Anyone who says underwater combat is just a gimmick is an idiot. It wasn’t some button mashing minigame or a simple power‑up button, it was an environmental expansion that took the game in a whole new direction, one that actually fit its tropical island theme.

Underwater combat forced you to be deliberate. You couldn’t just spam rolls. You had to manage verticality and oxygen. It made you feel vulnerable and the game feel more like survival, like you were really a hunter. Aquatic monsters like Lagiacrus had entirely different personalities underwater. They went from being kind of clumsy on land to terrifyingly in the water and that put you at a disadvantage, exactly as it should.

Saying that underwater combat is just a gimmick is a perfect sign of a serious skill issue.

P3rd is king.
3U is baby first MH
GU/4U are best modern monster hunters
World/Rise/Wilds are NOT monster hunter, if you like these games you don't like monster hunter, you just like the idea of playing monster hunter.

World doesn't play like a real monster hunter.
>>
>>730593304
Calling 3U 'baby’s first MH' when P3rd didn’t even have g rank is pretty contradictory.
>>
>>730593649
3U and Tri released for the wii U and the wii. Basically it's a dogshit title that only broccoli heads and people with a love for a game that's somehow slower than unite enjoy.

It has nothing to do with difficulty. World is difficult and it's garbage. Wilds is starting to get difficult and it's garbage. Difficulty doesn't make or break a game and P3rd is the easily the best monster hunter ever made alongside GU.

kill yourself.

You will take your mounts (even by accident) several times per hunt and you will like them. If not now then the next game when they're even easier and more frequent

Underwater IS the OG gimmick, every gen since then has had a gimmick, Underwater is just so shit that they can see how make it work

this is a good game but both 4G and XX mop the floor with it.

If you've already played p3rd and FU then play 4U next.

4U will be mostly new stuff whereas GU is a compilation game full of things you've already seen from p3rd and FU
>>
>>730599060
XX on 3DS is the exact same game as GU on Switch, you won’t miss anything unless you care about graphics. One of my friends is an HBG main and says he prefers XX over GU because it’s so easy to quickly craft stuff using the bottom screen. The crafting in GU isn’t as convenient.

4u is a bit mixed. It actually does have a fun story where you travel to different places. And aside from the super-large monsters, which are actually good for once, it's monster roster is less than good, the maps are also not great.

Why is this ALWAYS the case? I'm playing through monhon 1 and it's beautiful. Got all the way to kut ku before getting any upgrades before he kicked my shit in. Considered going the sleepy bomb route until I think I discovered the trick to these games. You're supposed to just find the strongest weapon you can craft from gatherables without fighting any monsters and then make that to fight all the monsters huh? Unfortunately I think I just wasted a few hours doing the mushroom gathering quest at forest and plains grinding earth crystals for the cyclone when I should have been doing the jungle mushroom quest to mine malachite AND earth crystals for the cyclone. I'll get back to ya'll once I got my cyclone.
>>
>>730601717
I always liked it, retard. The amount of cool stuff that can be done with underwater creatures in terms of design rules. We would never get shit like Gobul in a new game

Oh yeah and at which entry in the series do the Melynx get genocided? I was trying to take wyvern egg back to the village to help a sick person and they destroyed it and stole my combo book 1 which was 1000z.

Tri and 3U also had limited time events and other online content, World just pushed harder on this, but older titles were already going in that direction.

I don't think they want underwater combat the same way it was in tri. Fatalis was a boring ass damage sponge and it became one of the best fights in the series with some changes, I want underwater combat to be back but with major changes to make it not feel like ass

I like it the most outside of the underwater stuff, which isn't very much of the game thankfully. 3rd gen maps are just too good outside of the flooded forest

You're right, actually.
MH3U is fucking amazing and the WiiU experience was unironically the GOAT way of playing it with the Gamepad in its stand as the secondary screen with map + info while you played on the big TV with the great pro controller.

I loved that stuff. Hence why I got some 1500 hours in it.
>>
>>730602591
Tri did but 3U didn't, Loc Lac is not Tanzia
On top of that, event quests in older games didn't actually introduce or lock new content behind them (aside from Jhen in Loc Lac), they were all monsters already on-disc that gave extra collab and joke armor and weapons (that were also on-disc that you could simply hack in before the proper release)

I wish the online wasn't gated behind the wiiU, and that the wiiU port had more work put into it than just being pretty blatantly the 3DS version but upscaled.
>>
>>730602990
the point is that Capcom didn't actually have the means to make MH into a live service series until World with consoles that could download a shit ton of extra data, where previously everything actually had to be on the game that shipped and therefore could easily be accessed without online checks, monsters as well weren't locked behind the event quests other than Jhen, which was the one game out of dozens that actually did that and was met with backlash.

Yeah, you couldn’t even access events without connect to tge internet in World. Does that still apply to Rise? I haven’t played it yet.

>>
>>730604330
god I hate the clutch claw and tenderizing. All they had to do was give every weapon a combo that would use the claw, but they didn't so if you wanted to get anything done in a reasonable amount of time you'd need to break the flow of combat to latch onto a monster to weaken it.

