Why doesn't any armor look like this since 4th generation started?
Capcom just keeps giving us the same armor set with a pointy closed helmet, thin legs with clawed feet, and giant pointy shoulders recolored to vaguely represent the monster you had to farm to make it.Monster Hunter Thread. Enjoying the demo?

Aura now degrades by tiers, if you lose red it will go down to yellow instead of disappearing completely. I think it also got better motion values in Gen, though I'm not sure.
Also it's able to get red aura in like 30 seconds if you play Adept, and there's a hunter art that locks your gauge for like two minutes.

LS wasn't buffed, it was regressed back to a shitty, annoying baby mode weapon again.
They should have improved on the 4U aura instead of ditching it entirely. It had some good potential to really enhance the weapon's playstyle and options.
If they'd buffed yellow from 10% to 15% that alone would have done a world of good, but they could have tried maybe doing something neat by giving Red a Critical Time of something like 15 seconds at the end where landing a finisher would double its usual damage and charge you up, such that when you're knocked out of Red at the end, it'd knock you down to white instead of nothing at all.I hope they go back to the 4U iteration in MH5 but copy/paste some of the Gen styles/arts into the LS's standard moveset. With a little ingenuity, just about everything they did to LS in Gen could probably transfer over just fine.
Hold R to consume Spirit on certain Spirit Combo moves. 25% to buff Finisher into Nothin' Personnel (minus ghost cuts), 25-75% to perform Full Moon Spirit 1 with up to three stages, indicated by flashes:
First Flash: Buffed Spirit 1 attack that skips to Spirit 3 after OR press A to do a Lesser Counter.
Second Flash: More Buffed Spirit 1 that skips to Spirit Finisher after OR press A to do a Greater Counter with a little more damage and able to combo into a Adept Spirit Finisher (the vertical one) if an attack is countered properly and you got spare Spirit left over.
Third Flash: Even More Buffed Spirit 1, can be held for as long as your stamina lasts (starts draining really fast once you hit the third flash), will combo directly into Nothin' Personnel OR can perform the Greater Counter from Second Flash. Holding R on Third Flash's Nothin' Personnel will add the ghost cuts in exchange for a wind-up time but no additional Spirit cost, great if you staggered or tripped a monster with the charged Spirit 1 slash.
>>343803747
It's not complete bullshit, it just needs some tweaking. I can deal with it just fine.
They need to do something about different shell types though. Make Longs have almost no heat loss from using Wyvernfire (so they can do it right away), Normals already have a really good heat build up rate thanks to full bursts, and Wides should lose less heat from WF heat-locking than Normals but more than Longs, yet get less heat gain from normal shells and more from charged shells than other shell types.
Or... something like that.
How is Hunting Horn this time around?
Any new songs?
>>343806934
>There's always that ONE faggot defending 4U LS in every thread
I wish someone would kill you.
>>343807785
Why is 4U in that sentence?
>>343807785
I've been defending it since its conception, because I care more about how it affects the weapon's playstyle in general than how easy it is or how good its speedkill times are.
I'm not going to let people just circlejerk about shitting on it, parroting what other people have told them without actually sitting down to give it any decent individual thought.
It was a good idea. It wasn't implemented as well as it could be, but ultimately how it affected how the weapon played was a step in the right direction.
>3U Aura
You need to do spirit combos literally all the fucking time forever, at least once a minute, for a damage boost that puts your damage-per-attack at lower than it was in fucking Freedom Unite.
>4U Aura
You have to do three spirit combos to get your damage back up, but you get occasional periods of two minutes free where you don't NEED to do full combos ALL THE TIME and on top of that have higher damage-per-attack than Freedom Unite ever had, plus it's easier than ever to actually get your aura up thanks to fade slash no longer killing spirit combos.
In terms of how the Longsword played, yeah, 4U was the best. Period. Its aura change suffered in kill times a little bit, but just barely.
Meanwhile Gen literally lets you regress all the way back to the rampant cancer that was Tri's LS thanks to an art, only without losing your aura entirely if you time out so it's even worse.
>>343807775
I dunno about new songs, but double notes let you play the current song and the last song you played at the same time. It's great for upkeep and actually staying in the fight, but the horn arts arent anything special
>>343807775
>HH users
I wish you guys weren't as rare as a fucking Pokemon shiny.
>>343801476
I'm surprised the bowguns do so horribly against Zinogre. Pierce ammo ate even apex Zin in 4U
>>343808826
The horn arts just aren't broken, is all.
Harmonize lets you play an enhanced song just fine even if the monster moves away or knocks you over before your attack lands.
Soul Orchestra is alright for solo, letting you play all your songs for you alone so you don't have to waste time setting up different attacks and using recital to play them.
The sonic smash isn't particularly noteworthy though, but it's important to note that the sonic blast actually is an attack with a decently-sized hitbox, not just a sonic bomb on an art like some people seem to be confused about.
>>343807775
It's better than 4U horn but still needs to put in more effort than any other weapon to do damage
Horn Maestro is no longer needed
>new songs
I wish, horn is long overdue for new notes. Finally make for than Attack Up horns useful
>>343809182
I've been told that it's apparently because later Zinogre Variant quests have two of them and they literally can't bring enough ammo to do it all the way through.
It's a consistent failure of ranged weapons, they just can't into multi-monster quests all that well.

