When is that steam version of world out already? I want to hunt some monsters like a white man I am.

>>15237709

Supposedly this month, so the Denuvo-free version should be acquirable by the end of September. That said, you're still better off just grabbing PPSSPP and sticking with FU/P3rd.

>>15237799

that post only gets more true each mantle they add.

>>15237728

>Denuvo-free version should be acquirable by the end of September

It's a shame Voksi got v&, he was planning on starting work on it day 1 because he has a grudge against Capcom, and he's usually pretty quick to get them out. We might have seen a crack by the 10th or 11th, maybe even on release day if we were lucky. Now, who knows how long it'll take. ***

Hey, OP, wanted to tell you last thread but I completely forgot, your 4U download link in the OP post is fugged.

There's a limit to how much you can ignore during gameplay.

>>15238857

Why not play dauntless then, you can already ignore what makes every game bad

>>15238859

I mean, the gameplay in Dauntless is not completely awful, if you like bootleg Dark Souls 2 with with better hitboxes. And there's a couple of monsters with interesting mechanics. everything else is dogshit

I am still going to play it, already bought it and don't give two fucks. No little 5'?" board tyrant is going to stop me.

>Implying I mentioned that

I don't know what it is, I have no fucking idea and I don't care. Some fag mentioned it, not me.

>>15239034

All I'm saying is that your opinions are fucking wrong AND retarded. Enjoy your Denuvo, retard.

>>15239083

Enjoy being a soy-based lifeform who will never be tall, handsome nor white.

>>15239105

I can tell you're a shitskin by the way you type.

In case you haven't seen yet, World needs a GTX 1070 Ti to get 60 fps, with medium settings, in 1080p. It's also unstable and prone to frequent crashes. Simply amazing, MT Framework is famous for being able to perform well on toasters, and this is the best Capcom can do.

>>15239176

What the fuck? I've seen PC gameplay, and the texture quality is absolute ass, the environmental stuff and flora looks mediocre at best. There's absolutely 0 reason for it to run that poorly, if the PS4 and Xbone can run it at 30fps on hardware that was barely good enough for 2014.

>>15239201

Created for consoles and ported to pc. Just another title to add to the list of shit pc ports.

>>15239105

>>15239169

Why can't we accept each others differences and all be friends? Unless if you're from /leftypol/, /furry/, or /cuteboys/ We all are here because of our love for MH and thats all that matters in this thread.

>>15239277

>Why can't we accept each others differences and all be friends?

>except for these people who I don't like

I guess that's why.

>>15239258

I think Denuvo has something to do with it, but I'm not sure if the "demo" version given to streamers had Denuvo. I've seen a couple of streamers play the game, and for them it ran extremely well even maxed out. Shit nigger, if the journos just got the game early, their version definitely included Denuvo, and they're the ones apparently getting all of these performance issues. or Crapcom just blows dick at coding, and it took them 6 months to barely port a piece of shit game without any updates

>>15237862

Never much cared for Jurassic 2, but I loved that guy. Great role, and the actor managed to sell it really damn well from what I recall.

>>15238003

Well shit, you're right. Any Anons have it and can reupload?

>>15238857

But the handhelds have been the best entries in the series.

>>15239169

Project more niglet.

Guys, should I get MHW for PC?

I'd just buy the MHG port if I had a Switch.

>>15240101

>>15240120

Gen Ultimate is coming to Switch in the west. It's a port of XX, which was also on the 3DS. You will need to buy a Nintendo Online subscription if you want to play Gen Ultimate online on Nintendo Switch. Safe to say Capcom really wants the west to buy World on PC by releasing GenU one month before paid online for Switch in the west.

>>15240101

Once the Denuvo-free edition is released, you can grab that. Don't bother with the Steam edition.

>I'd just buy the MHG port if I had a Switch.

MHG port was for the original Wii, not the Switch. Switch just has a port of XX.

>>15240859

>>15240627

You mean it's actually a monster that poses a threat that can kill you in Monster Shitter World?

>>15240970

Its bullshittingly hard anon

Its borderline unfair how difficult it is.

I even seen it cart 2 good players like nothing at the same time on multiple occasions due to its fast attacks and special moves.

>>15239842

Mechanically they're fine, but playing anything on a handheld is pure hellish shit.

>>15240970

it's fun, it has a charge that's can take off two thirds of your health. Has little startup and heads about as fast if not a bit faster then Barroth in older games if I were to compare. Can do both fire and lightning blight on top of bleed. I think the MMO mechanics really did it wonders too since you need to keep the player that has aggro alive. More so since if ecliptic is casted that player can get wiped in camp.

>>15240994

This guy is just bad. It's not that hard. It's just about having teammates that don't walk into insta death.

Is the behemoth quest temporary or permanent?

>>15241076

it's a special assignment so it's permanent. There is an event extreme version out at the end of the month apparently.

you can use the jump emote to avoid behemoths big meteor kind of trivializes the main mechanic

>>15241062

>It's not that hard. It's just about having teammates that don't walk into insta death.

Are you on ps4 anon? Can you help me out then?

Are you good enough so that we could pull it off in a duo or not?

I caught a running cactus thingy, must of came with the update. It just runs around like a sperg though

>>15241097

sorry for jewtube

>>15241179

Why cant you just hooktube it?

>>15241237

hooktube got gutted and just plays youtube videos as normal now

>>15241500

It's really a tossup which game was worse. On one hand XX was a pile of garbage with anime super moves that completely trivialized the game, but on the other hand world was a piece of trash with massive casualization and anime super mantles.

>>15242155

I mean, XX at least had over twice the amount of monsters that World has, so it's much, much better than World.

>>15242155

It really isn't. XX is a shitty MH game. World is not a monster hunter game.

>>15240859

>nergigante lunge

So it's fully telegraphed and easy to dodge?

>>15241026

I've never gotten this. I presume there's just some breed of foreigner with obscenely huge hands, like the kind the original Xbox's controllers seem to have been made for? I've never had trouble with any of the major handheld devices myself. Still, even in that case you have PPSSPP now, and Citra is slowly but surely making progress.

>>15241099

>play with a friend who never liked the grinding of the main series

If he thinks the main series is a grind, he'd fucking hate World then. Jesus christ that shit is unforgivable.

>>15242155

I'd say calling it a tossup is giving World a bit too much credit - XX, for all it's bullshit and stupidity at least vaguely resembles a Monster Hunter game. World might not be bad for what it is, but what it is isn't Monster Hunter.

>>15242155

>On one hand XX was a pile of garbage with anime super moves that completely trivialized the game

XX was a massive improvement over the shitfest that was 4U. Arts weren't a waste of time like wystones and there was no relic shittery or Guild Quest grinding.

fuck i cant wait for world on pc, i feel like this is that multiplayer dragon's dogma people wanted from crapcom

It actually introduced me to whole mh franchise and i had tons of fun playing mhfu and mh4u with my buddy, can't imagine playing this game solo or with randoms though

>>15242589

>can't imagine playing this game solo

Oh man, you are cheating yourself if you don't play through Freedom Unite solo, there are few experiences more rewarding.

