WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Reminder that if you like Rick and Morty you are literally plebbit and not allowed to hunt with us.
No Plebbit and Memey kids in /mhg/ rooms! Stay with devilbros or the discord.

Why does the ground look so weird?

>being hyped about going back to no styles
>being hyped about non-evades costing you carts until very late game
>being hyped that capcom somehow wont screw up world just as much as they'd ever screwed up a past MH
>"t-they finally gonna make a good monhun"

I wonder how many people just want this

Because it's running on the power of the switch!

>>being hyped about going back to no styles
>Liking styles

I liked styles better when they're just called Guardlancing and Evadelancing

>being a gencuck
>being a literal retard

>get around to trying alchemy style
>host posts white fatalis
>end up carting to the simple dragon projectile balls cause no useful evasion tools
Gen made MH worthwhile. XX made MH kinda fun. I'm not going back. I can't go back. I dont want these shit 1 frame invulnerability rolls that are useless.

>styles

>g-give me (You)s, g-guys
ebin

you won't be missed

Adept made MH worthwhile, Brave made MH kinda fun*

did you try to git gud?

Don't worry, you can now equip evasion boosting armor to gradually give yourself more i-frames until you're comfortable.

I'm willing to bet that evasion 1 or 2 will be a staple for most sets as it's just easy iframes.

Where the shit do you farm for plessy parts in stories?

Non-sarcastic Navi-(You) for (You)

>don't worry
>i'm GUESSING it'll be easy to get evasion+
Evasion is never easy to get until late game.

Yeah but most monsters that have difficult to dodge attacks are usually endgame too.

When you can get more i-frames from putting on a single piece of gear it's guaranteed to be on the average player's sets.

Fish

This general really has gone to shit. People just can't stop eating baits.

Area matter or wherever is fine?

Wherever should be fine. I got a nice amount just by fishing in towns.

Says you.
There are always some evasion sets in LR, it's just that nobody bothered to make them because LR is piss fucking easy.
Also, there's 5 tiers of evasion in World now, I wonder if the last tier is equal to evade +3

it's so bad I'm actually considering hunting with the bot to pass the time until the world demo drops. where's my demo Capcom!!??

>MFW suddenly remembering the only way i got through Tri HR was using the speed hack that let me run at sanic speed cause diablos was a nigger
>MFW adept and brave finally made MH actually feel really fun for me, like a proper action game made after the year 2000, where you're actually rewarded for timing your evasion instead of having to not only waste skills getting evasion, but also trying to literally guess and figure out the area of the invisible monster attack hitboxes that never aligned with the physical model or even sensibly matched the animation
I was hyped about world up until now. Thanks for reminding me.
nigger.

I imagine it's +2 i-frames per tier. With Evasion 5 giving you 16 frames in total. That's what makes sense to me.

Unless, of course, it's 1 frame per tier.

Just continue playing Switch XX kino like the rest of us who like fun. And if you ask in the discord for the secret hub deets you'll always find someone to hunt with.

Seriously who cares about boring Worlds when we already have XX kino to play right now.

Y-yeah... W-who C-cares.....

How many i-frames is evasion+3 in 4u?

18 I think.

Way too fucking many

18
sounds about right to me

Cant wait for BLACKED porn between Balfark and Nergigante

How about you try positioning properly instead of attempting to dodge through 30 frame long hitboxes with a 3 frame roll

>tfw no Monster Hunter World on Nintendo Switch

If they lessened the i-frame dodge in adept to evade +1 I doubt there would be as much shit flinging as opposed to the 20 fucking years it gives you to press B. You should have to earn your fun faggot.

>boring World(s)

...

Worlds has nice graphics but with outdated gameplay. You might as well just emulate FU on PC instead. It's basically the same thing.

XX Switch is the culmination of monster hunter. After a decade of practicing to see what works and doesn't Capcom have released the perfect monster hunter in XX. Fun gameplay and all the needed QoL improvments. It doesn't get any better than XX on the Switch.

>WorldS
stop writing like a retard

Oh no, the Bariothkin is trapped in Anvis's rape dungeon

>world is basically FU

Hitboxes have been fine since 3rd gen, outside of a few attacks and Garuga. Grow a pair.

I'd reccomend you frontier but honestly, you're not good enough to make it to g rank.

>Grow a pair

I'm a girl...

I think you mean Worldes

It's 2017, that's no excuse.

The only thing I dislike and hope gets fixed about Worlds've'st'd'll'n't'ly'mo is monster moment and placement. They pop up and down too much, they vibrate violently when colliding with other monsters and Rathalos in the air does instant awkward turns and even 180s. All stuff that looks fine on Nintendo toy consoles and is generally avoided by flat terrain and robotic movements in older games but clashes hard with the new analogue style.

World's'd've'mst

Stupid faggot kiddo with no semblance of real life.

Earning your fun is working a job and getting cash to spend on your fun. Theres zero point in "earning" your fun in the thing you then give away your hard earned cash to get and attempt to alleviate your woes with.

