what does /v/ thinks about mh4u???
it's a big game
>>7444610694u
i think monhun went to shit the moment capcom turned to nintendo
>>744460928It's the best in the series (or maybe XX, but I haven't played it)highly highly recommend it
>>744460928My favorite MH game.I wish they hadn't changed charge blade so much after this. Sure you can tweak the KO values and buff elemental phials and all that but the actual moveset and how you used it was so much better than what they do with it now. You really had a reason to use every part of the weapon, sword+shield until the monster toppled and then axe mode combos for big cash-out damage, shield thrust spam for fast status application, letting the SAED rip for a big wakeup hit or a final killing blow when you know the monster's about to die. It was great. Now you just build for either SAED spam or savage axe mode and never engage with most of the weapon moveset at all.
>>744461398>xx is the best(i havent played it)
>>744461742why you twist my words, nigger?>>OR MAYBE XX, but I haven't played it
>>744460928Its the best of the made for 3ds games (3U doesnt count), aesthetics are great, maps are good enough, not enough new monsters but the new ones are really cool, mantling was a good idea that was executed pretty bad, the french plague online was real and it was horrible. CB was at its best here and IG should of just been a spear with out the bug mechanic. Overall 9/10.
>>744461398Yes, it is the best game in the series. I have played XX/GU and it's not better (though still light years ahead of world/rise/wilds).
I dunno playing it was too painful on my massive hands and fingers.
>>744460928The worst maps in the franchise. Don't let sceenshots on /v/ fool you. They may look good in upscaled screenshots but a fucking pain to actually play in.Also le verticality is the somehow the most obtrusive and the least impactful gimmick of all mh games.Rest is pretty good. Best story, pacing, npcs and some really good fights.
>>744463818maybe use citra with texture mods and play with a controller???
>>744460928It's not all that great.I had more fun with Generations on 3DS than 4U.
>>744460928>good original monsters>roster full of gen 2 shit like the dromes>awful maps>apex is a shit endgame mechanic>cool relic grind
>>744460928>Removed swimming Worst entry in the entire series T. Dr. Baron von Gigachad Maximius Rex
When are they going to port this shit?I'm not getting a fucking 3DS.I tried looking up DS' the other day and now I see that even the completely regular DS, not even the 3DS, is going for super expensive prices.
>>744464101Only map I remember being genuinely awful about verticality is the first one, and even then it's only a few zones that really massively overdo it (the cliff side where you fight Gore was particularly silly)They obviously emphasize cliffs but that's kind of the game's gimmick, and it does occasionally make layouts genuinely more interesting. I'd say the hate is overblown, but I get if you'd rather just have more open spaces.
>>7444654054U's volcano map is literally the worst map in the entire franchise
its the last truly good monster hunter>>744465206never because it would compete with wilds or whatever the newest slop game is. enjoy your permanently raped franchise
>>744460928Tried emulating it and the first zone gave me eye cancer.
>>744465784Wilds is one of the biggest blunders in the series history.Wilds wasn't even in the top 10 for the latest sales report in spite of being the fastest selling Capcom game launch in their history.Monster Hunter World was the only MH game in the top 10 for their last quarter. Wilds was even getting outsold by Resident Evil 6, a 14 year old game, which took the 10th spot.
>>744460928Best or second best MH alongside 3U. 3U's base design with 4U's weapon moveset would be the ultimate MH game
Its good but I think the mounting system in it kinda sucks cause if you're playing multiplayer this means you and a group has to stare at a monster being mounted multiple times like some kind of monster cuckold fetish
>tfw no mh4u on vita
>>744460928it's the only monster hunter that I stuck with for more than 30 minutes and it's probably the only monhun I'll ever play.
>>744466498That's crazy because the intro of 4U sucks
>>744466159>Give world fans more world>They hate it >"Too much emphasis on story cutscenes, too railroaded, too easy, too streamlined!!"Ironic
>>744467240World still has actual maps. They could and should obviously have iterated on the style of map designs for the next game.Instead Capcom immediately went full retard, threw it all out the window and went open world meme.Pulled a classic Square Enix with Wilds. It really does feel like a game from SE in many ways.
I miss Monster Hunter
G Legacy Collection when
>>744460928Why the multiple mh threads?
>>744467412It wasn't even open world though..you can technically walk between 3 out of the 5 zones (plains, Forest, basin) without a loading screen but there's no point to do so.You can also walk between the remaining 2 zones, (cliffs, wyveria) but the game doesn't even make you do it during the story and the path is so obscure I would guess less than 1% of players ever did it once.
>>744460928The best MH game.
>>744466771despite that I have 95 hours in 4u. while world, rise and 3u remain dropped.
>>744467770never as long as Ryozo is still in charge of the series.
>>744465485Nah that fucking forest in world is THE worst fucking map in all of MH and is not even close.
>>744460928The last real good MH even if it has some low valleys, offset by the peaks of peaks. If only we knew how good we had it. GU, world and frontier did irreparable damage to the series
>>744467853>Advertise the game as a fully seemless world>Have to hop on a retarded bird to traverse 90% of it>Maps are to big to actually walk through them>Game teleports you everywhere anywaysDon't worry though, they got tiny little lizards walking laps around the world taking up multiple of your CPU threads each.
>>744460928Mounting and verticality ruined the franchise long before World and Wilds existed, but /v/ likes to feign ignorance.
>>744460928My first MH, 2 years ago. good times.I seetheposted about brachy and failed the mission like 8 times.I hate how ridiculous gold rathian is and that I couldn't beat gog because of the hp bloat.
4U had the best endgame grind in the series with relic armor/weapons, even the grind to get your ideal monster combo that gave the weapon/armor designs you wanted was kind of fun. my favorite GQ was an apex tigrex/apex jho combo, good times.
>>744468306>map that is large and diverse >feels extremely dense and alive>multiple pathways to everywhere>lots of secret spots>the few slopes in it are completely tolerable unlike the giant climbable walls in the volcano map in 4uLmao no. >inb4 it's confusingskill issue.
Has anyone ever made a mod to fix the camera?
I can give it a try, but I don't know if I'll succeed. Creating a mod to fix the camera is a complicated matter.
What's wrong with the camera
>>744470798For some reason the turning speed has to accelerate slower than a freight train and even when it's at full speed it's still comically slow.
>>744460928I remember enjoying itI also remember being stuck on "The Caravaneer's Challenge"Rajang seems to be my eternal wall
>>744464101The worst map is still that one in Gen 1 or 2 where the playable area is only like 30 square feet and the land you can see as walkable space that looks exactly the same is like 150 square feet, so you're constantly accidentally walking into the loading screen or waiting for the monsters to walk back to the actual map area where you can hit them. No amount of Gravios on a hill will ever be as infuriating as that.
>>744466382It's really interesting that no Monster Hunter was probably the biggest factor in dooming the Vita over in Japan
>>744467240low iq post
>>744463596je suis monte!
>>744460928would be the undisputed best game in the whole franchise if it used 3rd gen maps instead of the dogshit 4th gen ones
>>744460928In terms of overall experience it's one of the best MH games. Really fun storyline jumping from village to village, amazing music, really cool new monsters (except najarala/tidal)The disgusting maps really hurt the game, since they started the trend of uneven surfaces and ledge spam to accommodate mounting which is also a horrible and gay feature. A few weapons blatantly outperforming, mainly GS and IG, also hurt it overall. I'm neutral on the endgame.I think I prefer both Frontier and GU over it in terms of the complete gameplay package but 4U definitely still has a place in my heart since it still feels like a good, cohesive experience and is the last game where you actually still have to clown suit to get that earplugs set that you want.
>>744460928honest question. Is 4U your favourite MH and if so is your most used weapon either CB or IG?
