Replaying 4U. I never noticed how many monsters in this game are perfect. Emerald Congalala? Perfect. Nerscylla? Perfect. Maybe this really was the peak.

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.
>>730591824What is this?
>>730593039>words words wordsIt's shit, Tribaby
>>730590389>No gimmick bullshitWasn't this the one with some bullshit charm system. God that gambling shit was the first major shit stain to grace this series.
>>730591824P3rd is king. 3U is baby first MHGU/4U are best modern monster huntersWorld/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.
>>730593304>if you like these games you don't like monster hunter, you just like the idea of playing monster hunter.I played World for over 1000 hours, never touched Rise and Wilds
>>730593479World doesn't play like a real monster hunter.
>>730593304Calling 3U 'baby’s first MH' when P3rd didn’t even have g rank is pretty contradictory.
>>7305936493U 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
>>730590560Loc Lac was destroyed by the Jhen Mohran. Not one soul survived.
>>730590962tbf both of these can be fixed by mods
>>730593993But no one's first experience with the game is modded like that, everyone's impressions of the game come with that extra defense built in and you have to go out of your way to play the game how it was actually intended.
>>730590757This, the wii u wasted so many games with potential
>>730590962I'm pretty sure the wiiu could take updates, why the fuck did they never fix the charm tables

Behold! my wife, the guild sweetheart...!
>>730593039>They went from being kind of clumsy on land to terrifyingly in the water and that put you at a disadvantage>aka monster isn't actually threatening or interesting unless the hunter is forced onto a massive disadvantageous stateWilds Lagiacrus is literally his peak and that combat doesn't even have underwater btw

