What would you do to improve Monster Hunter?
>>340752401
Fashion slots.
>>340752401
Remove it from shitty handhelds and make a good game instead of a CoD rehash for chinks
>>340752401
i dont know anymore, im sick of capcom milking their franchises to death, games feel old way too fast even with the minor changes, they need to reboot the movesets and monster attacks so it doesnt feel like you are playing the same game for the 10th time.
Put it on Vita.
>>340752498
Fashion slots are bad. Coming from a MH and WoW player.
>>340752401
publish it on STEAM.
I've been playing MHO recently and although the weapon controls and monsters are a step down there are a lot of changes that help convenience.
The big one is the inclusion of variations on a quest instead of simply having a separate one that goes on for more than just changing difficulty
It would be nice to include this in mainline but adjust it a bit. Like the option to choose, for example, a Kut Ku capture or a Kut Ku hunt from the same quest.
It would also be nice to simply remove high and g rank quests to add this feature since it's essentially meaningless
Put it on something with a good control scheme for the LOVE OF GOD FUCK
Add a hp bar for monsters
>>340752401
Put it back on console, and steam while we're at it. A better resolution, and more hardware to work with would do wonders for the series again. Focus on big additions instead of "This is the one new gimmick of the game!" style of iteration.
put it on PC or PS4
Bring mainline to modern hardware. The latest MH that's coming out isn't even running at 60fps.
Cut out all the levels that aren't bossfights, reduce the amount of farming required to make sets
home console
less loading screens
whip capcom until they stop being lazy and come up with some new shit instead of reskinning the same 5 monsters ad nauseam
>>340752401
Put on a real fucking console or PC. Fuck this handheld 240p bullshit.
bigger resolution
MUH REAL SYSTEM
better hitboxes and more evasive moves for things that arent ds or lance
Bring back the ability to skip the tutorial. Why they removed this since FU and made it more intrusive than ever is disgusting. "Guild tradition" doesn't stand when "guild tradition" was completely avoidable in MHG and MH2
>>340752617
Fashion slots are good. Coming from good taste.
Put it on a console or PC that isn't fucking 240p
this thread is fucking awful
what about gameplay improvements you autists. not just
>hurr hurr put it on my system of choice
Remove gen 1 monsters or include all monsters so far instead of having to decide between gen 1 and their improved gen 3 versions
>>340753453
Basic gameplay is fucking good, I can't see how to improve on it.
Especially MH4, that game has the perfect mix of tedium and quality of life, while having a rock solid combat system.
Put it on PS4/PC or even the fucking Wii U
The game is trash on 3DS
>>340752401
new engine and update the clunky movement
>>340752401
how the fuck do you make an anniversary game and not include every fucking monster
>>340753453
>wanting to play a game where you hunt big, cool monsters on a screen with enough resolution to see the little details isn't an improvement
Fuck off.
>>340752617
Fashion slots are good, coming from an MH and GW2 player
>>340752906
>levels
>bosses
>monster hunter
It's worse than saying "toon," I swear
Let me spend fuckign absurd amounts of armor stones to make LR/HR armor as strong as GRank armor.
I hate most GRank sets.
Put it on a system that has an actual screen. Or at least cross-play with something else.
Also let me hold O/A to keep gathering.
>>340753863
Monster Hunter has both levels and bosses.
Get it the fuck off of handhelds. They've been holding the series back for years.
Remove key gathering quests. We already have harvest tours.
Add more Arena equipment. Let people who want retard MMO loot grinding systems spend hundreds of hours farming Rathalos, and let people who are actually good at the game earn Arena coins to make something other than Black Belt equipment.
Remove Ancestral Steppe forever.
Put the SnS sword combo on X, and the shield combo on A. There is no reason why both weapons should have attacks on both buttons.
Give people a reason to pick switch axe ever. It's just a gimped CB now.
That's pretty much it.
>>340753453
Not much else to fix. They should gas gen 1 monsters, buff GL, removing mounting, add a weapon that doesn't go full animu, etc. but the most pressing concern is modernizing the series. There wont be any real cool improvements until we it happens.
>>340753945
>Give people a reason to pick switch axe ever. It's just a gimped CB now.
SA is better than CB in Generations.
>>340753930
Monster Hunter has quests and monsters.
>"take it off 3ds"
never ever
>>340753945
>4U has G-Rank Arena
>No G-Rank Black Belt set
how did they even screw up that badly
>>340752498
nah, ruins the feeling of being molded by the monsters you hunt, makes your skills feel artificial and removes the style component
>>340754084
Monster Hunter has levels, bosses and autistic pedantic fans.
>>340753945
>Get it the fuck off of handhelds. They've been holding the series back for years.
how?
zoom the camera out just a bit
never put swimming in ever again
don't instantly teleport me out of a zone when I touch the boundary, let me confirm
put more information in the monster books so I don't have to look at the MH wiki for everything...I really do try to only use the in-game info but I would really like to be able to learn what a monster's weakness is just from doing research in-game
>>340754097
I'm not even a platform-warring faggot but I don't understand why anyone wouldn't want MonHun to get off handhelds. There's just so much more you could do with the game from a visual perspective with significantly higher resolution and computing power.
>>340754047
It's not better, it's absolutely fucking broken. With the right HA combos and Striker style, you can stay in sword mode indefinitely, with damage buffs active all the while.
>>340754284
>don't instantly teleport me out of a zone when I touch the boundary, let me confirm
kill yourself
>>340753698
MUH GRAFIX
>>340754278
Shit graphics
>>340754328
>you can stay in sword mode indefinitely, with damage buffs active all the while
Yeah I know all that, that's why I said it was better, I didn't say it was balanced.
They nerfed the fuck out of CB to be honest, I don't see many people playing it anymore.
>>340752401
put it on anything besides a nintendo console.
