Monster Hunter

[stoic roost]

|| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TEbesY1x5A&ab_channel=IGN || just give us the game already

[bright nimbus]

i cant wait to get carried by you guys when i come back

[chrome anvil]

nah bro trust game is easy

itll be like rise where you run down the entire game with starting armor

and you kill a monster once you get 3 armor pieces

so you just make what you can for defense and move on

[finite zephyr]

most likely true unfortunately

them massively overbuffing drops was a terrible mistake

removing kill only drops was a terrible mistake

[sweet kiln]

i'll def be doing that till high rank at least

low rank u just wanna get outa there

[sweet kiln]

im debating if its worth using GL focus attack now

u gotta be like right next to the thing cause it has hella start up and if the mob moves a dick hair u whiff and thats shit load of dmg gone

[gilded wagon]

watching this give me cancer already

[faint light]

Ive never used that move in the beta. For the amount of time required to do it, i can just use a double wsb combo

[sweet kiln]

if they took out the 500 little hits in it

and just did a blast

it would be fine

but they want u to ramp like come on , or at least make its hitbox bigger so u dont have to be like sucking the wounds dick lol

[gilded wagon]

from TSC clip seem like heck no

frame too long

i saw some jp make a table for focus move

GL is like 5 sec alone

[sweet kiln]

yeah its a shame

just make it a big blast or something the ramp up is the problem

[gilded wagon]

most focus move is not worth

[faint light]

GL doesnt need the focus move anyway. You either do hop,reload,slam, burst repeat

Or double wsb

[gilded wagon]

you might wanna do focus move after some monster atk move

that have small time window after big move

it will stagger them for a few sec

[sweet kiln]

like in the arkveld speed run killed it in 6mins

he only did focus attack once

[faint light]

Or this https://youtu.be/RLcVvyL2FvQ?si=yqTnCZBoQ084OHH9

[gilded wagon]

better lance charge

[sweet kiln]

looks like max got to play early

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_hL63sbhcs&t=1s

[boreal crane]

he says ps5 performance is rly good, so surely that means it'll run great on pc too right fellas?

[random zealot]

[sweet kiln]

gross

that gameplay is actually so terrible i cant watch lol

[random zealot]

watch the performance be even worse day one because of denuvo

[sweet kiln]

nah it wont

[wicked galleon]

Dogass devs dogass game

[sweet kiln]

[boreal crane]

i'll probably be fine at least, even the beta ran well for me so i have hopes

[sweet kiln]

if you are afraid of denuvo heres what u do

u put ur tin foil hat on and join the rest of the cult on steam forums

[outer gulch]

[sour wigeon]

guys

this beta doesnt carry the progress into official release right

[boreal crane]

no

you get an item pack and like a bracelet or whatever for participating in the beta

that's it

[sour wigeon]

ah man

my friend had performance issues just loading the game, they have giga shit graphics, my cousin with 2070 cant even load the game

what about you drikke

[boreal crane]

i can run it at a solid 60fps on a 4070 ti

so if the game's even a bit more optimized at launch and i never drop below 60 i'll be perfectly happy

[sour wigeon]

yeah... 4070ti is kinda insane

i got 4060ti and running alright

[boreal crane]

i had other issues with the game though

for example i couldn't discord voice call with my friends or the sound, including the voices got fucked up

rly annoying stuff

googled it and was pretty common of an issue too

and of course the lobby system was pretty bad and i had issues joining them and they had issues joining me

both through finding the lobby or the lobby id

[sour wigeon]

i had that issue in world (steam), it was even worse playing on ps4

[boreal crane]

yeah they rly can't seem to nail the multiplayer stuff even after al this time lol

there's always something

though i guess rise was actually fine surprisingly

[sour wigeon]

i doubt theres optimization at launch, since its only less than a month away

[boreal crane]

i mean the beta is a build from like 2024

and we know there's optimization

[random zealot]

tfw got a free extra copy of wilds with my monitor

ordered psu 2 days too early to get a 2nd free copy

THEY JUST REVEALED BLANGONGA HOLY CRAP

X · Feb 14, 2025, 2:28 AM

Blangonga confirmed in the jp announcement

[gilded wagon]

💩

[elfin plover]

https://tenor.com/view/happy-cat-silly-cat-happy-cat-smile-gif-11748501437476694103

My friend was coping that he was in it since he saw the snow area

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1168966150353338502/1272229100622319687/reaction_gif.gif

[steep grotto]

yo what happen

[gilded wagon]

he died exact the moment i pull the rock down

timing was too perfect

[random zealot]

Holy, IG got an offset attack now

and its the dragoon dive

[wicked galleon]

They added it in this beta?