>>15242598

>it usually targets me

Well yeah, what else would it target?

>Saying that MHW isnt MH is dumb, you fags need to pull your heads out of your asses.

>Thats like saying persona 3 isnt persona after coming out after persona 2

But that is exactly the case, you even just said so yourself:

>Which was in that case persona 3 is WAY more different than persona 2.

>You can easily look at the game and think, oh, thats MH but with some various changes here and there, with no problem at all

To me it honestly looks more like one of the MonHun clones, like God Eater or Toukiden

>So stop being massive fucking manginas over the fact that MHW isnt exactly what you want it to be, some things change in life and you have to accept the obvious truth thats right in your face.

Except I don't think there's anyone denying that there's a change. There's a difference between "accepting that things have changed" and "being happy that things have changed."

>>15242603

it wasn't easy being my first mh game, person i played with also had no prior experience, HR tiggy raped our asses before we got gudder

>>15242603

>"accepting that things have changed"

vs

>"being happy that things have changed."

Ah, I see what you mean now.

I can enjoy MHW because its actually a geuninely fun game despite the changes.

But its still downright wrong to say that MHW isnt MH because its factually incorrect and inauthentic, its just different thats all.

>>15242608

My first MH game was 3U and unsuprisingly I only started to get raped once I got into G-Rank.

Its maybe because I'm pretty competent at arpgs.

>>15242608

Same here, but that's precisely why it was fun - few things have topped the exhilaration from when I finally took down Village 4 Tiggy.

>>15242615

>I can enjoy MHW because its actually a geuninely fun game despite the changes.

If you can still find it to be fun for what it is, more power to you. For me, I just feel like I wasted 200 hours that I could've spent on any other number of the hundreds of titles filling up my backlog.

>But its still downright wrong to say that MHW isnt MH because its factually incorrect and inauthentic, its just different thats all.

In the same way it's "factually incorrect" to say Persona 3 isn't Persona - they share a property name, and at least fall within the same general genre (unlike something along the lines of, say, the Airu village MonHun games), but they've lost so much of what made the series that birthed them appealing to a significant portion of the fanbase that it really isn't the same game anymore. There's a reason World by and large appeals to people who don't like Monster Hunter, and why so many Monster Hunter fans don't like World.

>>15242631

>>15242943

I'm not going to read 58bdfe's wall of text but do you guys want to actually play the game and fight the behemoth with me?

Its actually pretty damn fun and a difficult fight.

>>15242953

Man, fuck you, I'd have to renew my PSN (again)

Maybe next time, gotta save up my Shekles for ultimate.

>>15242962

The game gave me a free 2 day trial for some reason and I went and used that so I didnt have to pay a single cent.

Try and see if that works for you.

>>15242943

If the maps were designed intelligently no loading can still be done with smaller maps. This is my preference of being a guy who loves to wander wilderness IRL. Having hiding zones to run away from monsters to heal/eat would help get around using loading zones and make smoke bombs useful to hide with. And not all areas will be open to travel. You can still climb any tree or any non-slippery wall then leap off of them, but the grappling hook has to go. Instead I have two propositions for getting around without it

First there's paths between zones which will have both hiding spots and resources points. You harvest resource points once except for wood-cutting, mining, and fishing and you pocket that bushel or batch of that type of item. This is useful for when you just need to only collect herbs and blue mushrooms to make potions when you're out. Also the game's artwork if it is for Switch will be stylized enough you can see and identify the botany you can harvest based on how it looks and reacts when you touch it. As for resources themselves where they spawn and what kind spawns is the RNG rather than go to the same spot and harvesting 3-5 times. You can identify what you need before harvesting rather than pick up pointless junk that fills your limited inventory space. Climbing trees is also how you get a lot of your seeds now. And if you're a gunner they make great hiding spots you can leap off of and do an aerial attack.

The other proposition is that zones and paths can have hidden "shortcuts" to traverse between areas faster. If it's a shortcut like climbing over a mountain, the screen will fade to black and you fall to the other side. But for the most part shortcuts are paths that cut through the middle or under the map like making a tree fall over to create a bridge over a ravine or for Deserted Island the underwater ruin where you fought Caedus that goes under the island from base camp to the cove in Area 7, then to the beach in Area 10. And monsters can use shortcuts too to hide from you. You can also create or destroy shortcuts in the hunting ground with the right kind of tools and discover new areas you've never seen before. Monsters can also make or break shortcuts like collapsing tunnels via landslides if they're desperate to break your pursuit. Planning what shortcuts to make or break will be critical for hauling quests.

Instead of "le open world see that mountain may may" making hunting grounds more like a solid connected dungeons rather than individual rooms would have been a more intelligent step. There's still enough natural barriers to keep you and the monster from going everywhere. So you both have to use your wits to figure out the fastest path and shortcut to get around each other. Flying and monsters still tire out and need to land to catch their breath. Likewise a raptor can only walk wherever you can. So you can pursue them through their shortcut tunnels this time.

But then again, this is designing a hunting ground where you have to think about how to use it and not an buggy open world for casual shitters to derp and follow the glowing bugs to find monster.

>>15237567

Hey /mhg/. I got Both God Eaters and Toukiden Kiwami for my bloodborne box since apparently MHW is casualcore. How is the experience comparable between the games to a (you)-approved MH game?

>>15241179

>sorry for jewtube

>not using invidio.us

>>15243088

Don't know about toukiden but God Eater is similar in idea only. Gameplay wise its very different from monster hunter

tank needs to keep the behemoth his spin attack away from comets and pointed away from the team at all times.

if you get targeted by comet drop it near the party for when the behemoth used ecliptic meteor, if targeted by tornado run it into the wall if you can't flash it to stop the cast, but you'll have to run it into the wall for extreme behemoth.

you should have rocksteady and temporal mantles for this as DPS, rockstedy so you can run through the wind temporal for when it get hairy.

DROP THE EARTH DRAGONGEM YOU BITCH

I ONLY NEED THE LEGS FOR THE ULTIMATE WEEABOO GREATSWORD SET

>>15243744

You're right, World IS the best Modern Warfare game. Too bad it's the worst Monster Hunter though.

>>15243818

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and shitposts like a duck…

>>15243997

Oh man, I never knew there was a scene like this cut from Lost World. I guess I can see that they cut it due to wanting to get to DINOSAURS as fast as possible for an impatient audience, but goddamn that's a great scene to build up Tembo's character. A real shame.

>>15244160

I was talking about Freedom Unite, hence Village 4 Tigrex.

>>15245829

If you can get Citra running, why not just stick with XX instead of the (((culturally enriched))) version?

>>15244491

>DROP THE EARTH DRAGONGEM YOU BITCH

>wasting this much effort on High rank drops

>>15245829

I can run XX just fine with only some frame drops when I either use a flash or a monster roars, for some reason Astalos also drops my frames but if I drop the resolution to native everything is fine, this is on the nightly build that is currently up to date so I'm pretty sure most builds can now run XX/Gen just fine.

