Incline Monster Hunter World - G-rank edition. Now on PC.

[Valky]

You can thank multiplayer faggots for that.

According to reports Safi'jiiva is a less shit Kulve Taroth:

- Multiplayer oriented;
- No need to run around like a tard collecting tracks to increase pursuit level;
- You're able to pick 3 weapons instead of receiving a bunch of crap; one drop is guaranteed to be of the same weapon type you completed the siege with;
- Each weapon can have a innate set skill bonus, eg 1 point of master's touch.

Pretty meh overall and more rng bullshit for the autists.

Is there anything to do in preparation for Iceborne?

Humble's selling this for $24 currently. As someone who liked Dragon's Dogma, and enjoyed the Witcher series sense of being a monster hunting badass, but didn't like Dark Souls, should I be interested in this? Also, I see talk here that implies multiplayer, yet Steam shows it as a single-player game. Who is telling the truth ???????

the combat is a lot more dragons dogma than dark souls. I thought it was a fun game, although a lot of times I felt like I was winning battle just through having gear upgrades and no so much getting better at actually playing

You can group with up to 3 people for a party size of 4.

wtf are you smoking it is even more dark souls than dark souls when it comes to combat. DD is almost arcade game compared to DS or MH

Depends what you didn't like in Dark Souls. It if was combat then this is not game for you because it is even more Dark Souls than Dark Souls when it comes to combat. If it was world and everything else this will be best game for you as no game other than MH feels so great when you beat those bosses.

My experience was very similar to this blogger's: link.

I enjoyed Dark Souls combat in general; I didn't enjoy the sensation of "Well you better find a new button on the controller because none of the buttons you've been using for 6 hours are gonna work now ... and oh yeah it's going to take you 45 minutes of tedious repetition before you can even try again. Whoops, didn't find the button this time either? OK, another 45 minutes of walking back."

 

[Valky]

Haha holy shit that blogger is borderline retarded.

Monster Hunter is not like that. It's an action game and exploration isn't as important. Better be read for lots of fighting because that's the core loop:kill monsters, upgrade, kill more monsters.

 

[sullynathan]

With Iceborne, there's a lot more monsters, so content isn't an issue.

Beware, of you liked DD combat, this will feel sluggish and clunky ( even it is not actually)
The main factor contributing to this is that a lot of weapons have looong animations in wich you are stuck and can't regain control of your character until the animation ends.
So one of the most important thing is timing and positioning. A lot of times you get hit you'll think you could do nothing, and whike that is true in that moment you saw the attack coming, the game is actually punishing your mistake you did 3 seconds before.
If you think you can enjoy a more tactical and less "action" combat go ahead and buy it. If you want instant reactivity this game is not for you

 

[Anthedon]

Iceborne is out in two days (for PC, that is). From what I've gathered so far it's pretty gud. Any reasonable objections to ?

 

[Vorark]

It can't be any worse than launch day MHW on PC... hopefully.

Probably gonna pick this up 4 to 6 months from now; enough time to fix bugs, add Rajang & Stygian and a small discount.

Steam exclusive with extra DRM from denuvo.

 

[Perkel]

Just released.

 

[Anthedon]

Regarding mods:

Looks like the patch includes Iceborne even if you don't own it. I haven't bought it yet and the download is still 40GB.

 

[Perkel]

hmm considering i don't actually like to play online in MH i think i will go for cheap shared account version without online. It costs like 4$

 

[Maggot]

OP should be shot in the head for the title of this thread.

Edit: Now it's better

This morning I was playing at around 60 fps and now after updating I'm getting 1-2 fps on the main menu. Fuck.

Glad I decided to wait on this instead of D1P.

Yeah, that's about what I'm running too. Glad I decided to hold off on buying Iceborne for a couple months. Pretty unacceptable.
