You're the Yin to my Yang. Or something.



I'll explain why I hate Brachy and Glav:

THEY MOVE LIKE BUNNY RABBITS

STOP HOPPING EVERYWHERE WHEN I'M TRYING TO HIT YOUR HEAD/TAIL

*Brachy whiffs an attack and then instantly hops to the side*

Glavenus does this too except his hitbox is narrow and even worse to hit.

Awful monster designs. Definitely the worst ones alongside that bastard Owl Malfestio. Malfestio is like someone at Capcom was having a really bad day and decided to design the most annoying monster EVER.

Yeah but Brachy has sick music man

 

[Kinsei]

Will definitely have to disagree on that one. Brachydios and Glavenus are two of my favorite monsters to fight in the entire series.

Then again im a weirdo and think both of the Raths can die in a fire. Never liked fighting them.

I am right there with you on the Raths, Los in particular needs to go extinct.

 

[Kyoufu]

Brachy is like the best new monster they have designed in some time. The stuff in gen 4 is meh compared to him. Such a unique creature design. God, Gen 3 was so fucking good.

He's a *hop* pretty *hop* good *hop* design *hop*

Insufferable to fight. Good riddance, Brachy!

 

[Loris146]

Best monster are Nargacuga , Rathalos , Tigrex , Fatalis .Kushala Daora

 

[Night Angel]

All these insiders and 4chan leakers for months for this and MvC. Nothing on DMC. Itsuno runs a tight ass shit.

Can't leak what don't exist.

 

[ChronotriggerJM]

I'm curious as to what the monster roster will be like for worlds. Good confirmation on weapons though.

 

[Mupod]

Went back through some of my old posts regarding how a 'seamless' MH would play out. Clearly Capcom stole my ideas.

Watched the extended trailer, some interesting stuff there. You see area transitions happening via things like the monster breaking a wall triggering a rush of water sending you to a new arena. They really need to show us the full flow of a normal hunt.

As much as i disagree on the Brachy hate, this still made me laugh a lot.

Out of curiosity, what weapon do you usually use? And what are some of your favorite monsters as well?

 

[Kyoufu]

Rathalos used to be incredibly annoying to fight in the older games. Rathalos World Tour was a meme for a long time until they toned it way down.

He's tame now in comparison, so I don't mind it anymore.

My favourite monster design is Teostra. Fun to fight against and that MUSIC OH MY GOD.

I used Lance for a very long time in the Portable/Tri games but in MHX/Gen I've been rocking the Adept Long Sword, which is very fun.

 

[Loris146]

Base Rathalos is not a issue.

Silver Rathalos on the other hand...

I don't like you.

Rathalos is one of the worst fights in the series imo. That thing is not fun at all.

Nargacuga is fire though. Tigrex is okay. Kushala Daora is okay too. I prefer Teostra.

 

[Playsage]

I'd really love an isolated instance of a Horizon crossover. Obviously not cannon of course lol.

MH on handhelds had several crossover special outfits, so this could happen.

 

[Runner67]

I doubt it. I'm expecting a Tri esque roster with expansions fleshing out the roster (along with adding new zones). They need to completely revamp any pre gen 3 monsters in terms of movement, animations, and hitboxes to put them in this game and that's a ton of work.

I doubt they will go that route fully again. Even 3G added tons of old monsters on Tri. Plus, Gen/XX already revamped most of the 3rd Gen monsters for verticality. But yea, let's wait and see i guess

Los is still incredibly annoying. So many good multi monster quest speedruns ruined because Los is a dick and won't land.

Speaking of speedruns I hope arena quests and special quests are in this. One of my favorite MH memories was finally getting an S rank solo on a 4 player arena quest.

 

[Freeglader]

I feel like I've been waiting for MH to come to PS4 for so long. I'm really looking forward to this!

[Tom_Cody]

I have very mixed feelings about this. I will have to learn more about the game before I pass judgement.

 

[Sesha]

Then the title Itsuno is working on that he's revealing this year doesn't exist either, or Itsuno himself

Neither do we

It's all a dream

Who's dreaming all this? You are, about me. And me about you.

We're all a subconsciousness experiencing itself subjectively

this post never happened, nor did this thread. and yet it did, except it didn't

Has there been a gameplay demo yet or are we waiting till 9:45 pm est. On playstation stream?

No demo yet. I'm pretty sure the first time we'll see proper gameplay is during the live stream on the 20th.

 

[foxuzamaki]

No it isn't. There are currently no plans to do so at Capcom so don't get your hopes up. Or just hope that Nintendo steps in.

...What is capcom doing?

Is there a reason what is being said is treated as true? Does this guy work at capcom?



Anyways. World looks awesome but im gonna be disappointed if I dont get a localized Switch version. Ill probably just buy the japanese version if thats the case.

 

[Qurupeke]

I think I didn't see this mentioned here, but there's a Monster Hunter World section on Playstation Live @ 5:45 PM. Not sure if it has gameplay, or if it's just an interview.

All we know is that he leaked the title of MHW before the copyright, so he has some inside knowledge. He hasn't been wrong yet, though.

He predicted meltdowns and that's certainly happening.

Thanks!!!!

