there are way too many "helper monsters" in this fucking game
Im trying to fight the gendrome and he is not hard at all, but whenever i try to aim my bow at him one of his stupid fucking minions does a flying drop kick that paralyzes me from off screen.
every area in this desert has like ten of them and two more respawn for each one i kill.
where the fucking shiny beetles at this is 3U's carpenterbug problem all over again
Adrian Ortiz
>helper monsters
You're fighting the bitch-tier pussy monsters who are slightly larger than their friends. Wait til you fight the real shit, the little guys won't be there anymore and you'll wish they were.
Parker Cooper
you can find them in the two big sandy areas of the desert and the tiny little caves connected to them
they are very rare though, so good luck getting the ten you need for that piece of armor :^)
Jason Brooks
It's vastly easier to fight one big monster over a bunch of smaller ones
I can't keep track of the movements of a million annoying genprey but one seregios or a gore magala is a lot easier to predict
Kevin Cooper
>bow >against a drome
Jeremiah Gonzalez
i am playing gunner for the first time this game and i dont know the best strategies
Juan Thompson
So kill them or use dungbombs you dipshit. just stop playing now lol.
Parker Barnes
you did not even read my post you dumbass
Gabriel Allen
That's the point of the dromes. They hunt in packs. If you're fighting anything else, they either fuck off or die from collateral.
Isaac Foster
Again this retard. Progress the game and you might find out. Got 20+ of them. Kiranico is also up with english to spoonfeed your casual ass.
Isaiah Butler
Stop aiming your bow so much (let alone against a gendrome). Ready the arrow, dont ever stop moving, and fire at the right distance and range. It'll become very fluid for you eventually
Only press the aim button when you're aiming for specific body parts with rapid shots or going from head-tail/wing-wing with pierce shot.
Look up optimal distance. Basically if you're too close or too far you get a damage penalty. You wanna be around 2-3 rolls away from the monster. You know you're at the right distance when your shots have a huge white flash and the screen shakes.
Don't spam the powershot (not to be confused with Power coatings) either.
Justin Green
why not spam powershot? it's more damage, right?
Austin Bell
Should I finish 4U or just pirate this game and play it instead?
Brayden Anderson
Because it uses alot of stamina which could be better used rolling, and it leaves you wide open for an attack due to its ending animation lag.
It's generally a good idea to use it alot (and even if you're out of stamina you can still use it due to stamina regen) but it's not always the best choice.
Hunter Sanders
finish 4u
I was having a ton of fun going through g-rank in 4, but I dropped it and bought this because Sup Forums said it was good
now i am bitter and angry and wish I was still playing 4
Luke Myers
what's wrong with g
Lincoln Cooper
i'm also playing 4u for now. MHGen just seems a bit easy.
It's been awhile but I believe it's based on how many times you "flash" when you're holding your attack.
Level 1 will be no charge at all Level 2 will be the first flash and has a slight attack boost Level 3 will be the second flash and has a bigger attack boost
Juan Richardson
the amount of time you need to hold your shot, pretty much like the GS charge, if you just tap the fire button the arrow will be a rapid shot, lv2 will be a piercing arrow and so on
Gabriel Gomez
>runs the same on new3ds and regular 3ds >looks like shit >barely any new maps >new maps are shit >returning maps are shit >barely any new monsters >all subspecies except gold and silver raths removed >cooking is overcomplicated for no reason >gunlance nerfed HARD for no reason
Jace Martin
ouch, I guess I'll stick with 4U then, thanks for the info
John Jones
Will i need a N3ds for MH gen?
Thomas James
>I was having fun with the highest difficulty of the previous MH >I'm comparing it to the current MH lowest difficulty and its not fun
Who would've thunk.
Christian Martinez
uhhh no, the difficulty has nothing to do with why I hate gen
Cameron Gonzalez
Nothing is wrong with it. Unless you're an autistic faggot like , you'll enjoy it.
Blake Price
I play monster hunter, I am autistic.
Easton Rodriguez
All bow shots are one of 3 types and depend on the bow. Rapid fires a small bunch of arrows in a tight formation. Arrows spread out vertically. This is the bread and butter shot. Great for small enemies and hitting specific body parts. Pierce fires a single powerful arrow that penetrates and will hit all the hitzones/hitboxes on a monster that it flies through. Great for HUGE monsters and shit like Plesioth. Horrible on small monsters or the Dromes. Scatter fires and a horizontal fan shaped formation. It's good for applying status/element or with closerange coating but can be pretty meh otherwise because typically trying to hit a monster with the entire spread will make you leave the optimal distance or half the arrows wont hit the weakspot.