>>15247767

Yeah, I remember one of Malcolm's buddies trying to guilt him constantly for "why would you want to kill T-Rex" and shit, even after he saved their lives despite them nearly getting him and everyone else killed. That extra scene really added a lot to him too, especially the bit about there being no greater insult to a man's honor than not being a gentleman, gives a fair bit of context to his actions in the rest of the film as well. A real shame that got cut, but he probably would've stolen the spotlight even more than he already did.

>Comet has landed

The range of Bhemoth is insane but i must have every armor set in this game no matter the grind.

"I joined a quest in-progress just in time to see someone dumped at a camp, only to have a comet get cast on them" -Random anon from wiki

tanking behemoth is pretty easy with gunlance. just run around till he tries to charybneyresss someone and wyvern spike his face while hes casting then viola you're tanking and can control his movements.

Insomnia is kicking in. I have a couple of monster ideas. One monster is a tireless kicking kiwi that uses it's beak to pole vault. I call this one Kikiwi-kiwi. It's armor is a feathered "rugby" uniform. The other monster I've been dreaming of is a giant tree frog that carries it's eggs on it's back. The eggs are coated with a volatile foam that causes blast blight when touched. The eggs explode when the tadpoles hatch from the eggs. The foam is also flammable and will ignite when exposed to open flames like a torch. Tree frog attacks by throwing it's babies like grenades. Tentative name is Grennaebrog.

I'm taking a break from MonHun before I get too bored hunting materials for transition armor.

I'm gonna pirate World (when it gets cracked) and probably enjoy it.

>>15250863

>I'm gonna pirate World (when it gets cracked)

Definitely the only way I'd recommend going about it

>>15250863

>gimping on online because of autism for denuvo

>>15250903

Pirates usually can do online stuff, can't they? Not that it matters much, since World is already too easy as is even single player, no reason to make it even easier.

>>15250903

>Game has online and offline component

>Making the online the preferred/mandatory way

This better not be the case.

>>15250910

Silly Anon, they got rid of village/guild, you can do every quest solo or multiplayer and the game changed difficulty from solo to multiplayer by making monsters have more than double HP so the game's probably harder if you're playing with one other person than if you'd solo. You're not trying to prevent people from playing the entire game by having to git gud or play with others, are you now Anon?

For any of the fags that play World, did they ever fix the fucked up multiplayer that didn't let you play quests with others unless everyone had watched the cutscene in advance so people had to enter the quest, trigger the cutscene and then leave to rehost the quest so everyone could join?

>>15250910

Offline is actually the preferred way, like it is with actual Monster Hunter games as well.

>>15250918

>the game's probably harder if you're playing with one other person than if you'd solo.

Only if the other person is less skilled than you are, two equally skilled players will output more damage than the simple sum of their performance.

>did they ever fix the fucked up multiplayer that didn't let you play quests with others unless everyone had watched the cutscene in advance so people had to enter the quest, trigger the cutscene and then leave to rehost the quest so everyone could join?

Sort of - now you just need to use the SOS shit after the cut scenes. Still fucking retarded and they should just make all the cinematics skippable, but then that's just symptomatic of World's problems as a whole.

So, what's the word on the PC port of MHW? How's the performance? Any word from any cracking groups?

>>15263491

Performance is god awful, you need at least a GTX 1070 Ti to hit stable 60fps with medium settings in 1080p. Voksi was planning on trying to crack it ASAP, starting day 1, but he got v&.

>>15263491

Consensus seems to be to stick with PPSSPP to run FU/P3 for PC MonHun

>>15263879

It's still fun though right?

>>15272418

god no. It's bad. Like there's no real sense of danger when fighting a monster, and the over-simplifications of a lot of the core mechanics leave the game feeling more like a hollow clone than an actual MH game.

Pick one, neck yourself and then emulate P3rd pr FU.

>>15272423

Enjoy control taken out of your hands as the game literally does everything for you, from pointing you where to go to what you need to do on the control non-fucking-stop.

Tale a look at what a faggot has to do just to get a SLIGHT semblance of normal gameplay. He also deliberately played super sloppy and STILL mopped the fucking monster.

https://www.invidio.us/watch?v=He6z6AejD64

>>15272475

I don't see how control is getting taken out of his hand here. Also isn't the Jagras the starting monster?

>>15272534

Control is taken out of the players hand for most of what is going on, starting with most of those things in the menus being turned off being helper things. Also the fucking flies NEVER GO AWAY. The whole pinning minigame fails as well as it has all this visual bullshit but you really don't need to do jack shit but mash one button to get a high powered hit.

Here is Barroth. The dude followed a credence that he would remain still when healing, but twice when his health was low, the game AUTO forced him to heal. Also watch how the monster sleeps in front of the hunter, monsters still have the AI to go from point A to point B and don't stop to fight in hallways, and the environment actively fights against the monster.

>>15272557

>Control is taken out of the players hand for most of what is going on, starting with most of those things in the menus being turned off being helper things.

I don't really know the game's systems so i can't comment on this.

> Also the fucking flies NEVER GO AWAY.

Pretty sure they are a lore thing for the hunters.

>The whole pinning minigame fails as well as it has all this visual bullshit but you really don't need to do jack shit but mash one button to get a high powered hit.

Wew, that's a lot of hot air.

>The dude followed a credence that he would remain still when healing, but twice when his health was low, the game AUTO forced him to heal.

I can clearly see in the video he stops to heal and presses the button to do it.

You're Clearly fucking lying about all this you fucking schizo.

Also if you want to complain about the game being too easy than stop sending me beginner videos from the fucking BETA you triple nigger.

>>15272654

World is shit

do I buy World just to support Monster Hunter on PC?

what other hope is there?

>>15272740

No because you're not supporting monster hunter, you're supporting yolo XD streamer bait the game wearing the skin of a game you once liked.

>>15272740

You should never buy a game with the idea that you're supporting a company, buy a game if you want said game.

>>15272993

A gun in your mouth

>>15272993

By playing the game, you'll be handed victory. There is no strategy.

>>15272382

Honestly, playing an actual MonHun, World is designed specifically so that players don't have to git gud.

>>15272654

>It's more challenging than 3U and even P3rd I'll say that much

No? They were certainly easier than FU, but they're still worlds (heh) tougher than World.

>it only starts getting the wheels turning once you get to tobi, before that the game is insultingly easy.

If by "Tobi" you mean "Tempered Kirin"

>On the plus side the combat is the best the series has ever had

If you prefer speedier combat like in DMC or Musou type games to the slower combat of the MonHun games, sure.

>>15272740

Why would you do that? We already have Monster Hunter on PC via PCSX2, PPSSPP, and sooner or later Citra.

>>15273395

Sounds great, see you in a day or two then!

>>15273398

But anon, the Arch Tempered monsters are great content and well designed, who doesn't enjoy getting oneshotted by 90% of the monster's attacks? I mean, what even is artificial difficulty, is that a meme?

>>15272740

You wouldn't be supporting Monster Hunter. World is basically a new IP, with only shallow connections to the series. There isn't any hope anyway, World has done so well we will likely never get a more traditional style game again.

