I for one, am looking forward to the undoubtedly large rp community

Elaborate please, only rp I've seen is on discord.

Tanned huntress who uses Charge Blade to kill monsters so that she can greedily expand her fashion collection.

>kecha wecha is gone for good
Not with his skeleton in game, he's not. Also why would you be? Are you one them Flying Wyvern guys? I hope not.

kecha wacha is cute!

I'll make two characters. One is an old, scarred veteran blademaster woman and another who is a young goofball pompadour-toting gunner.
Kecha was pretty annoying and did surprising amounts of damage with some of those attacks

Tanned scruffy husbando that I'll deck out in skimpy armor so I can distract everyone

I try not to main weapons but damn the Switch Axe moveset looks good this time around, will probably end up using that the most

>not tanned tomboy

You have the option to step into the realm of gods, and you choose mortality?

There is no mention about her personality there aside from being greedy, please don't project insecurities about your fetish onto me.
Just for that I'm straying even further and making a redhead.

Also, all Huntress' are basically tomboys by default.

aww cmon user, tan + white hair is the real 10/10. Blonde and black are right below, but i can't see redhead working out.

Was just gonna play a white redhead farmer style gal, but redhead tan gal is top tier too.
You've forced my hand, user. Now I've gotta play a pale white male, woe is me.

sorry user but that's not allowed. I might not be playing as a female but i wanna see sexy huntress' too.

>fights Uragan EX in MH Stories

why did I randomly take 200 damage?

are you aware of what blastblight is? it is a status effect that is a ticking time bomb and causes static damage when it goes off. In the mainline games it is a status effect that just does flat damage every time it is inflicted on a monster. Good for breaking parts.

>Switch version of MHXX just came in today

I couldn't wait...

>are you aware of what blastblight is?

Not really. Last MH game I played was 4 and Slime worked like that.

but Uragan is not slime

It's too late, user. You did this to me.
I'm going to be all of them if they unlock character creation after the initial one.

slime was turned into blast when they gave it to monsters besides brachydios
also uragaan can inflict blastblight in MHStories using his tail bomber attack, the EX uragaan might have another attack that does it as well

I've been playing XX on my switch slowly, like 3-4 hours every couple of days.

Games comfy, been just using regular guild CB since i need to get practice back on it. I've pretty much got the hang of the different moveset/nerf. I'm sure it'll carry the same kind of playstyle in World.

Then i'll probably go to Brave LS/GS because it's too fucking fun.

>also uragaan can inflict blastblight in MHStories using his tail bomber attack,

okay, that explains it. I was too busy getting rid of the Blaststones

World CB has already been confirmed to be going back to the glory days of 4U CB. It also gets a new move that lets it buff the sword to trigger phial blasts on regular swings.

CB is actually getting all of it's 4G moves, plus some extra stuff

Brave GS is hella fun though, try it out when you can

>60 hours on Tri before the servers died
>210 hours on 3U
>230 on 4U
>Finally burned the fuck out, couldn't even play 20 hours of Generations

I can't explain it but if World didn't come out I think I'd have been done with MH for a long fucking time. The casualization/streamlining whatever you wanna call it in World is such a huge draw for me, it's reinvigorated my interest and then some.

I don't think I could stand to get XX on the Switch now with World on the horizon.

It takes me a while to commit new changes to muscle memory.

Hopefully World has a lot to do so I can re-master all the weapons. Seems like the couple of new moves and the enviro changes won't let me just pick up weapons from the last games and use them. Except GS.

>the sole new monster in World that I thought looked original and interesting was the fluff bat
>it turns out to be another shitty flying wyvern

>Is Sup Forums ready for monster hunting? What kind of character will you make? Will your hunter have a backstory? What will you main? Am i the only one who's glad kecha wecha is gone for good? Monster Hunter world thread.

Why do you faggots make it sound like this game is coming out tomorrow? We have a 4 months to wait.