[random zealot]

no

just something people who got to try a newer preview build have said

[wicked galleon]

https://tenor.com/view/yakuza-gif-18148683

I remember they announced it shortly after the first beta test

I hoped i’d get to try it this beta

[random zealot]

they announced that it will have more aerial bounces but nothing about the offset attack

[wicked galleon]

Nah they did, I remember seeing it in this chat
https://vxtwitter.com/quirklessstoner/status/1869754115791999163?s=46&t=52ujTqmvUKlmUPvXUvNd0w

At the end

[random zealot]

but thats not the dive

[wicked galleon]

Oh shit I see

That sounds like it’ll be hard to time but it’ll be so cool

[finite zephyr]

parry spam the game

[earnest veldt]

[sweet kiln]

think ima try SNS today

[sly phoenix]

might main gs cause offset attacks and perfect blocks are so safisfying

[random zealot]

apparently CB is also getting some buffs that werent in the preview builds

[faint light]

i hope they buff saed

[random zealot]

I like it when the weapons isnt all saed spam

[boreal crane]

yeah i hated saed spam

i like mh4u cb the most so far

[random zealot]

counter aed machine

[boreal crane]

yessir, use those guard points, get a hit in and slow and steady until you stun the monster so you can just spam axe form

then maybe saed once when the monster goes to sleep or something

[faint light]

it wont be saed spam in wilds tho since the move is locked behind guard points or a long string of moves

if the move gets buffed, the gameplay will be more like gp -> saed

[gilded wagon]

tried new weapon
dual blade
how tf do i timing the dodge
dmg too weak
yeah imma just back to gl

[finite zephyr]

Play swaxe

Realize it's literally just counter spam

Turn game off

[random zealot]

rise swax was counter spam if anything

[gilded wagon]

i would take world one

without spamming zsd

[finite zephyr]

Yeah base world swaxe was nice you used both modes a lot

Both weapons have the problem where you want to spend as much time as possible in one mode

[sweet kiln]

normal lance is pretty fun

but holy moly the sharpness goes so fast

[sly phoenix]

it's getting buffed pretty hard in actual release

[sweet kiln]

the wep plays fine

its just the sharpness

[sly phoenix]

it felt bad to play cause the big counters were extremely slow

while gunlance got basically everything

[sweet kiln]

im either playing this or GL probably

leaning on GL

[sly phoenix]

they buffed lance so everything chains into either perfect block or the charge counter

[gilded wagon]

iceborne do buff hella a lot to sa

include explosive when hitting your teammate

in wild rn i dont see the point to buff the axe mode at all

since Y-Y-Y fill almost full gauge

[sweet kiln]

anyone know how to change chat settings

i cant find it anymore

[earnest veldt]

Monster hunter ? More like parry hunter

[gilded wagon]

since rise

[faint light]

raw db is such a meme. best arkveld run i can see is 2x the time of weapons like gl,ls,hbg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oa6eaj_Bdns

[gilded wagon]

i cant really get into db

dmg number too small for me

[faint light]

im still gonna main it tho. forever a db main with some gl on the side

[gilded wagon]

me like big fat explosive number

imma just usual

[finite zephyr]

bow is so idiotically overpowered

[gilded wagon]

SA (if they finally make it good)
GL
CB (if they put offset to axe mode)
HBG LBG bow

i was make a cursed hbg support build back in base world

3 quicksheathe

sticky

sleep + paralysis round

aoe heal

and it remind somehow monster in base world had less stun resist

i could keep stun them easier compare to iceborne with lbg sticky retard meta

[sweet kiln]

yeah i only played DB but im def going GL now

lance is a close 2nd its also pretty banging

[gilded wagon]

i never rock with lance

somehow it is not satify enough

[faint light]

lance gameplay puts me to sleep

[gilded wagon]

poke*3 > step repeat

still wanna see how lance improve in real build

i cant commit to gs that much

[sweet kiln]

i just wanna kill me some dinosaurs

[gilded wagon]

gs is fun

bit dd2 warrior ruined me

[gilded wagon]

https://fixupx.com/kenk03061/status/1891098217141411856?t=TQk_SSXdVa6rLhciDx12Fw&s=19

bring back ledge meta

[finite zephyr]

no lets not

ledge meta is cringe

remove all ledges

i hate that shit

"clamber animation"

die cause you can't roll

feelsgoodman

[boreal crane]

yeah this is bringing back big bow at nergigante vibes

[outer gulch]

[gilded wagon]

[finite zephyr]

show weapon cheater

[gilded wagon]

gs

[gilded wagon]

solo kill finally

[stoic roost]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1262820314895745186/1314260210390667344/image0.gif

[sweet kiln]

10 days baby

[random zealot]

free game

[finite zephyr]

[elfin plover]

[stoic roost]

Mh discord is doing giveaways of the game btw

[sweet kiln]

i bought it 3 months ago cause i was worried they might run outa keys lmao

[stoic roost]

[sweet kiln]

i need to mess with my char more but im lazy tbh

just made blonde bimbo

[gilded wagon]

https://youtu.be/Qmaz7gJDTLs?si=oF3ifAaLO4NRUTLE

🗣️ parry meta

game bad - atriax

ngl i somehow vibe with gs

[sly phoenix]

i like the gs counter meta

it's like a safer ls

[gilded wagon]

im fine with gs offset attack

didnt like how hammer need to do 2 attack first

SA timing is weird af

welp they mentioned gonna buff it

CB axe mode need it

also with new guard cancel "tech" gs very safe to play now

tl;dr just hold movement key + guard button
https://youtu.be/VKTEc-qb9JE?si=Kow7Douson6pS_iW

[finite zephyr]

Parry equals cringe

[sweet kiln]

[finite zephyr]

Parry is just dei for other weapons

Tbh

[gilded wagon]

rise is cringe bcuz parry

(it really does)

fucking bomb for wirebug parry meta

[gilded wagon]

https://fixupx.com/monsterhunter/status/1891563266691731639?t=8igtfQCnf4yjv5hZWmEevw&s=19

oh hey its @sensei favorite youtuber lead gs team

[sly phoenix]

tcs doing like 20 more dmg in the beta compared to 2nd charge attack felt bad though

at least they said they were buffing it

[sweet kiln]

yeah GS is looking decent

[gilded wagon]

if you didnt stick into old tcs playstyle

its lit

[sly phoenix]

tcs is still a good move to get out once in a while

the reward just feels bad landing it after an offset attack

i could just charge the first part of the combo instead and only miss out on like 40 dmg

