GL buff fucking WHEN? This is embarrassing.Monster Hunter thread
speaking of which how the fuck do you get gud with the gunlance
>>344409152
Pick Aerial GL
Spam full burst
>>344408965
GL will get buffed as soon as they give HH another song that is as useful as AuLWhich means never :^)
>>344409152
mash fullburst until all your teammates have ragequit, then lock the heat gauge with wyvernfire
>my copy of gen arrived a week early
>excited as fuck to get in and start playing

>try messing with the charger and it's just suddenly dead

Fuck you fate.
>>344408965
They need to nerf GL in order to buff GS even further.
>>344409203
Hey man, those DB users need their infinite stamina
>>344409295
That's your karma for not dumping it for us.
>>344409295
good. maybe i'll be able to pass you before then dispite you getting it a week early.
>>344409295
karma
is adept ez mode?
>>344408965
I love the gunlance. I play it when I want to have fun, but I use GS when I want to win. I've been using adept-counter full burst to bang out damage.
It's also a bit of a pain in the arse since it's difficult to cut tails with and my friends are too shit to do any cutting.
>>344409352
It's a nice song but it doesn't stay useful forever
They will have dash juice on farm eventually
>>344409471
The dodge window is pretty big at the moment, so yeah.
It was a neat idea but I'm hoping they remove it in the future. There's no way to properly balance a style like that.
>>344409471
Adept Bow is.
>dodge that motherfucker and doubletap him in the face with the free level 3 shot and follow up power shot
>>344409471
Yes
For comparison go make a set in 4U with evasion+3 and see how ridiculous it is.
Now imagine that it completely negates attacks if they connect at any time during your dodge, you get to do an extremely powerful counterattack after it, and it doesn't cost any skill points to use.
Posting again
Is there a way to get more ammo for the lbg in the demo? I'm running out of rapid fire shots and am having to resort to standard ones.
>>344409558
>>344409653
>>344409850
but capcom said it's difficult to pull off
What's the best style for DB?
>>344410094
Striker is the best, but it removes the archdemon gauge. Adept is better if you don't want to be a juice addict.
>>344409984
I was able to hit it every time without really trying.
If you've been playing long enough you're used to dodging at the absolute last moment anyway.
The only downside is that some weapons lose their best move without the Guild style.
Even then it's still probably the best solo style if you're not concerned about being a few seconds slower.
>>344404356
are you dumping it or not
>>344410167
>Using DB
>Not being a juice addict
Heresy
>>344410094
Aerial is neat, so is adept
>>344410207
Bow only loses arc shot, which isnt terribly useful anyways unless you are trying to status a monster, which isnt even an ideal way to play bow
So for bow there is basically no tradeoff, its a straight upgrade for most bow users
>>344410207
>LS loses finisher
>gets a better one
>>344410285
hes being an attention whoring cuck
>>344410207
>If you've been playing long enough you're used to dodging at the absolute last moment anyway
This so hard. Adept is easy mode if you've played MH before, but god damn it's so satisfying.
didnt even know this is coming out in a week, do you guys think a circle pad pro is actually worth it?
i'm used to the claw from the pee es pee but i'm considering getting one
it just looks so fucking clunky and really bad frankly
>>344410313
>Not having your own personal hornslut to give you infinite stamina
>>344408965
>GL buff fucking WHEN?
Gen made me realize Capcom doesn't want the GL to be good. They probably have it as some kind of inside joke and laugh at the people who still have any faith in it.
Also LEAK WHEN
>>344410689
>Giving up AuL just to help a lazy DB user
Anyone want to do some 4U arena?
>>344410626
Who keeps drawing these chibi monsterswhy hasn't he killed himself yet?
>>344410574
does the CPP come with a second set of shoulder buttons? I bought an N3DS for the nub, which felt like shit to use, but camera control with ZR and ZL is great anyway.
CPP doesn't use that goddamn nub anyway, so I'd say go for it.
>been playing Wide GL for so long I forgot how to play Normal/Long GL
Fuck. With Wide GL I only ever used the -lance part position my stabs in the air for the shelling. To use the lance as the primary source of damage feels so awkward now.
>>344410574
It's more comfortable at least.