Yeah, Im excited for a PS4 monster hunter but ill be quite surprised that a Switch localization isnt in the cards. Id love to get both but at least the Switch is region free.

At least we will get more info out of it no matter what it is.

 

[ShemhazaiX]

I disklike the art in the trailer emensely. The fuzzy T. rex is legit the worst large monster design I've seen in the series. I have more than enough info to judge those things. You don't have to share the opinion, but I certainly can judge the game based on what Capcom has decided is their best foot to put forward.

So what was your stance on Glavenus? Because this is just a Glavenus with an olfactory organ and without the sword tail.

Personally my favourite designs in Monster Hunter are the more grounded designs. I love the Raths, Tigrex, Glavenus and Astalos (I mean, Astalos is pushing it, but it's basically just a spikier lightning variant of the Raths). Worst designs in the game are the ones that try to be way too fantastical. Like Mizutsune, Kirin and Zinogre. They can just die in a fire.



So, what are we hoping for in the way of weapon changes? The combat looks like it's staying fairly intact with its methodical nature, but they're probably going to mix up the weapon moves a bit since it's such a huge revamp.
Personally I'm hoping for a bit of a rework on lances. My preference would be for them to remove the hops, or at least add a forwards hop. Also, as a gunlance main, would love them to mix up how gunlances gunfire works. Maybe give a bit more control over aiming with it since now we have dual sticks to work with.
Obviously bowguns are going to be revamped since we're in a position where the players will have much more control over aiming. Looks like they're pursuing rapid fire as the new way that LBG works. Wonder whether they'll make it so that all LBG fire is basically rapid fire now, or whether it will still be ammo dependent. I mean, personally I'd prefer if LBG was now a fully automatic weapon, and has a run and gun playstyle, whilst HBG focuses on the heavy artillery backline. Don't know if I'd remove siege mode or not.

Can't wait for more info on the 20th.

 

[PotionBleue]

According to the video, they removed the jingle that plays while cooking meat. This greatly saddens me.

I don't really care about the monster argument either way but you're comparing the monster in the video to this:

?

The only similarity is that they're both T Rex variants.

 

[Gilby]

I hope (and assume) that there's more colourful armour and monsters in the game too. Looks too "gritty" right now.

 

[Magicpaint]

If there's no Felyne kitchen I will be even sadder!

 

[chicken_pasta]

Someone on twitter confirmed it's still in.

 

[Thoraxes]

That sucks, enough so that despite really liking the look of MH World I might skip it on principle. Capcom making Switch MH doesn't matter if I can't play it.

For me the lack of local co-op makes World an absolute no-buy.

 

[Vital Tundra]

The great sword animations are the exact same as past MH titles. I think I can stop worrying about the game.

Same. Add brachy to the worst ones too with those booger punchers.

frontier designs

Yea those were terrible.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

There's no local co-op? That's a death sentence if true.

edit: nevermind, i'm being silly. Of course there's no co-op on XBone and PS4.

 

[ShemhazaiX]

Will be honest, I didn't remember Glavenus being as spiky as it is.
Either way, I'm actually a huge fan of this new T-Rex design. The dinosaur designs were my favourites anyway.

Just the sheer amount of detail in the textures. The fur. The dimpled turkey skin. It's beautiful. If they can make everything look this detailed without feeling over designed, I will love the majority of monsters in the game.

For me the lack of local co-op makes World an absolute no-buy.

So, even if it had the same great gameplay and you could just play with your friends whenever you wanted, rather than just when you had time to physically meet up, you'd pass on the game?

 

[Thoraxes]

It's a home console+PC game. I'd assume there isn't really any way to just bust out my system on the go during breaks/lunch at work and play with my coworker, or do a couple hunts with a family member I got into the series with 4, who I always played with locally.

This.

I *really* want XX to be localized, because an MH that I can't take to my friend's house may as well not exist

Spoiler

Except as a potential cause for XX not coming over

Laptops.

That is in no way as sleek or elegant as just releasing XX on the Switch over here and you know it.

 

[Sangetsu-II]

Honestly, without the jingle all my meats would be burnt.

 

[Khezu]

I liked the new T rex monster a lot.

But I'm also in the camp that prefers them to be more simple.

A lot of the newer monsters cross the line into just being dumb as hell looking.

 

[Morrigan Stark]

No it isn't. There are currently no plans to do so at Capcom so don't get your hopes up. Or just hope that Nintendo steps in.

Are you fucking kidding me? I hope that's not true, because I don't think this MH is shaping up to be what MH fans want...

I know it isn't. I wasn't being particularly serious. But then, I'm also not going to not buy a game I love just because it drops one feature. I mean, sure, local play is fun, but I don't see how it can be a deal breaker if you love MH anyway. It's not like people don't play other games online with their friends just fine. No one complains that you can't local play League of Legends.

 

[Tengrave]

But it is though. Everything they have said so far is exactly what a lot of us are looking for as the franchise evolves.

 

[NSESN]

Matrixman.Exe still not talking. I am really worried about MHXX.

 

[Just someone. Somewhere]

Don't speak for me. I am a MH fan and MH worlds looks promising. Thanks.
