NEW UPDATED FIX

Old Fix, by Sergeanur

Comments

Intro

So, Konami has re released Bluepoints work on the 7th Gen HD Collection and even made some fixes, but bafflingly decided to lock it to 720p. On PC. In 2023.

It took just a few hours for a modder to implement a fix and im sure better ones will continue to come. Let's face it, this is one of those, buy it and fix it with mods port, sadly. The extras they added are very cool, but come on, work on the core games, darn it.
So, let's fix the game

NEW UPDATED FIX

Its much better the the previous effort and contains many improvements. Just follow the creators instructions on that link

Old Fix, by Sergeanur

From:
https://github.com/Sergeanur/MGSResolutionPatch

MGSResolutionPatch
This is an experimental ASI Plugin for Steam releases of Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3. It allows to change ingame resolution via ini config.

Recommended for play with MGS 3 at resolutions 1920x1080 and 3840x2160. The plugin is compatible with MGS 2, however increased resolution introduces noticeable bugs to the UI. Resolutions other than 1920x1080 and 3840x2160 are not guaranteed to produce an adequate image (it might be stretched), but I didn't test every possible resolution that is out there, so you might as well try whatever resolution you want.

Installation
Download the latest Ultimate ASI Loader from here: https://github.com/ThirteenAG/Ultimate-ASI-Loader/releases/download/x64-latest/d3d11-x64.zip

Put d3d11.dll from Ultimate ASI Loader into your MGS2/MGS3 directory

Download the latest MGSResolutionPatch from here: https://github.com/Sergeanur/MGSResolutionPatch/releases
Put MGSResolutionPatch.asi and MGSResolutionPatch.ini into your MGS2/MGS3 directory
Open MGSResolutionPatch.ini with a text editor to change the resolution to the one you desire

Remember, it can bug the UI in MGS2 currently

All credit goes to Sergeanur and the project has an issues page on github
I just want the solution to be available on steam itself

@frt
Stop making excuses for their laziness.
Just because they ported the HD collection doesn't mean they couldn't have included resolution options, which are pretty much expected whenever you port something on PC.
Even the 1999 Resident Evil 2 PC port had them so there's absolutely no excuse in 2023.

"but bafflingly decided to lock it to 720p. On PC. In 2023."

Yes because they ported the HD Collection versions like Konami said they were. Those ran at 720p, so these 1:1 ports of HD Collection versions that ran at 720p will run at 720p on PC in 2023.