>>744474492>mh>storylineevery mh story is just "some nigga is mad with aids pls stop him before he keeps infecting other niggas"
>>744474728There's plenty of other stuff going on in 4U but let's not pretend a rampaging monster or some invincible death monster *shouldn't* be the main driving plot thread for a Phantasy Star Online clone
>>744474728True, but MH4U is much more interesting with you exploring the world and visiting the different hubs. You're introduced to the ace squad, the caravaneer is a real nigga, the blacksmithing town is cool, cathar is beautiful, etc.It's all just good fun in terms of presentation and when you get to dundorma you really feel like you're moving up in the world.Contrast that to MHGU where you just visit every recycled village from the start of the game and go through their checklist of requests.
>>744474652>Is 4U your favourite MH?It used to be, but now it's XX. It might be Sunbreak if it had better visuals, but it looks too strange for me. >and if so is your most used weapon either CB or IG?My most used weapons are always GS, CB and IG in that order. I'll try everything else in every game too, but never really stick with them for more than 50 hunts at best. Except the one time I played 3U exclusively as Lance and LBG, and I'm sure you can guess why.
>>744460928It feels like the only people I still see grinding 140s to this day are deranged GS mains
>>744474728If you ignore all the characters, plotlines and world building. >bro listen, The Odyssey is just some guy wanting to go home badly bro, like just chill it's not a real story
>>744474928>>744474829I agree, I really liked mh4u, but story was really really weak, just like in every mhI don't care since I only want good gameplay and comfy places, I never expect good characters or story
>>744460928I like it better than MHGU and I'm not going to apologize for it
>>744467770never because they wouldn't be able to charge $70 and shove 200 cosmetic DLCs in ithopefully the series dies with wilds so they actually have a reason to re-release the old games
>>744474928You do all of that in wilds.
>>744461128looool
>>744475363They do fighting game collections all the time. This is because Ryozo is autistic and genuinely seems to believe every new game is so much better than the last no one would ever want to go back
More like 4poo because the game is SHIT! no really, mounting was the worst thing ever added to MH.
>>744474949Sunbreak looks too weird for you but XX with its lazily slapped in maps with fuck ugly broken shaders and lighting doesn't?
>>744466159it's always great to see the hot industry cope with each flop that gets released. They'll promote literally anything BUT actual sales.>fastest selling Capcom game>actualmeasuredtimewas3daystermsandconditionsmayapply
>>744460928Best MH, I only dislike the frenzy stones or whatever they were called. Without them it'd be perfect.
>>744467770I imagine they're afraid a collection will eat away at the sales of whatever new garbage they release next. After Wilds I really don't have much hope for whatever they follow it up with.
Really enjoyed it, a really dense game for 3DS. Actually really liked the story in it too, the caravan made me want to push further. I kinda missed that in MH Generations.I never managed to solo Dalamadur, I don't remember exactly which quest it was but man that sucked, maybe I should try again sometime.Guildmarm a cute but she only loves monsters :(
>>744475484Yeah. XX is sometimes oversaturated because it uses 4U stuff directly, but Sunbreak has the bad kind of washed out tone most of the time (unless it's a night map). It's hard to explain, they give off very different feelings in terms of purely visuals and worldbuilding stuff, like compare Yukumo to Kamura. Yukumo is distinctly a colourful monster hunter village and would look out of place in most games while Kamura could be a Toukiden hub or something, even though both games have the same base components there's a slight difference if that makes sense. I don't really dislike it or anything though.
>>744467770never, can't have a 3ds game have more players than wilds on steam
>>744476060To me Riesbreak is by far the worst MH visually. It gives off a strange fortnite like vibe.
>>744460928None of the 3DS Monster Hunters are worth shit because it is impossible to make a good action game that you're meant to play on a handheld with 1 analog stick.
>>744476337You say that, but FU is the best game ever made
>>744475419>You do all of that in wilds.
>>744476060I would just play p3rd instead of xx if you like yukumo because you'll get the felyne farm and gathering hub as well , instead of the aforementioned lazily slapped in version
>>744476390FU is a sacred cow around here. Both 3U and 4U are better games.
>>744460928what a great fucking game. this is the only mh game i would buy again but crapcom wont ever release a pc port of it for whatever reason
>>744475484If I had played Rise on an emulator instead of the PC port I would assume the emulator was broken because of how it looks.
>>744476060Kamura went a bit overboard with the whole cherry blossom pagoda kabuki shit in the gathering hub but as an MH village it's not bad. The roofs are made of scales (not tiles) they have cool wyvern-repellent smokestacks, the forest where palicos train is also really charming... Player house is also cozy
>>744460928It's trash, just like ever other MH game that isn't Rise.
How are Risefags always the most annoying?
>>744476183I can see that, I suppose. Personally I still think World has the most boring locations though, at least wilds had some unique stuff going on like the flooded forest actually flooding and the lightning sandstorms.>>744476470That's just a comparison because they're both the Japanese themed areas, I still love Sunbreak's other qualities and monster designs.
>>744460928Last good MH game, everything after is utter dogshit
>>744460928I wish they would remake it but at the same time i dont
>>744460928Thank you mh4u for raping this beloved franchise
>>744475484Gu map are miles better than any map from 4u4u has shit tons of annoying ledges and slopes
>>744476880They did. Mh wilds was the same shit as 4u.>Yellow plains area>Red and green jungle>Mountains with floating rocks>Giant lava caveIt's just missing a frozen ocean. Aside from that the plot is about travelling around to different villages in a caravan. You have lil miss forge. The ace hunters. Gore magala, nerscylla...
>>744477045GU literally adds annoying ledges and slopes to gen 1, 2, and 3 maps. On top of breaking their textures and lighting. God you're dumb.
>>744468436>sheathing mid fight>turning your back to the enemy>running in circles to position yourself Will MHfags ever realize that that just feels and looks retarded? MH just doesn't have satisfying gameplay. Using the weapons is fun, but everything else, most of all moving your character, feels like fucking garbage.
>>744477290Name a game with better melee combat
>>744461738I couldn't have said it better myself
>>744474492Do you retards really want every map to be a flat circle?
>>744477470Not necessarily. Every map being a featureless flat circle is a gross oversimplification of what would be preferable, since I do want maps with some variety in shapes and sizes and some small features. The real dealbreaker for me is ledges of ANY kind, just fucking remove them entirely. Most of the maps in Frontier had really solid and wide fighting areas and is a huge part of the reason why I like it more than 4U and GU.I can say with full confidence that if I had to choose between gen 4+ maps and a flat circle then I choose the latter every single time without fail because it does not actively get in the way of the hunt and I can take the maps being a bit more boring in return for that.
>>744477772>no>but actually yes
>>744477926didn't even bother to make an effort to read the post award
it was a better timenone of the games since hit as hard
>>744477470nta but yeah. 4u's "vertical" map design did not think player and monster interactions with ledges and slopes through, so its 70% weird jank shit that makes no sense and 30% dying to something that wouldnt have happened if anyone at capcom ever playtested their fucking games
>>744463596>the french plague online was real and it was horrible.Nah it was based. I miss it.
Why did they remove kinsect aiming in mhgu? Glaive worked perfectly in mh4u, and it plays like ass in mhgu.
>>744460928It's the best monster hunter we'll ever get.
great game but made irrelevant by GU
>>744476742>World has the most boring locations thoughI would agree if the coral highlands and rotten vale didn't exist. I like those visually at least.
>>744466382>>744473787Blame sony's ego>muh cartoon kiddie shit we dont want or needGlad it fucked them over
>>744465206It's never getting ported because Capcom doesn't want new players to compare classic monhun to worldslop. A New3DSXL will never be as cheap as today.
>>744478438This is incorrect since 4U is objectively better.
>>744478505Off the top of my head it was moreso Vita was already strong enough to mandate a graphical bump-up and MonHun Team wasn't ready quite yet to start graphics whoring like they did in World and Wilds
>>744468436I told yiu fags on release generations would kill this IP.None of you listened and jerked it off blindlyEat your shit fag aids sandwich like good cucks.
>>744478634GU has all of the weapons, gear and monsters of 4u and a shit ton more, so I have no idea what is so "better" about it.>muh storyliterally who gives a fuck
>>744477290If you were fighting a creature the size of a small house, you actually would have to pick up your shit, turn around, and run to maneuver around it.