Is there any preorder bonuses for MHGen? like any actual physical stuff other than a free theme? I'm going to buy some other stuff, so I'd like to see if there is any point preordering it while I'm there.
So do you guys hope they keep styles/arts permanently?
I mean this aside from what you think they'll actually do, I'm asking if you would LIKE it to stay.
I kinda do. I think it would be great with some more tweaking.
>>343810880
Adept needs balancing and almost all arts need balancing, but yes, it spices up the gameplay for me and I like experimenting with the different styles.
I think it benefits the game more than it hurts it.
>>343810880
I'd rather not keep styles, but I wouldn't mind if they stay in the form of armor skills or something. Losing out on parts of the weapon's moveset just makes me feel handicapped
Arts can stay if they get some tweaks
>>343810701
If you owned 4U you get a free baby tigrex armor and extra items so you don't need to farm as much when you start. Pre-order stuff isn't all that worth it.
>>343811067
Wrong image, here's the armor.
I like the demo but it's a pain since I can't map the camera to the bottom screen unless playing as a kitty cat as far as I know
in 4u that's what I did which changed my demo impressions for some weapons (guns) to be a lot better than expected

>>343811191

>>343811067
I'll just buy after release day then, it's not like there's any chance it'll sell out by the time I get there.
>>343811191
It also doesn't look worth it honestly.
>>343810880style switcher mod for MHX when
>>343810880
I'm gonna be honest about my thoughts with you.
They can barely balance 14 weapons as is, how the fuck are they going to balance 14 weapons plus three additional styles for each?
I want them to keep styles. Arts, as far as I'm concerned, can get merged into the basic / style movesets with a little tweaking to values instead of being super moves you need to charge. But I have serious doubts that they're going to do the right things that need doing in order to properly return the game to the classic MonHun hunting experience.
I wish there was a way to get the "Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate" text off my N3DS
the autistic side of me is going to get bugged when I play other MH games on this
>>343811453
>you are now aware that's fur, not brushed aluminum
>>343811412
I also think that they will be unable to correctly balance everything if they keep styles/arts in the next game.
That being said, for being a non-competitive game, I would actually be more ok with the game being slightly unbalanced with them than without.
You can do every quest in the game solo with any weapon and style combo, and honestly that's good enough for me. The game will never be completely balanced in terms of speed runs with every weapon either way.
Taking them away would feel like a step back to me.
>>343799583

>>343820905
Oh boy, here comes the evade extender meme again.
>>343821363
I want you to give me one reason why you shouldn't have evade extender on a weapon that stays mobile by rolling at monsters and stays aggressive by re-positioning with side steps.
>>343820905
quick draw is better, i hate skating around the monster when evading
>>343821616
Here's one, since you asked for one.
Sidestepping with evade extender will move you too far away from wherever you want to hit more often than not, often resulting in the monster turning or moving before you can get back to wherever the GOOD damage is. Also it's a poor excuse to stay in sword mode 24/7 when axe mode has enough reach and mobility to make up for the lack of damage until you switch back to sword.
I mean, with some monsters evade extender might be super helpful, but it's hardly a core skill like some people make it out to be. Certainly not anywhere near the level of Focus/Crit Draw on the Greatsword.
I guess it's valid in Gen though, since the game is built around using sword only 24/7 unlike 4U.
>>343806619
I know most people in my local mh group have been having connection errors out the ass since the demo went public.

>>343801476
Nice, maybe people will stop using bow because they think its OP. I hate scrubs giving my favorite weapon a bad name.
>>343809374
Then that's not a very good indication of weapon kill times if it precludes an entire class of weapons.

