Monster Hunter for PS4

I'd buy a mainline MonHun on PS4. I wouldn't buy the Frontier-like game it's almost certainly going to be if there is one at all.

>>379848190
I would like that as well.

Frontier is on PS4 since last year.

>>379848083
Monster Hunter Frontier already is on PS4

>>379848083
Honestly no.
They'd have to design the game around the core audience of the PS4 which would require them removing aspects of the game that make Monster Hunter, well, Monster Hunter.
I mean needless to say the game isn't very casual friendly.

I have a PS4 but I would rather not have to pay to play online.

>>379848551
Which is another thing. No local play on PS4.

not as long nintendo holds the exclusive rights to the ip currently.
capcom sold them the rights to have monster hunter on the platform of their choosing.
you bet your ass until that contract runs out in maybe another 10 years nothing monsterhunter will touch anything non nintendo.

I would, but I'm not delusional enough to think it could actually happen. MH goes where the money is, and Japan loves the Switch

>>379849234
You know that there's no contract or anything right?

>>379849469
threre is.
it was made shortly after monsterhunter online was released and made a fuckton of money in china. also capcom was dis-satisfied with how badly the android and ios port for mhfu did.
so they talked to nitnendo. wii u monster hunters were a dissapointment. however, handheld monsterhunter games dominated the charts every time they came out in the east and west. but mostly in the east.
so they stuck with nintendo. the deal was made during mh 3g

>>379849234

Nintendildos actually believe this.

You do know the 3DS MonHun games have sold less than the PSP ones, right?

>>379849770
MHO was first revealed in 2013, the year MH4 came out. Alpha didn't come out until few years later.

>>379848480
Monster Hunter is casual as fuck.

Because mobile decimated the handheld industry. Monhan would've fallen even further if it stayed with Sony.

>>379849874
Only Sonygros believe a deal was made.
The best part is that the length of time keeps on getting longer.
First it was going to expire after 4U now it's just jumped to 10 years.

>>379850201
Irrelevant.

>>379850153
Whoops, I read that number wrong on 4 Ultimate. 3.94. Almost 4 million.

>>379848083
Would I? I'd like it, but I have a 3DS so as long as it's still coming to that then I'm not in any rush.
Will it? Of course not.

>>379849234
>Nintenigger delusion

>>379850026
Well that's only half true.
Monster Hunter has seen more success on Nintendo platforms as a whole and with more consistency while only one game on another platform did better

>>379848083

Voted no. To be honest, Monster Hunter is Kusoge, so I don't care where it goes beyond the loo.

Last thread people didn't read the filename. I just let it be because it's funny.

I like MH gameplay and I would buy it on a platform that I own, but after buying a Wii for Tri and immensely regretting it I would not buy a platform specifically to play MH.

So yeah, I would buy it if it's on PS4 but no big deal if it's not.

>>379850716
MH is harder than Souls

>>379850716
there's nothing wrong with a low skill floor if the game has a high skill ceiling

>>379850441
>R-remember the 4.8 gorillion, goyim.
Man, Salesocaust is so boring

>>379850716
MH is far less catering to casuals than the souls series is you can see that in the iframes for the rolls where the souls series has a ton of them but monhun a few.

>>379850698
Doesn't change the fact that every casual and their grandma can easily play the game without problems.

>>379850805
>>379851019
You niggers are high MH is pretty easy with the greatsword/lance. The only difficult thing about it is the ridiculous health pools the big monsters have.

>>379850441

>>379850560
I feel that, unlike fighting game,s MH is a lot about learning and understanding things. The first time you fight a new mosnter you're always cautios to not get hit and learn what it can do.
The same hunt with the same gear can take much less time later on as you know when to attack and when to avoid attacks, enforcing that feel of improvement and getting better at the game.

Newer installments have better hitboxes and most of the time if you're hit it's because something was soppussed to hit, not because clunky hitboxes that made no sense.
Showing all those areas and hitboxes, to me, kills a lot the inmersion and learning curve and makes even more clear that you're playing a game.

It would be like putting mandatory text boxes in Souls games that stop the gameplay to say "enemies can ambush you" instead of letting the player be ambushed by a weak enemy and learn from it, expecting ambushed from other enemies later on.

The less a game reminds you it's a game, the better the experience will be.

>>379848083
Character models and animations that don't look like they're from the PSP era.

But who am I kidding? The only way Capcom can keep making a profit on this series is to recycle that shit like Compile Heart does with Neptunia.

Zenith very fast pupper!

>>379851471
I mean simply finishing the game.

>>379851307
it depends on the context, is seeing the hitboxes just an option you can turn on or is it something that only appears in a separate training mode? i think the latter is acceptable

i think letting people see that the monster doesn't actually turn into a gigantic ball of death when it attacks would go a long way towards helping people understand how MH combat works

>>379850373
*tips kasa*

>>379851246
It's really easy to just hit & run the monsters or turtle with a lance, but the point is to become good with the weapons so you can be aggressive and make hunts faster. Honestly, monsters don't have much health, at best the G-rank ones but it's more about having less openings or being mroe dangerous and therefore encourages a more defensive play.

