What weapons and styles will you be using? Any styles that made you change your perception on a weapon?
Will you be using the same weapon(s) as in 4u?
First for sexy huntresses who can hold their own in a hunt and aren't Rajang fodder.
>>146219575
I'll be using the best styles with the best weapons only.
>>146219575
None, none.
None.
Maybe IG in MH5 if they rework it into something more unique. Else I'll go full SnS that time around.
I fucking despise capture quests
>>146219575
Guild and whatever is the other best style for the weapon
Might try out LS and HH this time around. In 4U I bounced between GS, GL, and bow mainly.
>>146219575
So far, Bushido LS, Guild/Aerial IG, Bushido Bow, Bushido DB.
Bushido DB is absurd. I tried for the heck of it this afternoon and got the same time as Bushido LS and Aerial IG on the first try. I like it, but it feels unfair.
Since the SnS gets coatings do you faggots think the GL will a further expansion of ROMAN types like status or element shit?
>>146219575
Think I'll use mostly SnS. All styles are fun so I'll just change whenever.
HH when I play with my firends, guild only, can't get the grasp of any other styles.
I used a lot of DB and IG in 4U, don't think I'll use them early in Gen.
And I just discovered LBG in the demo, it's really fun, striker, or bushido if I have problems.
>>146220406
Did they make gl somewhat worse in gen?
>>146220657
it was buffed for good GL players, nerfed for shit ones
>tfw trying my damnedest to use LBGs
I yield. I guess it's just not for me
I feel like I always do fuck-all damage, even if I'm shoving rapid shots right into their faces
At least I can cross it off the list
>>146220768
How?
How exactly does Potential -10 work? How much damage and Defense am I losing? Is it gradual over health loss, or is there an exact point where my stats dive? Is it worth getting rid of Guard to remove it?
>>146220406
They'll make shelling do increased elemental damage and nerf its neutral damage. If you're shelling a hitzone with an elemental weakness of at least 30, it'll do as much damage as a raw shell! Wow!
>>146219494
fuck off beans
Tiers
>>146221881
>>146221321
Worrywort, the active skill, gives -21 defense and a 30% decrease to damage while active.
It only activates at 40% or less health.
The long and short of it is that if you're getting your ass kicked, it makes it easier for you to get your ass kicked.
>>146221086
Heat gauge.
Every GL attack is overall nerfed, but shelling now increases heat. Depending at what heat level you are, your attacks can get buffed and at max level your attacks are stronger than ever. But if you overheat your weapon, you are locked at minimum heat level for a certain time, so the weapon is super technical now. Many people are whining at the changes, but I think it's an interesting answer to how to make both pokes and shelling relevant in battle.
>>146222002
GL should really be 360 because it's shitty and overheats.
Anime Weeaboo Swords (plural) or Manly Westaboo Sword (plus complimentary useless shield)?
I just wanna run in, slap/slash some shit, and then fuck off without tripping people like Weeaboo Sword (singular) does
>>146222002
>lance is slim ps3
>gl is fat ps3
>>146222002
it's shit
>>146219575
Striker SnS and Adept LS. If I see a Lance faggot online, I'm tripping him every chance I get.
>>146222002
>GS is best
I respectfully disagree.
cat, adult kiss, etc
They're giving out keys in a couple minutes on the monster hunter Twitter
What style/weapon combo do you love using but no one else seems to like?
Aerial GS repping
>>146223310
You'd give an adult cat a kiss and etc?
>tfw sunk 35 hours in the demo
I love monster hunter.
>>146223630
I love Monster Hunter!
Except X.
And Frontier.
And Online.
BEST
>>146223920
PUPPY
The more I hunt the 4 flagships, the more I like them. Raizex is still a bit iffy, but the rest are well-designed and fun to fight imo
>The reflection off of Tama's scales
>The sheer size of Gammoth
>Dinovaldo's color scheme, but fuck fighting him
>>146223813
I love all hunting.
No exceptions.Though I have yet to touch Online since I decided to only to play it when it's out of beta but it seems to have decided to remain in open beta for the rest of time.
>>146224107
Asstalos is fantastic, though.