I don't understand getting hype, or even going "OH NOE LAL OF MONHUN IS RUINED" 4+ months out.

Fucking start this shit up in 3 months you niggers.

some things never change

>expecting the new wyverns not to be just skeletons of the old ones.

It's been happening for a while now, some new monsters are pretty cool and unique. I don't mind using the old skeletons, if it's something like tatsumine and Glavenous. But making a chicken purple and giving it poison isn't much fun.

TGS is happening and there's lots of gameplay videos going around, so people are getting excited

>That new slide/evasion move for CB.

Guys that vaguely looks like me who likes monster hunter that plays most of the melee weapons.

I wasn't aware people rpd with a game like monhun.

I didn't even know they had fat character models.

Honestly user I wasn't a massive fan of Gen and I couldn't be bothered with XX at all. Atlal Ka looks cool but I can't be bothered to grind through G-rank for it. And I put about 4000 hours in FU back in the day just because I enjoyed hunting.

World looks like a breath of fresh air with a lot of the updated mechanics. Everyone I've talked to regarding the weapon changes are excited about their favorite weapons too. CB gets its 4U moveset back + new buffs. GL has that shitty heatbar removed, improved reload, better combos, a cool new shell type.
I have a friend who speedruns P3rd a lot with GS and he is really happy with the changes to GS even if it means playing the same way won't be the best any more. To put it his way, he'd rather have more to think about with the weapon than just unsheath charge until KO and then strong charge.

For all intents and purposes MHW might as well be the first actual new MH game since Tri.

Part of me hopes multiple giant elder dragons can fight each other in World. Say, if you're in an endgame area, you suddenly see Dire Miralis getting fucked up by a Gogmazios.

I liked the kecha, I have been playing since the original game so I was thinking about making a grizzled old vet looking Hunter this time around. I use most every weapon these days, but I'm not that great at the charge axe or the insect glaive so probably give them a bit more of a go with world, also maybe lock down my hunting horn a bit more, but I'm more of a GS/chargeblade/tachi /DS guy in the regular

First off, I take my fitness fairly seriously. I'm literally drinking whey as I type thing.

Secondly, I think most of Sup Forums is skellington not fat.

Would love to see gog come back, I loved that fight, one of their best large scale dragons.

I want to be a sassy black woman with very thick lips and ridiculous hairstyle, haven;t thought about the name but I want it to be the most blacksploitable sassiest that exist. Hope my bf doesn't feel awkward hunting with me with that avatar

Kecha Wacha was one of the most fun hunts

Charge Blade is mechanically complex compared to most of the other weapons but the goal of the weapon is pretty straightforward. Sword mode until knockdown and then spend phials in axe mode. Keep shield buff up.
Guardpoint attacks for free damage + KO. The weapon allows you to access any move in its kit in no more than one or two steps so it's incredibly fluid and it was always incredibly satisfying to guardpoint an attack and follow up with an AED punish.
If you haven't before, I would recommend looking up some 4U/4G CB videos to see what the weapon looked like in action. Here is one of my favorites: youtube.com/watch?v=BlZjCXJfDe0

Insect Glaive is pretty straightforward as well honestly, you just need to be able to aim your kinsect to keep your buffs up because the weapon isn't very good without red+white buff but it is very strong with them.

5/10, I've heard better memes. A little too on the nose.

I'll make the same character I usually do which is an idealized version of myself except this time I'll go with the best hair, /pomp/.
pro-toot /hime/ shitters not welcome.

A lot of the new ones seem really derivative of existing monsters besides just borrowing skeletons, so I guess gen 4 left a fucking tough act to follow regarding monster design

That snake head thing is pretty much my last hope, even though it looks like a rejected kecha wacha concept borrowing dalamadur's color scheme

meme? what meme? i was being serious about the niggeress

Oh I know the charge blade, I meant switch axe, but I typed charge axe.

...

Understandable confusion because of what I wrote.