[gilded wagon]

i shouldve try more in beta

2nd charge into horizon swing

[sly phoenix]

ye you can also tackle into offset which was nice

[gilded wagon]

i didnt use tackle that much at all in wild

except tcs > roll into tackle

[sly phoenix]

the damage reduction on tackle is so ass

it's better to guard

[sweet kiln]

wasnt tackle like to help maintain ur charge or some shit

[gilded wagon]

perfect guard can connect into 2nd charge

offset mitigrate more dmg

[sly phoenix]

offset goes into tcs

[gilded wagon]

deal more dmg also

[earnest veldt]

Wtf Aussies got their physical copies already

Not like they can play it anyways since there is probably a day 1 patch

[gilded wagon]

[sly phoenix]

damn now we wait 10 days

at least i got a pretty decent arkveld kill without trapping

[gilded wagon]

https://youtu.be/sEAQZPlOPYI?si=nB6tgjt0tpl833Ic

[sour wigeon]

uhh, beta closed? shieee

[sweet kiln]

yea

less than 10 days now

but fucking whats it called

fatal fury? beta is in like 2 days at least

[sour wigeon]

huh? another monster fighting game?

[sweet kiln]

no lol

[stoic roost]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsDyO_bpoRg

Spoilers

[sweet kiln]

https://www.twitch.tv/monsterhunter

they doin shit

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/430495288235393048/1341493717944766495/image.png?ex=67b632e2&is=67b4e162&hm=5532353345beb075a453d61f1f3c9deaf59cf622677f3645f19e4cfb01e2a50e&

damn

[gilded wagon]

ps5 on performance mode

looks good enough

[finite zephyr]

Console cucks

[gilded wagon]

atleast it is not 20 fps

[boreal crane]

honestly i'm still devastated about lance

i watched gunlance footage and they rly gave that weapon so much

i just look like a clown running around with lance instead of gunlance, i hope the changes on launch are good

[sweet kiln]

only downside to GL is how long its combo is

not to mention the shitty focus attack but ye

[gilded wagon]

i got used to saed

so it isnt that long for me

[sweet kiln]

i regret not trying GS in the beta tbh

[boreal crane]

GS looked real strong tbh with the new guard mechanic as well as being able to change direction of charged attacks

or i guess not strong but a lot comfier

[sweet kiln]

yeah im gonna try it in launch early on

before i commit to GL

yeah focus mode lets u like 360 ur charge slash

[gilded wagon]

with offset and buff to guard, you can play much more aggressive

i did guard the big arkveld move with it

[boreal crane]

yeah guard mechanic seems rly strong

[sly phoenix]

gs is very strong

[boreal crane]

it basically just works like a pretty large window parry doesn't it

[sly phoenix]

perfect guard and offset attacks

[boreal crane]

gonna make all block weapons that have it feel smoother to play

especially when it comes with bigass perks like gunlance reloading all its shells

[sly phoenix]

ye perfect guard feels very strong

especially with the clashes for free dmg

[sweet kiln]

yeah on GL its better to block than dodge arkvelds triple explosions

[sly phoenix]

gs after clash goes straight into tcs

[sweet kiln]

ye

[sly phoenix]

even if you miss the perfect guard you still get regular guard which is better than getting smoked by a monster

[boreal crane]

wonder if it's not gonna feel way too strong, especially for base game

no g rank yet

[sly phoenix]

it definitely is

especially if they add the healing gimmicks from world

[boreal crane]

only 9 days till we know for sure

getting pretty close now

[sly phoenix]

they better make improvements to the performance from the beta

[boreal crane]

yeah we alrdy know there are

the benchmark was more accurate of how launch performance would be

and we at least know console performance is also a lot better than the beta from previews

[sly phoenix]

this is the same capcom that treats pc as 3rd class citizens

dragon's dogshit 2

[boreal crane]

tbh doesn't dragon's dogshit run even worse on console lol

the whole game is just not it

[sly phoenix]

it ran better on console

they were getting steady frame rate while pc players with insane specs were getting absolute trash

[boreal crane]

they've had a lot of time on their new engine now and no more excuses when their other divisions have no problems making good running games on it like resident evil and dmc5

[sly phoenix]

at least we didn't get a mh pc port 1 year after

[boreal crane]

so if wilds pc port is also godawful i'm gonna be pretty pissed at capcom

[sly phoenix]

ye

as long as they don't fuck it up a 3rd time

[boreal crane]

well at least for mh games running on RE engine we're 1 for 1

world was still on the old engine and rise's pc port had no issues

[sly phoenix]

if they can port a switch game to pc surely they can port a modern console game to pc

[sweet kiln]

at least for once PC and console versions

launching at the same time lol

rise and worlds were like half a year apart roughly

[boreal crane]

worlds was kinda fucked though, they had extra time for the pc port and still came in hot out the oven and rly bad lol