Capcom are honestly fucked retarded spoiled rotten babies who've become too comfortable with making a lot of money for very little work, but that problem just extends to their MH team which has always been shit even back when they were still making good games. They honestly operate in a completely different delusional reality than the consumer market with implying dedication to their games to "earn" your fun WONT impede on dedication to any other aspect of your life that'll actually pay off more than sitting around on your ass trying to decipher the cryptic and vague bullshit surrounding MH.

I really, really don't like Nintendo.

Hitboxes were fine in 4u. 4u alone. There were games both before and after.

Why is 4U still so much fun? Everything but Brachy, Moran and biggest snake is fun to hunt. How did Capcom achieve this but then screw it up in Gen?

You couldn't beat diablos? I started playing Monster Hunter with Tri back when I was in 8th grade. I was retarded as fuck and had no idea how skills worked and was too lazy to upgrade my weapons and Barroth almost beat the game. The only other monster who walled me as bad as Barroth did was Barioth who they neutered in 3U and XX.

japs screamed and cried because it was too hard

>not liking brachy
scrub

You forgot Gravios and Khezu still being snoozefests

4U is garbage are you sure you even played it you poser

I have more hours played across 7 saves than the bot.
They're fun with tne proper charge blade.

Which MH intro cinematic is your favorite, /mhg/?
I can't really decide, I really like Dos', Tri's and 3U's openings a lot.

I use lance against em, which amounts to basically the same thing, they're still boring fights once you learn the lessons they're meant to teach you. And then Black Gravios is just an HP Sponge.

Dos and FU can't be topped

Me either.

They're the only console manufacturer that treats their game division like a hardcore fucked profiteering business, which makes sense cause unlike the other companies that also have a gorillion multinational conglomerate subsidiaries across every facet of the entertainment industry, Nintendo still only just makes videogames.

The switch should have launched at $200 based explicitly on earning a grotesque $50 profit after production and stocking, cause the tech in it is actually not very impressive.

And it seems like Nintendo consoles always break down pretty quick or require some fucking effort of the user to get them to work properly. Recently had to take apart my 3ds cause the buttons were sticking, and it reminded me of all the other nintendo shit i'd done. From blowing on carts for the nes, buttons eventually feeling squishy and noisy for the nes and snes, n64 analog sticks going to shit with only a year or two of use, having to hack my Wii just to get the most of it cause it was a shit console with awful games. It's like the gamecube was their only solid attempt at playing with the new kids on the block, but even that was hampered by noisy controllers and uselessly small and novel minidvds.

They honestly just make overpriced garbage. They're the apple of the console industry and live on legacy alone, legacy that wont last when all they do is make more shit.

Capcom will be hurting for those nintendo dollars without world on switch, but capcom sucks too so whatever.

Ironically, Gen because of the monster-on-monster fights.

>implying I don't have a job
>implying earning my fun only extends to having a job
>WAAAAH WAAAAH I WANT FUN NOW!
Then pic related is your game fag. Also scratch below to reveal a secret code!

GIT GUD

>How did Capcom achieve this but then screw it up in Gen?
4U was a swan song to the old MH formula and so they decided to go out with a bang. Gen was made by a secondary team tha knew nothing about what made the past games great.

>that burned steak sfx at the apex of the raging storm.

I learned to play tri online, offline was never fun so i used hacks.

Online i used a custome bowgun set with rapid pierce shots and a shield, amd even then i wasnt really playing the game, judt shooting monsters right up til they were on top of me, shielding their attack, they get bored and go target another blademaster. I rarely had to leave first person mode once I entered an area, so long as I was facing the monster the shield did everything for me.

sincere question, do you even like playing videogames?

>implying the past MH games were great
Fuck man, play more games. Anyone who calls themself a gamer can't be this retarded about defending MH. The MH games were always poorly designed and outdated even when they were new, compared to many other titles in the action hack n slash rpg genre.

Goddamn, what a fuckin giggle
>what made the past games great

Uh oh the retarded shitter who bullied for being garbage at MH is here again. Remember not to give him (You)s!

For me it has been the fact that every system they've made requires so many additions in hardware or software. Every console I bought felt like it was a cheap product that needed 10 different accessories to work properly.

The WiiU needed a screen protector for the controller since it's just fucking plastic and scratches easily. If you break the controller by accident, tough luck, you have to buy a completely new console since the controllers were locked to the machine. When I bought Xenoblade X I had to buy 5 different hard drives to test with it because apparently only certain brand HDDs worked on it, for example a simple USB hard drive didn't work. The game had like over 30 gigs of DLC that basically made the game load properly because the WiiU discs were so fucking tiny and the console had no hardware space.

The N3DS that I got also needed a grip for the monster hunter games. The little knob that acts like an analog stick to control the camera worked fine for the most part, but it's a very cheap feeling rubber thing that wore out before I knew it. Even the tiniest amount of pressure and it might break. Not to mention the fucking CHARGER was sold SEPARATELY. What the actual fuck? After all that I had to get ANOTHER MicroSD for the 3DS so I could save the game files. I feel like a retard for paying money for all this extra shit. I even had to get a new stylus because they get lost so easily.