Styles, yes. Arts, maybe not.
I like how styles let you play weapons differently than the way you've always done it, but the the arts, I'm just not a huge fan. They've got some fun and flashy ones that are pretty enjoyable, but the way they range from nearly unusable dogshit to absolute gamebreaking cheese isn't that great, and I feel like moves that charge over time dont really fit with the flow of the game. They'd need to seriously rework them moving forward to win me over.
>>343824010

>>343820502
The only thing that intrigued me about GS styles is Aerial anyways but I don't want to give up ground charges. Striker is way too simple for me, it's just the moveset it had before Tri, and I don't want to give up my supercharge and supercharge followup.
>>343810880
I think styles should be more than just losing part of your moveset for a different dodge, like if the styles themselves were the hunter arts and included them as part of their movesets.
Weapon-specific styles replacing certain attacks or techniques with a move reminiscent of current hunting arts. Universal ones like Absolute Evasion can just remove attacks for a different dodge, though.
>>343797937
Even if it's bait, I do wish they would merge a bit more plate armor with monster parts.
And for the love of God make the good hbg decent looking. Running around with a gravious and molten tigger head as a weapon is tiring
Any tips for narga?
First game was 4U so I've never actually fought the bugger.
>>343827184
its tricky, but you can roll through a lot of its attacks
bring sonic bombs
>>343827184
Think of Narga as both Tigrex and Zinogre as one with Zamtrios charging attack.
can you siege mode after an adept dodge? I thought I did it once but maybe I just went into it normally
>>343827184
Like Rajang, dont set up traps while he is not fucking pissed, he will outsmart you and waste the trap.
Good thing is that there is no Lucent Narga on this game, FUCK THAT INVISIBLE ASSAMALGAMATION.
>>343827568
You can, I think, I don't remember the buttons. You can also roll out of siege, or roll back into siege after siegemode. Adept is so good for hbg
>>343808721
>Waaah I just want to mash!!!!!!!
That's all your crying amounts too. Instead of using the weapon in a state where you have to think and execute a sequence to maintain an uptime.
Seriously, kill yourself.
So why do pitfalls never work against narga? Is that just his thing? I never noticed in 3U.
>>343810880
Arts can stay as long as they round them out to all be useful and they don't betray what the weapons about(looking at you SA)
Styles are too hard to balance correctly and it leads to shit where people only use 1-2 at most for any given weapon.
Long story short, styles disrupt how the game actually plays, and arts if implemented well could be satisfying buttons to hit that add a bit of depth to everything.
If they keep both I'll be fine with it, they just need to put in some work to keep them. Series needs to evolve somehow, these aren't bad options.
>>343829129
I think his issue is, that compared to a lot of other weapons, there is a lot of overly complicated mechanics tacked on for 'balance' which you have to constantly be aware of with longsword that only get you on par with more braindead weapons.
>>343797937
MonHun needs vanity slots.
>>343828776
I figured it out, just have to wait until you power-reload then press X.
also at least guild style can roll into siege; was that always a thing? admittedly I didn't really play hbg
>>343829443
Pitfall traps only work when he is enraged.
You can provoke him into an enraged mode by throwing a sonic bomb.
>>343829443
He's a sneaky sausage. Like Rajang, only works when he's mad.
>use GS, SA & LBG in 4U
>tell myself to try new weapons out during this demo
>all i want to play is GS, SA & LBG
fug
Also, aerial SA is fucking underrated
>>343829549
Its not even that complicated, you have to work around the monster 3 times or so to get red spirit then focus on sneaking in a spirit 4 every minute or so.
None of it is overly complex or tacked on, its simply what the weapon is. 4U's system was the most arbitrary bullshit around. You worried about it until you hit red then ignored it completely for 2 minutes then started all over.
Now if you are good at it you can maintain a good buff at all times because it rewards forsight, and execution.
4U's system was just get to red then mash on them for 2 minutes, then do everything in your power to get to red again. Previous systems gave a lot more flexibility in how you played and rewarded you for taking those chances when they presented themself.