[sweet kiln]

world had like

insane loading times

other than that it was ok for me

[sly phoenix]

it also had the explosion thing where it melted people's pc and crashed the game

[sweet kiln]

crossplay in this one too actually which is very big

that is the reason i never tried new world lmao

[sly phoenix]

teostra was an asshole cause of the release problems

[boreal crane]

yeah crossplay is real nice

[sweet kiln]

when i heard that game was blowing up cards i was like nah im good

[boreal crane]

world at launch online was terrible on pc cuz everyone was new basically in the west

meanwhile on ps launch you got carried by japanese ppl lmao

[sly phoenix]

it was using like 30 threads on sound or some stupid shit

[sweet kiln]

PC also had the mods like

every material in npc

[boreal crane]

worlds crossplay at launch would've been such a big boon

[sly phoenix]

dps meters

[sweet kiln]

yeah i want my dps meter

i love comparing my damage

prob wont be 1 for a few days week etc

[sly phoenix]

they have the new end game cards for hunters to see how many offset attacks you hit

that's the real shit

10+ offsets per hunt at least

[boreal crane]

man i'm still just not sure what weapons i'll be using

[sweet kiln]

and then the fucking like charm makers lol

[boreal crane]

i rly do think i'll end up testing everything again except for bowguns cuz i hate bowguns

[sweet kiln]

i had like the best charm in rise 1 in 1,7 billion chance

[sly phoenix]

just play everything

[boreal crane]

i'm still sad the hunting horn dream is dead where you used the buffs and then switched weapon

[sly phoenix]

that's what i did for base world

buffed for hunting horn mains

[sweet kiln]

yea eventually

[boreal crane]

i just like to focus on 1 or 2 weapons at the start

[sly phoenix]

free attack up L sounds retarded anyway

that's so much free dmg for playing a couple songs

[boreal crane]

but can't do that when i don't know which wweapons i want to play

[sweet kiln]

if u have 2 HH do they stack

[sly phoenix]

no

[boreal crane]

and yeah i did think it was way too strong and too good to be true, but still one could dream

[sly phoenix]

the bigger buff replaces the smaller one

[sweet kiln]

yeah that woulda been nuts

[gilded wagon]

perfect guard is pretty much guardpoint with a bit less window

[sly phoenix]

certain attack ups stack though

[boreal crane]

compared to cb at least, that guardpoint came with a risk, feels like perfect guard has very little risk

[sly phoenix]

like demondrugs + might seed will stack

[sweet kiln]

yeah

[boreal crane]

guardpoint with cb you fuck it up, you're in axe form with no shield, slow walk and have to sheath weapon or transform back

[sweet kiln]

im honestly not a huge fan of all the consumables

[gilded wagon]

almost no point to do guardpoint on cb now

[sly phoenix]

they're usually for speedruns

[boreal crane]

yeah it's kinda sad

[sly phoenix]

i don't even use my cat anymore

[boreal crane]

yeah just like parry heavy playstyles in rise, pets kinda just get in the way when you now want to perfect guard don't they

[gilded wagon]

semi

rng based anyway

[sly phoenix]

i think using palico is still a dps increase

[sweet kiln]

i love my cat he will come everywhere with me

[boreal crane]

[gilded wagon]

from when i try to solo arkveld

[boreal crane]

MrMeowington is with me till death

[gilded wagon]

my palico still standing behind me

i still got target most of the time

[sly phoenix]

i didn't use my palico when doing arkveld

ye it still targets you like 80% of the time

[boreal crane]

the palico has like an actual taunt too right? what are its activation conditions

[sly phoenix]

[boreal crane]

it seemed to be mostly (only?) when i get knocked down

but i don't know for sure

[sly phoenix]

it has some built in skills

[boreal crane]

and i guess you could always argue fi you get knocked down it's a skill issue

[sly phoenix]

you can call your dog if you get knocked down

it picks you up onto its back

[boreal crane]

oh right i heard about that but i never did it lmao

[sweet kiln]

im ngl

i do not like the turkey

[boreal crane]

man that's some wirebug recovery shit

[sly phoenix]

ye it saves you sometimes

[sweet kiln]

the dog in rise was way better than this bird

[gilded wagon]

semi

[sly phoenix]

other times you want to lie flat though

[gilded wagon]

it still got you killed if you got rescue in wrong time

[boreal crane]

yeah it actually is just wirebug recovery like, well definitely weaker though

no way it's as strong as wirebug recovery in rise

[sly phoenix]

more recovery options

[gilded wagon]

wirebug is retarded

[boreal crane]

like monsters in rise also had wirebug recovery traps, but it still felt incredibly strong

[finite zephyr]

Monster hunter rise is retarded

[sweet kiln]

i blame nintendo

[boreal crane]

tbh i still think it's my 3rd favourite monster hunter

4u > world > rise for me

[finite zephyr]

It's mu third favorite too I just can't count

[boreal crane]

and i enjoyed the smaller maps of rise a lot more than world, which is still my biggest worry for wilds

[sly phoenix]

chasing arkveld

[finite zephyr]

Just use popup camps

[sly phoenix]

my kill went from like 12 mins to 16 mins cause i was chasing it while it had the skull mark

[boreal crane]

yeah i know a lot of ppl rly enjyo the aspect of actually hunting the monster down but man idk

[sly phoenix]

nah it ran way too often for sure

[boreal crane]

give me back my segmented map, and let me transfer from zone 1 to zone 3 and somehow end up in front of the monster that ran away

[sweet kiln]

[finite zephyr]