>>744478445They have the problem of all the cool looking areas being in places you almost never see, like the top half of Rotten Vale is exclusively Radobaan Kart track and instead you always play in the boring underground Dark Souls 3 areas. Also I still think they're just okay compared to the older games personally.
>>744478742Ok but does GU have loli Gemma?
>>744478916yes
>>744478706I played og Gen, didn't like it muchWilds is so bad that I've been considering emulating GU and giving it another chanceShould I?
>>744461738Erm, what about AED guard point counters? The defining feature of the weapon?
>>744478706>I was trans in 2016 already!Stunning and brave xister
>>744478916You can even make her your housekeeper.
>>744478979GU is great right up until the G rank lao shan lung quest where the english version has like 60,000 hp instead of the japanese version's 20,000 because some corporate fucko wanted to pressure players to sub to the switch's online. So you gotta prepare a super niche set for gathering stuff and shooting it with cannons and ballistae or go insane trying to kill it with your weapon. But that's like 400 hours in or whatever.
>>744469972Eat a dick worldfetus
>>744479265>So you gotta prepare a super niche set for gathering stuff and shooting it with cannons and ballistae or go insane trying to kill it with your weapon.or you can shell with a gunlance
>>744478979Valor makes it quite fun and some of the deviants are more fun with their G movesets like Silverwind NargaI personally loved GU but I don't think I would have liked just base gen since it would have felt way too similar to 4U
>>744478847>muh realismDon't care.
>>744479002Yeah that's the "sword+shield until the monster toppled" part.
>>744479849It's a 3d game. Unless you want the hunters to teleport what alternative are you suggesting for them to get around the giant monster's body
>>744481786Wave dashing.
>>744460928Bad for the same reasons World and Wilds are bad. It's even a pain to look at much like Wilds is.Not the best 4th gen game either since GU puts 4U to shame for having camera speed options and a button to remove all decos from the item box. The remove all deco option was unsurprisingly also missing from World at launch. Because Tokuda likes to pretend the Portable series doesn't exist which means they don't carry over fixes until someone else makes the G rank and adds in actual QoL.The less games like 4u, full of padding and forced cinematics, the better the MH series becomes.
>>744482436Unironically yes. Give me Adept evade back and stop making my hunter do the "oopsie daisy let me jog around the thigh hitbox" animation for 6 seconds.
>>744476390FU is a defunct game, there's no reason to play it when 4U/GU exist
>>744483820FU is the original GU since it has every map and monster from all of gen 1&2
>>744460928I would honestly rather a 4U port to Steam than buy Wilds.
>>744477121Yea but the gameplay has never been more casualized. I should've said remastered instead with updated graphics and controls that dont cramp up my hands
>>744484701doesn't matter, everything you could want out of FU is present in 4U/GU and just as good, if not better. It's a waste of time to play FU
>>744485232What if I want to use the pokke village farm and gathering hub or visit all the gen 1 maps
>>744485232Yama Tsukami is cool enough to warrant playing FU for
>>744485586>pokke villagein GU>visit all the gen 1 mapswhy would you want to do that?
>>744485664The farm and gathering hub aren't in GU, for any of the returning villages.Most of the maps from gen 1, 2, 3, and 4 aren't in GU either since it only includes 2-3 maps per gen, the original games having anywhere from 5-7.
>>744485232FU is a very pure classic monhun experience and people should absolutely play it. It has some interesting progression options considering nekoht quests and has some of the most memorable challenge hunts like Eulogy for a Lone Wolf, One-horned Demon King and the multi-map elder dragon hunts.
>>744486496>multi-map elder dragon huntsThis was pure cancer>Need Teo parts>Flat out impossible to kill in 1 quest before it runs away unless you play like a god or you pick the super powered event quest version that hits even harder
>>744461069>>744461128/thread
>>744460928Love the game, and it has a lot of good things to it, the new weapons and monsters, the characters and even the Palicos.But man, if it also doesn't have a lot of shit that drags its quality down a whole fucking lot:>the fucking ledges everywhere>the Hollows, especially Volcanic>all the fucking gen 1 and 2 monsters infesting the roster>Apexes and Wystones>Relic grindAnd more, seriously, I love this game, and enjoyed it a fuck ton when it came out, but man, can it be rough to get back on it.
>>744479265huh, so that's why it was SO fucking hard to move from G3 playing solo
>>744479265wait whatholy fucki did that shit solo and tried for so long to kill it fucking niggers man whati had to go through all that pain because of that?manstill glad i beat it though
>>744487587>all the fucking gen 1 and 2 monsters infesting the rosterI believe that one day we'll once again finally be free of this plague, that there can be a MH that isn't 75% Gen 1 and 2 references or reruns.
>>744467240World have like 2 cutscene in the entire game that exceed the 1 minute mark. You actually HAVE to interact with every element in the game. Setting up camps, upgrading the farms, putting on the thief cloack for gold is actually useful and make sense in the gameplay economy. In Wilds everything feels like bloat.
>>744460928good game but I really dislike the endgame systems and volcano map. wystones and the expedition maps are dogshit, imagine needing to sharpen your fuckin bowgun.
>>744488227Now you know how the rest of us felt when we went from 4U to World. Of course you couldn't express that at all without being called a bingshitter so here we are
>>744460928it was cool, too bad most of the weapons are cucked massively by big dick gs, ig and cb
>>744488738GS is always the extremely overpowered easy mode weapon so that's nothing new, but CB was mostly tied with DB + HBG iirc and IG was just so high because mounting was fucked up. In any case caring about weapon tier lists is stupid when outside of ranged weapons which are not playing the same game the difference is like 15-20% at best and the enemy is only ever scaled for 2-3 players to begin with.
>>744467770Imagine the look on their faces if there was more players on a legacy collection than the latest title.
>>744477470>>744477772>>744478206As someone who barely played anything but World, how the fuck have you played DB on flat maps for almost two decades? Feels like the most boring shit imaginable, meanwhile when there's slopes and climable walls it's super fun.
>100+ post thread>ctrl +F Wystones>only 2 resultsdamn, monster hunta threads are really newfag central lmfao
mounting sucks dick verticality eats shit all above me who said the same are kings yet they're still gorillitupleing down on mounting to this day...
>>744468436Frontier was fine as its own thing, and I thought GU was fine as its own thing as well despite not liking it, then it all bled onto the next games
>>744489325Wystones fucking suck
>>744488227World casualilized and added tons of cutscenes,Wilds did the same thingWorldbabs get what they deserve
>>744489325They're only really relevant for the uber endgame grinds like 100+ hours in and few endgame quests, hardly a reason to dislike the game overall I'd say.
>>744489310Imagine DB having a strong and fun toolkit without luring monsters to stupid ledges and slopesPlease for the love of god play Frontier on a private server and see what you've been missing out on
>>744460928beginning of the end
>>744477772There's nothing wrong with ledges and verticality, the series needs a proper manual jump button already.
>>744489674>strong and fun toolkitYou have exactly one good attack that you spam over and over again with no good gap closers in demon mode until they added the ability to beyblade on demand in GU
>>744489325people who hate wystones are shitters, simple as
>>744460928the insect glaive definitely seemed like the best most versatile weapon class in that game but i remember most of the other weapons being very playable except either the lance or gunlance and switch axe, i dont think when you got maxed out gear from higher level online quests that those weapons scaled up well enough. you had to really know what you were doing to use bowguns too so they seemed impractical, the right person against the right monsters would be pretty nice with those though. i used every weapon type a lot besides bows, lances, and long swords. it was a pretty interesting creative choice that the highest level monster in the game wasnt some giant snake boss or 1 trillion pound sand worm. but i think making a whole unique fight that over 90% of players would never make it to seems like it makes sense they didnt do that.
