, as the discovery wasn't made until recently
