Monster Hunter World

[OhGoy]

It's the only weapon that goes with the armor set, which of course gets priority. I want it for the sake of having it.

I main gunlance.

Oh, well in that case nevermind. Matter o' fact, you deserve a for using a gun instead of some weaboo sword.

At this point, I'm just experimenting, but according to the guild card I've used the charge blade and insect glaive the most, with the latter being slightly ahead. So I guess I'd be a glaive main. I'm about to check out either the lance or the gunlance. If I enjoy the experience, I might even become a gunlance main myself.

I highly recommend Lance. I stick with Gunlance solely because I've used it since the days it sucked ass.

Can people give me an honest, no bullshit answer?

Does the game run fine on a launch PS4?

Yes. I gave up on waiting for pc and it works fine.

 

[AutistocLolCow]

Waiting on the PC release since I don't have, or want, a console.

Tied between insect glaive and hammer. insect glaive since they're taking it in a really interesting direction. Hammer is the classic punisher because everyone loves having a hammer bro around.

Same.. the game looks fun.

Also having an adorable companion sells it for me.

Is there any way to keep Rathian from continuously ambushing me while I'm fighting Ratholos? Every hunt I do for Ratholos, this bitch appears multiple times and forces me to run away so I don't get gang-banged. It's bad enough that every flying monster decides to fly away again and again, but I start to lose it when I have to take 10-20 minutes more to finish a hunt because of the endless ambushes.

Throw poop at her.

I'm not joking. Making a bunch of dung pods and fire them at her every time the dumb bitch shows up. She'll leave.

i'm frustrated that i didn't think of using the item with "causes certain monsters to flee," in the description to "cause the rathian to flee"

god fucking damnit

 

[OhGoy]

YEESSSSS, I FINALLY CRAFTED THE FULL BRIGADE SET

Even though I had to solo every arena quest multiple times, I still made it. But more importantly, I'll never have to come back to the arena AGAIN. FUCK YEAH! ... wait a minute... oh no.

fuck

 

[Jaimas]

At least you're not trying to farm Val Hazaak

I always throw a few in the Jhen Moran/Dahren Moran's mouth and it never fails to make me smile. It probably does nothing like petting Poogie but that's my ritual lol

Easiest elder dragon git gud scrub

Even without maxing out "Effluvia Resistance," he doesn't dare compare to the travesties that are the "Radobaan + Uragaan" and "Black Diablos + Diablos" arena quests.

I'd imagine both of these quests are still nightmarish with two people. And yet, because my internet is shit, I have to do these solo if I want the Guild Cross set. If these quests get too annoying, I think I'll just settle for the Guild Cross Circlet beta. (it has "Divine Blessing" lvl. 2 and three decoration slots )

Monster Hunter: World is a great game, but god damn... there's some shit in here that really makes me want to rip my dick off.

 

[SP 199]

Double Beetlejuice makes me wanna cry

 

[Echo_Ender]

It's fun. And addictive. But the game itself feels kinda rushed and a lot of stuff feels like it was tossed out half-baked.

Certain weapons are blatantly overpowered for their tier, Part HP scaling in multiplayer is busted as all hell and quality-of-life skills like Earplugs and Windproof got their costs cranked up too high.

There are a few technical snags and general frustrations, too. I've been glitched out of combos, got stuck in midair, ect. And the whole "Open World" thing usually has you getting gangbanged by multiple monsters so often that it feels frustrating instead of cool or immersive.

Hitboxes range from impressively tight like on Rathian or Odogaron to hair-pullingly busted like Diablos, Radobaan, and Deviljho.

The Vaal Hazak set effect was the greatest idea ever, and it allows me to be reckless.

Does anyone besides me actually prefer when a monster interferes with your hunt? I tend to get pretty lucky and they end up hitting each other for a serious chunk of damage. It can suck sometimes when there's 3, but that's always been part of the challenge for me

hell no

...I mean, it was actually fine at first. I was fine with it up until around the halfway point of High Rank. Before that, it was entertaining when Bazelgeuse came out of nowhere and carpet bombed everything to oblivion. "Holy shit, where did he come from? This is ridiculous. He's fucking everything up," is what I would think when he appeared.

After a while, though, it starts to get tedious. Monsters who interrupted my fight were no longer a cool spectacle, but another obstacle. A lot of the time they wouldn't even fight the other monster and they'd attack me instead (FUCK YOU, RATHIAN AND RATHALOS). Thank god dung pods are a thing (and thank you, @Jaimas, for reminding me that they even existed ).

 

[LazloChalos]

Havent touched it gor a week, ned to get back to it.

Any word on additional monsters? I miss the original tigrex from mhf2 rather than the later versions, guvker never let up.

 

[Skitty Pryde]

...please don’t kill me for being so very late to this thread. I finally got it on PC a couple weeks ago and Jesus it’s consumed me. Currently farming for Xeno’jiiva armor because I can’t help but to farm each new monster until I can make its armor set. What are your favorite new and old monsters? I’m really hoping they bring back gore magala!

 

[MasterDisaster]

Has to switch to Xboxone a few weeks back and had to start again from square one; not a problem, because hammer is God, but a second round brought something to my attention that was blinded by splendor the first time around; all of the forced tutorial shit and unskippable cutscenes. Having to go in an expedition to find a camp or waste time seeking mandatory tracks (elder dragons) in order to progress just feels like padding. In previous incarnations you were thrown into the world and that was it, better get to hunting. Tutorials shouldn't be mandatory in any game (I love how Vermintide does it as an optional prologue) and MHW first foray into it is just sad.