>>344411020
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=730593
Ask this nigga
>>344410574
Honestly I really liked the virtual dpad in 4. It's placement was perfect and I never really used the quick select items anyway.
>Game is clearly already done and already at stores.
>Still has to wait a week
Why the fuck do companies do this?
>>344411187
To prevent piratefags from playing.
>>344411096
did they nerf the damage on shelling? the lance heat mechanic is basically a lot of work just to get slightly more than pre-rework damage on the lance stabs, so if shelling's unchanged you could probably still play wide the regular way without much issue.
>>344411279
Except piratefags will still play before most people who actually bought it since the game can be leaked.
>>344411341
Apparently yes, shelling has been nerfed and we only get up to Artillery Expert in MHG. I'm assuming this is a case of the game being up to HR only so they decided to exclude it like purple sharpness. I'll still probably build a wide GL set in MHG, but with aerial style normal shells seem to be quite easy to use now since the air slam can directly go into fullburst.
>>344411367
>since the game can be leaked
That's why they hold it. So people wouldn't leak it.
>>344411590
But that never works, does it? People are already getting gen and its just a matter of time before its leaked before release date. The way i see it the only people getting fucked are the actual buyers.
>>344411085
Can't really take a pic of it right now but it has ZL/ZR and a second R button
You can make them work as dpad left/right for camera or activate arts 2 and 3 which are the best options
I can't really use my 3ds without it anymore because it makes it so comfy go hold and doesn't make my hands hurt
>>344411020
jerk
post webms
>>344412112
Not that anon, but I just ordered a CPP XL the other day myself. How does the thing consume battery/turn on? Is there a switch, or does it only become active when you set the 3DS to use the CPP and it does its infra red magic? I thought it'd be nice to have the CPP on at all times when I use the 3DS since it has a nice grip, but if it constantly drains its own batteries when it's attached to the 3DS then that's kind of a waste
>>344412191
>>344411752
>The way i see it the only people getting fucked are the actual buyers.
Good job explaining all DRM in a single sentence.
>>344410574
I love the circle pad pro, it's super comfy. It has ZL and ZR buttons that feel way better to use than the regular shoulder buttons and the battery life is ridiculously long. I'd say get one, they're pretty cheap anyway.
>>344412341
It usually just turns on when you hit a button on it. I don't know if it turns on when you aren't using a compatible game and hit a button. It doesn't really matter, you won't need to change that battery often.
>>344411085
>>344411103
>>344412465
>>344411153
Guess i'll pick one up, I hope i won't regret it
>>344412191
I don't think I've ever seen as many shitters as I have in the demo Malfestio rooms.
Bows/gunners move to the very outside edge of the arena and try to snipe it and constantly miss.
All blademasters don't make any attempt not to trip/send teammates flying despite the owl being such a small monster
So many people abandoning mid fight because they ran out of bitterbugs.
I didn't initially think this monster was a problem, but it seems that 90% of people literally cannot figure out how to fight it.
>>344412341
>How does the thing consume battery/turn on? Is there a switch, or does it only become active when you set the 3DS to use the CPP and it does its infra red magic?
Comes with an AAA battery, lasts literally fucking forever
It "turns on" when you press ZL or ZR and stays active if it gets an active IR signal (say, you leave your MH on and the CPP will never turn off unless like an hour(?) has passed with no input)
>I thought it'd be nice to have the CPP on at all times when I use the 3DS since it has a nice grip, but if it constantly drains its own batteries when it's attached to the 3DS then that's kind of a waste
Battery lasts literally fucking forever but it turns off after 2 mins if you're not pressing anything, but you don't need to have it turned on at all times, just leave it attached to the 3ds if you're playing a game that doesn't use it
I recommend it anon, it's cheap and even if it's only for MH it will last you 300+ hours or who knows
I'm playing REvelations and MGS3 with it too, very comfy

