So now that the dust has settled can we all agree this game was pretty fucking good

So now that the dust has settled can we all agree this game was pretty fucking good

It is, unfortunately. Played so much in 3 weeks that I am closed to burned out already.

There are people who hate this game? Really?

It’s really good, I love the QoL changes, but I feel it is too easy. I want them to release a G Rank DLC.

The people complaining are long-time MonHun minmax fags who have been spoiled by the dozens of recycled monsters in each installment.
They refuse to recognize that they didn't have the option to just import skeletons into the game.

Accord to everyone? Yes.

According to old mon hun fans? No its not clunky enough

Despite being the most accessible game in the series I think it was still too obtuse for most newcomers. Every person I know who picked it up as their first Monhun has since dropped it. It's a good game and a good base and I'm looking forward to more content.

It's pretty good and I'm 160 hours in
BUT
The online system is ass, the social aspect of the game is dead unless you play with friends
Some weapons are clearly underdesigned, clearly they didn't had enough time or resources to do them better
Beta sets are inferior design wise to Gunner sets, the only difference from the alpha sometimes it's just the open helmet
Monsters should be able to use the enviroment to fuck with you way more, it's a one way fight for now
Too many wyverns
We need more monsters

Every one of these points is 100% verifiable and fixable by capcom,
they won't though

RIP gathering hub. All they need to do is copy the necessary NPC functions and drop players off there after a quest. Hopefully they fix it eventually.

It's still not the Phantasy Star Online/Universe/Portable console experience I'm looking for. It feels exactly the same as the shitty one I played on the PSP in 2010. Big slow wind up animations, pointless tracking, not enough flash or substance to keep things interesting. I wasted $60 but made most of it back thanks to a friend who was dying to play it. He didn't like it either lol

Can someone please explain how the online system is acceptable? Because it seems to me that it is physically impossible to play through the game with friends. Story missions can't be started together unless one of you has already completed the mission, and even if you HAVE completed the mission, you still have to fucking wait until the cutscene plays out before joining? What the hell were they thinking? Am I just retarded?

it's a retarded system
but you aren't supposed to play the story with other people, git gud

It's an unfortunate offshoot of the design of older games; prior, there was a division between Story/Singleplayer and Guild/Multiplayer quests. Story was balanced for Single Player and could only be started solo/played solo, and Guild Quests were balanced for multiple people and could be tackled solo or with a group.

You're not burned out. You ran out of content. You want more, you aren't done with the game, but it is done with you.

>was pretty fucking good
>was
I still havnt even gotten to play it :'(
and I wont for another 6 months or so :'(

Damn, I was hoping this wasn't the case bros. So I have to play leapfrog, going ahead one mission solo, finishing it, then going back and helping my pal every time? Unbelievable. I loved the way it was split up in 3U and 4U, at least you could always get in a game with your friends and progress together without hassle.

Rest of the game is great though. Played with pals for the first time ever last night, 10/10 experience besides the setup.

BING

>Big slow wind up animations
So you only played one weapon, and were confused that there was actual thought involved instead of letting you spam whatever while the game basically auto-plays. And then you complain about lack of substance.

Best MonHun game to open a new Gen with. just needs-
>More End Game
>Improvements to mounting
>More unique weapons designs, even just one for each at the end of the tree for all of them.

They also really blew their load with map design on the ancient forest. It's so much bigger than the others, especially Elders Recess which is just terrible.

Someone explain to me how that makes the multiplayer "Unplayable"
Because, yeah, the whole cutscene thing is retarded, and an obvious misstep on Capcom's part, but the story is such a tiny fraction of the game's content, why would that even matter? Especially late-game, when the story fucks off entirely and you're free to slaughter monsters with your buds to your hearts content

Its ok.
They improved on a lot of small things which are a huge step in the right direction but in the end the game lacks content and is too easy.
G/Ultimate -version of World is probably gonna be greatest MH experience.

Astera is the worst village in the series and I hope they replace it in the next version.

Or just play through the story single-player, as the game intended

I tried a few. The big sword, the saber and shield, the twin daggers, the gun spear thing. Every animation and movement has so much weight its like the physics are drowned in molasses. I know some people like really weighty controls but it was never for me. PSO/U/P is about juggling and positioning and you get a constant sense of progression since the goal (which MH ripped off of btw) is to rise through the ranks, get S rank gear, and use the new gear to hit bigger numbers on mobs finally until you get to a boss and wipe it out for a big exp boost and hope of getting something shiny and new.

Just do investigations, events or optional quests with your friends and only bother with assigned quests when you're playing on your own.