Watching the shadow to see which way it went

12head

[sly phoenix]

like if it ran a 2-3 times it'd be fine but arkveld was running like 5 times

[boreal crane]

someone didn't paintball it

[faint light]

world > gu > fu > rise

[boreal crane]

worst part is when you do but it just ran out

[sly phoenix]

knowing spawn zones was the ultimate monster hunting skill back in the day

[boreal crane]

ok i genuinely do not understand putting fu above like 4u elaborate

[faint light]

nah i just never played 4u

[boreal crane]

oh that makes more sense

[finite zephyr]

You just wave at the balloon

And they tell you where it is

[sweet kiln]

my first game was freedom unite on psp

[finite zephyr]

[boreal crane]

mine was freedom 2

tigrex boxart

[sweet kiln]

then generations on 3ds then worlds

[boreal crane]

freedom unite after that with nargacuga

[finite zephyr]

Tigrex is a dogshit fight

[boreal crane]

i like tigrex

[sly phoenix]

back in the old days

[finite zephyr]

So is diablos

[gilded wagon]

mf run up to the hill and went down after you land several hit

[finite zephyr]

Charge spam pogu

[faint light]

ive been trying to finish gu but this game has too much content

[boreal crane]

seeing it on the ice mountain cuz i was forced to carry eggs in quests back then made it a pretty hype fight when you eventually got to it lol

[finite zephyr]

I want the mammoth from gu

[faint light]

never gonna happen

[finite zephyr]

Make him fucking 50 meters tall

[sly phoenix]

egg quests

[finite zephyr]

We keep getting bubble guts instead

[sly phoenix]

mandatory egg quests were so fucked

[boreal crane]

every time, 1 or 2 * quests in mp hub requried an egg quest

[finite zephyr]

Tired of bubble guts

[boreal crane]

every single time

[finite zephyr]

At least astalos was in rise

[faint light]

getting chased by that boar

[boreal crane]

bullfango

[sly phoenix]

boars

those bullfangos used to chase you everywhere back in the day

[finite zephyr]

Yeah but how about when they hit you into the next zone

While the monster ran into a trap

Thus wasting the trap

[boreal crane]

hey worked both ways too, shit saved lives

[faint light]

bullfango with velocipreys

[finite zephyr]

[boreal crane]

bro bouncing me to another zone so i can heal and sharpen up

[faint light]

back when the adds actually tried to kill you

[finite zephyr]

Or bull fango flatten into mosquito stun

[sly phoenix]

back when the adds weren't afraid of big monsters

and helped them beat you up

[boreal crane]

worst part is when you got knocked to another zone, try to heal up but the adds from the other zone alrdy squared up and interrupt you

[finite zephyr]

This happened in world

[sly phoenix]

[faint light]

[finite zephyr]

Jaggis and girros would attack

[boreal crane]

i think worlds and onwards with the turf wars took it too far

[finite zephyr]

The little ones

I do not like turf ears

[boreal crane]

it's flashy and cool but idk it ices me out, i just wanna fight it

[finite zephyr]

It takes the organic shit out of the game

It also removes multi monsters in one area

Just trashing each other and you

Which was great fun

Way better than cutscene

[boreal crane]

naah i hated that shit, i always had dung bombs

[finite zephyr]

You just put a monster between you and the other one

[boreal crane]

honestly the only reason i don't just straight up prefer an arena 1v1 fight is solely because i'm a coward and i needed the zones to run away and heal up

[finite zephyr]

So much free dam

[sly phoenix]

back when rajang blasted your ass just as you entered high rank

[finite zephyr]

Monster riding is the dumbest thing in existence

[sly phoenix]

out of nowhere

[finite zephyr]

Can't believe they added that clown shut

Shit

[faint light]

nah i hate the 2 monster fights

like the double rajang event quest in world

[boreal crane]

but yeah definitely feels there's always ognna be two camps for monster hunter now

[finite zephyr]

Silver rath Golden rath in the arena

[boreal crane]

the organic hunting the monster in its entirety camp and then the "i just want to fight something man i don't want all this other shit"

camp 2 lost a while ago

i've come to terms with that at least but i still hope they never make the maps too big

though i guess we all have mounts now

actually no i'm wrong, rise definitely felt more "i just want to fight the monster" heavy with smaller maps and faster traversal, it just had tons of other issues like wirebug skills/recovery being too strong and monster riding

[finite zephyr]

Yeah I think camp 1 lost long ago

No hot cool drinks

No pickaxe bugnet

No crafting book

Enormous inventory

Infinite restock mid fight via camp

Game literally shows you where the monster is on spawn

[boreal crane]

honestly outside of the hot/cool drinks and the restock i never even considered those other things as part of it as i was just thinking of mainly the monster hunt itself, but you're right on all parts there for the true organic hunt stuff

[finite zephyr]

Knowing which zone certain monsters would spawn in or go to was huge

And that some monsters couldn't go in some zones

But now the game just tells you

[sweet kiln]

they on the map + u got auto move

[boreal crane]

yeah i guess i worded it wrong, cuz knowing where a monster goes to so you can go there before the monster even gets there is definitely a part of an organic hunt AND helps you with "i just want to fight the monster"

[faint light]

this only started with wilds

[boreal crane]

and that stuff was a lot easier to do in old monster hunters

[finite zephyr]

No. It happened in rise

If would be a question mark but it showed you exactly where they were

[sweet kiln]

yeah rise had the icon on the map as ??? if it was new too

u just had to run 2 it

[faint light]

oh rise

[boreal crane]

tbf the way rise played out makes a lot more sense when you look at it as a successor to generations ultimate rather than "mainline" monster hunter