>>730590389Tri > 3U3U is literally a flanderized demake of Triif you played them both you know that
>>730598813You can't even use whatever weapon you want at the start of tri though.
>>730590389Underwater combat is stupid fuck you
I'm wanting to play an old-school Monster Hunter game. I've already finished the 3rd and the FU on PSP.Which is better, the 4th 3D2 game or the Generations on Switch?
>>730599060Both are worth it and different enough to try
>>730598440Guild sweetheart.....isn't very sweet... She's kind of mean....
>>730599060If 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
>>730599060XX 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.
>>730598440All I remember about this character is that the bitch just won't shut up
>>7305990604U has the better plot and is paced pretty well unlike generations.
>>730599060GU is trash. 4U is okay.
>>730598908You can't use whatever weapon you want at the end either since several of them were removed entirely
>>730590389this and miiverse were only reason I had a WiiUfuck playing on a handheld
>>730590389>Uses a mixture of assets with different texture resolutions from 3DS/Wii>Dogshit framerate with horrendous framespikes>No jigglebones on models>Ceadeus fight
>>730599539>Plot>In MH gameNice joke
>>730599060>4U>GU>old-school Monster Hunterlol
Playing GU with the bros was the most comfy online experience I've ever had in monhun tbqhf
>>7305990604u 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. I didn't like Generations, but I do love Generations Ultimate, so play that
>>730599539i dont care any plot in mh bro
FU is the last pure monster hunter.
>>730593039retard
>>730593039>You couldn't just spam rollsyou can't spam rolls in monster hunter in general
>>730600375Playing 4u and GU with /mhg/ was some of the most fun I've ever had playing online. But playing with them with a full access to a keyboard and chat in World and FB was soulcrushing. So much mental illness
I miss MH bros...
>>730601137we all do
MH Legacy Collection when
>>730600701I can
>>730600553>felyne companions>pure
>>730601281Capcom would fuck it up somehow
>>730601281never, Monster Hunter is a live service game now (since World)letting people have access to the complete older versions of the games would be counter-productive, and I can guarantee Capcom would take World and Rise off of digital stores if they could do it with no backlash
>>730601513>Monster Hunter is a live service game now (since World)You fuckers are using words you don't know the meaning of
>>730601227 every time I boot up GU and hear that village music it hits me like a truck we’re never getting that soul back, are we bros?
>>730590389When did the reception to underwater combat change anyway? I remember playing when Tri came out and everyone hated it, now everyone wants it back. Is it people that didn't actually play Tri/3U wanting something that they didn't have the opportunity to try out?
>deign to take an interest in a beloved series>want to start with the first one>redditors always say it's shit and clunky and to just skip it>it's always total kino and the best one and all the one's after it are way shittierWhy 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.
>>730601717I 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. Inb4 you can get your stuff back at their den, I didn't know that the drunk guy didn't say that yet.
>>730590962Those things don't fully ruin the game but it's infuriating they never did anything about such a simple fuck up. Either way 4U was the peak.
>>730602019I think they're in every game but world and wilds?
>>730590389>90+ posts>nobody has said that you get fucked forever if the game give you the wrong charm tablethis board is newfag central lmao
>>730601606>real time limited events, quests, cosmetics, etc.>years-long update plans laid out for extra content and story>hundreds of dollars of mtx to keep the whales busyThe real question is why Capcom doesn't just make a Frontier 2 instead of ruining regular MH
>>730602278>Tourist doesn't realize people have been editing charms since Third Gen in its entirety
>>730602278>ctrl+f charm>6 results before this post
>>730602317>>730601513Tri 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.
>>730601717I 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
>>730590389I 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
>>730590389You'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.
>>730602591Tri did but 3U didn't, Loc Lac is not TanziaOn 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)
>>730602887>already on disc>but only limited when the servers were up!That's the definition of locking shit behind online
>>730590475/thread
>>730591340Mh peaked with 4U.
>>730602785I 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.
>>730602990the 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.
>>730603585Yeah, 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.
>>730603585the 3DS had DLC, hell the PSP could do DLC, capcom just finally relented in the business model of making people buy the same game twice once world hit. and don't try to >duhhh DLC too big durrrbecause people were downloading MHFU, P3rd, 3U and 4U digitally as well.
has there ever been a monhun gimmick that wasn't pure ass? underwater bullshit, rise with the tower defense bullshit, world with the godzilla canon then climbing its body bullshit, GU with the giant three headed squid that you have to use its body parts as ammo bullshit, wilds with the giant dragon with multiple stages bullshit
>>730604214World had mantles + clawGU had artsWilds has all the seikret bullshit
>>730604214I liked jhen, and I think he kind of counts as a gimmick. Otherwise probably no. You forgot to list 4U verticality+mounting, and the apex monsters. All ass as well.
>>730604330god 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.
>>730604214I 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
>>730604441verticality 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.
>>730601606MH has literally been turned into Crapcom's Destiny, you must be delusional and taken to the infirmery if you can't see it
>>730604214Palamutes and Wirebugs
>>730590389i really done like why they reduced the amount of Jaggi that spawn when you fight Great Jaggi in mh3u. it was alot of fun fighting him when you have like 8-9 retard jaggi dancing around you
3Us and 4Us roster is actually just assGU made all its new additions deviants so you don't even see them in regular progressionWorld is solid but suffers from clutch claw autism
>>730605578Holy based and true. The game was incredibly immersive when there was 15 of those little crackhead bastards skipping around taking bites at you. They were relentless. I got more of an "ecosystem" feeling from that one encounter than anything in world or wilds
>>730590475>Underwater is abysmal dogshitLegitimate skill issue.
>get a kegel workout doing a gather 2 wyvern eggs quest>the quest is no longer in any of the lists it seemscurious