I would buy a vita if it had a new monster hunter on it.
>>340754278
30fps, for one.
>>340754304
Of course I want it on a console already, but it's quite literally a "never ever" situation because hand helds are king in Japan.
>>340753905
Yeah but then you have low rank armor with g rank defense and low rank skills. Unless you want it to gradually get better in that department as well.
>>340754443
>muh graphics
>>340754478
Legitimate reason. Isn't it 60 or close to it on New 3DS though?
>>340754461
>he bought a vita
LMAO
>>340753568
This man gets it.
>>340753756
>>340753197
>>340752617
>>340752498
Compromise.
You can transmog equipment within its own family. Make overforged low or high rank equipment look like g-rank equipment if you prefer its skill points, make g-rank equipment look like low or high rank equipment if you don't like the overdesigned look.
Bring back relic equipment as an option to transmog to alternative designs within the same monster armour family, both for unique equipment looks and for older designs from prior entries in the series.
>>340754457
They nerfed it, but it's not useless. I like to run that Phial increasing HA and use that Laser HA that scales on the number if phials filled. Instant stagger on almost everything i've hit it with.
>>340754478
MH has always been like 30-40FPS no matter the console faggot
>>340754557
>Unless you want it to gradually get better in that department as well.
I don't really care, I've got hundreds of hours in MH, I don't need skills to play proficiently. I'd use my buffed LR gear for single player and switch to an ugly GRank set for online.
I think more thought should have been put into the Urgents.
For example, in X when the Ferocious Monster mechanic is introduced you aren't forced to fight them period, instead the urgent is a Seregios.
When Deviants are introduced you aren't forced to fight one.
If it was my call, the true urgent into high rank would have been Crimson Arzuros level 1 after repelling Osuto and the Urgent into HR7 would have been an Outraged Seregios.
4 also pulls this by doing things like Black Gravios as an urgent which makes little to no sense since Pink Rathian already covered an urgent that is a subspecies.
>>340752401
Make it a PC exclusive.
BAM, it's now a good game with amazing graphics, amazing online and potential for growth.
>>340752401
Stop making them and make Dragon's Dogma 2 instead.
>>340754357
>>340754617
>not wanting 240p with today's technology means you're a graphix whore
Kill yourself.
>>340754617
MHX is locked 30fps literally because of MUH GRAPHICS. It still looks like shit but the producers thought they should rice the visuals up with lens flare and tacky particles.
>>340754623
Why the fuck is Gigginox STILL not back in favor of the fucking KHEZU?
>>340753093
MH5 is probably gonna be an NX launch title in Japan, or at least announced alongside the NX for very close release to NX launch.
>>340754735
>Everyone pirates it and hacks
>Series dies
>>340754759
You're a graphics whore, stop whining.
>>340753945
>all the SA stuff in Generations is stuff for sword mode
Just give me a reason to use the axe mode. Maybe make it so that attacking a monster in axe mode "charges" the phial to make it more potent.
>>340754032
>add a weapon that doesn't go full animu
GS and LS have existed since the beginning, friend.
>>340754735
go play frontier, and try not to drag doqn mainline with it
>>340754712
That's why we want it on better hardware, you dumbshit
>>340754794
Same reason we'll never get swimming back, because people have shit taste and no skill.
>>340754884
>Just give me a reason to use the axe mode
No, Capcom realized SA's axe mode was a mistake that no one uses, so they gave people the ability to just stay in sword mode forever.
They'll never make axe mode worthwhile.
>>340754926
>frontier
you mean that game which is japan-only, has microtransactions and 1/1000000 drop rates?
do egg quests exist in still? they are in mh4u, and they should have stopped being a thing in the second game.
Home console or PC release. I'm sick of 300p and hand cramp due to the 3DS.
I have no idea how I put so many hours in Freedom Unite since the PSP hand an even lower res screen and more retarded control scheme
Necessary changes:
>Console/PC only release, no mobile downgrade
>Good fps
>Accurate hitboxes
Would be nice to see:
>Better arena design
>Aerial combat
Honestly not that much needs to be done to make it a great franchise. Just keep it off these shitty handhelds.
No more Apex.
Let me color my armor. I just want a black Nibelsnarf set. Capcom plz.
Sand Barrioth armor comes back..
Gigginox can stay go. At least Khezu doesn't shit on itself.
>>340755021
>and 1/1000000 drop rates?
That shit gets the Nips rock hard though.
>>340755021
did i stutter?
>>340754284
sorry I don't like getting catapulted ten miles away because the monster knocked me into a corner
it doesn't make any sense
I just want some HD Monhun, tired of playing on the 3DS. I'm never "on the go" so what's the point.
>>340755098
The psp actually had a higher res than the 3ds
>psp = 480 x 272 pixels
>new 3ds/old 3ds = 400 x 240 pixels
A easy mode.
>>340753158
They did this in MHX/G by making tutorial quests available but optional.
>>340755346
For you.
>>340754304
I don't care if it had PS2 graphics. I just want it at a decent resolution.
>>340755346
That's LR and HR, friend.
>>340754884
Make Switch Axe a weapon based on combo finishers from Axe Mode
Make the Gauge work in reverse
4U went in the right direction by giving the new finisher but didn't expand on it enough
>>340755372
I'm playing the game right now. No they didn't. In previous titles you could completely skip 1 star and go straight to low-tier monsters. As stated before, this was removed in MHFU onwards
Didn't Tri have HR restrictions in the lobbies? I want that back. I like making new characters and hate when HR:99999999 joins a room full of HR:5s. I don't want the game to be a fucking cakewalk.
Put it on PS4 or any other handheld besides the eyeraping weak 3DS
>>340752401
platform with better controls
style points
maybe fashion
2 or 3 balance patches
more level or basin shaped zones - coming from MH4U
fewer attacks that are garbage - cblade up-swing
monster stats available in game
more secrets and/or unlockables
NO RANDOMLY CYCLING QUESTS
>>340755000
The only reason no one uses axe mode is because sword mode has gotten all the benefits ever since the beginning. 4 has been the closest to making axe mode worthwhile in forever.