>>744489962except none of that is the case in frontierhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1w9VjVx6uGAyou have repositioning attacks, far-reaching aerial moves, and more difficult buff upkeep (health drain demon mode + sharpen combo buff), which are made easier with vampirism and DB specific sigils.people have been playing "boring" DB and SNS in old generations forever anyway
>>744491495In Frontier sure but every single weapon there got its moveset massively reworked with extreme styleIf you look at 2nd gen which is the splitting point for mainline and Frontier, DB is clunky and slow as shit there contrary with animation locks on its attacks far longer than SnS despite looking similarly small as a weapon
>>744492130I'm not an expert in DB in previous gens, I refuse to play anything that requires mega dash juice farming as a baseline to actually play the weapon. But from my understanding DB's identity was a fast hitting weapon that required more positional mastery than sns due to its stronger attacks being so long. In world and rise it was just a generic zip everywhere, iframe everything weapon (especially egregious in rise due to silkbinds)and I specifically brought up frontier in my reply because it's a good example of DB being tough to master and fun in a game that doesn't have ledges and mounting.
>>744492342world and rise gameplay is very different. so how about you don't throw both of them together and not just you, all the tendies
>>744467240This lmao. Worldsperms and riceshitters only have themselves to blame for wilds.
>>744484885I'm feeling Sylvie would be the type of person to cheese Gravios in FU with a LBG.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJ-moII8oo4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N84DiEVelyYIs it just me or does Wilds feel like even more of a parry fes than even Frontier Z
Why hasn't anyone made a porn parody game of this series called Monster Humper?
>>744460928It could be the GOAT if the endgame wasn't so shit.Also, I still can't fandom all the content they cramped into a handheld game, I mean, my last handheld before 3ds was a Gameboy Advance, but still.
Base game>PS3 graphics>Retarded interface>Every low rank monster dies in 2 hits>Every low rank monster deals 0 damage>Unskippable walking segments>Infinite restocking so it's impossible to die>Power Clash is literally just a 3 sec cutscene that wastes your time and doesn't do anything>No cat cooking>Weather system serves no purpose other than to make the game worse>Like 95% of set bonuses are useless>The "endgame" consists of hunting the same apexes because, for whatever reason, Capcom refuses to make every monster 9star tempered>9 star tempered monsters oneshot you and have more HP than Fatalis so G rank will feel like a cake walk>The "reward" for killing 9stars is gacha talismans that give you skills (even though we already have too many skills)>No HR final boss>Artian system makes 99% of weapons in the game useless (lmao)>Collaboration is not even a monster but some generic colorless robot>You can use NPC hunters on monsters but them carting doesn't count so it's literally just cheating>Underwater combat>Less monsters than MH2 and 4 in base game>No MH language>First flop in franchise's historyIs this the worst game of all time?G rank>Created by the director of Exoprimal (game no one ever played)>Gimmick that makes your weapon useless unless you use it>Nothing about the game is fixed>Overuse of Elder DragonsIt's over
>>744494424bestiality a shit
>>744495287>get mad if elders aren't in HR>get mad if elders are in HR
>>744494390No, MHFZ absolutely is still way worse. A staple armor skill for GS being Combat Supremacy, which effectively makes your stamina bar unusable, is telling enough
>>744495371The problem was that the game had 0 Elders period (first in franchise history). But in G rank announcement they said>GUYS WE WILL ADD 100 TRILLION ELDERS BECAUSE YOU GOT SO UPSETThere needs to be a balance
Fun game, but my least favorite "end game" alongside MHW/IB. Pick which 3 grinding activities you want! we've got procedurally generated content so it's TECHNICALLY endless too! Yippeee!Once you're done with G rank you can really just put the game down. Console team has never managed to make an end game worthwhile.
>>744495483G rank is the endgame to be fair. MH4U (4 in japan) was the first one to try and tackle giving players something that could truly be considered an endgame by current standards. Usually you'd just get some bonus event quests. It's understandable why they fumbled the first attempt
>>744474728Its a game about hunting monsters, they tried adding more "story" with wilds and its fucking awful. I hate loreniggers so goddamn much.
>>744495318Monster girls, my dude.
>>744495464Game didn't need Elders in the base game, there was no point to them because the story was taking place in a new land that already had two super-monsters in it, one of them being an Elder in every way but name.
>>744495541Yeah, I'll give you that one. G rank is the bread and butter of the series. I'm just tired of all the gimmicks that we don't need when nothing was really broke to begin with.
>>744495287Keep fighting the good fight anon. Fuck wilds, fuck world, fuck rise
>>744495464I much prefer them using elders to earmark G-rank personally, gives dragons the "thematic weight" of appearing when shit's going down. Even if it means I won't get Shagaru Magala's superior HR set compared to its G-rank set
>>744495464>The problem was that the game had 0 Elders period (first in franchise history)How can one man be so confidently wrong not once but twice in a single sentence
>>744495845That statement is objectively true though
>>744495918So Gogmazios is not an elder dragon now?
>>744495948RetardGOD, Gogmazios got added 1 year after the game released.
>>744495948He was DLC.
>>744495967>>744495973So we already have G-Rank and nobody noticed?
>>744495698>I much prefer them using elders to earmark G-rankI prefer them not removing integral part of this 25 year old franchise. Elders have been in every game and they should continue being in them
>>744496070How many Elder Dragons did MH1 have?
>>744496008Gog isn't even the hardest content in Wilds as of now.
>>744496150More than 0 (the amount of Elders in WIlds on release), which is the point
>>744496150Kirin, Lao Shan Lung, and Fatalis
>>744489928eh ledges eating your rolls always felt pretty bad but generally the climbing wasn't ever as bad as 2nd gen's jungle ladder at the start, or the MH1 forest climbing room.
>>744495371>>744495464The "apex" monsters were the elder equivalents. The fat fuck fish, the icicle dragon, the fire octopus, and rey dau. Alongside arkveld and gore.>Most threatening monsters in the game>Cause weather/natural disastersThey just wanted an excuse to use different designs for once you spergoids
>>744496070It's fine for Elders to temporarily sit out a game that wanted to focus on something else.
>>744460928Playing this again on my 3DS and I am shocked at how good it is. Feels like playing a better version of World. I played through 4U at release, with my friends, all the way to the end. But it is better than I rembmer.
>>744496225Nope. Change is bad. Tradition is god. Never, EVER, do anything different.
>>744496225I don't give a fuck about "equivalents". The game should have Elders on release or it's not MH
>>744496268This but unironically, most of the changes the MH team pushes have sucked assWhy can't we just have FU with a GU sized roster
>>744496185Release doesn't fucking matter, in case you haven't noticed the games have shifted to seasonal updates ever since World.Wilds has Gog, Gore and Jin Dahaad and Zoh Shia are elders in anything but name, bitching and moaning about every little thing, and playing semantics while lying about previous games is why people can't fucking stand you.Nobody misses using your left stick to attack, nobody misses constant screen transitions, nobody misses humongous inventory clutter with shit like books of combos, and if you really wanna bitch about games that take out things from previous games then Tri is right there.
>>744496407What part of EVERY SINGLE MONSTER HUNTER GAME SHOULD HAVE ELDER DRAGONS AT LAUNCH BECAUSE IT'S FRANCHISE TRADITION is so hard for you to understand?
>>744496407>Release doesn't fucking matterIf it doesn't matter why did every single game in the franchise include Elders on release until Wilds? Maybe because Elders are an integral part of the franchise and removing them is removing soul from the game?
>>744496306I pray to God for another soft reboot like MH tri. The only returning mons there were rathalos, rathian, and diablos. Everything else was new. Made the MH world actually feel fresh and big instead of the same mascots recycled ad infinitum.In fact, I would want them to ditch those 3, too.
>>744496495Having a farm you could run around in was a franchise tradition until it wasn't anymore.Having disposable whetstones or pickaxe was a franchise tradition until it wasn't anymore.Having screen transitions and instanced maps was a franchise tradition until it wasn't anymore.Having raptor shitmons was a franchise tradition until it wasn't anymore.What you want is stagnation, not tradition, and it's not even consistent with the series' history.>>744496502But they didn't remove anything, base Wilds still has Elders, might as well say that Rise was not MH because it didn't have a proper final boss either at launch until a later update.Development has changed for better or worse.