>>730604214
I liked Palamutes, they were a nice alternative to Palicos to grant mobility over combat/utility and didn't mess with anything gameplay wise, it's a shame all of those unique armor and weapon designs aren't being used anymore
>>
>>730604441
verticality and mounting is ok. mounting only sucked in 4U specifically because you weren't allowed to hit a monster during a mount, and every frenchman on the planet was playing IG. the more vertical levels was generally fine outside of some areas which were really obnoxious, like the center room in ancient steppe and the hollows in general.

Got my assassin's dagger. Can Cyclone wait until volcano? I just learned that you can get malachite from the vein in the wyvern lair in forest.

>>
>>730605632
mh had a near perfect mult lobby system before world and they made it shit with by combining solo and multiplayer quest together and forcing you to go through a dogshit story that forces you to do shit solo

monster hunter maps have also become trash by forcing it to all be one big map instead the maps being Multiple zones

I don't think any of the maps in mhw are either fun or good to look at for most part
>>
>>730607019
malachite's a general rare get from ore veins, it's much easier to get in volcanos which is where you can also get dragonite
as long as you're comfortable with your hunt times, weapon upgrades can be put off until you get further with access to more stuff
>>
>>730607019
Bear in mind you're changing weapon types by upgrading. The boomer games did that. DB will be harder to solo with than SnS in gen 1. Are you playing the first game on PS2? You can have fun with it but I strongly recommend playing MHF1 on PSP.

keep hitting him until he dies more times, hit his head more than his legs or body to kill him faster, make weapons and armor from him to kill him faster, then move on

>>
>>730608584
iirc flash bombs would help you more, well timed when he's hovering about the ground it'll ground him and he'll just tail swing for a long time. Might want to look up monster hit zones as you go, they may not be intuitive plus there's elemental as well. I think this guy's weakness in gen 1 was actually the wings if you're on a cut weapon. Legs definitely took little damage.

base world's online functionality blew ass and I hate what SoS flares have done for the culture of lobby hosting. you used to put up farming lobbies, cycling through players as you farmed for a rare drop, or you'd just host a room and people would take turns hosting stuff. The elimination of village/guild quests also made online a nightmare to do when progressing because you weren't allowed to all join the new quest and run it, you'd have to watch an unskippable cutscene, leave then rehost the lobby. you would also never see the other people in the lobby because you had no reason to leave the village, all the functionality was there with the actual lobby providing little to no reason to use.

The two good things world did was increase lobby size, and add guild lobbies or whatever so you could join a guild and join the guild room and everyone in that guild could use that as a hub for all their online activity. it was like a community server, which am a big fan of.

>and I hate what SoS flares have done for the culture of lobby hosting.
fuck you, World did a lot of thing wrong but the SOS system is singlehadedly the best addition, the lobby hosting was a humiliation ritual for most of us, I don't know anyone IRC that even knows what MH is and I don have spyware discord anywhere, fuck you I will defend SOS to death.

Underwater combat is great, IF you use Lance so you can zip and zoom and basically Dogfight. The main deal is that the "KEWL" Weapons that are flashy on land gets kinda get screwed and lame movesets comparatively and that makes fighting Divers with them a hassle.

oh they did, and we still played that way but not everyone would always be on all the time you know. must be hard to even consider the idea of availability of friends considering you have none at all

>>730610836
Doesn’t lance have major ass damage? I can’t imagine how you’d kill a mon like Ceadeus with it, that mon has a shitton of HP without running out of time first when you can only poke like three times before it swims away from you.

>>730611137
lots of projection for someone who is assmad about something that supposedly has no effect on their lives

>>730611472
I just explained to you how it affected me by saying sometimes I would be playing by myself because my friends wouldn't always be on. stupid, selfish, friendless and illiterate. a sadder anon I have not ever seen
>>
>>730590389
I liked MH4U more
>>
>>730611426
It's all about the dash anon. It has been a while but it was basically multihit if you can connect in a way you keep colliding with the monster (Ceadeus is easy because HUGE and has heavily telegraphed HIT HERE weakpoints) and it meant you could quickly re-approach when shit swam away. The issue was basically just stamina since the dash was a hog.

Besides we all know the Strongest Water Monster/Leviathan is Gobul (In part because being in the worst map).
>>
>>730611426
lance is alright damage. I farmed abyssal lagi pretty fine with it in 3U back in the day. the lance charge and a dash juice was basically all you needed to close the gap or do sustained damage against swimmers

I remember hunting Lagiacrus in the flooded forest area with a bow and it took basically the entire 50 minutes which me running back and forth to camp to eat after running out of potions and picking up every herb I could find while that fucker kept taking naps. I even ran out of the good arrow coatings and had basically no stamina left. I just about lost my sanity but it felt "peak" at the same time, the game was NOT holding my hand.

The areas they added from P3rd look really nice though

Gottem, only carted once this time. Think I'm going to try laying 2 big bombs per small bomb next time. Anyone got tips for the cephalodrone? I defintely want sonic bombs for him right because he's a burrower?
>>
>>730601717
It really didn't, these retards just haven't played the game in a decade and got fond memories for it all of a sudden. The underwater monsters all have 2 attacks and the only viable weapons are the lance and greatsword (feels like shit but the damage scaling is insane)

>>730602278
Have we ever gotten confirmation that this wasn't a feature?