>>15273398

Yes, 3U US is insanely easy until maybe the ending of High rank thanks to that boost of 50 armor points the US release got, it only started busting my balls during G-rank.

As for p3rd I honestly can't remember a monster that gave me a challenge, Barroth was easy, Tigrex was castrated, I think I got carted once to Brute Tigrex's autistic roar but that was it.

Oh Sand Barioth was hard tough, I enjoyed making his set.

It's very clear that monster move slower than usual in that game. Even Zinogre feels slow.

I don't remember failing a quest during my entire time playing p3rd but I do remember carting, however in world I did lose quite a bit of quests to regular Nergigantes and Teostras, they catch up to you quickly so even though you can heal and run they can still get you, if every monster in world was this fast I wouldn't have a problem with the changes they made to healing.

Sadly that's not the case and Tobi is the first monster capable of being fast enough to catch the player in the act as well as doing a good amount of damage compared to the monsters that come before it. He's a wake up call. Which is what I meant.

I never had much issue with Kirin on my end, having played against kirin so many times I really knew what to do with a Greatsword, but I can see why others would have a problem.

>If you prefer speedier combat like in DMC or Musou type games to the slower combat of the MonHun games, sure

First off, I hope you aren't implying that DMC and Musou games play the same way and meant only to compare them speed wise, which is still wrong but I can understand your point.

Do you consider the changes they did since the third generation to be bad compared to previous titles? Because they sped up the combat since then and I've never seen anyone complaining. All World did combat wise was implement some of the arts found in XX to an integrated moveset making it flow much better while keeping the weapons individuality.

It's also the game where most weapons are viable, so yes, I would say that world did a good job on the combat department.

>>15273395

I would wait to pirate it since I heard dodgy things about the port but I hope everything goes fine on your end.

>>15273434

Aren't they pretty much the Apex from 4U mechanic wise?

>>15273610

>Aren't they pretty much the Apex from 4U mechanic wise?

They're the exact same as their normal versions, but they have more health and they oneshot you with most of their attacks, especially Kirin.

Any chance a Hunter will be a playable character in Smash 5? Rathalos is a boss and assist trophy.

>>15273628

Ah okay, I was hoping they would at least have different attacks, that's disappointing.

I was hoping that was going to be what differentiates normal Tempered to Arch Tempered.

>>15273610

>Yes, 3U US is insanely easy until maybe the ending of High rank thanks to that boost of 50 armor points the US release got

Ah, 3U specifically, fair enough there.

>I don't remember failing a quest during my entire time playing p3rd but I do remember carting, however in world I did lose quite a bit of quests to regular Nergigantes and Teostras, they catch up to you quickly so even though you can heal and run they can still get you, if every monster in world was this fast I wouldn't have a problem with the changes they made to healing.

I don't think I've ever even carted to Nerg, and Teo only because of getting caught in a supernova once. They're pathetically slow and telegraph their moves a ton, the only monster of any respectable speed is Odogaron, who's a joke damage wise.

>Sadly that's not the case and Tobi is the first monster capable of being fast enough to catch the player in the act

But he's not though.

>First off, I hope you aren't implying that DMC and Musou games play the same way and meant only to compare them speed wise, which is still wrong but I can understand your point.

I'm aware they don't play similarly at all, I was just throwing out examples of games with combat that's got more emphasis on speed than MonHun.

>Do you consider the changes they did since the third generation to be bad compared to previous titles?

Some yes, some no.

>Because they sped up the combat since then and I've never seen anyone complaining.

We used to get people hating on third generation all the time here and holding up 2nd G/FU as the golden standard of the series, it's just been overshadowed by the line now being between people who are for and against World.

>Aren't they pretty much the Apex from 4U mechanic wise?

Apex was also god awful and definitely the worst idea 4U had.

>>15273734

>I would challenge you that relics are worse than Apex since at least Apex mats are standardised and global for all weapons, but getting the right skin for relics often meant fighting apex anyway so they really are the dumbest thing.

Relics/Guild Quests are why I specified it as 4U instead of 4 as a whole, though I'm still inclined to think of Apex as worse simply because they lead to gameplay just kind of shutting down every couple minutes when the Drive stone runs out, which is the problem with balancing your game around multiplayer. Also, you can pretty much wholly ignore Relics and Guild Quests, whereas Apex are required to "finish" the game per se.

>>15273868

>lead to gameplay just kind of shutting down every couple minutes when the Drive stone runs out

Well most end-game plays are WE spam anyway, but it's true that basically everything that needs to keep up meter, use elem or doesn't have really good hitzone accuracy (basically everything except GS, maybe lance and specific gunner sets) gets totally shat on as far as any sort of normal play goes. It would've been fine if it was just damage boosts and maybe like a third to half of the weaker hitzones get their def value bumped up to bounce range, but it's retarded that basically everything short of like 40+ hitzones becomes completely untouchable without drive. Also why the hell were status/elem split of into an extra wystone? It's not as if status and elem weps aren't already losing out on raw or sharpness, if they were going to force it into a wystone it really should've been something ridiculous like 3X output on monster in apex/frenzy state insteda of the pitiful 1.2 or whatever, since you're sacrificing a wystone in addition to the raw damage and if you fail to hit a status threshold before the stone runs out the monster is basically guaranteed to recover back down to zero by the time you get another chance to use it, whereas the offense and defense wystones are just flat boosts that are always good.

I'm torn on world. I have a feeling it will be empty compared to the mainline games. Also the fact that there is this gay as shit story hamfisted in, someone please tell capcom thats not why people liked the game, they liked it for the hunting.

>>15272382

As you can plainly see, if you mention MHW at all in any way that isn't negative you get flamed at by salty huntards. I won't be getting the PC port since I already have MHW and the PC port has Denuvo.

>>15274394

I'm 22c98d my ip is dynamic.

>>15273734

Got a wiki for her?

>>15274433

I don't hate the older games and I hope this entices capcom to release some of the never-translated games to the west; and there are a lot of them.

Monster Hunter stories or whatever any good?

>>15274468

Its a standard JRPG in the MH world. Do it if the idea of riding monsters into battle as your allies makes you irresistibly hard, pass otherwise.

>>15274468

It has a piece of shit rock paper scissors combat system which is extremely unfun and braindead, then the story is nothing but generic Sunday morning shounen-shit for little kids.

The game felt so empty and bland to explore and play around in too.

Dont bother with the game if you still value all the time you have on this earth, you can spend all of those hours doing or playing something better.

>>15274433

>MH is really hitting it big nowadays isnt it?

MH has always been big you retarded mongoloid.

The fact that its big in the west now is not a good thing.

>>15274468

It's enjoyable and while the combat seems braindead, it isn't. The main problem is that the updates that add more partner monsters never made it to the west, so you'd need to play the import to have things like Rajang, Teostra, and KushalaDaora as a partner.

