Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is one of the best examples of cross-platform development, great optimization on all systems and even some excellent cross-generation performance scaling. The Hideo Kojima developed Fox Engine truly shines, enabling some beautiful visual artistry to be achieved. Even though The Phantom Pain does not quite match the best looking titles out there being developed exclusively for current-gen platforms, it is a testament of great mastery in video game development. The PC version provides the highest visual quality, edging the current-gen versions of the game, with higher resolution options and some enhanced textures. Nexus Mods user Angelo has released a mod which enables even higher quality visuals for the PC version of Metal Gear Solid V.
Updates:
1.1.1 There was another crash on Extra High lighting. Should be totally fixed now.
1.1
Increased shadow resolution on Extra High
Decreased dynamic shadow casting lights on Extra High as it was causing crashes. As a result, extreme settings should also be mostly playable at 60fps for powerful PCs.
Fixed FXAA not applying.
Extra Extra High Settings
Info: Modified graphics settings to turn up the quality further than the game allows by default. Extra High requires a VERY good PC to run at 60fps.