There's nothing wrong with reusing skeletons, so long as they make unique fights and moves to go along with them.
Them having some of the same moves is also perfectly acceptable.

I was playing MH stories and i just saw this nigga sleeping under a tree, is it strong?

I too am not a huge fan of neru, I like the idea of him mechanically, but his design is not one of their better ones.

he's okay

I haven't played stories, but in the normal games he is an introductory monster.

Well, my tigrex just dash combo DLC rathalos to death, pretty sure this nigga won't give problems.

get a brute tigrex when you can. they're even better

whats wrong with kecha wacha? one time he just hung there eating honey for the whole quest until he died from my constant wailing on his ass. seems like a pretty cool dude

Kill yourselves

I already have it, but is underleveled.

Definitely one of my favorite designs from 4th gen. Almost nobody draws him, though.

>What kind of character will you make? Will your hunter have a backstory?
do a significant amount of people play mh like its dnd? i just make a hunter and name it after my online handle

That's because you're boring

Stories has corrupted me, now i can't accept anything but this cute artstyle.

when will best boy and best boy (girl) appear for MHW

im boring because i see mh as a hunting action game and not some kind of context to make up an elaborate story? i put decent legwork into my characters when i play tabletop rpgs but it seems strange to do that with a video game such as this

Avinia is dumb.

pokemon reference?

monster hunter homebrew TTRPG when

nigga my neopets have their own backstories and even I don't bother with that shit in mh

No she's just a dumb slut, just like most fem hunters/riders.
Or hunters in general, really.

Gonna go heavy on CB so I"m making it my hunter from 4U but older.
And Kecha Wacha was cool. Why did you not like him?

I'm a Tri babby, it was my first MH since i don't really play handhelds. I LOVED the bowgun in Tri. The sheer amount of customization options made it so much more fun than any of the other available weapons. Picking the right parts to mix and match for certain hunts was great, as well as choose between fast rolling or having a mini-shield to block with was great. I was pretty hurt when i played the WiiU version and it was simplified to just light or heavy guns with no mixing parts. Thankfully they put bows in that one, so i could mix it up a bit more. I doubt world will bring it back, but if i can bounce between guns and bows i'll be happy enough.

I'm a range support bro at heart. Nothing was more satisfying than tranquilizing a monster trying to fly away or shooting another player with a recovery shot that's about to get their shit pushed in by a rampaging devil jho and ending the hunt. All the different guns and ammo types make them very engaging and rewarding to play, although very expensive.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who's thought Monster Hunter would make a great table top game.

>For all intents and purposes MHW might as well be the first actual new MH game since Tri.

Fucking this. I don't understand how people can play the same game over and over again for hundreds of hours. I loved the new monsters in Tri because it was something new. New monsters, new patterns, new weapons, everything. The stubborn purist autists are insane.

>That resolution
>That filter
How?

/tg/ made PTU, so you never know what might happen in the future

As far as I know, Tri is the only one to have the mix-and-match bowguns. While kinda neat, it lent itself too well to just making the one gun to rule them all by minmaxing.

I always enjoy going heavy bowgun, but in 4U started to enjoy bows as well. LBG are nice, but mainly just used for status/element support. I'd rather just shoot huge shots.

>Have to until January for a decent amount of Nergigante porn

waifu2x

The same as usual, make a self insert, get LBG, get Lance and basically laugh at how easy the game is because I has been doing this for way too much time.

Can I suck your penis user?

i don't know, i just make a guy and equip him with the coolest armor i got.

probably play gunlance

No, she loves cat paws, she will nevee admit it cuz she is tsundere.

>What kind of character will you make?
Honorabu samurai on ps4 and qt amazon on pc
>Will your hunter have a backstory?
Nah
>What will you main?
Gunlance and Longsword are my go to but I'm getting interested in GS and SA
>Am i the only one who's glad kecha wecha is gone for good?
He's still here (in spirit)
He might even still be in actually. I expect a lot of returning 4U monsters.