[finite zephyr]

And scout flies didn't show you exactly but you just followed the glowing green line

[faint light]

ive forgotten most of the awful things about that game except for wirebugs

[finite zephyr]

Game was pretty bad

[faint light]

wirebugs are still the worst gimmick they ever did

[boreal crane]

yeah i still think wirebug recovery was a huge mistake

i actually also don't rly like moving while healing either

and sharpening while mounted

[sweet kiln]

sharpening in wilds is hella good too

[boreal crane]

always felt like you had to rly commit to somethin otherwise you eat shit

[sweet kiln]

since its in stages u keep what u get

[faint light]

yea you dont need to mount + sharpen imo

[sly phoenix]

now you can cook in front of the monster instead

[sweet kiln]

i usually sharpen when the mob moves

gotta get on turkey anyways to follow

[boreal crane]

i do too, monsters run away frequently enough

but still it is an option and it is imo a damn good one

[faint light]

thats just on the beta tho

[boreal crane]

just being able to call your mount and sharpen while running circles around the monster

[faint light]

they said the monsters running away wasnt supposed to happen as much

[boreal crane]

i mean in the real game we're als ogonna do more dmg anyway

which leads to the monster still running away plenty, just like world

[sweet kiln]

wot

[boreal crane]

when we have more skills to use and proper elemental weapons etc

[sweet kiln]

yeah i know some weps felt weak cause no ele

[sly phoenix]

db is gonna be crazy with elemental

[sweet kiln]

DB suffered a lot in beta

[sly phoenix]

[faint light]

https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/monster-hunter-wilds-betas-frequently-moving-monsters-were-a-bug-director-says/

[boreal crane]

so yeah i figure when everything is more optimized and our dmg is higher, monsters will still run away plenty

so even if they do lower it from the beta, i think we're not rly gonna notice it that much because of the factors i mentioned

unless it was like reaaaally bugged lol

[gilded wagon]

i think they only make the monster move based on hp trigger
but forgot to add the timer to stay in each stay

normally they only move when almost dead

[boreal crane]

rly? i felt in rise and world they definitely alrdy ran away more

i always just assumed it was to emulate that feeling of hunting it down

[boreal crane]

or perhaps i just feel that way because in games with segmented zone you could just transfer zones in like 3 seconds and end up in front of the monster rdy to fight again

unless it was a flier

then it still takes like 8 seconds to land

[faint light]

it felt normal to me in world. like i was doing some raging brachy yesterday and it switched areas 3 times

[boreal crane]

huh might rly just be me then

probably just still pissed about chasing monsters across the ancient forest

[gilded wagon]

this

you dont notice much since it was closer than wild

in wild

mf run up to hill

you drop 1 rock

[sly phoenix]

[gilded wagon]

ranaway again

[sweet kiln]

[boreal crane]

yeah zones are still a thing in monster hunter but they're just full connected now instead of a loading screen

[gilded wagon]

definitely hp based

[boreal crane]

so you always still have to wait till the monster fully traverses the whole thing to a new zone

[gilded wagon]

the hp triggered based in world was

gold goat

behemoth

the wood guy

raging br thing

red dragon

[finite zephyr]

U forgot

Ur mom

[random zealot]

got my steam code for wilds now

now still waiting for that free copy

[sweet kiln]

not only does barely anyone play lance, lance basically just does forward thrusts so isn't a complete danger horizontally like ls

[finite zephyr]

i dont think it's cross progression

[tender silo]

That's fine

I'll grind it out

Hoping for some zip string spots

2am, capcom wtf

[clever thunder]

Do people in Egypt even know the latest monster hunter?

[finite zephyr]

Yeah komodo dragons are basically great jagras

[sour wigeon]

guys

there is a system benchmark on store page

is this build same as official in terms of performance ?

[finite zephyr]

yes

but be aware that over half the benchmark is a literal cutscene

so it's not at all representative of how the game will run

i averaged like 170fps in the bench

[sour wigeon]

fuck man

[finite zephyr]

in the beta i'm averaging like 80

[sour wigeon]

my cousin dunno if his PC can make it

[finite zephyr]

what are his specs

[sour wigeon]

uh, I7 10gen, 2070

but last build he couldnt even open the game

[finite zephyr]

1080p?

[sour wigeon]

think so

[finite zephyr]

he could run it i dont think it would run very well

like it would definitely dip below 60fps

[sour wigeon]

rip

he might just buy PS5 since its cross-platform i believe

and play with me on steam

[finite zephyr]

you could always let him sign into your steam and try it on his pc

but yeah it'll probably bve rough

[gilded wagon]

the openfield zone is your real fps

where it exit the first town

[sly phoenix]

town fps

[sweet kiln]

bench mark is 0 combat ya

most machines should be able to run the game np tho on medium

[gilded wagon]

tell that to siki

[sweet kiln]

im curious to see how much better the release version is compared to the beta

performance wise

[sour wigeon]

not false, trueeeee

good idea

[finite zephyr]

another day closer

[gilded wagon]

deco confirmed

[sweet kiln]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tlx8ZH_zHT8

arena looking nice

not a fan they keeping like hot and cold drinks in the game

[finite zephyr]

why

auto fail quest shit like that is hilarious

and you can just fly to camp anyways

it's not like 3u/4u where you literally just reset the quest when youf ind out you dont have it

[sweet kiln]

its just tedious stuff that u dont really need like the HP loss in worlds

its not a big deal tho just rather not have it

[finite zephyr]

you have to have some player friction

[gilded wagon]

boredom is real

deco slot like usual

[finite zephyr]

is it rng decos or talismans thoujgh

i prefer rng talisman

[sweet kiln]

im prob just gonna make a talisman if its cancer as the other games

[gilded wagon]

should be deco

it still there

[finite zephyr]

RNG talisman is way less punishing than rng deco

[gilded wagon]

the translation said deco drop from frenzied monster

[sweet kiln]

by week 1 im just hoping for dps meter at least

[gilded wagon]

someone did datamine it have terrible drop table tied to your char

[boreal crane]

talisman was rise and decos were world right?