>>340754884
That's an idea I've never thought of. To be honest I was always sort of in love with the idea of the phial coming in four quarters rather than two halves, and Axe Mode getting "burst charges" that let you boost a move by either:
1) holding the button down as you queue in the next move
2) holding the R button causing something to switch open in the middle of any animation and triggering the next attack while open to be a burst attack
Burst moves would be like, the forward axe lunge turning into a real distance-closer, moving you forward about a roll's distance with more damage to boot, or the side chop turning into a roundswing, or the overhead chop becoming a high-speed guillotine cleave, or the upswing becoming a jumping upswing that reaches super high and can be combo into an enhanced overhead chop that does mounting damage, and each burst would eat a quarter of the phial.
Not even joking, put it on Vita. Have a 3ds with 3U and 4U, played thousands of hours on both. I recently got FU on PSN, and I can sincerely say that MH plays waaay better on Vita.
PS4/Xbox/PC only release
No chopping the game up into multiple versions
Yian Garuga
2+ years dev time.
Fuck this handheld aids, capcom is shitting out monster hunter games like they are fucking CoD and the games run and look even worse than P3rd.
You don't even have to fix anything gameplay related, just stop hamstringing the games.
>>340754936
>hur hur like PC amirite
>>340754207
Nobody would stop you from dressing like a clown.
>>340754032
>add a weapon that doesn't go full animu
nigga, MH is shonen as fuck
Optional download play style online mode, where I can join an online quest and temporarily use another player's stored equipment.
Don't want to grind for hours, just want to occasionally play fun MH co-op.
>>340754807
Wasn't 4 released on the WiiU in Japan? I wouldn't hope for a home console release for 5 in the west.
>>340755868
That would be cool to help convince people to buy it. But people who only occasionally play usual suck ass and will triple-cart.
>>340755978
No, it wasn't. Only 3U got a WiiU port.
Also the NX is very likely to either be:
1) Two systems, a console hooked to your television a handheld you can take wherever, with cartridges being swappable between the two
2) A console-strength handheld with the ability to stream to the TV.
>>340752401
Put it in a home console again. Wii U, PS4, even XBone, I don´t care, I just don't like the 3ds controls.
I don't care about graphics either so they can stretch the fuck out of it and I'll still play it.
>Implying Capcom has money to make a console/PC MH
Guys plz
>>340756017
Yeah, they could give some option to disable it when you're hosting a quest, perhaps.
It just gets so tiring having to play through so much shit you've already done countless times to get to the new stuff in these games. I don't have the time for that shit, I just want to hunt monsters with people.
>>340756191
>implying they don't
MH is their biggest cash cow. The money they've saved on barely changing the assets or the engine over the years has to be fucking immense. There's no way they can't spend some of it to make a new engine with higher quality visuals when they move to the NX.
>>340756191
Oh we very sorry, we orny maku most popurar handherd series in japan, we no havu money maku decent gamu for once.
prs understand.
>>340756321
20 years from now mainline MH will still look and play exactly the same.
Come to terms with it.
Make it so you can clip through certain monster parts with rolls.
>>340756409
MH is the new Pokemon
>>340756249
I don't like the way that everything in MHO that isn't fur looks like oily clay. It's a huge aesthetic turn-off for me.
>>340756274
I know how you feel. Luckily I enjoy the combat a lot in the series so the grind isn't as bad. That's probably the same for most people.
>>340752401
Put it on the Wii U
Fashion slots, whats the point of all these nice collab items when they're ALWAYS garbage by the time you can actually get them
Stop the shared 3 cart game over bullshit. It only enables griefing, and punishes good players. Instead, in multiplayer you only get 2 carts, and if you use them up, you get severely reduced rewards, if everyone uses up their 2 carts, its quest failed and no one gets anything.
Make those tutorial quests optional. No one wants to do quests to cook 1 steak or gather herbs.
Increase your security, no one wants another custom guild quest/powersave fiasco.
Crack down hard on cheaters.
>>340756461
No, pokemon has recently made a drastic leap in the way their game looks, something MH won't ever do.
>>340752401
Reduce the amount of grinding.
>>340752401
Make it multiplatform. I want to play on a TV/monitor not a crappy Nokia screen with a proper controller.
>Overhall the monsters with more intuition, giving them new movements to reflect their cunning. For example, a monster actually visually tracks you as you run around, instead of using a canned move to face where you are/where, then using another canned move to attack in the direction you are/where.
>give them more personality. Just as Zinogre taunt walks you, displaying a challenge, monsters should act in a way unique to their species. Some rage, some calculate, and some come at you with a bitter hatred
>adjust and address gameplay mechanics and issues like monsters wall sliding, buffing attacks in the loading screen, ect. Also make player mechanics logically forgiving, like letting a player sharpen a weapon while it's drawn.
>randomize regular map areas, while also rewarding players for tracking and stalking as a hunter should. I want to have a smooth transition into areas I've never been to before, studying a monster before I even reach it, while having to use my cunning to track it down in the first place. I want to be rewarded for acting as a hinter should, not just running to area X on map X for the 57th time.
>Allow armor upgrades through ranks, at a bit of a discount compared to making them from scratch. Also have rare drop rates increase the more often you hunt a monster, then reset once you acquire them.
>Monsters should have relatively flat difficulty, not scaling with how far you are in a rank or the story. Have the player start almost entirely with low class monsters, only treating them to higher class monsters under special conditions. My first kill of the King of the fucking Skies should be at least high rank, with encouters before that being situational, such as repelling it, baiting it, or just outright escaping it. Fighting incredible, massive and intimidating monsters often has little excitement to it since I probably already killed it, when for whatever reason it was only marginally harder than the MH version of a wombat.