>>730605578>i really done like why they i meant "i really dont like how they" im just retard and didnt proof read>>730605779>got more of an "ecosystem" feeling from that one encounter than anything in world or wildsyea the small monsters might as well not even exist when you're fighting big shit, they just aren't threating in anyway
>>730605578I swear my first great jaggi kill in tri must have taken more tries than fatalis in world lmao
>>730599060Play mh4u
>>730590389underwater is a downside
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. I mined it like 4 times and got 4 whetstones and just assumed it was a shitvein. Turns out not only do I need whetstones but also those are the veins you get malachite from desu.
>>730605632mh 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 solomonster hunter maps have also become trash by forcing it to all be one big map instead the maps being Multiple zonesI don't think any of the maps in mhw are either fun or good to look at for most part
>>730607019malachite's a general rare get from ore veins, it's much easier to get in volcanos which is where you can also get dragoniteas long as you're comfortable with your hunt times, weapon upgrades can be put off until you get further with access to more stuff
>>730607019Bear 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.
Bros I did it, I carted twice but now I'm a real hunter. What's the best way to farm this guy? Spam sonic bombs? Should I farm gunpowder and blow him to kingdom kum?
>>730608584keep 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 onI can't remember if sonic bombs stop working on Kut-Ku when he's enraged in 1st gen
>>730608584iirc 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.
>>730607108the multiplayer system in world really was something else
>>730601808you haven't even beaten kut ku, how would you know it's the best one and all the others are trash?
>>730609239base 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.
>>730610448>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.
>>730590475Underwater 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.
>>730610825>I hated having to interact with people and fight things I myself didn't need to help othersselfish homo
>>730610914If your lil clique still cared about lobbies you wouldnt care about sos being a thing, faggot.
>>730611036oh 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
>>730610825lmao faggot
>>730610836Doesn’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.
>>730611137lots of projection for someone who is assmad about something that supposedly has no effect on their lives
>>730611472I 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
>>730590389I liked MH4U more
>>730611426It'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).
>>730611426lance 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
>>730590389>Wii u game
>>730590389>underwater combat>no gimmick bullshitpick one, niglet
>>730590389>game is actually challengingI 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.
>>730611753no need to vent your anger on me anon. sounds like you just have shit friends lmao
>>730590475Underwater is soulful and really works after you acclimate to it.
>>730612287*with*restShitty phone keyboard
>>730612336yet another amazing example of you misunderstanding how friends work. before I could pass it off as you shitposting but now I'm convinced you really do not have a community of your own, and that just makes me sad.
>>730591024Yeah it's missing all of the bloom and vibrancy that gave the areas half their depth. The areas they added from P3rd look really nice though
>>730611426I don’t know about 3U but in Tri Lance was easily one of the best weapons
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?
>>730601717It 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)
>>730602278Have we ever gotten confirmation that this wasn't a feature?>>730612525The drop shadow over the map shadows look really bad. It could even be argued that 4 > 4G since the expansion made CB OP.
>>730612502from your own words, neither do you it seems.
>>730612693As many as you can muster + craft more of them on the hunt.
>>730610825kys
>>730590389Best comfy hub?
>>730612693Is 1st gen actually enjoyable solo? I always heard people hated it even since launch outside of online multiplayer.
>>730612624I never played Tri, but I heard something about a counter meta with lance that got nerfed in 3U.
>>730612287I timed out against the Duramboros using Long Sword and I wasn't even new to the seriesSecond attempt with Hunting Horn was successful when I learned only the end of his tail was a hitbox when he spinsgood times
>>730612914why, 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>no uever posted on this webzone
>>730613203I 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.
>at velkhana>still need a bunch of the tickets for layered armor>the last 20 or so multiplayer hunts over the last couple of days all failed because random retards keep carting in the first area>screw it, I'll do it solo>no carts, 5 min still on the clockhow can people be so absolute shit at the game at MR 150+ and with full fatty gear?
>>730613061It'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.
>>730613203LS 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.
>>730613526fuck off we're talking about good games ITT

What are the differences between Tri and 3U? I played Tri on my Wii last year and had a ball.
>>7306147403U 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
>>7306147403U 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
>>7306147403U 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.
>>730615073My 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.
>>7306156573U 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.
>>7306153433U actually has 51 monsters total if you count all the subspecies. That’s triple the roster size of Tri.

>>730598440>>730599276My beloved.Gobul, Qurupeco and Gigginox's return when?
>>730616307In the wilds expansion where we get a seaside map with tidal/water level mechanics
>>730616307fuck 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 Khezuwhich 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>UnderwaterP3rd 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.>>730590475FPBP
>>730614740If you played them on release, Tri had a much better HR/multiplayer experience. If you emulate them now, that feeling is lost.
>>730613007This is perfection.
>>730616771qurupeco 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.
>>730617282eh 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>Maybe this really was the peak.4 introduced mounting which killed the series.
>Lagiacrus gets low and flees>spend 5 minutes slogging through the waterVery tiresome.
>>730590962reading 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.
>>730617282I 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.
>>7306176853U 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
>>730590389I refuse to change your mind
>>730617753Turf wars were a mistake.
>>730617685just play Triif you like it enough and want more play 3Uand if you want a 3rd gen game with the design philosophy of the other psp games play p3rd