Luke Butler
you forgot no g rank
Gavin Morales
>complain that new game runs worse than the old game >"OMG YOU'RE AN AUTIST SHUT UP AND STOP TALKING. SOME OF US /ENJOY/ EATING SHIT"
Jackson Butler
Then I guess its these ? Congrats, you did it son. You're even more retarded now.
Christopher Wilson
that's not an argument. if you disagree with my points, please present your counters or go home :^)
Carson Sullivan
Get your gunlance the hottest it can go but not over. Wyvernfire Congratulations your gunlance is now locked at red heat and cant overheat via shelling. Enjoy your free attack boost.
Logan Long
My argument is that you're literally incapable of enjoying things because you got your head too far up your ass. Please discuss.
Ryan Ramirez
It runs about the same, which still isn't great, but it's fine. That's also just one point out of the nine. I'm just not a retard who has to be a contrarian faggot because he feels alone in this world and the only satisfaction he gets out of his life is by shitting on good things. I bet you wrote a rant on Facebook or Twitter about how Monster Hunter Generations is "a big piece of shit" to get some kind of satisfaction out of knowing that you are stirring up controversy for the sake of doing so. But in reality, everyone you care about who read that post thinks you are a big fucking faggot and doesn't even want to talk to you.
Why do you even breathe? Clearly your life is meaningless. You can't even get enjoyment out of a game series you enjoy because you are so fucking jaded that you have to bash it for literally no reason.
Don't ever reply to me again.
Logan Long
you don't actually want to discuss monster hunter, you just want to make people mad and post smug images
well you are wasting your time because I don't have any emotions
Adam Jackson
Why are prowlers so fun Sup Forums? I've been going for the meta prowler build, just need to get to level 15 for Attack Up L, but i'm just tearing through the monsters with the boomerangs. I hope they're here to stay on the next monhun games
Christian Rivera
it's almost as if it's an anniversary spin-off game
Ayden Turner
mh gen is locked at 30fps while 4u would run at 60 sometimes
how is that "about the same?"
Ryan Morris
...
Owen Edwards
What's the meta?
I always make a bomb cat so I wonder if bomb Prowler would be fun.
Charles Williams
- Assist trait - Emergency Retreat - Big boomerangs and Piercing boomerangs
As for skills - Boomerang Pro, Attack Up L and then whatever you want, I have earplugs, for example
Liam Bailey
Meta is Full Boomerang.
Ryder Harris
Ah yes. I remember back when I used to rage at the game like this.
Adam Gray
i am saving this for future use
Ryder Morris
the cooking does seem really really silly this time around
Oliver Kelly
woah didnt know it was so detailed. i just assumed charging the bow to max was always the best option. thanks ill keep this in mind.
Hudson Edwards
>some jaggi comes and knocks you over just as you're about to fuck up the monsters face
Carter Collins
>not having super armor on every single attack your weapons has
Jaxon Powell
I've found that there's no need to stock up on pickaxes and nets anymore since I can just use the prowler to gather shit instead when I'm farming. The fact that they don't get affected by hot/cold or stamina just adds to their convenience.
Michael Cruz
He probably meant Jaggia. Jaggia tackle/Rhenoplos,Bullfango rushes don't care about super armors.
Jaxon Myers
Yeah that's what I meant. They do that annoying hip check thing.
Angel Ramirez
It's amazing. No stamina, run around for days. Cold? Heat? Stamina debuffs? Like I give a shit. Monster going crazy zooming around the field like a maniac? i'll just hide underground and heal. You don't even cart if you die, as long as you have acorns you don't cart.
It's almost kinda cheaty honestly
Hudson Cook
How are the dual blades?
Bentley Jackson
hey, me too
Thomas Hill
Never stop moveing retuard
Aaron Lewis
how do i get good at aerial GS, i cant tell if its good or not, im too used to going for full charge
Eli James
No.
Liam Martinez
>tfw got disconnected when I was having fun
Jaxon Robinson
Mostly correct, but scatter is the objectively best shot.
Chase Gomez
hows their damage though? living forever wont mean much if i can't kill the later multiplayer bosses in a timely fashion
Isaac Adams
you can full charge in the air bro.
Michael Fisher
their damage is the same as the other cats which means they're gay, but that's not why they're useful
Chase Anderson

Hudson Wright
Welcome to the monster hunter fanbase, damage control, deflections and cries of"git gud" anytime you give a proper criticism against MH's bad design is all you'll find here.
Jonathan Turner
I've been trying to get into mhg but it just ain't clicking
most of the styles feel like shit because you either lose key aspects of the weapon or because their hunter arts are just utter dogshit.