Sure, why not.

That is only in the 3ds the PSP have around 2000 combined.

>tfw I spent more time than all of that combined in a single game over the course of a single year
no wonder I had to retake that year of college

Capcom, you knew we would try this and made sure the camera can't deliver, right?

>Will your hunter have a backstory?
Fuck yeah.
His name will be Xamagadoth, he's bisexual and has self-diagnosed OCD Autism, Depression, Anxiety and he's 62.7% psychotic with a wickedly dark sense of humor. When he was 6, a Gore Magala ate his family and shat them out right in front of his face, ever since that day he swore he would hunt and kill every single Magala in existence. But with what you ask? After cleaning his family of the shit that they were covered in, he made a blade of their crimson blood (with their skin being the sheath of the epic blade).

Well Sup Forums, what do you think? Does Xamagodoth have a chance at killing the Magala's of the world?

hello mr pitchford

Does his weapon happen to have some sort of German name?

Going to make the beefiest beefcake He-Man mother fucking avatar. He's going to main bug staff.

But in all honesty, a big beefcake mofo with hammer and swaxe to start. Might move on to loli fighter with the PC release.

I went from not giving a shit and waiting for the next portable or switch monhun, to being on the edge of my seat with hype from all they revealed lately.

>no loading zone giant maps my prayers are fucking answered finally. No more gay loading zone escapes or ducking out to heal up like a little faggot

>Huge quality of life improvements like not having to flip through every gear piece individually, with forging organized with all set pieces in a row. Also weapon upgrade maps visible in game with no more guessing, no need for a goddamn wiki

>monster diagrams in game for damage effectiveness NO WIKI REQUIRED FUCK YEAH

>Drop in parties while out in the world without any need to lobby up or load through town. Drastically cutting out all of the boring bloat of the game so you can enjoy more immersive monster huntan

>Monsters now fucking fight each other

>3+ monsters at a time? Maybe more. My dick cant get any harder

>heavy bow gun has some kind of rapid fire moving siege mode and it looks cool as fuck

>No restrictions on gunner/blade armor, just modified defenses

Am I forgetting anything? Im excited as fuck.

Free hunt is back too. Going out to kill whatevers out there is my jam. Sometimes aiming for gear all the time gets tiresome.

I'm calling it in advance that loading zones will be missed. Openness provides more opportunity for more boring downtime.

There are no body sliders, dingdong. You can customize the face, hair, and skin color. You're not going to make a loli.

letting you turn off the new damage numbers and voice acting is pretty sweet imo. fucking hate voice acting in games and i don't want damage numbers popping up all over the monster. but i can see that other people want those things.

His weapon is called 屁股爆破 (or Pìgu bàopò for those who are uncultured)

I don't mind Damage Numbers because I want to know where the good spots are.

Plus it gives me a good reason to see if some weapons are better even if they have a weaker base but good element

You are ugly and unlikable.

Well fuck. Dreams dashed.

>For all intents and purposes MHW might as well be the first actual new MH game since Tri.
Fingers crossed.

I do see the utility, I just think the overall image is ruined by the numbers popping up like it's final fantasy or something. If they had a little HUD element off to the side that showed your last hit's damage or something along those lines I'd probably leave it on.

I loved freehunting, but I could never justify it unless i needed moga points. I'm enthralled at the thought of just hunting whenever and wherever I want.

I'm sure not going to miss having monsters falling down or camping in the loading zone. Its also been confirmed that you wont lose stamina anymore unless running from a monster, so that combined with flying around on birds should make movement quite fast.

I'm on the fence about numbers. By showing them we get less shitters hitting the legs all day, but it does break my immersion. I might use them on new encounters to get a feel for when im hitting parts properly or just to check damage. Hopefully its a quick swap.

I tried getting into monster hunter by playing generations but couldn't do it. The screen was just too small for me and it felt limiting in a way.