>>744496698>base Wilds still has EldersCan you name Elders in Wilds on release?
>>744496698Notice how every game that stopped having those things have been complete shit.
>>744473885We don’t sign our posts here.
>>744496715Zoh Shia.
>>744496715Jin Dahaad and Zoh Shia.>b...butThey're functionally elders, you can cope and seethe
>>744496884I understand this might be upsetting but I have to tell you that, according to Capcom, Zoh Shia is not an Elder but instead a Construct
>>744496923Gore Magala was listed as "???" in typing on introduction in 4/U
>>744460928Monster Hunter peaked here.
>>744496950And your point is?
>>744479265I knew it wasn’t a COHENCIDENCE that jewtendo suddenly made you have to start paying for online right before GU released.
>>744496923Tiggy and Narga used to be called Pseudo Wyverns in oldgen until they got reclassified as flying wyvern (despite being unable to actually fly) for...reasons.Crapcom's writing has always been all over the place.
>>744496987That the Construct typing means shit-all for a boss that characters make multiple verbal comparisons to Fatalis on
Have a lot of fond memories of the hunter hubs. Maybe I hunted with some of you fags. Good times.
>>744495287You call this a fucking flop?You and I fucking wish this garbage fucking flopped, or do you mean flopped in critical reception?
>>744496923>immune to all forms of crowd control, cannot be captured>is incredibly powerful and has massive adverse effects on its environment, completely destroyed an entire kingdom by itself>is a combination of all three forms of Fatalis with all of their powersIt's labeled as a Construct because it's an artificial creature, but it's an Elder Dragon in every single way.
>>744497151>You call this a fucking flop?Yes it sold 3 times les sthan the previous game in the series, Capcom said it flopped 100 times by now, they are literally reducing the price so that it could sell a bit more. WORLD IS STILL SELLING MORE DESPITE BEING 1000 YEARS OLD AT THIS POINT
>>744497151>sales are all that matters!It hasn't even reached 11 million because people spread the word of how much the gameplay sucks, how horrendous and ugly the graphics and character designs are, all the brown people in it, the jeet boy the game is centered on, the retarded story, the incredible easiness of everything in it, and how garbage the game runs despite ten attempts to "fix" it.
>>744497248>>744497269The only monster hunter games that sold more are world and rises
>>744497401Your point being?
>>744497401>two good games outsold a faggot tranny jeet piece of shit
>>744496838Imagine being so mentally ill you actually prefer loading screens to open zones.
>>744497480Loading screens allow you to relax while fighting terryfing monsters, I don't see the issue. Now MH turned into ADHD slop where you fight monsters with no breaks in between
>>744497480It's just shitposting reactionary nonsense
>>744497480I would prefer the game to not be tracking everything happening at once which eats up resources that can be used to make the game look and run better.
>>744497540>loading screens are better because it makes games easier for meOkay?
>>744497570That has nothing to do with screen transitions, and it's clear now that it's a company wide problem at Crapcom since DD2 has the same exact issue and so do the RE Remakes, they're trying to push the RE Engine far more than they should.
Does anyone here who played 4U online remember a player named Jannik? He'd like sit in a hub for days on end somehow and speak broken english trying to pick up chicks.
>>744466771>That's crazy because the intro of 4U sucksthe structured heavy tutorialising of 4u is a better onboarding experience than the throw a bunch of weapons and mechanics at the player of gu, world and rise.

>>744498289I do not, please enlighten an anon
>>744498410https://pretendo.network/
>>744497480I prefer the loading screens. They gave the world a sense of being bigger that was completely lost in MHW. Unironically the game meant to be immersive showed the limitations in a way previous games allowed you to fill the gaps with your mind. It's like seeing yellow paint as markers in modern games. The illusion is broken more easily
>>744498490Never knew about this, that's cool. Thanks for the info.
>>744498493None of the levels in the older games felt bigger because they had loading screens. In reality each of the zones are quite small.
>>744498673NTA but just compare the island in the top zone of Jungle in FU/GU compared to the remade version in Sunbreak. There's definitely a bigger sense of distance in the old map compared to the little moat in the new one
>>744498673Yes, the areas/arenas where you fought the monsters were smaller. But the bigger world at large that you'd see in the background felt bigger in scale, which for me helped much more with immersion compared to what the modern entries did by getting rid of the loading screens between zones. The limitations in scope felt more noticeable as a result of the loading screens disappearing, because now the hunter had to be able to traverse that distance on foot, with the palamute or a seikret. Meanwhile in older monster hunter maps the hunter would sometimes traverse much longer distances, reaching a mountain that you'd see looming over in the distance from a previous zone. There was this sense of huge scale, crossing domains where humans were clearly not meant to be that got lost with modern entires
>>744497473>>744497473>>two good gameslollmaohahaha
>>744498756>compare the island in the top zone of Jungle in FU/GU compared to the remade version in Sunbreakjfc
>>744498673it was all in the vistas/skybox man. The implied distanced traveled from zone to zone. the illusion/abstraction of the space inbetween loading screens. like this is the first room in the arctic ridge, yeah? see that mountain you can climb it etc etc
>>744499402here is that mountain I'm pretty sure in ONE ROOM over, taken from the top of the climb in that area.
I HATE LEDGES
>>744499446>>744499402and here is the view of the river I was standing at previously
Bherna from MHGU is a perfect example of this as well. this here is the village, see those blue flags and rock formations in the distance?
>>744479265I solo'd G rank Lao on Switch first try with a great sword and I even fucked up the canons. Did you guys not hit the belly? I suppose I've been killing Laos for over a decade.
>>744499657it's the gathering hub.
I like to think a single hunt actually takes several days if not weeks in canon.
>>744499736Imagine triple carting/fucking dying after several weeks worth of effort because a konchu rolled onto the monster you were hunting right as you were about to deliver the finishing blow
>>744460928it was my first MH game and the game that got me into the series, and to be honest it's still my favourite even if GU has basically everything 4U has and more.
>>744499821Nature is harsh. That's why many 3rd rate hunters stick to picking mushrooms and small-time pest disposal until retirement.
>>744496604I actually think they will do that, and the next soft-reboot will abandon the slow clunky gameplay most normalfags hate about MH and just go full From Soft combat. Lance users will seethe about it but most other weapons can be adjusted to faster paced combat
>>744499712probably varies from game to game, MH4U it probably takes forever because you're using the caravan and we see that it takes at least a day to travel from the first city to the smithing village of nonstop travel. MHGU and World you're using an airship to get to place from place, which is why you drop in on the bird thing in MHW. I imagine the early games you're just hoofin it though.
>>744500176whoops meant to tag >>744499736
>>744499736Presumably you have to depart the village, sail or caravan for days to reach the hunting ground, set up your camp, wait for the monster to enter the area, hunt it, then do everything in reverse but with the monster corpse to go back home.It's why you used to have to pay a fee to take quests, all that shit ain't free. Mh has really lost that kind of low fantasy "working man" immersion that it used to thrive on. Now it's chosen one save the world anime plot every time. Sucks balls
>>744493389>sneaking in rise when it has as much atory cutscenes as 4uWorldbab
>>744460928The first one I played. I don't remember how far I got in it.
>>744500428it's not about the cutscenes tranny but the game physics5th gen will neevr be monster hunter. kill yourself subhuman

>>744500341MHFU really has the most cozy intro because instead of an over the top action sequence it really lasers in on the more lowkey and under explored minutiae of monster hunting as a lifestyle.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5I5n2dP_FRA
>>744500560This game has PS2 graphics no matter the settings and hardware
>>744500560>gaming timethe npcs and mount will do the heavy lifting for you + yap all the time. I wish I was joking
>>744500584It's funny because ps2 games at native 480p often look more crisp and colorful than modern upscale post processed slop
>>744498834>>744499402>>744499446>>744499525The player being made to feel like they're running several miles back and forth between two points instead of them being a reasonable distance from each other, several times per mission, is less immersive though.
>>744500341Wasn't the hunter in Wilds just a hunter? If they have to make the hunter an actual character, this depiction was perfect.
