SaveMGO is officially canon. MGS4 in MC2 has strings referencing SaveMGO right inside the executable. The original DLC might only exist today because SaveMGO kept it available all these years. My reaction to the news is in the video. Feeling proud 🫡. #mgs4 #mc2 #savemgo

As one person involved in SaveMGO I have to say I am really enjoying this remaster. I think it is excellent. I had not played MGS4 in over 10 years and I don't speak for everyone. I think it is great though.

Only negative is the compressed audio for me really but they thought about a lot of things too imo.

if you cannot see the text:

I'll take this as confirmation that Konami is totally fine with the project existing lol Konami redemption arc going strong.

It is also possible this is a result of Konami's porting team using LLM-assisted coding and this string being picked up is one of the mistakes that slipped by, this appearing in an official executeable is more odd than some 'homage', Konami, even today wouldn't endorse modding.

That's the point. It is not intentional probably! It's possible they needed preservation servers basically to get the dlc. Either way savemgo is canon now as it made it somewhere in the code 😂.

Just in case. I'm not saying they used llm but saying the point is that it was not intentional. Just in case it's misunderstood

Any chance you guys can make savemgo work for the steam release?

So far this guy TriggerHappy on Discord has indicated to many he has no plans. Just basing of his words in the Discord. He's basically the main pushing force in regards to such things for the most part. Never say never or that someone could not do it though I suppose.

Trigger's official statement:

That sucks coz my device can run master collection 2 mgs4 but can't do rpcs3 mgs4 And having it available on the steam version would be better on the long run

Google canon now too

I don’t get how you guys can keep MGO2 going but Konami refused to make it part of the HD 2 Collection.

Really hoping MGO2 comes back as free dlc 🙏🏼

Wait so your saying there’s a chance ?

Out of the loop what’s mc2?

Sorry master collection volume 2

Thanks ever since Kohima left I checked out of Konami. I was going for an official relaunch and this news got me excited but it doesn’t appear they will be doing so.

I really hope they bring back MGO2. Konami literally used SaveMGO files to boot the offline Extra Menu and DLC assets smoothly. Huge respect to SaveMGO👌

Such a shame there is no MGO2 in the remaster

Still waiting on my thank you for Chair Race xD

Love that word is spreading about this awesome project. Recently plugged SaveMGO on an episode of the Metal Gear Mondays podcast. Keep up the great work!

oooo link me up to that and I will share with the team!

Sorry for the delay! We mention it in episode #259. Fairly deep in, though. When we record #261, I'll be sure to plug SaveMGO in the first few minutes. Hell, I'll do it every episode of our MGS4 coverage (rest of the year).

Lol Ur good and don't have to. It's cool see see and listen.

@MGO2PC Respect 🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡

👏🔥

this is awesome

If MGO came back as an update for this new collection Konami is back for sure

Gotta love it. testament to the work you guys have accomplished.

This is why preservation is important, good work lads

I love that!

Does it work somehow on ps5?

This post is just showing that someone found a reference to savemgo in the mgs4 exe on pc. Nothing to do with ps5 etc.

This is awesome to see. Konami did a fantastic job with this port and SaveMGO being named in the code is sick. Preservation is key 🙌

that's insane, well done to the fans behind it to make this happen

Me gustaría jugar de nuevo, pero solo tengo PS3… en el PC no me funciona

Que veut dire canon ici ? .@grok