>>146225725
At least you didn't fuck up and forget to put one letter in.
>>146225753
rules are rules, get to the new thread or else
Fuck you fast ass twitter folk. My internet went down on every code except the fucking first. Someone give me $4 or a code. I can't wait 2 days for my paycheck to get this demo.
how the fuck do you people not have $4
>>146225989
Lucky for you the humble bundle will be over by the time you get a paycheck so you'll just have to wait till the 30th.
>tfw not enough battle maiden outfits in MHX
I just want to have a long dress in battle, not some whore outfit. The vast bulk of the outfits like Rathian (and all the variants) are garbage, with the only decently viable one being Hermitaur R due to Recoil down +2 and Pierce Up.
>>146226261
>Wanting to look like japanese king arthur
>>146224039
We need more
The Generations demo is so damn fun I can't stop playing. All these styles and hunter arts and the new effects are just the best.
So glad I can play this instead of boring old 4U. That game is dead and old.
>>146226557
>implying that isn't badass as hell compared to the slut gear like Narga and Kirin
I'm mostly angry that Rathian armor is complete garbage in every single MH. I get that Gold Rathian can be handy for getting loads of carves/box items, but it serves no purpose in fighting.
>>146226029
Nigga just skip a meal.
>>146226661
I'm glad Rathian armor is shit. The fewer boring monsters with good armor, the better.
>>146226557

Hey do you think X is going to be an ultimate version or what?
>>146227190
1 more if anybody else wants to join. gonna start soon
>>146227884
>mfw MHXG is announced
>mfw pirates can just pirate it and translate it like MHX
>mfw idiots who bought the game are stuck with the inferior version for an entire year
>>146227884
No. We're getting MH5.
>>146228193
>>146228234
Even if it's an announcement for MH5, you know for a fact that people who waited for the western release of MHX are getting buttfucked. Hell, I was able to fully play MHX just fine in 100% Japanese without being able to read a single word of it (although the translation patch came quickly anyway).
There's no reason you should be waiting around for a localization, especially when games like P3rd and MHX have proven that they'll get translation patches at lightning speed.
Why the hell would anyone want more of X? An XG would be fucking terrible.
>>146228564
>X
>bad
I want this meme to end. At least X offers multiple approaches to combat, as opposed to the same old Guild style every time.

fuck

>Even if it's an announcement for MH5, you know for a fact that people who waited for the western release of MHX are getting buttfucked
How when they're able to play the same game for the same length that the gooks had it before the next one? Not even that, Capcom will skip MH5 in the west because they know they're going to make 5G.
>>146228905
Because you're not playing the latest game. It's as simple as that.
>>146228759
Full pic is on monosodium glutamate if you're interested.
>>146229023
Why would anyone care about playing MH5 when the 5G will revamp all the weapons and add more shit like what happened with 3U and 4U?
>>146219494
Seriously how
Whenever I download it it doesn't work.
>>146228759
>>146229150
what kind of degenerate are you to where you like see fucking anime cats get fucked