>>340756478
Have fun in MHX volcano then
>>340754623
I like gravios and diablos
>>340755139
Isn't armor coloring a thing? Granted for some armor, the color choices don't mean shit and change very little.
>>340756478
It's called shit art design. MHO is loaded with generic Cryengine assets, many of the monsters look out of place compared to the areas because of it
>>340754084
HR are levels that you need to reach to fight a boss monster to reach the next tier of quests.
Put it on another platform
Release out of the 3DS.
Monsters not just sponges.
>>340756656
God shit I really hate the Hollow. It could have been so cool and they really messed it up.
It's really the worst of the original MH areas.
>>340756249
Does damage only happen when the number pops up or is it as soon as contact is made?
>>340752401
Major graphical up heave
Giving the player the option to switch between Classic Controls (the stiff as fuck controls) or Smooth Controls (way more loose controls)
Total re-design of the bow weapon controls
Climbing onto monsters
At lease 8 to 9 unique combos per melee weapons
Visible slice damage to monsters with bleeding (option to turn off blood). I wanna see gaping wounds
Ability to tame monsters you capture and use them alongside you. They will die if you fail to heal them during or after combat
A way better fucking online system. 3 Ultimate's online lobby was ass
Uh...
Toukiden 2 western release when?
>>340752401
Either add in more monsters that make use or mud and snow or similar effects, or remove the Negate Snow/Mud buff altogether from hunting horns.
>>340755681
I love the 3DS to death and even I think they should've done that instead.
Also for those that want better visuals or a release on current consoles; keep in mind that Tri was originally a PS3 game before getting downgraded into a Wii game. Let's face it, Capcom doesn't want to pour that kind of money into Monster Hunter and would rather it just coast on what's cheapest to develop for.
Bring it to consoles and PC
There
Done
MH is saved
>>340756628
Forgot to mention
>guild HALLS should be reflective of their name, where many (a dozen?) players can be in a single hall, choosing amongst themselves who they want to take for a four man quest. Also add daily special quests, hopefully extremely difficult ones for all ranks to encourage players to connect with other players that they sync well with.
>>340756478
MHXs volcano (which is really MH2s but revamped)reeks of this. Everything looks like fucking clay
>>340756321
MH is pretty much the only thing going well for Capcom for the last... 5 years?
>>340756916
I mean old volcano they brought back in MHX. The lighting is so bad the floor looks like oily clay.
>>340756936
That's what you call lag.
>>340757036
Thissss, I want a hub with a bunch of players in it. I remember going into Tri's online mode thinking I would see a bunch of people. Instead it was just an empty area with invisible people talking to each other.
PS4 and Steam exclusive. Nintendo just needs to god damn die if this entire franchise is just gonna keep being released on the stupid handheld.
make it multiplat
i hate playing this on 3DS, it wasn't meant for games like these
>>340756681
That's monoblos you faggot, also you have horrible taste if you think Gravious is good.
>>340756936
Same reason that Blango is slower and moves sloppier than MH2 Blangoit's a beta :^)
>>340757314
ur a beta
>>340757036
>guild HALLS should be reflective of their name, where many (a dozen?) players can be in a single hall, choosing amongst themselves who they want to take for a four man quest.
Fucking this. The CGI cutscenes make pubs look so cool but when you actually go to one its boring as fuck
>>340752401
put it on pc and console
it would make so much more money
>>340756804
Exactly, I want them to expand on that so I can color everyhing. As it is, unless we get a Nibelsbarf variant I'm boned.
Not to mention Nibel X was useless in 4 anyway.
>>340756681
>i like gravios
the fuck is wrong with you
>>340752401
Every reiterating of monster hunter strays from the original feeling of a man and a monster and the thrill of the hunt.
>>340757429
It really wouldn't
Their main market is Japan
No one in Japan buys consoles. Everyone (this isn't even a jap thing) pirates PC games. The 3DS has sold over 20 million units over there
>>340757313
I didn't say gravy was good, just that I like him, especially the black version. Reminds me of Psycho Gundam when I fight it.
And there is practically no difference between monoblos and diablos anyway
>>340756569
>pokemon has recently made a drastic leap in the way their game looks
lol
Daily reminder
Anyone know what the mounting is like in MHX? I really hope it isn't as easy to abuse as it was in MH4U by the JE SUIS MONTEs.
>>340757779
>LE EVERYONE LE PIRATES PC GAMES XDDDD
Kill yourself.
I'd like to see bigger focus on the tracking aspect of hunting, with randomly generated clues and whatnot.
I'd also like to see personality differences within species, this would be harder to implement but I think it'd make each fight more engaging overall. For instance, an aggressive/territorial Rathalos would come and attack you if you are within a 1 area radius of their starting area, or a cowardly/skittish monster flees earlier and more often than a standard monster. An angry monster goes into rage mode more often, etc.
Both of these seems like pretty feasible.
Some actual sneaking mechanics for monsters that aren't asleep. Crouch walking up to an unsuspecting monster to make a surprise attack or get it trapped would be nice.
>>340752756
casual detected
>>340758150
> Monster Hunter isn't slow enough
>>340757898
MH stories?
>>340758023
They'd have to up drop-rates if you had to actually hunt monsters. Its already an autism grind simulator at a certain point, adding a time-sink onto an already large time-sink would only make the game feel like shit.
Let me keep an armor's HR appearance when making G-rank armor. I want to be a super poison mage with good skills and without fainting in one hit.
>>340754032
>modernizing the series
anon Monster Hunter takes place in the post apocalypse hense the existence of Relic weapons and Dragon element. also the fluff lore that is in the jap guides that are kinda sorta canonical.