>Exhausted Narga

>Is more aggressive his enraged form.
>>343829129
But that's literally the opposite of what I've argued though, what?
The current iteration in Gen is literally mash central, and that is absolutely not what I want. If all I wanted to do was mash, then I'd be all for it since I can basically just Spirit Combo into infinity in Gen.
But way to boil down my argument to elements that weren't even present in it. Anything to not have to dedicate even an ounce of brain power to actually considering it as an argument with merit, huh?
Also, way to add in that kys meme. Way to stand out.
Would you like to try again?
>>343829549
Not really? That's not my reasoning behind it. I don't want to dumb down the weapon by any means. I want to add more to it. I view 3U's aura as being braindead (because it dictates what you need to do so strongly, instead of the MONSTER dictating what you need to do) and tedious (because you need to upkeep it so often).
In comparison, 4U's aura has a period of time where you actually can tailor what you do to the monster more strongly, instead of having to learn to balance two entirely different upkeeps (spirit AND aura) at all times AND figure out how to apply the demands of those two separate upkeeps to the demands of the monster.
I view 4U's aura as being more lenient to less skilled Longsword users while also being more freeing/less restraining to MORE skilled Longsword users, and furthermore the shifting back and forth between the aura upkeep period and the red aura damage period would make the weapon's flow feel a little less... stale. The shifting back and forth kept it interesting for me, instead of being locked in upkeep mode forever with a small handful of seconds here and there of freedom.
I think adding a "critical time" mechanic to 4U's aura where you can perform a finisher in the last 15 seconds of red to charge up so you'd drop down to white instead of nothing would improve it further.Maybe yellow, if the literal last second.
>>343829719
agreed if it wasnt 240p
>>343830650
Even at such low res its needed, since with the charm BS, you more than ever end up looking like a clown who was vomited on by a paint-store on acid.
>>343829892
I don't believe that to be the case. I think skilled longsword users learned to work around the limitations of needing to upkeep so often, but I don't think it was a good playstyle in terms of how it dictated how the weapon was used.
>then mash on them for 2 minutes
I don't think you really know anything about the longsword if you seriously think that's how it was done. In any high-skill 4U LS vid, they would use attacks of opportunity as the monster went by or predictive hits to get a stagger, or pokes to get in little hits here and there. You don't simply become free to spirit combo forever or something. The weapon simply doesn't work that way, and hasn't since Tri, until Generations came around.
>>343830578
4u is literally mash to red then do whatever you want for 2 minutes, it's literally the most brain-dead way to play
>>343830795
the stock cb set look ok i guess
>>343831286
using meme blade in g rank made me wish I had picked a huntress so badly
>>343831006
Except it's not, by any means. You use attacks of opportunity, especially thanks to the fade slash to spirit chain combo, to get your spirit up. Faster than in 3U, at that. You literally can't fucking mash as a mechanic of the weapon, since the spirit meter prohibits mashing except in cases where it is infinite (Gen).
In 3U, before the fade/spirit chain existed, you would be trying to get spirit combos off ALL THE FUCKING TIME. It was especially obnoxious on more agile monsters, like Brachydios, that loved to drag out your time with fucking nothing to show for it. Having a one minute period of time is too short to really free yourself up for the monster, especially then the reality is that you get more of a 30-second period of time, 45 if you're good at the weapon, before you have to start maintaining Red aura again, unless you're going for full combos before that which is extremely dependent on the situation. It's too short to do anything really good with, and if you do pretty much anything, like sharpening or healing or buffing up or following the monster to another area, you're going to lose that Red and drop down a level and have to upkeep it a fucking gain.
The two minutes of 4U is a lot less restraining that way. A lot more freeing. It isn't just a fucking excuse to mash mash mash, as you've implied.
>>343831626
dude its never to late to learn unless your playing x then fuck the meme blade.

I'm PRETTY SURE Dual Blades and Light Bowgun are Great Maccao (formerly Dos Maccau).