>>744500994I feel like people only bring up irrelevant crap like this if they're unable to voice any legitimate problems with a game.
>>744500994so you can believe a hunter can go toe to toe with massive dragons while wielding massive weapons and heavy armorm, but a light jog over a large distance is too much? at least mention how the time passed between screen transitions isn't reflected by the monster's position on the map or something man
>>744498834Loading screens are entirely anti-immersive though. It breaks the game's flow and takes you right out of the experience of traveling a world.
>>744500535>physics >plays the most like GUTranny yourself
>>744478979>>744485232>that first time I played FU>scared fucking shitless of the the Trigex during the tutorial Popo Tongue>traumatized into git gud>kick Tigrex's ass in Rank 3>felt like Superman >get to the dual Tigrex quest>get my ass handed multiple times>git gud>the joy of overcoming your limitsOld MH was a blast. FU, 4U and GU will always be my favorite games in the franchise.
>>744501448anon I don't think you should be opposing each other. you both seem to agree that world and rise suck
>>744501229this might just be like, a generational divide kind of thing depending on how old you are. I'm 31 (gonna be 32) so I grew up during lots of big advancements tech wise for the hobby, so I grew quite used to load screens and abstracted visuals/concepts in the medium as compromises needed to be made for some things to work. I'm willing to buy into the idea of the implied space that is not literally represented to me while forgiving breaks in the illusion, where something younger may be put off by that and seek a more complete and seamless experience.
>>744460928It had some impressive shaders for a 3DS game. But otherwise, it was the first MH that felt completely flat for me.
>>744460928I played through it solo on emulator and got to G-Rank solo, I liked itGets tedious fighting multiplayer scaled monsters by yourself though, a problem I've always had with classic mh
>>744500341this is why DOS is the best monhun
>>744489325For 95% of the game wystones don't matter so there's little point in focusing on them when discussing the game as a whole.That said they're definitely a blemish on what would otherwise be a really cool endgame grind (I really wish they'd let you level investigations to silly levels in nuMH games as well, frenzied 140s moved like crackheads).
>>744501229Yeah like the ui elements and shit filling your screen rightRetard. You are a bonafide retard no wonder devs think yellow paint is ok with retards like you
>>744496604>In fact, I would want them to ditch those 3, too.Kinda feels like they were playing with the thought of ditching the Raths/making them less prominent in Wilds, seeing that the norma Raths are actually highrank exclusive (is this the first time ever?).Beyond that I don't think there's actually a single large monster returning from World if you consider guardians separate monsters, so it's basically a soft reboot in spirit.
>>744503326>the ui elements and shit filling your screen rightAll those things you can turn off?
POV: hunt successful.
>>744460928Frenchies ruined this game for me. RUINED IT.

Were MH threads at the time of 4u release and earlier the same as they are now? This and others ive seen are all so antagonistic and negative
>>744511591It's always been like this, thanks to Capcom's retardation, combined with console faggotry
>>744511824i'll leave and continue solo then
>>744501762You're being too reasonable and understanding, why are you on /v/?
>>744511591I remember being easily able to find/create lobbies to play the game with anons back thenthere also was some huge seething about VITA being excluded from getting MH4Ua lot of (valid) criticism towards shitters who didn't get wystones and got carried through the guild questsretards who kept carting to molten tigrexje suis montéBack then the discussions were somewhat more civil, just that it was tribabs who got most flak and also there was a significant portion of people complaining about the streamlining in 4U compared to previous games, that mounting ruined the game, the maps being shit to navigate, the monster health pool being low etc. But the consensus was that it was somewhat great. It was a much less divisive game than XX or World when they came out. World also had the misfortune of bringing normalfags, souls shitters and other tourists into the series and consolewarriors stirring the pot calling everyone tendies, even if your favorite monster hunter game was freedom unite on the PSP. For me world killed this series for good, made it unrecognizable and I'm surprised that it took wilds for people to point out most of the issues that game had were already present in some way or form in world. I fucking hate this
>>744514935>it took wilds for people to point out most of the issues that game had were already present in some way or form in worldeither delusional or dishonest. people hate Wilds because its shit and people love World because it's good and I'm sure you don't hear this for the first time
>>744515282>worldsperm is a thirdiepottery
>>744514935XX was the last time the MH community felt relatively cohesive and sovlfulit came at the peak of 3DS hacking, so the community was geared up to get it translated and available in the USnever forget the kino lobbies where random japs would join with Ahtlal Ka armor with Mushroomancer gemmed in, every single timeWorld fucked MH up irreparably
>>744515460>retard is retardedexpected
>>744460928I liked it a lot until wystones became mandatory.Then it turned to shit.
>>744460928It was my very first MH game, and I got to Gogmazios completely solo, but I never beat himI beat that one G Rank quest with the Brachydios and Stygian Zinogre with less than 1 minute remaining and felt like a god
>>744515686It's ok pablo, you're just genetically incapable of having good taste
>>744515946what is good taste when it comes to monster hunter, retard?
>>744515946>no answeras expected from a tendie
>>744517884>only tendies hate worldI bought a ps4 pro just to play that slop because I care about MH, not the corporation that makes the shitboxes that run itfact of the matter is that it fucked up every single aspect of MH. lobbies became impersonal and pointless because of 16 players and SoS, merging guild and story quests while forcing you into solo cutscenes fucked the multiplayer progression every other game had, armor and weapon designs are still to this day the worst in the series, 4 hours of Sony moviegame nonsense made progression absurdly painful and broke the natural pacing every other game had, all the cinematic qte bullshit like cuck claw and zero sum discharge railroaded combat, and I can just go on and on. It's the absolute worst entry since MH1.

>>744521354actual je suis monte
>World>Good at anything All My keks with those jeets
Pretty good maybe even the best monhun. Shagaru and Gore are their best designs yet. Not as memorable as 3U but plays better. Best game would be portable 3rd if it had more content
>>744521771>>744521853stay mad trannies, I don't have self insert issues
>>744522135well, will you post your card or what? or is this >>744521580 your card? for me it looks like defender gear rushed to iceborne. but that doesn't make sense, since you said that you bought a ps4 for World. either way I don't care, since your first post was the generic tendie bs that they get from youtube videos>saw the superior animations>saw the sharp hitboxes>saw the amazing world and graphics>but somehow filtered by 16 player lobbies and similar bs
>>744522549I wasn't the anon saying I bought a PS4 for world
>>744522549>saw the superior animations>saw the amazing world and graphicsthis shit is for movie game enjoyers not gamers, troonworldbabs really showing their hand as usual>saw the sharp hitboxesslop created for feel good fake gamers
>>744522747>saddest bait in the world... wild
>>744504190Gemma looks so cute in the summer outfit
I'm gonna put a PSP emulator on my deck and play P3rd again because of this thread, thanks guys
>>744524454NOOO DON'T DO ITIT'S TOO EASY!
the difficulty felt right with mh4u. Shame they still allowed palicoes they should be permanently removed
>>744525159Why? Palicoes were purrfectly fine. I think you have some weird issue here, anonya. I mean anon.
>>744525159I think having palicos make the game harder because the monster becomes more difficult to predict.
>>744460928It is the best MH game which has led to endless controversy, because Nu-school fans and ps2 discord contrarians both need to exaggerate its flaws to make it look like the worst thing ever.Probably my most /timeplayed in any video game, so i’m no unbiased, but I feel like this was the best the combat ever was in the series. Fast and punishing but deliberate. Mostly fair. Fuck rajang. Fuck stygian and apex zinogre. Ukanlos and Akantor were great and i’m glad modern capcom is letting them rest in peace.
>>744525502that's why they don't take them on hunts, while pretending that it makes the game harder. especially true for GS users
>>744526429>ecause Nu-school fans and ps2 discord contrariansYou mean it's the ""best"" MH for bingtendie troons who started with it, right?
>>744525502>>744526467Yeah unfortunately for felynes since I was tired of missing level 3 charges because of them I never used them in hunts since FU. Sorry, cat bros. At least you could cook
>>744526429>/timeplayedHow to ruin the credibility of your entire post in one word.