They removed basically everything fun from CB and nerfed IG's dmg into the ground
Hammer and HH feel like they're at least a generation behind and completely unloved by the devs.
So far most of the fights have been 1st or 2nd gen mons that have not been updated since their initial release so add spam, instant charges, and tail spins ahoy.
I've been trying to get into SnS since its oils and HA aren't garbage and it did not get gutted like other weapons did and it works, but I just feel like the game really just is not that fun at all.
How do I enjoy this?
Parker Smith
this, i love monster hunter but the fanbase is absolutely retarded
Nolan Harris
did you enjoy any of the other monster hunter games?
you could try playing a gunner for the first time like i am. I'm getting a little frustrated getting used to all the new mechanics and controls but it feels like the first time i played freedom unite on my psp again
Jackson Bennett
I loved FU, liked tri, enjoyed 3U, and then had the "this is amazing" for most of 4U which transitioned into "what the fuck did they do to the balance, this is fucking awful" come endgame
This just feels like the worst parts of 4U exacerbated with all the new toys to play with having safety caps or being half broken to start with.
David Butler
"what the fuck did they do to the balance, this is fucking awful" come endgame
elaborate
Jaxson Brown
GS, ranged, DB, je suis monte, and CB
those were endgame weapons
You tried to use anything else and you were just ineffective in comparison. Apex mons being some of the worst fights, the trap spam being so very real, and everything just devolving into rushing burst dmg
Eli Murphy
Is my circle pad pro broken or does ZR and ZL not do shit?
Leo Walker
So is the US version censored in any way?
Ayden Anderson
So they nerfed Switch Axe and Hammer?
Asher Lee
no, they nerfed charge blade, insect glaive, and gunlance
Oliver Carter
b-but im sure we will have a whole year of DLC like they did with MH4U r-right?
Landon Brooks
Why nerf Gunlance? No one used it
Adrian Carter
They tried to buff it They did a very poor job of buffing it
Joseph Wood
I see for the DLC guild cards, the game does have one from Fairy Tail. Is there other anime/manga series DLC stuff in Generations? Heard theres One Piece DLC in the game(already out in Japan)..
Easton Barnes
I always hate how games introduce difficulty in the amount of adds you have to kill instead of making the actual boss challenging. Like XCX, I actually fought the (second to) last boss outside of my Skell on his second phase and killed his shield satellite and shit and was super fucking annoyed until I realized they parked the skells right inside the doorway for you to use, even though you don't enter with them. I dunno, relying on numbers to make shit difficult is annoying.
Lincoln Cooper
Yugioh's Dark Magician is a palico armor set. Dunno when that comes out
Zachary Smith
Theres a fucking Yotsuba guild card, did you not notice that one?
Hudson Green
>Yotsuba guild card The fuck does that have to do with Xenoblade Chronicles X?
Owen Diaz
Just bought it, it mentioned something about transferring things from MH4U to MHG, what exactly do they take?
Camden Cox
Damn, capsom's been on a roll using licensed stuff as DLC. In 4U, they had Devil May Cry, Street Fighter, and Mega Man(Capcom's IPs), Mario, and Zelda(Nintendo IPs), and Sonic(Sega's IP) for DLC outfits and weapons.
In Generations we get Fire Emblem(Nintendo's IP) and anime/maga series for outfits and such.
Surprised Capcom hasn't done Resident Evil costumes for MH or even Strider or ask Sega for PSO outfits and PSO themed weapons. Hell they should've asked Nintendo for Xenoblade DLC outfits. Can see the Mondado either for a LS or GS weapon.
Anthony Flores
well I'm fucking retarded, meant to quote Ignore me
Dylan Mitchell
this is a monster hunter thread, user
although I agree with you that the last boss for XCX is pure garbage. I was really disappointed by that game. At least it had top-tier exploration
Brandon Martinez
Strider's in generations. I think they did resident evil in a past game People love them fanservice costumes
Nicholas Foster
>Strider's in generations
Oh shit really? I'll wait for the DLC then. How are they handing DLC in Generations? Doing it every month like with 4U?
Leo Lee
I had low expectations from the start but the amount of exploration and just being able to get in a huge mech at will and spec it to fire a shitton of lasers saved the game for me.
I dunno, I just hate any series that uses numbers in encounters in place of actual difficulty so I can sympathize with OP. I was annoyed at several fights in XCX. Like the Ga Jiarg fight where he just has 5 adds, and then when he gets in his fucking Skell he goes invulnerable halfway through and summons more adds. Shit like that breaks the flow of the game. If you're going to introduce a numbers-based boss, don't also give someone a named / important target to kill.
Carter Rodriguez
Wonder if they would release Viewtiful Joe and/or Okami skins