The drop shadow over the map shadows look really bad. It could even be argued that 4 > 4G since the expansion made CB OP.

I timed out against the Duramboros using Long Sword and I wasn't even new to the series
Second attempt with Hunting Horn was successful when I learned only the end of his tail was a hitbox when he spins

why, because I can explain the concept of people being friends and having different schedules from each other? Or just being busy on some days? this is probably the dumbest

>>730613203
I also timed out to Duram. 4U hadn't trained me for anything like him. I hated that quest so much and it's probably impossible to solo (without minmaxing) unless you have high rank gear.

It's freaking incredible so far. I've been focusing on progress and the quest variety has been great. Gathering from a specific prey monster, getting gang raped by boars, velocipreys, collecting sand wyvern livers, stealing wyvern eggs, comfy forging quests etc. The difficulty has been really good, you constantly improve your execution and strategy as you play, farming my current weapon wasn't too bad, maybe an hour or two, and finding the right quest and route was fun. I still haven't touched fishing or messed with the nyangroes at all and only just now started combining to make useful stuff like large bombs. The maps are really cool and feel filled with secrets that I haven't even scratched the surface of. 10/10 game so far. Found a sword embedded in an altar in my backyard.

>>730613203
LS is probably the biggest beginner trap weapon in old gen. It looks powerful and easy to use but deals really shitty damage without the right build. I assume most people who start with LS came from GU onward where it got buffed into being meta even without the good builds.

What are the differences between Tri and 3U? I played Tri on my Wii last year and had a ball.
>>
>>730614740
3U has the rest of the weapons, G rank, a bunch of extra monsters and content, but also has nerfed the lighting mechanics and a few monsters have been toned down from Tri, also the western version is babby mode with extra invisible defense unless you mod it away
>>
>>730614740
3U has all the weapons that Tri removed like Gunlance, Dual Blades, Hunting Horn and Bow. it also has high rank and G-rank that isn't locked to the online functionality. it unfortunately also has baked in defenses which makes the early game easier, tweaked monster behavior that makes some monsters slower, and the worst charm table implementation ever put in any of these games. 2 of these are fixable with mods at least.
>>
I wish Brachydios weapons kept their slime attribute even if it functioned the same as blast, but still kept the slime visuals

3U has more monsters and weapons, but somewhat downgraded visuals and a simplified multiplayer hub

Of course, it's up to you whether you'd want the more in-depth multiplayer and better visuals with a tiny roster of 15 monsters or the simpler multiplayer and worse visuals but with a substantially larger roster of 30 monsters and far more weapon variety.
>>
>>730615073
My only issue was the charm table. I was already 50 hours in when I learned that. It took me a while to find the courage to check my own table. Luckily, I wasn’t on a cursed table but not the best one either.
>>
>>730615657
3U is the game I got my worst ever charm in. it was the highest rarity, honey +1 or 2 with no slots. I will never forget that piece of shit. I played the entire game with that cursed ass table, because I bought and played on release on non modded hardware.
>>
>>730615343
3U actually has 51 monsters total if you count all the subspecies. That’s triple the roster size of Tri.

fuck Gobul but with the popularization of invading monsters there's really no excuse for Peco to be absent from the series. while I like gigginox it really is just
>long poison Khezu
which isn't too inspiring. Khezu fills the early game lightning weapon niche too well to give it the boot in favor of giggi

>>730590389
>No gimmick bullshit

P3rd is still the best 3rd gen game purely because it had no underwater combat. Underwater was and always will be shit, no matter how much revisionists try and simp for it.

>>730614740
If you played them on release, Tri had a much better HR/multiplayer experience. If you emulate them now, that feeling is lost.
>>
>>730613007
This is perfection.
>>
>>730616771
qurupeco can specifically not work in modern monster hunter because multiple monsters on the field are now beneficial to the hunter thanks to epic mechanics like turf wars or the monster rodeo.
>>
>>730617282
eh turf wars only happen once though, so on the second call a beetlejuice showing up and bombing the arena on entry would be a way more fun variant of seeing Joe instant transmission into the room. they could also just make it so peco has no turf wars.

>>730591340

4 introduced mounting which killed the series.

reading this, lower res(and poly amount?) than wii and some who swear by p3rd that I have no idea how to play the third gen. 4u is synonymous. gu is synonymous. freedom unite is synonymous, I think.
>>
>>730617282
I kinda miss that ‘I’m fucked’ moment when two monsters showed up on the same map. Back when I was a noob, I didn’t know you could use dung bombs to drive them away so if a second mon appeared, I was just dead meat. I encountered that feeling again in 4U when apex mons could show up together on a GQ when that happened, the quest was officially over. And if it was online, everyone would immediately abandon the quest. Like, nah, fuck this shit.
>>
>>730617685
3U is the most content complete but like all MH games it has flaws. at least the defenses and charm tables have 3rd party workarounds now

just play Tri
if you like it enough and want more play 3U
and if you want a 3rd gen game with the design philosophy of the other psp games play p3rd