>>744510942FUCK OFF RETARD
All MH games are good! Except for Wilds.
>>744525502Yup. I'd say they only make the game easier starting in 5th gen when they get crazy abilities.
>>744527365games are meant to be played, not watched
>>744526914how can you even begin to try this as an insult when you started with World of all games
>>744527893Where did you get that from?I started with Freedom 2
>>744514567gotta be the change you want to see. I like discussing games, so I try to discuss things in good faith in hopes of having others follow suit
>>744514935>there also was some huge seething about VITA being excluded from getting MH4UI dunno about seething it was really just the>TFW no MH on vita guywith the same gif being posted over and over, I cannot for the life of me find now though.
I wish we got a 4u decomp so we didn't have to use gay 3ds emulatorsat least the GU on ryubing looks and runs fucking perfect, you can even play online
>>744529257>he didn't keep his 3DSI play on real hardware online thanks to pretendo
>>744529387I'm calling Nintendo police
>>744529387I sold mine, it was on its last legs.you can emulate but it looks like garbage both in real hardware and when you run it on anything above the garbage native res that was like 240p fuck it manat least GU scratches the same itch
>>744460928i played a bit through emulation with a friend, i'm too much of a casual, too used to QoL that makes it easier to go through menus and other shit
>>744529387I bought 4U before the eshop died but I fucking hate playing on the 3DS. I enjoyed it enough to beat the caravan quest but I still haven't done the guild quest because playing on that tiny fucking screen with those shitass camera controls is fucking lame.
>>744529387I hate playing MH on my 3DS and I love MH and use my 3DS regularly. Emulation is required to enjoy 4U
mh died when it stopped including cute lolis
>>744529486Nintendo police patents just got revoked
>>744461398>>744460928Ass mapsAss new mechanic (mounting)Ass returning monsters (G1-G2 monster sucks ass compared to Gen 3 and 4 with a few exceptions like raths, narga, grex, etc)Fantastic overall and the magalas are easily top tier monsters.XX sucks dong besides the fact it has the biggest roster and cat mode being fun
>>744497151yeah nigger, making that garbage probably costed them 4000 gorillion yen and they expected to sell way more
>>744499402>>744499336>21:9
>>744468306No map in or after World can be anywhere near the bottom because you actually have the camera control to deal with it. 4U fucking sucks because you can't see shit.
>>744530056NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>744530006
>>744529894>>744529984skill issue I'm afraid, game feels fine on 3DS my biggest issue with it though is the variable framerate for 4U in particular. I might be able to push it to a more consistent 60 if I increased my clock speed in the firmware but I haven't really fucked with any of that
>>744460928gets mogged by FU
>>744530220imagine the flavor
>>744530221>but I haven't really fucked with any of thatIsn't it just 2 extra checkmarks when booting gm9?
>>744497151>>744497401>niche games sold less>world broke containment so now it's a mainstream franchise, naturally they sold a lot more>most anticipated entry since world broke containment, made with insane amounts of money, having a great marketing campaign, etc>still sold less than rise, a game literally made with a box of scrapsAnon, I don't know what to tell you. I have no dog in this fight since I didn't play Wilds, but I think it's pretty objectively a flop.
>>744530143it looks pretty nice outside of the UI stretching, though there are some areas where you can see stuff you aren't supposed to.
>>744529984>Emulation is required to enjoy 4UCan I configure my second analog stick to use for the camera?
>>744530376yes
>>744530315yeah it's not hard to do, I just haven't really looked into it at all so I don't want to mess with things that I'm not fully informed on.
>>744497480I hate the loading screens, but the segmented maps are pretty objectively better. They should just have made a black screen instant transition between each area tbf.
:O!
>>744498834This is true imo, it's interesting how having smaller, limited areas where the player gets to move, but surrounded by large landscapes *feels* like the game is much bigger without becoming a chore. The big issue with open world shenanigans, both inside and out of this franchise is that even if it's a spectacle to look at most of the time you're literally just walking on empty areas that would otherwise just be there for ornamentation and immersion. This actually forces those games to be *smaller* in scope because everything you see must be walkable.I think the best example of this in my experience comes from FFXIV, actually. The first expansion (ARR) had some fantastic maps. They were structured like intersecting corridors that were relatively fast do walk by, with huge areas that you couldn't go into serving as the backdrop. From Heavensward onwards they just made every map a huge open square/circle, and GOOD LORD it feels like a chore to unlock the map every time. Left on picrel is ARR, right is Heavensward.>>744501229This is true too imo, but I'm a zoomer so this anon >>744501762 might be right.It's easy to fix though, just make the loading instant and add a fading black screen like I said here >>744530436 and it's easy to get used to it
I love monster hunter
>>744460928I stopped playing monster hunter for a while after I played this one for a little. I think I was just burnt out on the series.
>>744529387Wait really? How do you set up pretendo on an actual 3DS?
>>744534829https://pretendo.network/docs/welcome
>>744534916Fug I don't have any SD adapters since I used a work computer from an old job in 2017 to hack my 3DS
I have anti-Rise fatigue
>>744535719you can probably just FTP the files over as well, basically works the same. I use filezilla and FTPD to do file transfers without needing to pop out my SD card.
>>744535809I wish switch skills became a staple. Capcom's refusal to make a new weapon pisses me off to no end, switch skills at least gave us some new moves to play with and a level of customization we didn't have previously.
>>744467240World was such a casualized downgrade from before that I cannot believe worldfags have the nerve to cry about wilds. The gap between wilds and world is significantly smaller
>>744536612>The gap between wilds and world is significantly smalleronly when it comes to the technical aspect. in that sense 4U is closer to Dos than to World, but when it comes to gameplay, Wilds is barely even Monster Hunter. in any case play the games first, before posting about them
>>744537098I can't believe you typed that shit out
>>744537183u mad kek
is there something good between FU and World that isn't on a shitass 3DS
>>744537514Frontier
>>744501448It doesn't you disingenuous nigger, it plays like World with supermoves and wall running, which is even less Monster Hunter, if we go by what Gen 2-4 fans call real Monster Hunter.
>>744537514frontier, p3rd, tri, 3U and GU
>>744496604>In fact, I would want them to ditch those 3, too.I fucking wish, but Rathalos, and his goddamn wife by association, is pretty much a permanent stay in every game because of his OG flagship status.But good lord would I jump in joy if neither of them were included, or if at the very least they were the only versions of their species present (I will never not seethe at the Metal Raths being the only sub/rare species present in Gen and also being able to go Hyper too).
>>744467240if only it was more worldfocus mode is fucking retarded and completely takes over every weapons moveset to turn them into 360 no scope adhd nonsensethat and not a single area is memorable because you either call the bird and blaze past all of it or walk 10 minutes through giant empty plains and deserts (and still have to call the bird through the forced sections)still runs and looks like shit, still overeliant on upscaling and fake frames
Really hope some dev out there is working on a classic monhun game because lord knows Capcom never is again. Positioning should matter, attacking should be a commitment and the monster should be able to reduce the player's resources through attrition until you have to lock in or fail the quest.
>>744537653how's 3U? I've played World and FU and nothing else
>>744540270*also portable 3rd
>>744540270>>744540326It's just portable 3rd with swimming and G rank. You have a couple of goofy little tribal niggas instead of palicos too
>>744540398is anything else on WiiU to emulate
>>744540451I emulated breath of the wild via CemU before switch emulation was a thing. can't really think of anything worth emulating on it anymore, most the worthwhile stuff got ported off. even Wonderful 101
>>744540451I dunno it's the only game I have for it lol
>>744460928I only have a 3DS XL and without the dual stick accessory this is fucking unplayable. I'm about to buy a New 3DS just for the clit nub
>>744541012I played monster hunter so much on my 3DSXL that I destroyed the thumbpad and had to install a new one. Must be a a you problem.
>>744541012just emulate it
>>744541124Using the DPAD for the camera is horrible
>>744540000Yeah but don't bring back that piece of shit
>>744541012The nub is enough if you aren't a retard, my motorskills aren't even good.
