Hi guys, I work in PR for Capcom and I just had some MonHun shit hit my desk so here's what I know: >Is definitely Monster Hunter 5 >Planned launch title for NX and a New 3DS only title >Shockingly coming out in America before Japan because the NX is too >No G rank as expected >Game features amiibo functionality: Couple of monster amiibos launching with game: New cover monster, Rathalos, Tigrex, etc. they all unlock unique quests in the guild, older amiibos like Link and Mario can be used to unlock quests for their gear too. >Planned crossplay between New 3DS and NX, not really sure how that's meant to work but that's the bullet point I've got.
For those wondering, Nintendo has sent us Q4 for the NX release date so hopefully we'll get an official announcement of this game soon.
You know, you're absolutely right. It's sad, but the only way we'll ever get MH on a half-acceptable rig again is on the NX.
I don't mind buying an NX for MH alone, usually get a solid 500-1k hours out of it. I would kill for PS4. But I know that won't happen.
Mason Martin
MonHun is the only thing that'd make me consider getting the NX, whatever it is, at this point. But with Generations coming out in July, I can't see it being so soon. Though multiple teams are a thing, I guess.
Kayden Lewis
OP here, Generations is just being worked on by the translation team now, as far as I know there were only a handful of active coders needed for the translation. From what I know MonHun 5 has been in development since the day Cross went gold.
Cameron Wood
>It's MHX HD That would be true suffering Though it would certainly be the definitive edition. I don't know about New 3DS, but it's clear that Old 3DS models aren't up to snuff. Gets sub-30 frames in towns. Really heartbreaking. Still put in a solid 200 hours though, it was alright/10.
Brandon Nelson
>Shockingly coming out in America before Japan because the NX is too
Haha, no
Lincoln Gonzalez
The day MH locks quests behind amiibos is the day I quit the franchise.
Bentley Ross
>with Generations coming out in July, I can't see it being so soon
That came out in September. We're just getting the translated version. There's another Monster Hunter title coming out before March 2017.
Evan Robinson
I'd be fine if it was super shitter "plz give me 200 mega potions for turning in a map" quests.
But actual content especially after the G rank Metallic Rath DLC bullshit, hell no.
Brandon Ramirez
any and all amiibo support is going to be shit availability isn't great, especially in some areas of the world, good thing you can actually "pirate" amiibo data
still won't buy the game if it gets amiibo support
I mean the entire thread is bullshit and not true so whatever.
Levi Morales
>Monster Hunter releasing in America before Japan >On a console what a load of shit
Brody Ross
5 would have had plenty of time to be developed by now. Cross was a low budget game which was rushed out by the B team.
Adam Brown
If this is true, fuck I hope the NX isn't a complete piece of shit. I really want to play a MH game ona proper platform, preferably PC.
Jacob Kelly
I just want a MH with great graphics added to the gameplay come on Nintendo/Capcom
Lucas Reed
Sounds like lots of wishful thinking from a very deluded MHfag. Monster Hunter releasing in USA before Japan? Keep dreaming.
Sebastian Scott
The main team has mostly been working on Stories though
Asher Gray
>I work in PR for Capcom No you fucking don't
Matthew Cooper
Already happened.
Henry Clark
in before "buy mh3g came out before that" yeah. on a handheld. the console version came out in the US first.
Justin Cox
>Hi guys, I Fake
Sebastian Collins
>Generations was localised >this won't be
Evan Martin
>The console version came out in the US first
James Collins
Let's be sad together, friend. I'm about to go pick up some lunch. Want something? Maybe we can speculate what the MH Stories amiibo will do.
Hunter Sullivan
Guys I work in a place unrelated to video games but I can tell you NX is not a powerful system.
Angel Baker
...
Angel Reed
>2 million unit range >mainline new generation entry yeah no, this one's for something else (maybe stories)
Isaac Smith

Logan Williams
Capcom has already told investors Stories would be localized.
Wow, you sure put together a nice list of extremely safe guesses that should be obvious to anyone who knows shit about MH.
my dad works at nintendo/10
William Harris
>doesn't really benefit too much from a powerful system So? More power is always better.
Jose Gomez
Is it? I mean MHO can have all the polygons it wants, but all of that being underpinned by shitty 2nd gen gameplay and lame inputs make me prefer even a 3DS title.
Ayden Perez
...
Nathan Hughes
>another MH game will be fucking gimped due to having to work on the 3DS fucking hell, fuck Nintendo for making such a shitty ass weak portable and fuck capcom and all the gooks that prefer portables to actual system
Easton Wood
...
Eli Miller
You're not wrong.
Jose Cook
Prove it faggot. Tell me the name of the first file under the Monster Hunter Generations video tab of the press extranet.
Leo Fisher
...
Jose Collins
Fuck yeah. Thanks.
One downside now, though, is that I got Monster Hunter Explore ages ago in my phone. I don't know if I should keep playing or wait and play in English.
Lucas Barnes
...
Angel Garcia
Do this or fuck off.
Mason Bailey
It's not an abundance of power thats causing that though
Liam Morales
...
Juan Morales
In a roundabout way, yes. Where the budget goes impacts the end result quite a lot. In this case it got blown on a bunch of Cry Engine stuff.
Brayden Mitchell
...
Oliver Evans
Actually mate to be real honest, I may have fucked up. It says "domestic".
Is Explore STILL Canada only? What the fuck is that?
Leo Lee
that would be shitty direction. Your saying if the mho guys made that game for a weaker system the game would be better?
Cooper Fisher
OP confirmed faggot
Tyler Lewis
...
Jacob Bell
I really don't like that Rathalos's movements. He seems completely weightless, like he's sliding around in the air.
Matthew Sanchez
CryEngine stuff are.. you know, already built into the engine.
Julian Wright
There is no good gameplay without making the decision to do big spending on having enough staff who are worth a damn focused on making it. Where the money goes matters. MHO is very thrifty with how it develops gameplay.
Matthew Hernandez
...
Easton Hernandez
...
Parker Walker
They're not mutually exclusive. You can have both great graphics and great gameplay.
Asher Watson
I saw domestic, but the line right above it says world-wide. I guess I should still only be cautiously optimistic, but at least there's a glimmer of hope. And yeah, just Canada. I'd love to understand the game better and why it won't let me take certain quests, but I don't want to have to regrind for gear.