Is this your first monster hunter? There hasn't been any new armor that looks like that since 1st gen.
>>343833606
Not sure about how effective the weapons are but Malfestio is mid-low rnak while Tama is one of the final fights in low rank. Their armours, however, are debatable whether they're good or not.
>Malfestio gives Tenderizer and Negate Sleep
>Tama gives Halves Hunger, Thunder Res -10 and a new ability called Bubbles which applies a unique bubble status onto you after evading which improves your dodges.
>High rank Malfestio gives Perception and High Rank Tama removes TR-10 and gives another new skill called Predicament which increases your attack if you're effected by a status aliment.
Are they ever gonna make Stun less infuriating?
>Lasts forever unless you mash buttons
>Mashing buttons means you'll probably accidentally do something you dont want to when the monster is right on top of you
>>343835134
Admittedly 4U wasn't the best it could be, it's just that I view it as a step in the right direction. Tweak white to 10% and yellow to 15%, then add the critical time mechanic and it'd be a lot less punishing, that way the damage falloff can be mitigated with skill/premeditation/timing, and having to go back up through lesser auras doesn't feel as painful because they're more potent.
Also if they tweaked the aura graphic so that it sort of decreases in a loop around the spirit gauge rather than decreasing as a line behind it, so you could get a much more accurate read on how much time you have left, that'd be cool too.
>>343835370
???
Just spin your pads in circles. Rubbing your clit like mad in conjunction with the circle pad will do the job.
>>343835370
They made it more obvious when your stun is going to wear off.
>>343835246
>and gives another new skill called Predicament which increases your attack if you're effected by a status aliment.
Do Frenzy, Bubbles, or HH statuses count?
If so I will never lose this boner.
>>343810880
I don't care much about styles per se but I really hope they keep the adept dodge for Hammer. In 4U hammer just wasn't viable between its short reach, its semi long attack frames, and the fact that areas were divided up into even smaller areas and hammer didn't have any sort of defense. A Tigrex could get you into a corner and keep you there because it took to long to climb up or even jump down from the ledge and to go the other way would be going right into the Tigrex's hitboxes.
>>343836120
Phoenix Recovery (a universal art) seems to count buffs when calculating what it should remove and how much healing it should give you, so maybe?
>>343836120
Couldn't find any info if frenzy or HH buffs activate it but people say that Bubbles work with the skill.
>>343835565
> Tweak white to 10% and yellow to 15%
Literally giving people cause to stay in yellow as long as possible, like they did in Tri, which is clearly against the point of the mechanic
>>343836120
Bubbles does count as status. There's a Variant Hermitaur armor that gives Bubbles and Predicament.
>>343836575
Red is still a 30% bonus, you butt, so skilled players would seek it and with the critical time mechanic there'd be less reason to not seek red. And is there really something wrong with someone deciding to prolong their bonus rather than having to deal with upkeep? I mean it's clearly not optimum but it's a way to learn the weapon and the monster.
Also, what people did in Tri was spam spirit combos forever because you had infinite spirit AND you'd refresh red for as long as you could pull it off.
You literally had rooms of ananta boneblades and wyvern blade flame constantly paralyzing Gigginox into infinity with never ending spirit combos from four players because they literally could not and would not stop spirit comboing.
is adept the definite way of playing LBG now? I just wanted to go guild style and elementally gun things
>>343837573
Nah. The best Garuga LBG time, for instance, is Striker.
My R button is driving me insane. I have this urge to take it apart to remove whatever the fuck is blocking it but I don't have the right tools to do it.
I just want to play without worrying that I won't be able to sprint when the R button decides to fuck me up.
>>343839753
Rebind ZR to mimic the R button.

>>343846872
WHERE THE FUCK IS GIGGINOX
is there an influx is new people or something? I've run into a lot of people who don't bother to get themselves out of stun and/or don't use items.
Had a SnS user stay stunned until it naturally wore off, then re-engaged the narga whilst at 20%~ health. He got carted almost immediately. I can't even imagine this is a new player thing, how would you not try to do ANYTHING while stunned?
>>343847345
Probably. Every French player I've played with has fucked up their mount. I'm not sure if it is because they are French or new though.
>>343847345
There's obviously a lot of new people, it's a free demo.
They might've been distracted or it might've been the first time it happened so they didn't know what it was.
For the running off to their death thing, I'm pretty sure that plenty of new people don't understand how the item selection works and think that they have no items.
>>343847837
Oh, i didn't even mention how often people attack the monster while it's being mounted.
>>343847948
Nigga they changed mounting mechanics. You're supposed to attack it now. It doesn't do damage but it helps the mounter bring it down faster.
>>343847948
That has been changed. Attacking helps build the gauge now.
>>343847345
I ran into a SnS who never healed and basically never attacked the owl since he just pussy'd out to the other side of the map.
I couldn't leave my CB nigga who was actually doing work alone, so I stuck around until we kicked the owl's ass.
>>343797937
Why do you think I stopped playing?
Because there's no more armor like pic related.
>>343848068
>>343847948
>>343848043
AND attacking a monster as it's being mounted builds arts faster.
>>343848148
You can make pic related though.
>>343848365
Only in Freedom Unite.
>>343848446
Ceanataur is in Gen, and I literally made that armour in 4U from traded parts.
>>343797937
what would fur on a fucking sword even do
like whats the point
>>343848772
To keep the blade warm. What else would it be for?
>>343848772
absorbs the blood to keep the handle from getting slippery
>>343848772
Keeps it from getting cold.
>>343848043
>>343848068
I had no fucking clue. How'd people find that one out?
>>343848772
so you can snuggle it when you're cold
>>343848867
They talked about it a lot on streams, also manual, also in-game instructions.
>>343833606
You can always just upgrade armor. And in MHGen, you can actually just keep leveling up starting weapons so they can (sorta) compete with other maxed out weapons.
>>343851369
Does that mean I can now use the twin chainsaws without turning them into "notFUCKINGchainsaws"?
Sign me up.
>>343853589
Yeah, they do have the golem's saws though which were the upgraded chainsaws from third gen (and are still in fact chainsaws)
>>343851369
>>343853589
>>343853973
>viable chainsaw dual blades
Holy shit, fucking finally. I didn't even want them to be rank 10 top tier weapons, just perfectly usable in end game.
>>343854138
>viable
Well
"viable"
They can kill things but it'll be faster with other weapons.
>>343810880
Styles are interesting, though I think they should be further expanded/tweaked, like having completely different weapon animations instead of missing one or the other.
Aerial weapons that just take a signature attack and move it into aerial are eh, especially when they finish on the ground anyways like Switchaxe and Longsword. Aerial switchaxe should move to a super fast discharge that detonates in midair instead of just doing the discharge animation which continues and finishes after you land back on the ground.
>>343854609
Obviously, but I just want to be able to kill monsters without taking 30 minutes because of low damage.
>>343854725
It could even blast you back a little like the gunlance's mid-air shell does, so you can dodge attacks on the ground