No one said it was unplayable, not sure who you're quoting. It is a colossal pain in the ass in the early game, and me and my buddy just started last night after weeks of waiting. It is a huge slap in the face to find out that you can't play through the only content available to us at this point together without jumping through a bunch of hoops, especially considering how seamless it's been in the previous games.

Looking forward to when it opens up and we're free to hunt what we want, but the fact it's so cumbersome when we're this many generations in is kind of inexcusable for their big debut title on console for the first time in years.

Then why did they remove Guild Hall quests?

So casuals can SOS out rather than get frustrated and give up.

did they remove all the missions cause they thought quest variety like the old games would scare off normies or something?

This fucking faggot pisses me off.

How do we kill him Bros?
He can't keep getting away with this!

>rights Pink Rathain for plot
>a BLUE sharpness weapon bounces

the fuck is this shit?

Sorry, Japan wants the Juice to be loose.

>fling shit at him
>he runs off
that was hard

trying to use a CB on him is a nightmare

and of course he's the fucker you need to kill to make the charms better

>casualizated garbage
>good

Why the fuck is kushala daora so hard

peirce shots

I don't hate it but nothing makes me want to play it. I'm like rank 3 and it just feels like an annoying chore. Go wail on this dumb monster. The combat sucks.

Yes nintennigger we know you're salty now kys.

flash pods and karma lbg lvl 2 normal reks him

>the monster you're fighting follows him to attack him

it's not hard but its spam of wind projectiles makes me furious, it doesn't even do damage

I just got it. Am I the only one having trouble getting used to the controls? Got too used to 3DS.

Is bow the only strong range weapon now that slicer ammo was nerfed?

Love it, left wanting more though, I know picklerage is coming in a DLC update, but I hope they continue updating like that instead of just releasing another game next year.

This is fucking shit. It deserves to be on switch

karma lbg strong af

>slicer was nerfed
What? Im still able to wipe the floor with that Kadachi HBG.
>affinity and crit set
>affinty weapon
>crits all day if you hit a weak spot with slicing shot

Rapid fire normal 2?

Is everything soloable including elder dragons?

>good
>casualized piece of crap
with your permision I will continue playing BAYONETTA 2

my first monhun

i dropped it after like 2 missions lmao

yes bring it and combo thats it dont need anymore than them to kill anything except
the final boss

Currently playing through XX Switch. I'll see how World is once it FINALLY comes out on PC, but I'm worried about how clunky the online system is now.

yes

bro I played it and it was fucking boring
XX is pure gold

My problem isn't with him, it's with the shitters that try to attack him while he's fucking up the monster

>Hunting Barroth
>Everything going smooth, nobody's dying or getting hit by telegraphed attacks
>Know the Juice is gonna pop up any fucking minute
>He does
>Fucks Barroth up
>Suddenly Diablos
>Diablos opens up a pit that sends Barroth and Juice beneath level
>Juice gets back fast and fucks Diablos up
>Barroth climbs back up to get away
>2 shitters try going for the Juice
>He fucks them up
>Juice fucks up the other Hunter
>Quest over

High Rank is fun, it just sucks how SOS quests got worse because people don't know how to sit back and watch a fucking fight happen or just fling shit and be patient.

>Using weapons designed to hunt beasts up to 8x the size of the hunter
>complains that they are sluggish

bruh it ain't devil may cry it's MONSTER hunter... as in big, slow monsters? i get not liking slow combat, but if you thought a game where you hunt giant creatures was going to engage an attack within a fifth of a second of button press then thats just you

It's alright. Been playing it a little at a time but there's only so many annoying monsters you can fight before you have to take yet another break because chasing them is a pain in the ass.

>Fighting Rathalos in the story.
>Rathalos runs up to Anjanath mid fight.
>Anjanath decides it's never going to let Rathalos get away.
>Spend the rest of the fight trying to take little pokes at Rathalos while avoiding both monsters who just WON'T fucking separate no matter how long I wait or stay out of sight.
>Every time Rathalos flees, Anjanath finds it within a few seconds.
Jesus fuck this game is exhausting I'm pretty sure Anjanath did most of the damage.

What do you need for xeno?

>always play lance
>decide to replay 3U after clearing all of the content on MHW
>switch to hammer
>as soon as enemies start having cuttable tales urge to switch back to a cutting weapon rises
How does anyone who uses blunt weapons not fall to the temptation of bladed weapons?

melatonin

The people who complain about MH World's content are the people who think adding berserk / chaotic / desert / etc variants to existing monsters as well as versions of monsters we've already seen 34848392 times before is exciting new content.