No, another title. Spinoffs don't sell even close to a million.

>>340758343
There's almost no point to crouch walking in the game besides gathering faster. Monsters may as well instantly know where you are the second you load up into the area where it's at.
>>340757903
It's the same, but it takes longer to mount after each time than in MH4U.
>>340757964
It still wouldn't do well enough to justify them upping the production costs that high so they can have a measly 300,000 owners. MH in Japan on 3DS literally sells that much and more in a day

I'd like to see more options and customization added to weapon movesets instead of what Frontier and Gen do which is lock you to a single, standard moveset

We need more monsters in species categories that have only one. Zinogre has been around for six years and it's still the only Fanged Wyvern along with its subspecies. So let's see more of those, leviathan, unique Bird Wyvern like Qurupeco, and the two new species they added in with 4. Also add up the number of Carapeceon monsters since we haven't had any new ones since 2nd generation. Basically stop adding in Flying Wyvern, we have plenty enough already.
>>340758150
I'd like something similar to this, but I want the monsters to act more like monsters, or animals as it were. Like when Rhenoplos or Apceros are in the same area as a Deviljho, I want to see the latter chasing after the former at some points and not have everything focus in on you and only you. Or even if two big monsters are in the same area and they're mortal enemies, it'd be cool to see them turn their attention away from you to swing at the rival monster a couple times.