Has MH always had basic combat, Hammer in World is very boring after some use since its the same repetitive moves, its not very deep. I thought you could level up and unlock new moves like DmC or Yakazu. The other weapons don't really appeal to me because they're all the same really, all the weapons are able to take down dinosaurs, they're one size fits all. Also the world doesn't feel very open, its feels like I'm being channeled everywhere artificially. One thing I do like is capturing bugs, but not so much dinosaurs. I hate chasing them all over the map, its like versing microlash constantly. These are my dislikes so far, there is probs more though.

>>15275329

Yes

>>15275267

World is open in the sense that in the past arenas were connected by loading screens, just go watch some Monster Hunter Portable 3rd gameplay and you'll see what I mean. It certainly isn't "Open world" as far as a single continuous world goes, not that they couldn't have done it that way. Astera has ground paths to multiple zones and there are passages in the background that allude to there being more (ground passages to different areas.) Just goes to show that even on the main promised feature of Monster Hunter V Capcom cuts back.

>World is out

Time for delicious autistic salt.

>>15275793

The only benefit of World's level design is the fact that there are no loading screens between zones. Instead, you have long boring hallways with nothing in them, and shittier maps in general. It doesn't even have a snow zone, for God's sakes.

>>15274249

It's a game that feels more like a generic Western action game than Monster Hunter.

>>15274293

You're welcome to say positive things about World if you can back them up intelligently. People reacted negatively because, regardless of whether you love or hate it, World is the absolute worst choice for one's first Monster Hunter title simply because as both sides agree it is so vastly different from what came before. Liking/hating World has pretty much nothing to do with whether you'll like or hate Monster Hunter.

>>15274433

What >>15275169 said - attempts to get a series popular in the West leads to garbage like DmC, Lords of Shadow, and New Gundam Breaker.

>>15274468

If you like playing rock-paper-scissors and I mean that literally, not elemental rock-paper-scissors ala Pokemon

>Has MH always had basic combat, Hammer in World is very boring after some use since its the same repetitive moves, its not very deep. I thought you could level up and unlock new moves like DmC or Yakazu

Monster Hunter has always given you weapons with a moveset and encouraged you to master it to battle a variety of bosses that vastly overpower you. The complexity was in the monsters rather than the weapons.

>>15275879

If you haven't played any game before then it doesn't matter if its different from previous titles, and all the more reason to make it your first entry. You're basically admitting that you only dislike World for being different.

>>15275877

It opens up certain chasing strategies and there are gather points in the hallways. It lets you take in the scenery. Here you are trying to make a feature of world seem like a drawback/a bad thing. The mental gymnastics of the /mhg/ manchildren and their derangement on display, /v/. Don't let them dissuade you from posting about MHW.

>>15275939

>I can't believe I fucking spent eighty dollars for Denuvo

lmao

>>15275932

flashing them while they run and getting a few hits in. Its more useful if they try to fly away. If you hit a monster that's limping away you get a few free hits then they just run like they weren't injured at all and were just pretending.

I'm surprised you kids will suddenly act like you're completely ignorant on a topic just for the sake of argument. Then again, I probably shouldn't be.

>>15275939

Main a rope and hang yourself.

>>15275930

>If you haven't played any game before then it doesn't matter if its different from previous titles

If you have zero intention to play the rest of the series, yes.

>and all the more reason to make it your first entry.

How do you even begin to come to that conclusion?

>You're basically admitting that you only dislike World for being different.

And what's wrong with that? It's different in ways that I feel are overwhelmingly worse than the main series, with only a handful of minor QoL improvements to compensate.

>It opens up certain chasing strategies

If by "chasing strategies" you mean stalling them for two or three attacks worth mid-move then letting them resume moving to another area.

>and there are gather points in the hallways.

There's nothing particularly special about that though.

>It lets you take in the scenery.

Entirely meaningless fluff.

>Here you are trying to make a feature of world seem like a drawback/a bad thing.

It IS a drawback, just because they marketed it as a feature doesn't make it one.

>>15273691

I guess we'll both disagree, I played mostly with a greatsword and felt like Nergigante was a pain once I lost my rhythm, his ground pound has an insane hitbox because of his spikes and I ended up getting caught in it a lot, until I realized I could abuse iframes if I just laid there. I do think Teo is easier, but he is faster than his FU counter part where he would mostly stand still and spam blast and sometimes dash. That being said I found him to be easy once I figured him out, although he can catch up quickly, a friend of mine played mostly ranged weapons through World and said that he's a nightmare to solo because he's always in your face.

And I do consider tobi to be a wake up call, unlike the monsters that came before him such as jagras/baroth/kulu ya ku that were all easy even if you spam attacks, tobi is fast enough to punish players who take this approach, it's the game telling you to observe the monster, just like in any other monster hunter, he also hits much harder and this is true, in LR he's tail smash would take away almost 3/4 of my health.

I'm not saying that he's a hard monster to fight, I'm saying that he punishes players who act carelessly, I assume that most players that have already played any monster hunter game didn't have a problem with him. But I also assume those players don't have any problem with LR contend.

I'm curious to what those complaints over the 3rd generation are, to me the gameplay just seemed to have evolved perfectly from the previous games, improving movesets and fixing hitboxes was a major step.

>Apex was also god awful and definitely the worst idea 4U had.

Oh I'm aware, though I never got very far in 4U because playing on a standard 3ds made my hands hurt, but atleast in 4u the design was different and they would've some different moves didn't they? In World they just get a fresh coat of paint and nothing else, I can understand time restrictions and implementing tempered monsters but arch tempered just feels down right lazy.

>>15275991

Okay I get you're angry but you don't really prove anything but your intense salt by calling me an idiot.

>>15275986

It isn't a drawback though. Here you are saying you prefer loading screens between arenas for some flimsy reason you made up just to put up a fight against someone pointing out something MHW does better than in previous titles.

You guys just aren't as smart as you think you are.

>>15276041

Okay that's fair, that's your preference and its something you're used to doing since that's how it worked in previous titles. It requires a bit of suspension of belief to work with it, and the casual crowd is notoriously short on imagination.

>>15276049

You need therapy.

>>15276053

>and the casual crowd is notoriously short on imagination

Pretty much, I remember when I was playing 4U with my best buddy we started shooting the shit about how people don't want loading screens so Capcom is gonna remove them but keep the area/corridor design you see on the map. If only we had known what horror we were unleashing then.

>>15276006

>a friend of mine played mostly ranged weapons through World and said that he's a nightmare to solo because he's always in your face.

The main problem there is just the usual Teo problem of him nullifying bullets a lot.

>I'm not saying that he's a hard monster to fight, I'm saying that he punishes players who act carelessly, I assume that most players that have already played any monster hunter game didn't have a problem with him. But I also assume those players don't have any problem with LR contend.

I'll have to take your word on that, since I can't really erase my previous experience to try it as a brand new player. Kagachi just didn't stand out to me as vastly different from the rank and file that came before or after; even Anjanaf for all the bluster seemed just barely above -drome tier.

>>15276025

>It isn't a drawback though. Here you are saying you prefer loading screens between arenas for some flimsy reason you made up just to put up a fight against someone pointing out something MHW does better than in previous titles.

It is a drawback though - it means you've got more dead time doing nothing but running through an empty corridor instead of getting back to the fighting. It's not even like you're actually saving time on the loading screens either, since you just do all the loading before and after every quest anyway.