>fighting some shitty monster
>need specific part breaks
>B-52 flies in and does a bombing run
>Part Broken
>Part Broken
>Part Broken
>fucks the monster up for 5 minutes then leaves
>monster limps away

thanks bazelbro

Pierce from Legiana HBG or Diablos HBG

His constant wind generating makes my hunter staggered. That and his constant flying drags out the fight longer than any of ther other elder dragons. What sucks most about the cunt is that I want his armor and weapons set and thus I have to farm him.

2/3rd of world's cast is repeated content we've already seen 34848392 times before, and a good quarter of that is just variants.
Only like ten monsters are new, and even one of them is just a Uragaan variant.

Dung pods dude.

GIVE ME MORE SHIT TO KILL AND SKIN

Yes. It's fucking great.

It's not PERFECT. Because you have to mention how NOT PERFECT the game is because this is Sup Forums and everyone on Sup Forums has a ten foot boner for pointing out a game's flaws no matter how superficial and pedantic. Can't just say something positive about a game, gotta make sure you slip in some bitching in there somewhere otherwise you might be a FILTHY SHILL CASUAL NORMIE, and by god, we can't have THAT!

So yeah. The game isn't perfect. But it is damn, DAMN good.
Shows that Capcom is actually giving a shit about game design, and not just selecting more monsters from the drop-down menu, adding G or XX to the end, and calling it good

Quick question, maximum might or weakness exploit ?

WE

Hammer does everything else except cut tails. Big powerful hits that feel good. Fast and hit and run weapon, makes it both mobile and powerful, KO and exhaustion makes it so that monster doesn't even fight back.

Or they could've had the whole town act as the hub
I have no idea why they didn't, the early info sounded like that was their plan. Must've been technical problems or some shit.

>Im gonna make nagasaki look like a fucking joke

>long-time
If they were long-time fans, they would have at least been around for Tri, giving them some frame of reference for what a fresh start typically looks like for the series. These retards started with 4U, MAYBE 3U at the earliest.

It's so much fun. Still my go-to game to play with friends.

Every time he flies, it's free hits with flash pods.

Weirdly enough I started with 4U. I'm not really having an issue with the smaller quantity of monsters, but that's because I'm not an autist.

I think one of the biggest problems is the matchmaking system, which needs some major tweaks before the next game on consoles. Stuff like:

>12 person rooms causes the player pool to be limited, and sometimes requires moving several times to find someone. Good luck if you are too high or low of a level or fighting a monster no one else in the room has a interest in grinding for.
>Difficulty not adjusting if someone leaves, gets kicked or DCs causes issues both with gameplay balance and money rewards.
>Hard to get friends in when first doing a quest.
>Main story quests are almost always better if you fail it the first time if you want to do it mutliplater so you can SOS right away/get party memebers and often not be in a fight right away.
>The main village is a pain in the ass to get around.
>Too many menus when selecting a quest.

I know this is more me and I understand fully if long time MH fans disagree, but I think the shared 3 deaths and the quest is failed is pretty bullshit and frustrating. I can get you failing if you die 3 times, but other people fucking it up makes me nervous about even doing the muiltplayer. Not to mention a lot of people have mentioned soloing stuff because of team members constantly fucking up.

What the fuck is this?

I don't know, never seen one user.

The guns are fucking fine, you just need to pick an ammo appropriate to a monster instead of slicing all day

It's a tranqbomb dumbasses

Not anymore.

How do I bust Nerg's horns as a LS player? Even the tail seems to take a decade to sever but at least that I have down pat. I need the horns for gear and even with repeated helm splitters to them I get nothing before he dies.

Any reliable damage calculator? I don't wanna waste my time on shit that won't work.

Play with a real weapon. Or have someone else kill it like you usually do.

Your brain

(Weapon's True Raw + Bonuses) * Sharpness Multiplier * Attack Motion Value * Monster Hitzone

Use a hammer dumbass

Pick hammer or HH instead. How do you think hammer users cut tails?

Yeah. Hopefully its success in the west leads to XX getting localized. That and the G Rank expansion for this game. I just want to hunt more monsters

It's a ______ Gem that you need for _______ you dingus

How do attack boosts stack? Is there a cap?

With attack lv7, powercharm/talon, meat platter, might pill, am I becopme god? Or have I been wasting time?

Where do you guys get giant bomb premium videos?

Yes. But i wish it had G rank. I got platinum after 200 hours.

That's the trade-off for getting help with a monster, the fact shitters can ruin the quest.

Whats the best Hammer?

so it doesn't matter if i decide to pick one over the other ?

am I the only one who hates the street fighter event quest?