>tfw no mhgenerations on vita
>>344413473
micro sd and how do you not have an sd adapter for it? i have 4 floating around
>>344413440
The heat mechanic doesn't add a lot of damage (You actually deal less than 4U's GL outside of red), it's very punishing if you fuck it up, and it encourages you to play like a shitter.
>>344413603
>not using micro sd adapter
>>344413609
>tfw no MHG leak today
>>344413440
The heat mechanic is fucking awful. You get a measly 5% damage boost (compared to 4U) if you have the gauge in the red part. If you overheat it you lock it at the bottom for two fucking minutes and there goes all your damage.
>>344413559
Is that all for the necessary ones?
>>344413609
>tfw no MH on vita
I have a N3DS, MH3U, MH4U, and I pre ordered MHG, but I want to wipe the dust off my Vita and an MH game would be the perfect way to do that.
>>344413776
Guard is pretty much useless in MHX.
HGE on the other hand might become necessary if you don't want to miss on AED on roars.
Razor Sharp is really nice to have, since you do quite a lot of hits.
>>344413681
>>344413750
>5% damage boost
oh wow, fuck me; that's fucking that, then.
did they nerf charge blade, at least? i had a TON of fun with my guard+2 guard up set, but i literally dealt way more damage than was at all fair.also they should remove evasion from the game, or make +1 the default evade, and balance around either of those conditions
>>344410313
>>344410689
>>344410773
>Not using Mushrommancer and Item Use Up
It's sickening.
>>344414073
>>344414073
to be fair, it takes you 3 full bursts to get into red, and once you get into the swing of things you can very safely guarantee that every two minutes
a 5% damage boost still doesn't really fix the underlying issues of the gunlance, but it's not an end of the world buff for anyone who wants to main it
>>344414087
I became addicted to the Patissier set because of it's unique skill.
>>344414321
That's a good choice too.
>>344414298
I don't understand why they can't just make shelling scale off your attack power. It's all gunlance has ever needed.
It's not like Capcom is against having neutral damage scale with attack power, since CB's phial bursts exist.
>>344414189
>they fucked with the delays and combos
i'm guessing they're trying to get you to use axe mode more often a la swaxe? great; that's the reason i stopped playing swaxe in 4u, was because i couldn't control the goddamn thing anymore
>>344414298
that's good, at least; i like long-type the best, so hopefully it'll be the most playable.
Is this good strategy using GL in Gen? Or is there a better way?

>If you've been playing long enough you're used to dodging at the absolute last moment anyway.
That's the thing, though. Adept is only really EZ-MODO for people who actually know how to play Monster Hunter. Those trying to get to grips with the ropes will still get their shit pushed in regardless and won't be able to take advantage of the counter abilities effectively. Thus making it easier for those who are already good at the game, but hey ho, who gives a shit!

>>344415001
>>344415059
Homebrew without NinjHax was a mistake.
Theres just something about Generations. I don't it just doesn't sit well with me. At least the demo. I mean, ultimately I am going to wait to get it because I have questions. I am still using an older 3DS XL without a circle pad, so the touch screen config is crucial I loved having the camera right there by my right thumb. I'm assuming that will be there.
The weapon changes are what I feel like are making me so meh about the game. DB with that infinite stamina vial is LET'S GET CRAZY, but feels like it takes the risk/reward away from it. GS felt even slower than normal. SnS was the only thing I liked the changes for, aka oils on the blade, but even then I just feel like the whole thing is meh.
Is this me or does anyone else feel like this?
Have a bunch of armor set pics along with their skills:

MHG is possibly the MH game with the lowest longevity yet
You literally make one armor set and farm one monster for a day or two to make all of its weapons and you o longer have a reason to play.

>>344415720
by posting a mhg .cia
>>344415714
Most other MH games at least had multiple useful armor sets and the best weapons came from a ton of different monsters
In MHG every other option is just strictly worse than Silver Sol with a Hellblade weapon
>>344415512
>that Silver Sol EX bonus
A) I think that armor looks kinda slick, so call me an edge lord if needed, fuck you I like it. B) just more chance for desire sensor to butt fuck you. I like it.
>>344415723
This is what happens when your playerbase is the average japanese casual.

