Konami has released a new patch for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. This patch is 114MB in size and according to its release notes it fixes an issue when using an Energy Wall while equipped with certain pieces of developed gear, as well as other issues.
Unfortunately, though, this patch also breaks mod support, meaning that a lot of mods are not currently compatible with it. PC gamers have reported on the official Steam forum crashing issues when using mods so we strongly suggest to either play the game in offline mode (in case you want to keep using the mods) or collect and remove your mods until their creators update them.
Since Metal Gear Solid 5 is a really old game, I don’t expect a lot of modders to update their mods. So yeah, it kind of sucks that this latest update breaks mod compatibility but at least you’ve been warned.
Oh, and no; this patch does not add the rumoured/cancelled third chapter or anything particularly impressive.
As always, Steam will download this patch the next time you launch its client (unless you are in offline mode of course) and below you can find its complete changelog.