Black Gravios urgent
>>146228730
>X
>good
I want this meme to end. At least the main series isn't infested with anime powerlevel frontiershit.
>>146228730
It also offers shitty hunts, shitty fps, shitty blurry graphics, shitty fov so you can't see shit and shitty unfun aoe spamming monsters making it even harder to see what's going on. X is shit. XG will just be more shit.
>>146229174
Because if it's anything like 4 and 4G, you can instantly continue from where you left off. Fuck waiting when you can get a head start on it.
>>146229150
Wait nevermind, that's a tiny version.
Go to /trash/ and ctrl+f for a monster hunter thread, I'll post it there.
Why the fuck would ANYONE want GQs back?
>Turned the game into rajang hunter
>Leveling quests aside from solo or having competent friends was hell
>Grinding just so you can get a quest with the right layout and bias
>Once you finally make the rajang population go extinct 5 times you realize you spent a thousand hours getting a GS that ends the hunt 5 seconds faster
>>146229435
Excellent use of buzzwords
>>146229535
That seems like a problem of the player, not the game.
Is it me or is the Insect Glaive not satisfying to use?
I just started playing 4U and I don't know like it doens't have any oomph or kick.
Also I can only get two extracts right? I'm just asking because there's a third circle in the hud but it never fills up.
>>146229512
You do know all your complaints about graphics are only applied to a N3DS right? The O3DS versions of both 4G and X are identical in terms of graphics and FPS. X admittedly only ups the graphics and FPS by a small amount when using a N3DS, but this is absolutely irrelevant for O3DS users.
I would imagine it has to do with the fact that MHX is a 1.8Gb game, while MH4U is a 4.0Gb game. Capcom massively cut down on the assets and such so that they could ship the game on the much cheaper 2Gb carts instead.
>aoe spamming monsters
I'm sure the apex monsters and waiting 2 minutes for your goddamn stones to charge was more fun.
>>146229917
>waiting 2 minutes for your goddamn stones to charge
kek
Git gud shitter
>>146230252
Yeah, all the good players know you're supposed to stun lock the monster the moment it leaves apex for optimal play.
>>146230252
I didn't know you could kill an Apex monster in a solo hunt in the duration of a single stone.
Room's up if anyone wants to hunt a Steve or two

>>146229886
You can get 3 extracts, red, white and orange, you get them by using your kinsect on certain parts of the monster (red= face, etc) on most monsters red and white are easier to get than orange since it is usually extracted from the tail.
>>146230672
Oh okay, also does it matter what juice I give my bug?
I'll just give it a bunch of fire
>>146231001
You have to give it VERY specific juices to get the optimal bug. Go look up one of the various guides for that.
>>146231049
Sounds like a lot of work
Sword and Shield is the strongest weapon, used by the strongest hunters!
>>146229886
IG has a lot of oomph and kick. In fact, it has arguably the most oomph and kick of any weapon in the game. It oomps and kicks extremely hard.
But, not until you get to G rank. It's actually kinda dookie before then.
>>146231698
nice meme
>>146231265
Do you want a good weapon or not nigga?
>>146231698
But friend now I must ask what's your favorite style?
>>146232531
idk i can't get a demo code but striker seems like objectively the best one
>>146229331
Sorry, my man. Internet went poop and now I just get errors trying to connect again.
We got the African American gravy though.
>>146219252
So.. I'll ask even though I'm pretty sure it'll be a no.
I went to purchase the humble demo .. But it looks Like the promo ended..so I'm kinda out of luck there.
Does anyone have a code they would give up? Although I understand that most of them have already been given away or used so it's cool if you can't. My loss I suppose

It's not a very well thought out mechanic, especially if you can just ignore it.

>>146235912
No emunand?
>>146236038
I don't see the problem
>>146231993
No I mean in terms of weapon feel.
Like when you're using a hammer you're like fuck yeah take it. The hammer feels like it's hurting it.
But like if you use SnS it feels kind of wimpy.
The glaive feels kind of wimpy too. Do you get what I'm trying to say?
>>146236141
Did but got tired of it. Also I kinda like badge arcade and I couldn't play with a modded 3DS.
>>146236038
I had it for the longest while, so I don't see why I would need to change.
>>146219252
Generations actually has more unique monsters if you don't count subspecies (and in some cases you really shouldn't).
>>146236248
If 4U looks and runs the same on it as X does then there's a BIG problem. How people can not only play like that but spend 1000+ hours doing it I don't know.
>>146236671
I think I see the problem. I have never had better than an o3ds, so I don't get it. But I guess you have one of the new ones, so you can't understand how I still use mine.
>>146236547
I don't know what that is but all I've had to do with emunand is update through the system settings instead of the prompt. Zero maintenance.
>>146236654
All rehash
You have ten seconds to explain why One-eared Garuga isn't the best monster in Gen.
Any AUSfags here need a code?
>>146236881
If one eared garuga is already a bad ass, what will one that is still at full strength fight like.
>>146236881
His armor is absolute garbage compared to variant narga and variant lagombi.

