How bad are the Gunlance changes? GL is my mainstay weapon and I hope it's not bad.

I can't wait to fight Malfestio without those cats knocking me out of easy GS charge swings. I wish I could tell them to just leave me alone during confusion.

My girlfriend saw Athena's rear end on my comp and asked what kind of porn I was hiding. Are there more insect glaive options? I loved that stupid thing but my irl hunt friends group fell apart.

So it turns out the armor and the weapons I want the most in MHGen all come from Gammoth. Can't wait to farm him for weeks in the name of fashion But I mean, look at this fancy thing (it's a lance):

Vanderdeath posted:How bad are the Gunlance changes? GL is my mainstay weapon and I hope it's not bad. Basically, there's a heat gauge now. It rises every time you shell and at the level of your gauge determines whether you're getting full damage out of your stabs. The gauge goes down slowly over time, as well as every time you stab. Wyvern fire freezes the gauge in place for a couple minutes. It's intended to encourage people to mix up shelling and stabbing and not rely on one or the other. In practice, even when you're at max heat you're still doing a bit less damage than you otherwise would have done in 4U. It's not gamebreakingly bad, but it's a senseless nerf to an already criminally underplayed weapon. Also while every shot type works best with guild, there's a "bestish" style for each shot type.

Still, given managing a resource influences opportunities, and that it takes a while to get up to red, yeah, Gunlance absolutely needs more time to deal damage over the course of a hunt, and screw ups are EXTREMELY punishing. The latter is probably the worst of it, but the gauge generally is going to influence the playstyle, so longtime fans may be discouraged. If you just like a big stick that blows poo poo up, or playing a slow pace weapon that is more about letting things come to you than constantly chasing them down, then there isn't really anything wrong with GL as is. Could use a little more damage, but it won't feel anemic compared to what you're used to... at red heat.

Yesterday was a really bad time to find out that my L button doesn't work even after opening up the 3DS. Looks like I gotta wait until I can get a new system to play this. Was looking forward to changing it up and going bow instead of DS

I was thinking of trying some bowing in 4U so I'd have more of a feel for it in Gen, but needed a single diablos hardhorn to upgrade my seregios bow to a usable level for g rank. I've done like ten hunts, breaking the horns each time and haven't turned up a single one. On the upside, I've become quite good at smacking diablos in the face and then rolling through its charges with evade +2. Can't wait to get trolled by the desire sensor all over again in Generations!

Dr Snofeld posted:If I understand the Gaijinhunter video correctly, there's a visual cue for guard points on Charge Blade now This is technically not true - In Generations, the effect is much more pronounced. In 4, the guard point visual was a little spark, which I guess some people never noticed?

MH4U didn't get a midnight release on the eShop even though Majora's Mask 3DS released the exact same day and did get a midnight release. I was so disappointed that night.

The latter is probably the worst of it, but the gauge generally is going to influence the playstyle, so longtime fans may be discouraged. Yeah this is a really good summary. Gunlance now requires a bunch more finicky upkeep in order to do basically the same damage as before -- and if you gently caress up, which is easy to do, hello 15% damage decrease for two entire minutes. As someone who loved gunlance to death in 4U playing GL in MHX was pretty disappointing, especially when previously underpowered weapons (SnS and LS in particular) got buffed back to awesomeness so I was expecting good things. quote:If you just like a big stick that blows poo poo up, or playing a slow pace weapon that is more about letting things come to you than constantly chasing them down, then there isn't really anything wrong with GL as is. Could use a little more damage, but it won't feel anemic compared to what you're used to... at red heat. To be fair though, Rocket Dash helps mobility a lot since it charges pretty fast. Useful for chasing monsters down or getting the hell out of dodge. 'Could use a little more damage' is an understatement IMO -- the whole heat gauge system needs a drastic overhaul. The devs were acknowledging before release that GL was underused, but I still saw a fair few in 4U -- in my experience the weapon may as well not exist in MHX multiplayer.

In a video someone posted last thread, someone was using aerial greatsword and the initial jump seemed to be doing a slash during the initial hop onto the monster before they actually started air charging. Does aerial style actually do that or are they somehow attacking during their initial jump?

Does aerial style actually do that or are they somehow attacking during their initial jump? It was probably the draw attack, which for Aerial GS is a leaping slash that does mounting damage. As far as I know there is no way to attack during the initial Aerial hop for any weapon, you have to trigger the second jump. There are also no attack you can execute during a jump (with Aerial GS) before you begin a charge, the one hit, charged or no, is all you get.