>>744541221The XL doesn't have a nub, you retard
>>744541285Seems like a piece of shit then
>>744541012Yeah it is insane that they needed to ship a gigantic plastic wrapper just to make 4U playable on that console. I still keep the waste of space in a drawer just for this single game
>>744541012I played all of both 3U and 4U using the touch screen dpad and it worked pretty alright. Nub is certainly better, though I wish it was bigger.
>>744541285That's like getting a woman with big tits but no nipples lmao
>>744540451thats monster hunter? no. frontier had a wii u version but private servers haven't been able to bring it back yet so the wii u is stuck with only 3U.
>>744537098>when it comes to gameplay, Wilds is barely even Monster Huntersame with world, and this was before clutch claw made things even worse with IB
>>744541980how does world come anywhere closeclutch claw is bad but you do the little minigame then forget about itwhat erodes the gameplay outside of that
>>744534916Buy an ad, trannyshill
>>744536612Your Fatalis proofs?
>>744542448meds
>>744468436Best GS in the series but also the most boring weapon ever
>>744478706what hurts the most is I was actually hopeful Gen would be a decent game and played itto death to get my money's worth of it but not even my ifl friends who I played 4u played itYet those same niggers are the ones who sing praises of XX which only added fucking Lao shan to the dumpster fireFucking hypocrites
>>744542448what's the matter culture war addict? afraid of someone being helpful in regards to the hobby?
>>744542392>how does world come anywhere closelet's see, off the top of my head:-introduced being able to move/cancel out of healing-overpowered mantles-introduced stocking up mid hunt at camps-can cook mid hunt/post carting-Monsters are less aggressive and do less damage-heavily reduced negative armor attributes with sets-flipped gems/talismans being RNG/set, making it so most of your loadout is based on randomness rather than specific hunts-weapon attacks are less committal, this is most apparent with the greatsword but applies to movesets in general>clutch claw is bad but you do the little minigame then forget about itno you don't, it needs to be reapplied throughout the hunt. The devs realized this mechanic fucking sucks and added a skill that circumvents this at the ass end of world's life where it didn't matter anymore
>>744542501I'm going to be real with you, I stopped playing before the alatreon update because I was so sick of this game's bullshit (I stopped playing base game too and gave IB a chance). Whether or not alatreon/fatalis are proper fights doesn't discount from the rest of the game (sans behemoth EX) being braindead
>>744460928I can't give a valid opinion because I've only played console versions since the original.
>>744496171I dunno man I’m pretty sure 10 star Gog is the hardest fight in Wilds, by quite a bit.
Whichever game I got into a series at is the best one, older games are too chopped and limited and newer ones change things and are therefore bad.
>>744543732You haven't fought the 10* Tempered Rompopolo.
>>744542501Bro there’s shit in Wilds right now that is significantly harder than IB Fatalis, and it doesn’t even have a G-Rank yet.
>>744543776I like everything between FU and 4U. World was okay but clearly going in the wrong direction and Wilds is what was obviously going to happen given that
>>744543898Oh yeah XX is alright too and Rise is a little better than World, just because it has actual weapon designs
I don't think monsters need to wiggle their asses for five seconds before doing a tail spin.
>>744542501NTA but fatty is not very hard
>>744544271...who does that?
>>744544727Every flying wyvern since world
>>744544662yeah he's just normally hard
>>744543732Gog in Wilds is a glorified setpiece fight designed to timegate you every 10-15 minutes for another artian gacha roll.
>>744540000>Really hope some dev out there is working on a classic monhun gameIt was the perfect time with the perfect devs. There will never be anything like it.
>>744541012Just emulate like a normal person
>>744541285The New 3DS XL does. Why don't you have that one?With dual IPS screens as well?
>>744540000>Positioning should matter, attacking should be a commitment and the monster should be able to reduce the player's resources through attrition until you have to lock in or fail the quest.giga based + digits to back itI despise nu-great sword
I never played 1 and DOS.Should I?
>>744546424they're kind of janky but they're fun enough to boot up to just to see how different things are now.
>>744546424DOS has some unique aspects to it that are worth experiencing if you don't have a big backlog and have a good amount of spare time. Don't waste your time on 1
>>744546424I love Dos especially with the fanmade online servers. Occasionally we'd max out 10 people in a lobby and it really brought back that old spirit of playing MH. There's usually 20 something people playing around American primetime.
>>744546424Everyone says dos is good but you need a lot of patience since the available resources are so meager or not present at all depending on the in-game season. Probably do an emulator so you can at least shave 50 hours of watching gathering animations off your playtime with fast forward
>>744546424Don't listen to all the other faggots. If you don't play 1, you're not a real Monster Hunter fan.
>>744546424not really, the tedium of non-automated resource gathering and crafting single-handedly drags the games down a few points
>>744546424You need the right mindset to enjoy these games. Have you already played most of the series? You need to be prepared because you're in for some shit. This is a whole other world of tedious. If you wanna see just how bad MH can get, here you go.
>>744546791>Don't listen to all the other faggots. If you don't play 1, you're not a real Monster Hunter fan.Kinda based
>>744546424theyre made for school kids with nothing to doif you have a job then you probably wont enjoy the hours of gathering runs
>>744546424that means you played FU? if yes, then don't play dos and 1. if no, then play FU instead
>>744548292>that means you played FU?All quests, G-Rank, solo.White Fatalis eats my ass
>>744548440you won't see anything new then
>>744540000trvke trvke trvke
>>744521771>Frogs also use Travelo as an insult for tranniesI suddenly feel a bit of respect for you guys
>>744468436god Ceadeus gear is pure SEX
>>744543853Sounds pretty artificial
>>744548292>>744548440FU is my favorite and first MH. I still love Dos. Play Dos. It's a completely different experience especially on the servers. Trust.
I just beat Risen Shagaru Magala for the first time.Shit was easy. Primordial Malzeno gave me problems wtf
>>744546424No. Unless you really, really like the most grindy boss rush games ever made
Best and only good version of charge blade Last good monster hunter, no styles, no trannymogs.
>>744546424Dos is incredible, and the most difficult game in the series. I would recommend it entirely. I love it.
>>744546694I'd rather be castrated than use (((speed up))), no thanks fag I'll watch each animation as I have done these past two decades.
I'd go back and play the ps2 games but I remember vespoid niggertry when doing egg deliveries and of I got stung by one I'd probably throw my controller at the wall
I hate ledges
>>744552013Based vespoidsWe need some at our borders Tbh
>>744551089Primo Zeno is definitely harder, I don't think that's a hot take
>>744460928i liek it. i prefer FU but 4u was good as well. what I don't like is completing all guild card awards. over 250 great jaggi hunts and still no mini crown :(
>>744551742I fully appreciate how they add to the pacing and relaxing ambience of your gathering missions and let you take in the scenery but at a certain point they build up and I would rather not have actual days of my life wasted on watching gathering animations
>>744543853Even just in World I'd rather fight fatty ten times in a row than attempt extremoth or ancient leshen
>>744553953The arena quests seem like they would be the biggest bottleneck soloFuck that triple Tigrex arena quest so much. Easily the most agonizing quest in the series>What if we made 3/5 weapons fight an apex monster without wystones as a joke?
>>744555038i went with lance and focused the head on the faggots. but i agree it was COMPLETE AIDS. I am not going for s rank solo. miss me with that shit.
Bump.
>>744546791this
MH1 ain't that bad. Just pick SnS and Lance and you'll be fine.
>>744546791this but only if you go back to your childhood and play online in the ps2 days and then stopped playing at mh4u(which was already shit from mounting and verticality)
>>744546424Don't make yourself play 1. Dos is worth playing for the radically different design philosophy that has been totally lost by gen 5 and 6. Like the gunlance exists but you can only make your first one hours into the game. Just gotta patch your ISO for the fan translation and put the other two files in the right place. https://break-arts.com/projects/There's also a patch for the controls separate from the break-arts team which you may or may not feel is necessary.