That's why the games have farms/wycoon so you can harvest materials enmasse. Not to mention you start off with gear that speeds up the animation to a second tops.
>Why are you lying?
Because those quests only take about 2-3 minutes and most people that have brains just do the ones that are needed to unlock the next tier?
>If you think the game is challenging 10 hours in you must be a casual. It takes way longer to get to anything good.
You do realize what you tried to twist what I was saying and what I actually said directly contradicts that right? If implied that being at beginner quests at the 10 hour mark was bed then of course I don't think the game's remotely challenging at that point.

Probably just increase the drop rate for a monster's rare materials up to a certain point. Say a pallium starts out at 2% but steadily increases up to maybe 10% or 15% max. Not unreasonable but still make it better than having to pray to RNG gods.

Japan only plays the 3DS. In the West the Wii U is dying and it would be really expensive to port to PS4 or XB1 plus they would lose their Nintendobux that Nintendo is obviously shelling out to keep it exclusive to them. I don't like that it's only 3DS, but I understand why.

>>340759241
>kill 50 rathian
You're doing it wrong. Specific quests offer mantles or rubies or whatever as quest rewards or subquest rewards. If a quest has a 2% chance for a ruby in row A, that's a 2% chance for every fucking slot of the first row, and it's even better if you find a quest that offers for both rows or one row and the subquest row.
Never, ever, ever rely on just killing the monster to get the rare drops.
>>340760818
Time and time again Japan proves themselves as the most autistic nation.
>>340760973
>It would be really expensive to port
It really wouldn't. Companies like Koei-tecmo can shit out every shitty mousou known to man, along with MH clones like Toukiden on a shoe-string budget because they manage their expectations. An uprezzed port would do absolute wonders for the series in the west while costing very little from capcom proper. Nobody will ever argue that its going to sell amazing on handhelds but to claim that it would cost to much to port it on console is stupid.
>>340760742
The game's RNG mechanics during melding were glitched, letting you "lock" skills through easy RNG seed manipulation, so everyone was running around with god charms
IG outDPSed a pierce crouch firing HBG, it was nerfed in 4U and was STILL broken

CB did fucking nothing, no ultra AEDs, no shield charge, no shield thrust, it was like an infinitely worse version of MHX's CB

Healthbars aren't inherently casual, it would just destroy the spirit of the game.

>>340752401
you can change equipment without dropping quests
>>340761063
Not having monster health visible is one of the idiosyncracies of the series, since the game expects you to watch and learn the monster's behaviours like you would out in the field. "Show, don't tell" kinda thing, like how monsters get sluggish if they're tired or limp when they're dying, some monsters also are gimped when you break parts like barioth stumbling when you break its wings or gravios' farts venthing through a broken back and becoming less dangerous, that kinda thing.
>>340761063

Because you're supposed to get a feel off how much damage you've done to the monster yourself by just looking at it
If its flinching you know youre doing heavy damage.
If its drooling you know its tired from chasing you around all day
if it runs from an area you know its scared for its life and trying to run away

I really don't see how making seeing a health bar exclusive to a skill would destroy the spirit of the game. There's already skills that let you see where the monster is and what type even before you see it, a skill to know when a monster's HP is low and others.

I think the main thing is that MH is primarily a handheld series so it needs to free up as much screen space as it can get. Also it's fun watching a monster deteriorate as you fight it, rather than just looking at a bar drop down and knowing exactly when it'll die. Because of the slightly fluctuating health of monsters it makes things less predictable.

Mounting isn't what made IG OP, it's that the weapon is given monstrous damage output, fast movement speed and free earplugs just for throwing a bug around for two seconds. It can also inflict all of its damage in one precise spot, which is a requirement when fighting Apex monsters.
Slime was actually not that broken in 3U, and speedruns in 3U heavily featured element and poison weapons. Exceptions were monsters like Lucent Nargacuga that didn't have many weaknesses outside of raw and explosive damage.

Having fiddled with it myself the only thing that's really changed is more GP opportunities, the ultra AED unloads in one shot instead of the weird shickwave stuff that 4U has, and they took off the reactive phial burst from GPs [which is honestly a nerf it really needed, shit was stupid]