>>15276053

>It requires a bit of suspension of belief to work with it, and the casual crowd is notoriously short on imagination.

Which is the real root of the problem: I don't care about the "real world" logic of it, and I certainly don't give a damn about what normalfags want. I just want a fun video game.

>>15276107

>If you're smart you can get to the next arena the monster is heading to before he actually gets there.

And it's still a waste of time that could be spent fighting the monster instead.

>>15276124

You could say that about monster fleeing mechanics in general.

>>15276127

I do. It's one thing if it's changing to an arena that might actually change the fight, like how Lagiacrus in third generation might flee to a water area to take the fight aquatic where it absolutely has an advantage compared to a land battle, but otherwise I just find the monster fleeing to be a nuisance as a whole, and one that became five times worse in World due to area transitions taking that much longer.

>>15276117

Can you actually use that rifle?

Okay but how's the port? Does it run like ass or no?

>>15276278

isnt out on PC yet, 20 mins.

>>15276297

Oh damnit.

>>15276410

Great so the shills can finally fuck off again like they did after it launched on console

>>15276459

Thats what you think, it doesn't run on 60% of cards now. see >>15276102

>>15276504

there's a mantle that flat out gives you auto evasion on attacks. Skill isn't even in the same county as people who play world

>>15276331

youre not missing much. its a multiplayer focused mess of a game with an overcrowded HUD and broken gameplay mechanics that are easily abused.

Does anyone know what the general consensus of MHW is in Japan? Trying to determine if there's any hope left for traditional MH games.

>>15276532

you mean use the rocksteady, the other 90 massive defense mantles to completely cheese your way through the entire game without ever having to learn anything.

Or even better just get someone to carry your dumb skill free ass with the free drop in and drop out multiplayer hunts!

>>15276537

It sold well for a home console game, but poorly for a Monster Hunter game.

>>15276532

That's the only defense possible, it does come very late game but it's still overly moronic, it's pretty much just a constant automatic Absolute Evasion.

>>15276541

that mantle comes only after you've already beaten the game. but yes you can have people carry you, but that's been in every game.

>>15276544

You got any sauce to back that up?

>>15276548

Having someone carry your dumb ass in the other games doesn't give you an absurdly overpowered skill. Fairly Certain killing a 140 hunt in 4U gives you the ability to have near invincibility for 30 seconds

I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY DID THIS TO THE MONHUN GIBBERISH LANGUAGE WHAT THE FUCK

Am I going to have to play in Japanese?! I'm not touching English.

>>15276555

I'm not defending it, but his point was that you could clear the whole game with it, which is a lie.

The only possible defense these overpowered mantles can have is that they come post-game, it's still shitty, and I wish they would remove them.

There is no excuse for the temporal mantle.

>>15276557

mongun gibberish language at least in p3rd is a bunch of jap shit said backwards I think? but now they tried to make sense of it so it sounds terrible

just play it with jap dub honestly.

>>15276548

>yes you can have people carry you, but that's been in every game.

There was still Village that locked off stuff in the main games - as much as I hate Wystones, for instance, they were something that required you to play single player to get at least. World lets you cheese literally every quest in the game with multiplayer.

>>15276549

In easy-to-Internet form, no - most of the online stuff I'm finding that's anywhere near recent is worldwide numbers, with no specific notes on the home front. If I find anything, I'll report back.

>>15276557

>>15276582

Personally I responded to their overfocus on story shit by setting the voices to MonHun gibberish, turning off subtitles, and mashing O through every bit of dialogue. I don't know nor care about the "epic tale" they want to tell.

>>15276581

It existing at all is the issue. Besides they don't even give it to you at the end of the postgame.

Not to mention all the great time locked quests that exist. Want to hunt Boring Gold Dragon? Too bad that quest was only for 2 weeks a month ago.

>>15276496

Looks cool, i've been meaning to play it anyway.

>>15276548

>but yes you can have people carry you

you don't need to

in single player the monster stagger limit are Freedom/MH1 tier

Highly recommend not starting the game in Monster Hunter language and start on lower graphics setting than you think you might be able to take.

Character creator is really fucking amazing actually, but the whole introductory segment is garbo if you fuck yourself over on language or settings because they don't let you change them 'till you're all the way through.

how much of a Waifu Maker 3000 is MHW?

>>15277009

haha yeah, your mom said you were into cute boys

>>15277051

lol no. Denuvo's still in the game, and they're ready to "repatch" it at any time

>>15277039

I hope they do it after they wait 2-3 weeks so all the retards cant refund anymore

>>15277059

Obviously it's till in the game but I saw a thread where it appeared to be causing people to not even have access to playing the game.

>>15277062

No idea why it even answered to the first post, I am pretty sure I didnt misclick…

>>15277064

is there anyway to change my appearance other than hair and shit on PC? i fucked up this nigga's eyes

>>15277069

Anon, don't even remind me. I'm very reluctant to get the game, even though i'd have someone to play it with.

>Mixed (66%)

>Apparently Xbone and PS4 controller support is fucked

>People struggling to get 60 FPS

>That's if you don't have a black screen or crash during tutorial

Baffling how they can push the port back so far and still fuck it up so badly.

whats the meme with mhw weapons?

the glaive looks cool so its likely piss poor..

>>15276544

I heard it'd sold 8 million copies BEFORE PC release. That seems high, even compared to other MH releases.

what chance have i got to run this on a gtx670?

>>15277453

None.

>>15277154

Anyone wanna watch the steam reviews changing and make some screenshots? They were at about 1500 User reviews and 66%, then for a very short time All reviews were gone and now its at about 1000 reviews and 68%. If they really just deleted 500 reviews they might be trying to bump up the reviewscore by writing some fake reviews/waiting for more and then deleting reviews again, while deleting more bad than good reviews so the score keeps going up by only a few percent every time they do this and most people wont notice.

>>15276504

I mean there's one that gives max ear plugs, max wind and tremor resistance, stops tripping and all knockback, and gives a massive defence up. With the only drawback in that it removes the invincibility frames you get fro being hit. Which doesn't matter too much since there's barely any rapid multi-hit moves.

>>15276939

You're missing literally nothing by not understanding what they're saying though.

>>15277051

Not yet, it only just came out and one of the main guys who resolves Denuvo got arrested, so it might take a little longer than usual.

>>15277154

If anything the port was rushed as fuck considering they have no experience with PC and were doing it alongside the updates. They probably needed at least another year though sadly that'd just be to make it a competent port, and they'd need even more time to actually fix the game itself

>>15277282

That's worldwide numbers, he was asking specifically about Japan. And it is higher than most MonHuns, but again, most of those sales are foreign, because 1) it's a home console release and those always do better than handheld releases in the foreign market, and 2) they actually bothered marketing it in the foreign market this time. It's also the first time you have a simultaneous release, since foreign releases of MonHun are usually more than a year late.

crack when?

>>15278747

>I just wanted to play again since my 3ds died

>you lived long enough to see drm get it's own system requirements

>>15279245

>it just feels so soulless and low-effort.