>yfw the hammer has pretty much the best implementation of styles in the game
Aerial swaps the superpound for a buffed upswing and has THREE options for aerial attacks.
Striker not only has natural focus but the third slam apparently ain't too shabby and the superpound has been buffed.
And for Adept, that whole strong charge is just rad as hell, and is one of the few adept maneuvers that can be held and moved around until the right time.
Meanwhile the Hunting Horn has some of the worst styles in the entire game.

What's the deal with "new regulations" or something similar? I accept but it gives me an error. Do I have to update?
>>343801476
>That time with DB (striker)
>(striker) Dual Blades has no meter
What the fuck?
>>343797937
I suppose modern MH armors do kinda look more akin to monster cosplay than armors with monster parts attached
>>343857229
probably relied on dash juices so they could stay in demon mode. The lack of a meter becomes moot in that case.
Well I think that went pretty well. Sorry about the dragon blast near the end.
>>343856562
You guys sure weren't kidding when you said that mounting takes a lot more hits now.
Granted, I missed at least half of my aerial swings, but still.
That was honestly faster than I thought it'd be though. Good hunt.
>tfw I will never understand Gunlance.
I can use almost every weapon except fucking Gunlance.
I will learn tho. Good hunt guys.
>>343797937
It does though
LR is realistic armor + monster bits
HR is monster armor + realistic bits
G rank is anime tier faggotry + monster bits
Which is why iv bitched for years that LR and HR need the ability to be upgraded to G rank tier.
Honestly armor should just give a single unique to that set bonus, like how we got from Steves weapons in 4U, and skills as they exist now should come entirely from gem slotting.
>>343810880
Hell fucking no.
Its a nice spin off, it has absolutely no right to stay in the main series.

Na, it doesnt. The hitbox for it I swear is smaller than 4U.
Just position yourself better, you have a hop with aerial, use it.
>>343859070
Possibly. Though you only have yourself to blame because I told everyone in every thread that the WiiU wouldn't get any MH and you needed a 3DS for MH and everyone laughed at me and was like >implying MH4 won't be on the WiiU and Vita and PS4. Nigger don't question me about MH, I know my shit.

cat. and don't be that shitter who leaves the hunt because he thinks the cat is absolutely terrible.
>>343858617
Aw. Almost! Two bumbling fools wasn't quite enough. At least we got him limping.
But is it just me or was that stylefun?
>>343861517
It was kind of amusing but as a lance user can't say I was too keen on it. Regular lancing is fun as hell. I need to see if I can git gud with adept lance.
Bat cats.
>>343861757
As a Lance main the lack of a backstep was totally fucking me up to the point where I wouldn't be able to do any serious hunts like that. But I really really loved the jumping charge finisher from 4U and only Aerial has that in Gen.
I also can't deal with the change to the third poke in everything but Striker. I'm used to being the most mobile brick in the world, always able to dodge at a second's notice.
None of the styles have all the tools as I'm used to in 4U and that kinda stings.
>>343862424
Apparently the new ending triple poke is godly for damage and elemnt. I'll try my best to adjust to it but it's gonna be rough not being able to evade shit once I commit to a last poke.