>The new third hit of the combo has superarmour
And it's so fucking slow that it ruins the weapon
Bushido Lance does okay because most of its damage comes from counters into 1-2 stabs and Aerial Lance doesn't combo on the ground anyway, but Guild Lance is just fucking useless. Between the more practical stabs and the increased damage on charges and faster art charge rate, Striker shits all over it.
here's how to make the perfect MH game:
-cosmetic slots to disguise your clownsuit (although the cosmetic slots themselves should be craftable, and fucking expensive; palliums and mantles, gotta earn that beauty+functionality)
-completely remove talisman farming/rng polished equipment; talisman manufacturing system (again, expensive to make a super awesome talisman, but no rng; there's enough just from quest rewards)
-actually balance equipment and make every weapon tree worthwhile
-stop publishing exclusively on 3ds, doesn't have to look like MHO, but needs to be available on home consoles/be decent looking; crossplay on mh3u was great
-difficulty in between mh4u and mh3u; lots of solo content in mh4u was just a fucking slog/bullshit difficult due to refusal to refine old mons (raths/rajang), whereas you can solo everything in mh3u without issue (with the exception of g-rank jhen being rng-based, and maybe some event quests)
-bring back swimming; people butthurt about it just didn't know how to use the controls. lagiacrus was a great fucking monster, needs a comeback
-REWORK OLD MONS; rathalos in its current state just needs to go away. gold/silver raths have only gotten more terrible with new mons to compare to
-gunlance needs either way faster default sheathe speed, or a double/triple hop (not sure which it really NEEDS, but solo gunlancing some monsters is nigh-impossible because of the lack of mobility. just get pushed into a corner with shield up)
-remove mounting, it's a terrible gimmicky system
-decide whether you want players to evade+ like babies, or actually bother positioning themselves conservatively and carefully, and design movesets/ai around one or the other.
that's about all that comes to mind right now; i'm sure there's more, though.

not sure, maybe i mean event jhen? i think it was event jhen. he had so much hp that if he decided to just rush the boat in phase 2 and start walloping, you couldn't always kill him in time, and the boat would die

Kinda agree with getting rid of talisman farming.

no fucking thanks m8. Lagiacrus was great, but swimming was a fucking chore.

Bring back the old voices. All the new ones from 4 on suck hard.
A way for cats or whatever to get you tail cuts.

guess there wasn't much else that swam that was worth fighting, though; royal lud and plesioth is all i can think of.

More breakable spots on monsters. Breaking spots guarantees a specific part drop, based on what you broke. Rarer materials have harder to break areas.

MHX does this.
>>340762457
>>340762046
Gen 3 swimming was a chore. Swimming in general doesn't have to be.
Boost standard swimming speed to Olympic Swimmer levels across the board. Pull back the camera so you can tell depth and distance better since putting it behind the hunter and so close to it is what causes those issues. Make distance-closing attacks close more distance. Add another i-frame or two to underwater dodges, or otherwise just make them go further. Remove the way the camera goes fuckshit when doing vertical dodges underwater and just make it fucking pan the way it should, so you don't lose track of the monster when you dodge. Implement some kind of mechanic that would allow for changing angle as you swim or dodge so you can curve smoothly, otherwise some kind of mechanic to reorient yourself more smoothly/quickly after a dodge, so you can dodge down but face upwards to stab up.
>>340762046

>>340762571
It is a game that emphasizes maintenance and control, so yes, making a part of the game do its job on its own without any input from you is compromising the core design philosophy.
You control the camera. The camera should not control itself.

But GL's actually better in MHX. Shelling is weaker admittedly, which is a bit of a blow, but on the flip side poking is stronger, plus it's one of the few weapons that has three fucking amazing hunting arts and where most of its styles have at least some kind of value or viability to different people.

Adept is the only one that builds Heat fast enough and does viable damage.

Why not something ranged like a monster hunter style flintlock pistol?
>>340752730
I haven't had any problems with the control scheme on the handhelds, and Tri on the Wii as well as 3U had "Traditional" controls, yet didn't really do anything radical with the control scheme.

>>340763367
GL has always been just a lance with a different moveset, nobody ever used shells
>>340762746
Mhx lets you hit a mounted mon to help fill the gauge, and rides overall have gotten a bit harder to do and definitely take more to actually trigger. A lot of quests have subs that are like "get X Amount of rides" and you really gotta be fishing for them this time.
>>340763473
They did in 3rd and 4U.
>>340763240
Unfortunately that simply isn't enjoyable. Treating the Hunter like a normal human underwater instead of like the Hunter who can survive a million fucking metre drops with nothing but a second's delay in step, and survive fucking laser blasts like nobody's business, is a poor idea. The Hunter is a badass. Treat the Hunter like a badass.

M888888888888888888888
Striker is pretty much built for you to use Long or Wide, given the lack of slams but getting a third poke instead. Last I checked it also had the most lenient heat gauge, although I could be mistaken, but even so it's a style built around using your arts a lot so having Wyvern's Breath on top of whatever else you want makes up a lot for the lack of Full Bursts to keep your heat up.
Also it's become clear over time that Aerial is actually the Secret Bushido, letting you jump into many monster's attacks to negate damage on top of being able to do the dodge moves at pretty much any point in time instead of having to rely on monster attacks.
Have you actually played the game or are you just parroting other peoples' opinions who are in turn parroted from others?

They should honestly just fuck off with every other monster having its own theme. Its one of the things that riles my autism in MHX especially with the fated fucks all having different themes. It just doesnt feel coherent.
Should be like one theme for shitmons like jaggi/seltas, monsters with unique arenas like ingle isle and bonehole get themes, and everything else gets the area theme save for somehing like Jho or a flagship or two.