5 more fps is not worth it.
>>146236038
>There are people who bough a peripheral rather than gitting gud at the touchscreen camera
>>146237010
I thought it was one eared because it's literally fought so much that no one's been able to kill it until you find it and take it down after it's sustained hundreds of injuries?
>>146237269
Exactly, but if it managed to get that swoll being injured. What would it be like at FULL POWER
>>146236983
Nope. See: >>146219494
Nice of you to offer though.
>>146237603
I already have the demo why are you even quoting me with that?
>>146237063
It's more than just the fps boost. Have you even played 4U on a N3DS for more than 10 seconds? I don't think you have.

>muh /mhg/ memes so i can look cool and fit in
>>146236335
Do you mean the "impact" of the weapon? Like some don't feel more active than a butter knife?
>>146238990
Adept isn't good with GS. Guild or Aerial are the best for it. Aerial GS is fun as fuck.
Use Aerial
>>146237724
Not him but I have, a friend has a n3ds and handed it to me to help in a caravan quest.
It looked "different" but it doesn't matter at all, no actual relevant change.
>>146239076
Yeah

Thanks man
>>146239454
Enjoy your dolphin porn.
>>146238339
thanks anon
>>146239409
No, I get exactly what you mean. I love using GS, Ham, GL, HBG, and some Bow. I love the impact of the weapons, especially staggering a monster with GS.
Tried branching out to SA, CB, LS, and SnS. Didn't like them because I couldn't groove with them or feel any oomph. Likewise with Lance.
I wish I liked them more, but they just "feel" weak, no matter how strong they are.
>>146239218
yeah Aerial is my favourite and probably my main style for GS, just wanted to try out adept
>>146239883
Adept is really good on HBG, but yeah. Aerial GS is the near-perfect mix of FAST and GS
So wait, when mh4g came out in Japan, people could just import their savefiles from mh4 and continue from where they left? If MHGX exists does this mean I don't have to do those shitty gathering quests from beginning anymore and just continue where I left? I would be totally fine with that.
Okay so if I'm getting this right keep whacking with the CB until the energy turns red and then put in the phials?

it locks you to red for a certain amount of time, and disables wyvern fire
Any demo rooms up?
>>146222802
>If I see a Lance faggot online...
Why are you mad that he'll potentially outdamage you as Striker?
Isn't your Shoryugeki enough?
>>146251017
Wyvern fire is used to lock in your heat level now.
So, it still lets you skip fiddling with the gauge.

i'm pretty sure the art activates the cooldown for wyvern fire and can't be used during the cooldown
>>146252652
>>146242215
my brethren
>>146252727
That's what I meant.
It lets you skip the whole process of fiddling with the gauge, then having to lock it in with WF.
>>146252998
wyvern fire rapes the sharpness of the best gunlance, and is lackluster in terms of damage
i haven't seen WF used in TAs, they use the red lock art and manage the gauge when it's down

s.m.h.
Anyone have picture comparisons for reduced effect settings in X? The tooltip isn't at all descriptive.

no cats there
>>146256936
if i recall, starting a co-op hunt removed the cats on the X demo
Does a game running at a higher framerate make it feel slower, despite being smoother? After going back to 4U from playing X for awhile, the weapons I usually use, lance and SnS, feel like they attack slower than they do in X but I'm pretty sure their attack speed should be the same.

Still in frontier
Any good aerial hammer vids? Considering giving it a try
>>146259372
Not aerial but still a good hammer vid that shows you don't ever want or need to use aerial