>Ruby/Plate for a fucking armor
ayy nigga if I strike the unimaginable gold that is getting a super-rare item without grinding I'm using it to craft a weapon, not a fucking waistline for +6 attack or something.
>>344416197
Got any weapon imgur as well? And if its in the mhg just say so, I will go find it.
Post your ideas for the next set of weapons. Keep in mind we've progressed from normal weapons to axes that turn into exploding swords to glaives that shoot juice sucking bugs, so we need to keep the escalation going.
My idea is a grappling hook/whip. It would work almost as a hybrid ranged/melee. You could retract and fire it out to latch onto monsters and scenery to pull yourself rapidly. Once it's out, you can swing it around in various melee combos. Maybe the tip could be coated ala ammo or arrow coatings?
>>344416421
>not crafting both
It's like your 3000 hours were from leaving the console on
do bows have more armor variety than melee or is there also one set that shits all over everything else?
>>344416326
No, it's an inverse of the regular sharpness bonus. So as you get more dull, power goes up. BUT, it does not negate the regular sharpness bonus. To the best of my recollection, Green is the sweet spot for max damage.
Does anyone know if different style's fullburst is stronger/weaker? I know some moves have different motion value for other weapon, but shells/fullburst are supposed to be fixed damage, right?

DO NOT FUCKING GO TO THE /vg/ THREAD FOR MONSTER HUNTER
IT'S JUST ANOTHER FUCKING CIRCLEJERK CANCER CAMP
BEST WAY TO PLAY THIS GAME IS LITERALLY TO PLAY IT WITH JUST A FRIEND OR TWO THAN JOIN THE /mhg/ CANCER GENERAL
TAKE IT FROM SOMEONE WHO LURKED THERE DURING 4U's RELEASE

I just think you're delusional if you think weapons shouldn't be compared based on the scenario that most people encounter them in
but with that half baked reply I can just assume you've got no real ground to stand on anyway
What weapons are good for:
I dont want to rely on using items 24/7 or combining this and that and managing farms amd other BS
I would strongly prefer melee
>>344418293
I thought it was common knowledge that /vg/ was a shitty place to find people to play with no matter the game.

Your charge finisher has a motion value of 70
One of your skills gives you a giant attack boost for three minutes after you block an strong attack
The charge combos into attacks now, so you can charge->tripe poke->charge for massive damage
Also your other hunter arts are okay, it's just a solid weapon all around, even without charge spam.

Firstly, most weapons have super armor so that sort of dumb shit doesn't happen
Secondly, I never claimed once that solo play is to not be considered, just that online play should have much higher weighting because thats just how most people play, stop misinterpreting my argument

Although I left once the discord split happened, I'm guessing that's what killed the place and caused the circlejerk

You realize half the game is solo right? Pretending it doesn't exist doesnt make it not exist. Weapons and fights are designed with solo in mind. Multiplayer is a side fun mode, but not an accurate representation of the game. You can solo is autism all you want it doesn't change you're stupid to think weapons are only as good as the party members you have
why do they keep fucking bringing back all the shitty gen 1 monsters