That's because it is

How the fuck do I play with you people?I don't get this online system at all

Also, I didn't point out, the port is pure dogshit, it has forced motion blur, some kind of fucked up camera acceleration, and it looks and runs worse than the PS4 version of the game.

>>15279596

This is true to a degree, but I'd disagree that it looks and runs worse. It's honestly fucking beautiful and runs like silk compared to console, it's just that it's very obviously a lazy fucking port that treats the mouse like analog stick input and has the most archaic fucking multiplayer of anything in the last two decades, to show for their "haha give us 6 months to GET IT RIGHT"

>>15279612

PC version actually has worse texture quality than the PS4.

>>15279624

>everyone complains about MHW so every new DLC has been harder than the previous

No the reason the DLCs are harder than the previous is because they have to keep the game engaging because "games as a service". It's pure powercreep, it's why Jho's weapons were better than everything else otherwise people would bitch there's no point in fighting it.

A friend of mine said AT Teostra is boring anyways, all it does is more explosions and is overall very easy.

>>15279626

Arch tempered Teostra is not out yet

>>15279642

Yes he is, check again.

>>15279626

>Misinformation.

>A friend of mine said….

Games as a service normally mean always online and all the dlc is paid. You can download the hunt dlc for free and play that shit offline. I don't really find MHW engaging at all ended up trading it in for Tri on the Wii U. MHW is rather boring and dull but its not a game as a service.

>>15279662

>game as a service

>DLC is paid

The opposite. DLC is free, but it's either minimal or introduces a shitload of ways to jew you with microtransactions. Example: NuBattlefront.

>>15279674

Fair point DLC side but MHW can be played offline. "Games as a service" is a term bigger companies are starting to use so they can implement always online drm. Capcom is retarded they think SFV and MHW are "games as a service" when really they are just "shit games with tons of DLC" regardless if the DLC is free or not.

>>15279683

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Games_as_a_service

Jewkipedia link, but Games as a Service is basically a game that keeps getting updated in order to extend it's revenue stream. By releasing updates with the focus on retaining player attention in order to sell new DLC (in this case cosmetics), MHW fits in the Games as a Service label, even if you can play it offline.

>thousands of hours across previous games

ISHYGDDT, what a fucking travesty.

>>15279849

>unskippable cutscenes

To be fair MonHun's always had those, it just wasn't really a problem until 4th gen when they started shoving them in constantly, and then multiplied in World where half the fucking game is boring unskippable cut scenes.

>>15279695

Your missing the point. Games as a service started out like that yes but now its just code for DRM. It started out as an OK'ish idea that morphed into a full on shower of shit.

>>15276133

This will have to go to the old style of quests where you're pulled 20-60 seconds after completing a quest so the hunting ground can reset. Seamless areas can work with smaller huntimg grounds and lots of shortcuts you and the monsters can modify like tunnels and fallen tree bridges. And having paths too big to become arenas themselves. Sounds like World went full retard with level design and AI to instead focus on changing everything else for casual pandering.

>>15279964

>Many years ago I got Monhun for my PSP. I could tell why everyone liked the game so much, but the problem was I was the only one I knew who had a PSP, and the controls were too fucky for me to enjoy by myself.

You can emulate the PSP titles on PPSSPP and modify controls to your liking now.

>I was wondering if some of the newer iterations of the series are well regarded like on 3DS.

On the 3DS, there's 3U, 4U, and XX. 3U is pretty well liked, although the non-Japanese releases got fucked over by an unremovable defense boost that trivializes the first 2/3 of the game, and if multiplayer is a make or break for you, that's limited to local multiplayer unless you go for the Wii U port. 4U has online multiplayer and is reasonably well liked, though it has it's fair share of flaws. XX is by a sub-team instead of the main team, but still plays mostly like the main series but with stupid special moves/styles added on; if those are ignored it's not awful though not the best, and certainly more like a Monster Hunter game than World even pretends to be.

>There seems to be one coming out on Switch this month. Does this game look like a worthy entry in the series, or will it be too babby like MHW?

That's actually a port of XX, and it came out last year, what's coming out next month is just the (((localized))) version. See above.

>Sounds like World went full retard with level design and AI to instead focus on changing everything else for casual pandering.

Exactly.

>>15280010

Thanks for the elaborate answer anon.

>>15280010

Yes, I'm still that guy who proposes remaking Forest and Hills into a seamless hunting area and making it WORK with the new AI system before making MonHunV for Switch, with a stylized painted art style of course. Swimming has to come back. Torches have to come back. You can climb any tree but climbing crumbling mountains is out of the question. There will be tunnels you can use to go under the hills and into a new arena, a ruin with a working dragonator and ballistas.

The goal is to make Fatalis a possible free roaming monster on this map. Yes, fighting Fatalis in Forest and Hills will be your urgent quest before G-rank. It's a pipe dream, but this is to show how modular I want to retool World's tech for MonHunV to be.

I'll take intelligent design and good artwork over "cinematic" graphical experiences any day.

>>15279624

>it's harder!

>when you have a literal invincibility mantle.

God is this what world has turned people into

>>15280605

Dude you're just entitled, just ignore the monsters having awful AI, absurdly low stagger resist. After all you can somehow ignore everything else you dunce

>>15280605

>just don't run around while drinking if you want the same experience as before

>just ignore the flaws that'll make them go away

the absolute state of World faggots

I'd like to give Monster Hunter a go, and now that it's clear the MHW port is hot garbage, I seek the wisdom of you Anons in determining what game I should play first. Which of the monster hunter games that can be emulated is best for a newcomer who likes challenging gameplay?

>>15280735

Play the original and get used to the controls then chuck that out the window and play P3rd or for a unique aesthetic also play MHFU and I guess 4 is okay

I'm sure the port would have been tolerable had denuvo not been included ontop of steam.

>>15280615

It's not about ignoring them, it's about just not using them. None of the casual training wheels replace existing mechanics so as long as you don't use them it's essentially the same as a traditional MH game. The AI and stagger resist problems aren't things you can just not use because they're issues with a fundamental aspect of the game, which is why they're legitimate things to complain about.

>>15280629

>>15280656

That's just it though: they're only flaws if you actually use them, which you don't have to. How does the existence of a mechanic that you can simply choose to not utilize affect your experience in any way?

>>15280782

Dude just ignore the stagger you fucking retard. God entitled gamer 94 strikes again

>>15280782

>eating shit is great, just ignore the look, taste and smell of it and there should be no problems.

>>15280782

>How does the existence of a mechanic that you can simply choose to not utilize affect your experience in any way

because the core gameplay is designed with casuals in mind you fucking mongoloid

Theres a reason why all the TAs for MHW are 3 minutes or less.

oh no it's fun but not good

Is MHW cracked yet? I was going to buy it but there is no fucking way I am getting Denuvo on my computer

>>15281136

No. Wait until they release it on gog or something

>>15281179

It's gonna get a crack before that ever happens.

>>15281136

The only person who could crack it is rotting in Bulgarian jail right now.