>>146259740
it looks even more boring than striker SA though.
>>146259372
Here bro
>subexiting enough parts to upgrade weapon
Sub quests are the greatest thing ever introduced to the game!
Ignore this >>146259853 because this >>146260124 is definitely the most boring thing I've ever seen in monhun. Jump slamming is for retards only.
>>146260124
Bushido Hammer looks so much better than this.
>>146219575
For sns: either bushido or striker. Maybe aerial for monsters that REALLY needs mounts to get down. Ex: fatalis' head.
For HH: bushido.
In Mh4, I used IG as my single weaponfu from hr1 to grank. Not going to do that again because I ended up piss poor both mone and c-points. I also heard IG is so fucked now. I used sns and hh for expeds and GQs, and they felt smooth! I enjoyed them a lot!
Sorry if this question has been asked a lot before... but is Generations worth it?
>>146261154
>fatalis
>MHG
>>146261154
aerial is strictly worse than bushido on sns because the bushido counter is a jump attack.
Holy fuck, all these story quests in MHO are making me angry. They force you to spend so long listening to chink dialog at the start and then you're stuck with two fucking retarded NPCs fucking up the aggro so you can't have a fun hunt. Please tell me these fucking chink NPCs go away at some point.

HOLY FUCK
Has anyone managed to solo Nargacuga in the demo in multiplayer mode?
I've gotten him to limping as GL and CB but not for very long before timeout.
>>146264045
I timed out with a friend bitching about not being able to get into archdemon with Guild DB
>>146263284
>mho
looks pretty cool tho
>>146261965
Then apply "like", smartass. For annoying monsters that just wont quit lingering in the air.
At what time should I stop playing 4U? I'm soloing it since I'm an antisocial fuck. Barely reached HR Caravan.
>>146265332
the end of g rank
>>146265613
How difficult will that be solo?
>>146263284
I wonder if they turned off the hit effects on hunter for that trailer.
Looked weird not to see a little blood flash every time they got hit by Rajang's punches.
>>146265713
Play online brother. Its much more fun
How is the bow in MH3U? Is it any good? I might get MH3U and learn to start gunning.
>>146265948
It's fine.
>>146265948
Underwhelming. LBG and HBG have merit though they're much more of a pain in the ass to deal with inventory wise since they're lacking things like field pouch and item sets that 4U has.
>>146265948
It's okay.
Kelbi is for shitters.
Use Dios for a real bow.
>>146265997
>>146266016
>>146266107
How does it compare to the heavy bowgun? I'm pretty much a beginner to gunning, but I do want to do some heavy damage.
>>146265942
I dunno. I'm a lance main, and I hear a lot of shit about tripping players - tripping involving either I or my party. Plus, I like to do the charge thrust and I hear that it's either useless or detrimental to the team.
>>146266178
Lancers usually don't trip other players unless you're charging.
>>146266169
HBG has always been a strong choice in any game.
Plenty of solid options, and is the easiest of the 3 to use effectively.
>>146266307
That's good to hear. Is it possible to trip others if I'm just abusing the constant pokes in the charge?The charge pokes actually do good damage, right?
>>146266405
You send them flying away.The charge is shit for anything that isn't a giant elder dragon.
>>146266405
I haven't really lanced in a long time, but most of Lance's DPS comes from non-stop poking and dodging. Countering is fun and all, but there's no guarantee the monster will target you while you're playing online. The actual charge move will annoy your teammates if you run into them, but it helps close the distance. I would never really use it for damage.
>>146266324
Can you tell me when I should be using pierce shots, when normal shots and when pellet shots? I'm really confused about that.
>>146266405
Nope, but spamming the lance charge is actually worth a shit with Striker style in MHX/Gen. If you need to charge for whatever reason in 4U, signal before doing it and I suppose you might as well do the jumping charge finisher.
>>146266645
>Is the monster bigger than a Great Jaggi/Arzuros?
Then use pierce shot. Generally pierce 1 or 2 depending on the size, and 3 is for huge monsters like Jhen. Also evade extender helps a lot. Like a lot. It's almost mandatory to have.
>>146266645
Pellet shots are generally for trash monsters and annoying people online. Normal is for straight up damage. You'll be using these a lot. Pierce 2 will be a huge source of DPS. You want to fire pierce shots at a position where all the things will hit. Generally, this means hitting most monsters right in the head so it travels down to their tail. Pierce 3 is for huge monsters. Once you're out of pierce shots and you've combined all the materials for more pierce shots, move onto normal shots or other ones.