The charger is fucking awful for both consoles. A GIANT FUCKING BRICK. The wire for the WiiU controller was so small I was afraid it could snap easily if I forgot it was there and pulled too hard. Couple that with the fact that the WiiU controller ran out of battery in like 1 hour.

Top all of that off with the fact that both machines had region locking, so no importing games at all. So frustrating.

Then the fact that all games cost an arm and a leg and even used copies are insanely expensive.

You forgot the whole component cable bullshit with the GameCube. Sometimes I feel that Nintendo hates its customers.

It took them until 2013 to finally make an MH game where you could leap off a ledge, jump, and climb horizontally.

Twenty thirteen.

How many action games can you think of that didnt have these features as far back as just 2006. Fuckin Zelda had this shit in 1998.

Capcom has been at the pinnacle of the bottom of the barrel when it comes to monster hunter game development.

Who here is excited about the expansion of the fishing mechanics. Fishing in vidya is one of my most favorite things. I was crushed when I found out Breath of the Wild didnt have pole fishing.

jesus christ you retards are really dredging the bottom of the barrel with this shit

People think Monster Hunter is hard on purpose, when all the challenge comes from bad design. Its literally marketed to japanese 4th graders, you think they want a hard game? Capcom wants MH to be pokemon, and Im pretty sure the devs dont.

>Fuck man, play more games
I used to play shittons of games thanks to a fliptop ps2 and controls back then weren't 100% great, but guess what, you learned to deal with it and overcoming that shit felt great.

>Anyone who calls themself a gamer
Because I need a label to feel accomplished? Fuck off.

>The MH games were always poorly designed and outdated even when they were new
Wow it's almost as if there is some shitter detection system placed to weed out casual faggots. The game got popular in moonland because it wasn't just another mindless hack n' slash, and punished you for playing it as such without any forethought.

Seriously down a heavy batch of lye you cheating shitter and go play one of your instant gratification games instead of whining about a series heavily know for a skill wall.

Also see because it's looking more and more relevant to your issues.

When will /mhg/ return to it's regularly scheduled programing? This current one sucks.

On 4u rn and I've finally gotten to what really matters, the stupid Goku monkey. I'm using CB on this boi and he trips pretty easily. But I can only get him to drooling at most before he wombo comboes me or back jumps me.

Tell me /mhg/, how do you kill a Rajang? better if you know how with CB

Igriega chibis of the Worlds monsters when

sorry user but now that you can catch fish a billion at a time with the all purpose net I'm never using the rod again

So have we gotten anymore new on World after the PS4 conference?

good night /mhg/....

No night is ever good

Xe will never touch Worlds for it is Western trash.

What about a night with Charlotte?

B-B-B-B-BUT

Is that annoying blonde Silverlos guy Barioth-chan's brother or some shit? I don't speak anime, sorry.
was he going to rape her

You use a greatsword with crit draw, earplugs amd trem res or dual blades with weakness exploit.

No butts.

Im dont even care about efficiency factors nigga I just like to fish.

The games got popular in japan because everyone was still high off phantasy star online cooperative multiplayer, which MH desperately attempted to emulate with it's 4 player action online cooperative combat. MH truthfully was just an experiment when capcom was trying out online games, much like Resident Evil Outbreak, a 4 player online co-op RE game. They were just tossing shit at the walls to see what stuck and what didn't. You're a tryhard sperglord shitter in trying to defend ass-tier game design as popular for difficulty instead of realizing that people just wanted more multiplayer games. The industry and game expectations have grown a lot since 2006, and other capcom franchises grew up and died in that short timespan, series of games that were much better than MH ever had been. If you want to make the argument that there are a lot of japs who "appreciate" MH's "difficulty", i wont argue that, but as the primary audience? No. Definitely no. Not among japs, not among the world.

Face it man, MHW is just a really pretty graphical upgrade to the same tired and flawed base design of MH which capcom has confused as "tradition". And if you think about it, MHW is either going to be retardedly easy with how often monsters get toppled and stunned based on demo footage, or is a feature of the demos themselves that wont be present in the final game cause capcom has an inkling of understanding that there is no good reinforcement loop of positive player feedback with endlessly attacking an enemy only for the monster to not actually react to each hit, which would be shit marketing. One way or the other, MH is dead. Either its so easy that real hardcore niggers like yourself wont enjoy, or difficult to acclimate towards that normies wont enjoy it, ultimately meaning the game sells poorly and capcom finally has to merge with a better company or sell off their properties or just go to pachinko.

FFS MHW still uses the 80's arcade era 3-life cart system.

>or difficult to acclimate towards that normies wont enjoy it, ultimately meaning the game sells poorly and capcom finally has to merge with a better company or sell off their properties or just go to pachinko.

They just need journalists to toss out Dark Souls once or twice in their reviews, and presto, normies now don't care about the difficulty.