Try playing Toukiden 2 demo. Open world is a no brainer and works really well.
>>340765072
Monster Hunter has never been realistic. From the outset you've always had the Greatsword and the Longsword being 2x bigger than the Hunter, plus Hunters could always survive huge falls without any damage. Most humans would be wrecked immediately by monsters, even with armour.
As for the hype thruster, people have always thought that mobility was one of its biggest issues, and using the gun to blast yourself around would fit perfectly well with it.
Anime creep is something the series was always destined to hit at some point. They've got to do new things to keep people coming back. There was always a limit to what they could do with the middle-ages western low-fantasy setting before they'd have to start turning the dials a little bit to open up new possibilities.
It's not like it's a total genre shift. Monster Hunter hasn't suddenly become DMC. Hunting Arts need to be built up before they can be used, and depending on your hunting style, you might get as few as one or as many as 3, with Aerial and Adept having 1 each, and Striker having 3 to make up for the way it simplifies weapon mechanics and movesets. Guild gets two. Aside from that, the core gameplay is still the same.

I can stomach japan's poor taste in aesthetics but at least there's still a game under there. mh is quite literally japan's COD so it will always cater to them first and foremost
>>340767728
It looks fine. You're just being contrarian. There are tons of full sets that look like hot dogshit in comparison.
I'm reading about MHO, and people claim to be getting along fine at 250 ping, only ever bothered by interacting with the box. Is there some p2p stuff with monster logic on the host's end, or do those people have no standards whatsoever?

Yes, there is. It's called good game design. Someone here already explained it.
If you're autistic and care THIS much what your fucking video game charater looks like, go play Skyrim and make your own mods. I bet you suck ass at MH.
And again, you can easily make good looking mixed sets (i.e. looking as good as full sets).
Pic related probably has better skills than all your sets (perfect Rajang speedrun set) and it looks better than 99% the full sets.
What Capcom could do is giving us more customization possibilities, turnong off certain accessoires and making color changes more aggressive, this way you can make different armor parts look even more coherent. The Last Story does this perfectly.

Dude who posted honed blade set, that doesn't look great at all. The helm completely fails to match with the top, the fur of the waist sticks out like a sore thumb, and the red on the bottom has no equal anywhere else on the outfit.

Not really. Waist armor with fur is comfy, you don't need fur fucking everywhere just because your waist armor has it. The GX Hunter full set doesn't have fur anywhere else either.

Start fucking taking stock of your hunting area instead of blaming the ledges for your lack of awareness. You're the kind of people that get stuck against a wall and blame the wall for existing when the monster wombo combos you instead of assessing the fact that you weren't paying attention to the fucking wall.
Besides, any area that has been released after the original MH4 entry has been a lot better designed than the original MH4 areas.
>>340768482
Looks like an okay game for a new IP. Kinda like Freedom Wars.
>>340768447
The problem is not that the fur exists, it's that there's this huge square area of white that doesn't exist anywhere else on the armour. It'd be... better, if the fur could be coloured blue-purple, but in the end it'd make the helm stick out even more due to being teal and yellow in an armour that has next to none of either of those.
>>340768608
Fucking this. The ledges arent even a problem anymore and you dont even notice them anymore.

Also, I'm not going to look for source now, but Capcom did say they were positively surprised with how good the sales of the port were.

Sounds like a bore and a huge waste of time unless all the monsters had significantly reduced health pools

At least no golden faces involved.

Capcom is no stranger to cross platform networking, though multiplats tend to just separate their servers based on platform if it's not an MMO. SFV is PS4-PC crossplay and Frontier is PC-PS3-Vita crossplay. Pretty sure DDO is too.
>>340769697
Given that games are developed on PCs they damn well better be able to interface with a PC.
But having any hope of them interfacing with Xbox or Nintendo is foolhardy.

Yeah not Nintendo and Xbox. Case in point the Wii U and 360 versions of Frontier remain isolated, most probably due to the very low userbase.

>Start fucking taking stock of your hunting area instead of blaming the ledges for your lack of awareness. You're the kind of people that get stuck against a wall and blame the wall for existing when the monster wombo combos you instead of assessing the fact that you weren't paying attention to the fucking w
Not really. I'm just the kind of people that like to play online with people and those usually don't give a shit and are all over the place. You can't blame them since many weapons don't really suffer from ledges. However, some do, especially hammer and lance.
Then you have to follow the monster climbing some shit, then you have to jump down again, then you have to climb again, then the monster clips through environments for almost a minute etc.
Monster Hunter isn't an action adventure. It's basically an asymmetrical PvE fighting game with some RPG and sims mechanics. There is no need for vertical movement.
Guess why Street Fighter and even Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, Metal Gear Rising etc. have even grounds 99% the time.
