My friend has limited money so I was hoping the free demo would be enough to convince him to get into MH. We play games together all the time so I had my hopes up, but he admitted that he simply had no idea what he was doing, even after several hunts. Which makes sense, but he decided not to get the game, so it's put a bit of a damper on today for me.

I've never had a problem with it but that might be yet another notch in the "learn to move with inverted controls" ladder of video games I've played.

Speaking of plates right after that dude complained about having to farm one a few pages ago I got one on my very first Astalos. Unless plates can't drop in LR, in which case I am hallucinating.

HOTLANTA MAN posted:No weapon in this game is complicated provided you do a training quest and go kill great maccao a couple times ^^^ There are weapons I don't know how to use and the entry curve seems kind of intimidating like Hunting Horn or HBG but yeah this sums up how I feel about all the weapons in MH and why the game is fun. There's nothing stopping you from trying out something new.

I meant more in terms of Adept Bow vs. Anything melee. For instance, do monsters change up their moveset and get more deadly at range than close up? That kinda stuff. Good point about multiple mobs though, I hadn't even considered that.

Your Computer posted:I wasn't trying to say he was difficult or anything, I just meant the general disparity in difficulty between ranged and melee at this point in the game. I can't really blame you for asking, honestly the monsters even up to Malfestio pose no real threat to any style. At especially high ranks the downside to playing a Gunner class is that most monsters, if they hit you, can kill you in around two shots. Probably one if you have bad resistances or if it's their big fuckoff attack. Unless you're going full media blackout on the game, if you're curious as to what to expect in the future check out Glavenus, or Seregios, or Zinogre, to name a few.

Ciaphas posted:Some reddit post I can't actually find right now said if you get to HR4 Hub you'll unlock everything for trading--all the wagons and trade items--without having to do any prowler garbage in the village. Is this true? I didn't see anyone else answering this but by HR4 (it might be 5, I had a big spree last night) you do in fact unlock all three carts, more Palico space, more meownster hunter locales (and high rank for that) and a lot more! It was a nice surprise.

I'm a bit put off that the chat when you cart was taken out. Not that I cart a lot, but in 4U I used "T-tell the Guildmarm that I..." and now I can't do that any more. Being silly is half the fun of the chat presets.

Space Hamlet posted:I know, and I'll probly do it and have a fun time. Just slightly bummed to be making the compromise. I heard all these complaints about there bein' no G-rank and was like "i dont care" but oh half of the singleplayer game i'm used to is also missing how come that never got said I'm not 100% but I think because every MH for a while has been that way? Most all the cool stuff is online because at its core MH is about hunting in groups. I'm not sure about your reasons but playing Monster Hunter solo really is missing out on part of the core of the game.

The fact that High Rank Mizutsune armor gives you Attack Up (L) when inflicted with a negative status and that the bubbles it generates counts as a negative status is awesome.

The Moon Monster posted:The whole level mechanic with the deviants kinda megasucks if you want to get the armor with PUGs. I've made a room for Stonefist Hermitaur named "lvl 4" and in 20 minutes, I've had 2 people join, run up to quest board (the quest I currently have active is the level 4 stonefist quest) and immediately leave. I don't even want to do the level 4 quest. I just need to do it to unlock the level 5 quest which I need to unlock the level 6 quest. The urgent style quest progression is also a pretty poo poo idea. I was running a lobby with a friend last night called "LR Mizu Farm" with "3*" set as the type of quest, and had no less than four people run in and queue up the 5* Urgent. I promptly kicked them.

katkillad2 posted:Holy poo poo, new least favorite fight. I'll spoiler it just because maybe it's a village quest spoiler since I haven't seen people mention it before...and for whatever reason the quest disappeared after I finished it, Kirin. Never standing still for more than 5 seconds, worse than Blangonga... Lightning more annoying than Khezu and staying in that lightning form 80% of the time during which it's skin is the hardest of any monster I've seen. To top all of that off, it appears that you can't even trap it??? You can't trap Elder Dragons. They're too smart. Or... something. He's an interesting fight, most of the annoyance is owed to his size and speed. Really low health is the tradeoff.

I got tricked - you don't get Deviant Soul skills until armor level 6. I suppose it makes sense given that farming the Level 1 is fairly easy all things considered.

Kashuno posted:I really like the upgrading. It feels like there are more options (98 unique Gunlances in MHGen, I'd have to check 4U again to see) and they make old weapons still feel good. Like how the iron gunlance looks? Great, max it out and it's still viable. I like the Petrified line, so I can have a petrified gunlance that isn't trash late game. It's neat and I don't mind it. Also it lets me map out what I'm doing a lot easier. I agree, it makes it feel like anything you pick is or will be eventually viable. I just finished up Death prize and although I wish it looked a little better it was cool to get a strong weapon from relatively easy to get parts. I mean in 4U some weapons regardless of how cool they were became a bad choice due to just a numbers game.

Panic! at Nabisco posted:MonHun really, really needs a transmog/glamour type system so you can fashion hunt and not be grossly suboptimal. I absolutely disagree but that's because I'm old fashioned and hate transmog. I'm a big fan of what you see is what you get, even if that ends up looking goofy. For you fashion hunters out there I can definitely sympathize.

Sakura Slash is two gigantic slashes, Critical Juncture doesn't really look like much other than a really fast downward stroke, but that was probably it because it does to quite a bit of damage iirc Or it could just be the Spirit Combo finisher, that thing is plenty flashy on its own now

In a three man lobby a friend posted Alatreon as a joke, since neither of us had fought him before. The sub quest was break his horns, so we laughed it off and figured we'd abandon after three or so minutes. Fifteen minutes later we had killed him, with both horns broken and a tail sever. It felt great. Zodack fucked around with this message at 19:18 on Aug 8, 2016 |