[gilded wagon]

yep

[boreal crane]

yeah i prefer talisman

[finite zephyr]

yeah world is rng deco

which is awful

[sweet kiln]

then for talisman i'll just make a broken 1 when the mod comes out lol

[boreal crane]

hated the grind in world for the most part

[finite zephyr]

yeah if ti's rnG talisman you can just use a mediocre one to get by

if it's rng deco it's way worse

[gilded wagon]

i never got the bow gem until iceborne update

[finite zephyr]

though i have never understood modding in talismans

[boreal crane]

makes sense thoug hthat wilds would continue off worlds considering the team

[finite zephyr]

talismans do not make or break builds

decorations do

[sweet kiln]

i wonder if rises talisman editor works on this since its the same items

prob not

[boreal crane]

hopefully they at least added some guaranteed form of getting it

[sly phoenix]

there's some deco crafting

[gilded wagon]

this one it show this deco is for weapon slot

[sly phoenix]

some skills are tied to weapon decos and some are tied to armor decos though

so even more rng

[gilded wagon]

guard gem on weapon

also you got new rng

artia part drop from new monster

[sweet kiln]

[gilded wagon]

need same 3 part to craft new artia weapon

[sweet kiln]

[finite zephyr]

honestly at the end of the day

[gilded wagon]

which each weapon type use different part

[finite zephyr]

i hope for more grinding than less

because world and especially rise streamlined part drops

way too much

[gilded wagon]

you could expect the grind for weapon atleast

[finite zephyr]

over ahlf the roster was a 1 and done hunt

because they just shit out materials at an absurd rate

[sweet kiln]

i like being able to target farm but pure RNG on like some already impossible drop rates is some bullshit lol

[gilded wagon]

good thing that you could alchemy and recycle the unused part

[finite zephyr]

3u i had to farm certain shit like 40 or 50 times

that's chad as fuck

[sweet kiln]

yeah this game has alchemy

[finite zephyr]

not this "farm 3 times and if you're unlucky just alchemy it"

shit should be like 2% droprate on carve only

[gilded wagon]

and seem like you can keep enhance it by using same part

like safijiva weapon i guess

[finite zephyr]

also the whole "capture every monster cause better rates"

hate that shit too

or not cutting a tail off

[sweet kiln]

yeah glad thats gone

shit was awful

[finite zephyr]

and getting a tail from body carve

so stupid

if you want the tail cut the tail

break only drops are good for the game

[sweet kiln]

im fine with it having a lower chance

[finite zephyr]

and force players to target different areas

[boreal crane]

tbh i still dislike tails, cuz i used to run weapons that had or just couldn't cut tails in the first place

[sweet kiln]

cause what if ur like a gun or hammer player etc

[boreal crane]

i'm fine with the capture just cuz if you're farming specific stuff, you're probably capturing anyway cuz it's just faster

[finite zephyr]

gun has slicing

[sweet kiln]

just an example

[finite zephyr]

hammer just use another weapon for tail nobody only uses 1 weapon type anyways

[sweet kiln]

hammer cant

[gilded wagon]

hammer and bow

[finite zephyr]

i'd like if skull breaks were tied to blunt weapons

and had specififc drops

so that ls retards would stop crowding the ehead

[boreal crane]

dual blades also just has tons of issues with tails

[gilded wagon]

dont you like bunch of weapon can stun the monster

[boreal crane]

i used to fucking sit on a monster's ass for the entire fight hoping to occasionally be able to hit the tail

cuz otherwise there's no way i'm cutting that off lmao

[finite zephyr]

skill issue for trying to be erin jager

[boreal crane]

that was before eren jaeger move was even in the game

[gilded wagon]

try 5 hunt online
no one cut the tail
solo it and waste like 15 min to chase the tail

[sly phoenix]

sns has problems with tails as well

[finite zephyr]

well that's it isn't it

over half the game uses LS

and yet in multiplayer hunts

you almost never cut the tail off

because they're morons

[sweet kiln]

they should make it so we can chop off its legs

[sly phoenix]

that's cause the multi part multiplier is retarded

[sweet kiln]

new hammer ability

[finite zephyr]

i remember how much CRYING there was that velkhana could still use tail attacks after you cut the tail off

[sweet kiln]

broken kneecaps

[boreal crane]

so yeah just for my sanity's sake, i don't mind being able to get a tail from rewards or whatever lol

[gilded wagon]

ME LS ME HIT FRIENDLY

[finite zephyr]

becuase she would grow ice

[gilded wagon]

[sly phoenix]

unless you have like 3 people hitting the tail

[finite zephyr]

imagine how mad console cucks gonna be

when they get into modded pc player lobbies

and the monster gets 1 shot

[sly phoenix]