Mhg regulars died years ago. The general is a shell of its former self
>>344419428
Which in of itself is a shell of the former great majestic threads /v/ had during MHFU days. Those were the pinnacle of MH threads.
>>344419301
>Multiplayer is a side fun mode
well I guess if you're gonna forfeit the argument right there, that's cool
>>344419127
/mhg/ was always shit. They don't realize how to have fun or solo anything, it's all numbers and grinding to them. No pride, no personal hunting style crafted from years of refinement, they just look up videos on how other people hunt/craft and copy it.
I really miss the fanbase from back around 2008, even Tri's fanbase wasn't bad. Now I can't even recognize it.
I guess I'm glad I have a friend who I play MH with.
>>344418905
hame is the most retarded thing in the series and it amazes me that capcom thinks gunlance is a bigger threat to the game balance than that shit
>>344419428
>>344419659
I remember seeing the downward spiral begin.
I never really saw that much shitposting in Monster Hunter threads until somewhere around the time the Kelbi Bow became a thing.
>>344409473
>when I want to win
Is it even possible to lose in MH? I've been watching some videos of people soloing bosses on youtube and the damage they deal is ridiculously low, specially compared to how little the monster actually hits anything. Not to mention it often stops to do some useless shit like roar and you have an eternity to use items.
I can't imagine anyone actually losing in a group of more than 2 people.
>>344417537
It does well on the demo, but falls off hard in the actual game. Other weapons just get so far ahead in the game that it makes the GL seem even weaker. Aerial SA, striker GS, Striker Lance, Bushido bow all just continue to advance further than the other weapons as you approach end game. With GL you're stuck with adept if you want to be optimal, and spamming full burst as your main source of damage. You need a normal lance and and load up, but you'll never kill as fast as other weapons. But that was true in all other games so not much changes here. GL on mhx is a lot better than 4Us tamarod I can tell you that much
>>344417537
This is probably the most dumbest thing I've read today
>>344420031
Same, that can't be a coincidence. I mean, P3rd was even more broken due to GL's autoguard, but nobody noticed because it was piss-easy regardless.
>>344418861
that was fun, sorry I let you die
>>344420107
>Is it even possible to lose in MH? I've been watching some videos of people soloing bosses on youtube and the damage they deal is ridiculously low, specially compared to how little the monster actually hits anything.
That's because they're probably doing those bosses in end-game gear. Try doing a decent high-rank hunt in low-rank armour and you're going to get two-shot by fucking anything if you're not careful.
>>344420297
Nah it was my fault. I read the attack completely wrong and dived at the wrong time
>IG can charge the harvest attack
holy fuck i feel so stupid
>>344420107
I hate to sound like an eltist shit, but my friends are bad. Really bad. We've been playing since the first game and they've not improved in the slightest. When I'm myself or playing online, I like to experiment around with weapons and found gunlance a lot of fun. If I'm playing with my local friends, it's usually a race for me to GS down the monster before it gets 3 kos on my friends. They're terrible and I think they'll never improve because they're too terrified to get out of their bubble, but I enjoy helping them win, which I know I kinda shouldn't do.
>>344420313
Ferocious attacks cut through endgame armor like butter. I think it's a 2HKO no matter what you do.
>>344419659
I remember Tri threads being really good, with barely any shitposting.
>>344420469
You could do this in 4u

Do me favors and I will consider it.