>>15281179

(lol)

>>15281186

I hope you're right

>>15281188

What's funny? They'll release MHW on gog eventually just for the extra profits

>>15281211

>capcom

>gog

That's never going to happen.

>>15281216

What makes you so sure? The game will be cracked at some point, so they'll have no reason not to release it on gog as well

>>15281098

As somebody who's played them all from PSP through to today except the WiiU/Switch versions, even I think you're talking out your fucking ass

6.5 for that game is reasonable given how poorly and stiff it controls, not to mention the hitboxes on said monsters are far far far bigger than the actual models

>>15281227

Because they doubled down hard enough to use denuvo, they are never gonna put it on gog. Also japs are hardly know steam exists, I doubt gog is remotely on their radar. also >>15281226

>>15281211

Anon I don't think Capcom has a single game released on GoG. Even out of all their shit without Denuvo let alone the stuff they paid thousands to "protect".

>Capcom recently gave an interview saying game sales don't matter what is most important is game quality

>Decides to put Denuvo DRM into all their PC releases

>A DRM that by all indications can severely diminish the way the game runs unless you have a relatively new CPU

>The only benefit it provides is possibly preventing piracy of the game for up to a month normally

>Literally sacrificing quality of their games only for extra sales

>>15281310

Maybe they'll remove it, r-right?

>>15281370

I highly doubt it but it isn't completely unprecedented. Rime and nuDoom both did and I think Evil Within 2 did as well since the game was cracked before it was released. Apparently China is really mad about Denuvo as well because of the FMA3 bullshit. Apparently a lot of China has older CPUs and Capcom was boasting about all the chinese sales they got. So maybe it will get removed but yeah this is Capcom so its like a 2% chance.

>>15281226

Dargon's Dogma made it's way to gog.

>>15281434

Room?

>>15280516

The invincibility mantle is pretty much equivalent to knocking a monster out of Apex in MH4U. It makes it so you can finally fight it without being completely defensive minded. However you are not invincible around Val Hazack, Teostra, and Lunastra. MHW was incredibly easy at launch with only a few exceptions like tempered Kirin. However everything they have added has been pretty challenging. Also that limit on flash bombs made the tempered Kushala Daora and tempered Azure Rathalos significantly harder as well. If they ever put out a G-rank the game might be really fucking good if they keep with the trends.

Cannot connect, session does not exist.

>>15281706

Make one

>>15281813

I can't I just got to Magdoros

>>15281838

Are you on fucking PC anon?

>>15281838

Did you fucking buy the PC version?

>>15281868

Well I'm sorry to let you down since I wanted to play and it directly affects me.

What I'm not sorry about is you buying the game and thinking 8/v would do the same.

>>15281868

I'd play with you anon.

Just kidding the servers are shit, jesus christ capcom

>>15281928

I wonder if the servers are fucked because they share the console servers and Tempered Teo just launched. Or Capcom just put nothing into the PC servers.

>>15281911

At least I don't own a console.

>>15281928

Holy fuck, right? The disconnects are insane so far from what I've experienced.

>>15281953

The console servers always go to shit the weekend a new monster launches.

>>15281936

From what I've heard they are directly tied to steam services and I know that sounds obvious but for example whenever I get disconnected steam logs me out and I have to either wait or reconnect again.

So it's either capcom or steam. I bet on capcom's incompetence.

>>15281953

I changed my region to France on steam, seems to have helped, I still get disconnected but at least I can connect to an online session and sometimes get to complete a quest.

>>15282008

Yeah my friend was playing last night and steam kept logging him out for 2nd. He said he never d/ced though.

>>15281228

>6.5 for that game is reasonable given how poorly and stiff it controls

So, you've never played a game with actually poor and stiff controls?

>>15281310

>Capcom recently gave an interview saying game sales don't matter what is most important is game quality

If they honestly believe that, we'll get Monster Hunter 5 instead of World 2.

>>15281868

>Buying a game without a physical release on the piracy machine

>>15282278

You'd think people would read the review posted in the OP constantly.

Aside from MHW, what's the best looking MonHun graphics-wise?

>>15276939

>character creator is amazing

It's literally incredibly basic. theres barely any variance at all whatsoever, except for predefined positions.

>>15283110

Nigger, I literally made a trap out of the male base character. You can change brow shape and type. They got character creation right.

>>15283056

confirmed uncrackable, but there is one way that is known to work. involves delidding your CPU and bridging two SMD caps.

>>15283117

And yet you can't increase eye size, or eyelid height, or neck height, or jaw outline, or a myriad of other shit. It's all bundled into "face outline", brow, etc. It's basic as fuck. Even fucking attack on titan 2 had more customization options than it.

>>15283151

>>15283117

Compare mhw's character creator to dragons dogma, which lets you create significantly more and is also limited.

>>15283145

>confirmed uncrackable

Found the Steam employee

Do we have a steam /mhg/ group?

How else am I supposed to find people to play with?

>>15283218

>Do we have a steam /mhg/ group?

No

>>15283218

Matchmaking?

>>15283151

The fact that you can't modify the character's chin pissed me off to no end, because all of the square faces are extreme nochins.

>>15281936

apparently theres 250,000 concurrent players, so sorta like an MMO launch, too many people.

Is there a way to turn off the bloom in MHW? It's murdering my performance and my eyes.

>>15283700

>All these autists hipsters in the thread whining about QOL improvements to monster hunter world

But I haven't heard anyone complaining about having all the items in one stack instead of multiple stacks of 99 in the bin, or being able to see the "full" weapon tree all at once.

>Pretending it's a niche series that's becoming more casual.

>When it's literally the Call of Duty of Japan and prints Yen every year.

It isn't milked nearly as hard as CoD, though I agree it's hardly niche. That said, it absolutely has been getting more casual, and World is especially bad about it.

>>15283700

>QOL improvements

Give examples because most chucklefucks think everything's a QoL improvement even when it straight up changes the way you fucking play.

>>15285027

Auto-crafting ( materials turn into stuff straight away, e.g, herbs into pots, ammo etc.)

Whetstone is infinite uses.

>>15285193

Those are good examples of things no one complains about.

>>15281501

Not at all, it's more the equivalent of taking 90% of a monster's attacks away because the game is pathetic.

>>15281434

whoa 3 whole monsters! Move over any other game, we have 3 whole monsters that can psuedo damage you if you're pants on head retarded! Truly this is the True Monster Hunter Experience that the world NEEDED. We should all buy the emotes to support this fantastic game that makes me feel like I'm pro!

>>15285431

They can't, they need to stay long enough to earn their World-shilling paychecks.

>>15285469

funnily enough with enough advertising you can easily have both! regardless of the quality of the game see MHW

>>15281501

>The invincibility mantle is pretty much equivalent to knocking a monster out of Apex in MH4U

No its fucking not. You need to actually hit an apex monster to knock it out off its apex form which means you need to be familiar with its movesets and work around moves that can one shot you.

>>15285193

I'd argue whetstones taking one less inventory space makes inventory management easier (as in you get to bring more shit) but World's inventory system already took care of any "problems" regarding limited amount of items you can carry.