[finite zephyr]

or some guy has perfect talisman/deco in 30 hours

[boreal crane]

that doesn't rly happen that often does it

[finite zephyr]

I had it happen a few times in world

[sly phoenix]

those chinese players having suspiciously high damage

[finite zephyr]

the perfect talis/deco shit is pretty common

but i just leave thos elobbies

[boreal crane]

yeah perfect gear was definitely more common, but outright 1shots i don't think i ever experienced that

[finite zephyr]

plus i dont usually start multiplayer until i've beaten the game and farmed out my first endgame set

oh i did

phase 1 safi

insta dead

[sly phoenix]

i've seen it a few times in world cause i was doing sos runs

[boreal crane]

i usually duo or trio with a buddy and maybe play mp to grind stuff when they're not online, but even then i tend to go solo to grind stuff

oh unless they add those boring ass raid monsters again

i'm definitely playing mp for that fuck that shit

[sly phoenix]

ye solo hunts for farm but playing for fun i join sos sometimes

[finite zephyr]

pretty common to get cheaters on behemoth/leshen extreme too

[gilded wagon]

i solo hunt bcuz steam server was broken

[boreal crane]

console world coop was pretty chill tbh, you multiplayer and get paired with 3 japanese fellas and it always goes smooth

meanwhile i had to solo grind nergigante cuz every pc lobby at launch insta failed when he went up in the air

[gilded wagon]

here you got some random instead

[sly phoenix]

ye i always play during jp hours

[gilded wagon]

1 cart and quit

[sly phoenix]

they're pretty good

[boreal crane]

seriously it was brutal on pc, makes sense though considering first time monhun rly broke out in the west so everyone was new

but that didn't make it any less frustrating lmao

[sly phoenix]

i think my fastest arkveld time was just queueing into an sos with like 3 chinese guys

[boreal crane]

and then you also had a bunch of wipes on behemoth cuz these fucking morons want to flex and try to dragoon jump the meteor

thanks asshole

[sly phoenix]

my extremoth kill required us jumping cause one of the rocks broke at the end

[boreal crane]

yeah it's perfectly fine then, you have nothing else you can do

i did it once through sheer luck as well

but i'm talking about the fellas just doing it for fun when there's a perfectly fine rock right there

[sly phoenix]

i learned the timing for it cause extremoth runs were so fucked

one rock broken =

[boreal crane]

man that armor was broken though, everyone before iceborne dropped was just running around in full behemoth armor

[gilded wagon]

then some came in with "just use the gem it is not LS fault"

[sly phoenix]

ye

tbf flinch free lvl 1 is mandatory in multi

i've gotten pounded in the ass by bow users while playing lance before

actual stun lock

[gilded wagon]

mf ask everyone to use ff in first day of launch

[boreal crane]

yeah i always try to keep a few gem slots open for "qol"

i think i had flinch free on all my sets in rise lol

[sly phoenix]

health

[gilded wagon]

while all LS only hitting the head not the tail

[boreal crane]

sometimes also earplugs

[gilded wagon]

cant fix the idiot

[sly phoenix]

ls is counter gameplay now anyway

no point aiming for tail anymore when head has more attacks

[boreal crane]

yeah ever since iceborne basically

hammer andies are not happy about new ls

[sly phoenix]

new ls doesn't even swing half the time

they nerfed all the mvs on their hits

[gilded wagon]

open wound is dumb af

make everyone only hitting head

ignore hzv

[boreal crane]

when quick sheath became basically mandatory for ls, you knew what the weapon was turning into

i don't rly midn though i quite like counter gameplay

[sly phoenix]

ls has some cool new cancel tech as well

[boreal crane]

but basically every weapon in rise and now every weapon with perfect block is basically a sort of counter weapon

[sly phoenix]

spirit slash 3 third hit can be cancelled

and the roundslash stance can be cancelled

and the stance cancels a lot of animations as well

in exchange for basically all mvs being nerfed and red gauge eating another nerf

[boreal crane]

but yeah i think ls is fun, it's only fun in solo though when you actually always have the monster's attention so you can parry

in mp you're standing there sheathing your weapon like a moron while the monster jumps after someone else

[sly phoenix]

that's what the new stance is for

it gives a roundslash into leveling up your gauge

[boreal crane]

it's just less satisfying than the parry though

[sly phoenix]

ye gs is the same way

just gotta hug the person getting targetted

unless it's a fucking bow user cause you know they're standing 30 miles away from the monster

[boreal crane]

wait rly, i feel like every bow player is basicallh a melee guy

they're standing in front of the monster's face just going left and right

[gilded wagon]

not really

[sly phoenix]

that's where optimal range is

but with tracer arrows no

[gilded wagon]

with new mechanic you could just stay futher away

[boreal crane]

yeah i guess i didn't check out bow for wilds

[gilded wagon]

it is freaking dumb af

[sly phoenix]

tracers let you do full dmg from like a mile away

they're getting nerfed on actual release though

[boreal crane]

but it used to at least be close range where you absorb atks with the dodge and just keep spamming shots

[sly phoenix]

and those fuckers steal all the wounds

[boreal crane]

not a big fan of the auto aim stuff and it being long range though

so if that's still how they're gonna play on launch i don't think i'll be maining it at least

[sly phoenix]

nah they changed it back to the dodging close range stuff

tracers are getting giga nerfed

[boreal crane]

then i'll probably still test it out and might still be 2nd weapon

kind of eager to try gunlance though considering i've always preferred lance cuz gunlance was too clunky