This is going to be even more fun than playing matador against M.Tigrex in 4U

This'll be my first Monster Hunter, but I've already put around 8 hours in the demo.
I've killed the 3 monsters online and solo in under 15 minutes and I've done the turtorials and I'm excited for the full release.
My question is how do you play with friends? I know there's a hub but is it like the demo with the whole ID and passcode? Also I hear a lot of things about "guild" what's that about?
Any help would be appreciated.
>>344421861
the game will probably access your 3ds friends list, as it did in 4U
guild is just the version of the game that's recommended to be played with friends, and usually goes to higher difficulty than village
>>344421576
No I quoted who I wanted. GL is good in demo. Real good. But in real game it drops
Second poster was saying GL is ass because of its online play, which is silly. Because you can't play optimally online since you can't spam full burst. You have to play like 4u when online ( x, x, x+a back hop repeat) His argument was only bad because hammers can hit it, which is really dumb.
>>344421861
There's a gathering hall you go to for separate multiplayer quests.
>>344422041
Okay, thanks a lot.
Will people here be playing together because I only have 1 or 2 friends that MIGHT b getting the game, so my concern is I'll be online with randoms most the time.
>>344422062
they're the same poster, and all he stated was that gunlance is even more suboptimal online than most other weapons
>>344422325
monhan with randoms is the best
the game is too easy with competent players
>>344414635
>>344417445
What style, babby?
Guild should be same strats as 4u, go Long and mainly use the shots to extend your combos. The heat gauge is also more forgiving for locking, so you can skip that HA that locks you in red and you can put the two absolute evasions there for mobility.
Aerial and Adept is pretty much full burst abuse. In aerial if you don't want to actively reload between vaults, you can try wide shots for a change (vault -> shell mid-air -> slam -> repeat) it's not as strong, but viable if there's a Wide shot GL you like. Adept has the perfect guard that reloads all your shells and gives you an opening for a straight slam into full burst. You can even forget the heat gauge and go full shell abuse, as I've seen some players do that and rack good times.
>>344422325
Randoms are the literal best though. You'll have a lot more stories to tell from randoms than dominating the game 24/7.
>they will continue to nerf Gunlance
>they will continue to buff Greatsword
T-thanks Capcom
things like critical distance should be explained in the tutorial for gunners. some gunners think they're playing call of duty when fighting malfestio
>make my variant armor/weapon
>fucking hate MHX endgame
>tfw gonna be hunting alone in 4U
Solo hunting is fun too I guess.
>>344422571
It is explained, but shitters don't read tutorials.
>>344422403
It is but not the reasons he stated. Saying they can get hit by other players is the reason for it being weaker online is wrong. Saying what I said about not being able to full burst is correct.
I doubt the same poster would argue with themselves so I just give people the benefit of the doubt
>>344422675
to be fair there's a very clear indication that you do more damage at a certain distance, you don't even have to read a tutorial to know you're doing something wrong
>>344408965
>needing a buff for GL
Become skillered at this game hunter-chan
>>344422519
I sure do love the "team leader" archetype you find online.
I always fucked with em and kept asking who made them guild master.
>>344422716
Ah my mistake, I did quote the same people. Hooray for mobile posting.
>>344422716
I think he was talking about tripping over the hammer with the full burst
>>344422501
I'm thinking of using normal GL here for a change, since I was using Wide GL in 4U. That would mean aerial or adept is the best style for me, right?
Can someone help me with something regarding Adept Bow or any Adept for that matter. I pull off the Adept evade and now have the buff, but me and the camera are facing away from the monster. Is there a fast way to get the camera back on the monster besides just tapping L after a lockon? Because it seems like the speed kill videos with Adept never lose track of the monster.
>>344422927
From what I've seen...
>Aerial lets you leap up and slam down into a full burst.
>Adept, when you perfect block, lets you full slam into the full first.
Both are funky, but I've got the feeling melee hunters will hate you.
>>344422927
Yes. Artillery and Load Up are also popular skills if you go full burst spamming. Aerial is super fun, but you have to get used to the backhop being substituted by the vault. Adept is a dream come true if you used guard gunlancing. You only lose the flip reload, but the perfect guard reload more than make up for it.
>>344422927
Adept is best for normal gunlances, since you'll be spamming full burst 24/7
>>344423095
Using the stick/nub?
Is it fun at all to play the ranged weapons? This will be my first MH and I'm watching videos, it seems to be so boring I don't know why people would ever play it. The guy is just literally standing there shooting while everyone else is actually playing.
>>344423095
...they're tapping L and holding the analog stick in the direction of the monster after the evade
>>344423095
Use your camera
>>344423186
Oh yeah, there's that. It's the most fun GL's been for quite some time, but it's disruptive as hell. I'm using GL mainly for soloing the game, but I'll have IGs and HHs ready for MP.
>>344423224
Please understand
We designed the game for the player. You choose what playstyle you're comfortable with. There's a demo out so you can try your hand at everything.
>>344409152
>that pic
>>344423224
Its fun because its kinda hard to play at first since you gotta learn how to position yourself correctly, but then you actually get good and it feels amazing.
Its way easier and less fun in multiplayer imo, since you can just sit there shooting while everyone else distracts the monster.
>>344423224
It's more fun with a pierce gun, which the demo doesn't really give you.
Are armor skills active in the demo?
>>344423437
>We
Capcom buff the fucking gunlance and stop shitposting on /v/
>>344423637
Feels like everyone has razor sharp active.
>>344423637
No, fucking elements aren't even active.
>>344423224
You're judging a weapon based on multiplayer...idiot.
>>344423665
Please understand we are doing our best, okay?
>>344421615
sorry about the one bomb I attempted to use
>>344410574
You can put an extra camera control on the right side if your touch screen, between that and the soft lock-on I've never had camera issues on an old 3DS
