Summary

  • Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater introduces a faster camouflage system, enabling players to seamlessly swap camos.
  • A new video highlights the improved camo system, addressing the clunky mechanic from the original game.

Konami has verified an improved feature for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, allowing gamers to quickly change Naked Snake’s camouflage, a significant upgrade from the original game’s pace. Beyond a complete visual makeover, Konami is also refining and optimizing mechanics to deliver a contemporary gaming experience, focusing on areas that could appear somewhat cumbersome in today’s standards.

The Metal Gear Solid series boasts a rich background that began with Kojima’s innovative spin on the top-down stealth action-adventure game, Metal Gear. Konami launched this series on the PS1 in 1998, offering a fully three-dimensional gaming experience and using the console’s capabilities to generate cinematic cutscenes and intricate storylines influenced by films. The franchise has expanded across numerous titles since then, but MGS3 is generally regarded as the fan favorite. This installment invites players to sneak through the jungle as Naked Snake, overcoming a variety of challenges such as unique bosses, wildlife, hunger, and much more. Despite being an enduring classic, the upcoming remake aims to refine various elements to bring it up-to-date with current standards.

Recently, Konami unveiled a brief video demonstrating an improved camouflage mechanic for the new “MGSD: Snake Eater,” addressing the cumbersome system in “MGS3.” In the displayed footage, players can swiftly change their camouflage within less than three seconds. Those who played the original game will recall how sluggish this function was. In “MGS3,” players needed to pause the game, navigate through the menu, select the “Camo” option, choose one, then exit the menu and recommence playing. This procedure made the game feel slow, disrupting one of the key aspects of “MGS” games—immersion.

The camouflage system, on the other hand, was a valuable asset that greatly improved gameplay during its time, offering an extra layer of stealth and allowing players to think outside the box when confronting enemies. This modification is positive news for the game. Similarly, the codec mechanism, which has been around since the early Metal Gear games, has evolved from one title to another. However, we’re yet to understand how Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater will approach it.
