R.I.P. CBEnergy blade is useless as fuck.
Thanks to the energy blade CB is now THE ultimate tailcutter.
>>341571224
Normal axe mode does the same without needing phials just saying.
>>341571464
Not true. First of all you need phials to boost axe damage, if you're attacking without boost, you're using CB wrong. And you only need to land the energy blade once when there's a sufficient opening, instead of literally chasing the tail in axe mode while the monster prances around.

I really don't like this whole special attack stuff. They are kinda annoying to hit a many don't feel they have a big impact when they do. The idea of ar is cool but it just feels kinda wonky compared to toukiden 2 or freedom wars. Those games also remind me of how many more options a hunting game can have

Buy it faggot.

just get the humble bundle one, you get other games as well
>tfw CB is my weaponfu and only weapon I can call myself good with
At least now nobody can call it the overpowered shitter weapon I guess
Any known changes to SA, HH and GS other than the special moves?
>>341572691
>tfw jumpstick is still the easy to use shitter weapon
>>341572691
>>341572775
GS has been THE overpowered shitter weapon for ages, and nobody called it out.
They will still call CB a meme weapon.
>>341572741
HH is now rewarded by actually hitting the monster with your notes.
Forgot the technical name for it, but if you hit a monster with every note in the song, and play it, it refreshes your previous song and plays the one you queued
>>341571097
It's not even energy blade. It's the removal of the instant AED from sword mode, and the inability to red-charge from sword mode.
I understand that Capcom did this to make the AED less spammable and overall less broken, but they already nerfed it considerably by making super-AED one explosion instead of multiple quakes. The removal of sword->AED mechanics just makes CB clunkier and less fun to use.
>>341571865
I also agree with this. According to mhg, flinches in this game are toned down considerably to prevent looping monsters through flinches and staggers. This also means that your super flashy special attack that takes forever to do and has huge recovery time more than likely won't even faze a monster. And that feels shitty.
Hopefully, massive damage to weakpoints will still result in insta-staggers/flinches, because GOTCHA BITCH is literally the most fun part of hunting with big weapons.

Cant we all just get along?
Its only a PVE game, teamwork guys, teamwork
Can anyone explain "Adept" mode for me? I don't get the counter thing.
>>341572859
I can only comment for 4U.
GS brings only one thing to a group, the big dick damage.
CB or IG on the other hand, brings damage and CC ( impact CB and on-demand mount by IG )
My favorite weapon is bow
>>341572914
Nice. I'm going to be so much credit to the team now after I'm done getting my ass kicked by the new monsters.
>>341572916
>make the AED less spammable
CB now spends most of the fight in axe mode spamming bushidodge->phial spin attack. Free trips for everyone.
>>341573019
Press the dodge button as soon as you're attacked, then you do a charging attack followup
Its not really a counterhit
Its more like a just-dodge with an attack that bridges the gap between the boss and you from the dodge roll
Honestly I feel like skipping this game but want to support monhun
everything in combat just feels off
Who /Lance/ here
>>341573156
Actually it's BEFORE you're attacked. It works a bit different than the regular rolls. If you do that at the very last moment like you usually should, you actually DON'T get i-frames with bushido style.
>>341573240
What other game is going to take up your time?
Theres nothing fun and actiony until the second Ni-OH demo comes out in august, and thats only for the ps4
>>341573342
You mean striker style, but thats just a weapon art that needs charging. it unlimited like adpet style. and i can activate the the counterdodge as soon as i press the dodge button when im attacked, it does give you leeway if you're late if thats what you're talking about
>>341573351
It's not like it's the only hunting game or the only one coming out soon as we are getting god eater on ps4
>>341573479
No, I mean bushido style, stop putting words in my mouth. I played MHX long enough to know what I'm talking about. Bushidodge iframes don't start at the very beginning of the animation, like the regular dodge. There's a tiny start-up window after the roll button press in which you can get hit. But with bushido you usually don't notice it, because you don't have to time your rolls nearly as precisely as without it.
I barely used it because the starting skills werent worth it.
Hows LS? anything else changed other than aura working like they did in 3U instead of dropping from red to zero?
>Carted once on Narga
Well, at least I killed this shit with Trance Slash like a cool guy.
Holy shit. I am so sorry, Narga hunters. I didn't know it would take that long if I was a cat. I promise I'll only go cat if we get a full room.
>>341572462

I'll give beggar faggots a chance to play the game, with a twist.

You'll have to guess the last two yourself noggers. Suck my cock
>>341574081
Cats require a very specific (boomerang-focused) build to be able to do any damage.
Otherwise you're not any more useful than an AI cat.
>>341574197
At least make it at riddle faggot, I'm not gonna check 100 rooms.I'm not gonna check them anyways since i can't join a single room. Fuck this shit 006-0612 error. It's still working with 4U no idea what's this demos problem
>>341574081
No big deal. I probably shouldn't have gone perfect guard Lance.
>can't poke poke poke hop repeat
>need to poke poke slow multi hit poke.
>no fucking counter.
>>341574313
I guess that's decent incentive to never go cat unless I just wanna dick around. Though the demo's entire purpose is dicking around so I guess that's something.
>>341574341
Haven't tried out lance yet, I heard adept Lance is godly if you can time it right.
>>341574341
These styles seem to fuck up effective play styles rather than give new just as good ones
>>341571865
Wow, the big flashy attacks that everyone who's already played the game said weren't a big deal turned out to not be such a big deal
Big fucking shocker
>>341574573
Bushido Bow and Hammer are objectively superior to guild.
SnS = New Hammer
Poor hammerfags can never catch a break.
>>341574573
Striker style is pretty basic.
>>341574476
The perfect guard counter is stupid powerful, it just takes some getting used to before you can get really effective with it
It's the same thing with CB, for all the cries of getting nerfed it's still quite strong once you adjust to the changes
>>341574573
On SnS I've found use for the Aerial style on high mobility mons.
Otherwise Guild seems best, Striker is like guild with higher DPS but no charge hit, but SnS charge hit on Guild style is important: its use allows you to infinitely combo and gives a free dodge. Why would I want to trade that for shorter combos, less mobility, some dmg+ and a dodge supermove? May as well stick with Guild.
That charge is not so useful to super finicky mobs like Narga so then I have a reason to just go Aerial and start dark-souls flipping all over the god damn fight.
>>341575481
They also almost halved all the phial attacks motion values.
CB is so fucking useless now