>>379850954
True but don't act as if you need to be a skill god to play MH, even 12 year old kids like it

>>379851821
What does 'finishing the game' mean for MonHun?
Because you can struggle your way to the credits, it's casual?
My sister could beat DMC on Easy

>Would you like to get the franchise on the PS4?
I'd rather have it on the 3DS so I don't have to pay to play it with friends, or the switch so I'm at least only paying $20

>>379851883
If it's a separate optional trainign mode that's not part of the mainline quests then I guess it's fine, as it could help some people to udnerstand how things work as you say.

If it's a mandatory tutorial then it's really stupid as it introduces a mechanic that unless there's a version for ALL monsters it's useless. And, even then, having a training mode for all mosnters streamlines things a bit too much. Not seeing or knowing that grey area wether an attack will connect or not it's part of the appeal and gives a lot of tension to the hunt.

>>379851750
Huh it is dead. Anyway Capcom's number doesn't account for the many re-releases the FU got that sold millions based on the chart. They only count the base FU. The "PSP The Best" releases are not technically called FU. All other MH titles get "The Best" re-releases, but FU one sold the best.

>>379851978
>Because you can struggle your way to the credits, it's casual?
Yes, if casuals can finish all the main content it's a casual friendly game. This is also true for DMC and evey other game with an easy mode.
DMC is in fact popular with the casual crowd.

>>379851962
they play it in groups
solo G rank is where the true monster hunter connoiseurs get separated from the trash

>>379852140
See >>379852192

Add another roughly 1.5 million to that number, which gives you the VGChartz figure.

>>379850441
>>379851458
Damn son, you right. Why is Capcom is releasing them on the 3DS when they could do it with the PSP?

>>379848083
No, and I'm speaking as a hueg Sonybro. No doubt they'd casualize the game if it comes out on consoles.
I mostly play jrpg games but haven't got the chance to play it on 3ds, hope they announce a new one on Switch so I could get the handheld as well.

>>379851986
God of War was never good.

>>379852941
It was a decent DMC clone. Better than the cinematic trash it'll become with the next game

>>379852517
MH is already casual, that's literally how it's described by the developers themselves.
I'm a pretty big fan of the series but people who act as if the game isn't accessible to huge casuals and doesn't have casual appeal are full of shit.

>>379853090
Every GoW is cinematic quick time event: the game.
Play the games before talking.

>>379853273
I did. Yes, they are a bit trigger-happy with the QTEs, but I still found them enjoyable. The series should have just ended for good with 3, though

I'm still confident in MH5 is PS4/Switch.

>>379852192
Not him but the only way it would sell better is if you combine both freedom 2 and unite because that site consolidates rereleases of the same game.

>>379848083
Monster Hunter wouldn't appeal to Sony's casual dudebro market, so I imagine it would fail then just end up back on Nintendo's side where it was successful in the west

If it were to ever swap back to Sony
How do people keep thinking MH on Sony is ever gonna happen again? Capcom's not gonna put that much effort into it.
Reason why they keep it on Nintendo is because they don't have to prioritize graphics because, surprise, graphics aren't important.

>>379853454
No it's not the same game. You see this chart >>379851458, those are arranged in the same game order, counting HD releases.

>>379848083
It won't be exclusive to the PS4 anyway. Hoping more on a PC release if anything.

>>379853550
>Monster Hunter wouldn't appeal to Sony's casual dudebro market
How did Persona 5 and Nier Automata become so popular on PS4?

>>379853550
Why is MHXX on Switch if graphics is not important?

>>379852182
i think there are some elements to monster hunter that absolutely should be made crystal clear to new players like how sharpness works and how monster hitzones work

>>379853589
The the game didn't sell as much as as you think it did because it doesn't make a second appearance on the list of million+ sellers. Or that it consolidates every release.
In any case they have to make a record of this for legal reasons and if it isn't there then it didn't happen. Simple as that.

>>379853809
Because resolution

>>379853943
But it happened and people already tracked those sales.

>>379853904
the thing about MH is that it's a long running franchise that has retained the same core gameplay through all the games, so a lot of things are handled in a way that if you're a veteran player it doesn't get too much in your way.

but that also means that new players can get confused as the game throws a lot of things on you right at the start. happened to me back in Tri and I know several people who dropped the game because of it.

I'm sure there's a way to please both sides but it's hard to find.

>>379854060
Isn't that graphics? Doesn't the PS4 have like 4k resolution if that is so important?

>>379854070
Then where are the records of these sales? Like I said FU doesn't make another appearance.

>>379854242
Here >>379851458. I believe these are Famitsu numbers, not Mediacreate.

>>379854358
The only source for those numbers is the chart and it doesn't match with the real numbers.

>>379848694

>I'm sure there's a way to please both sides but it's hard to find.
capcom's current approach is not working

having a dozen missions to teach the player that they can gather and craft items while leaving key gameplay elements unexplained just ends up wasting everyone's time whether they're novices or series veterans

I'd really want Capcom to take the time to make a console based MH rather than ports so yes.

Just move away from the 3DS. Switch or PS4.

>>379854642
And where did this one come from now?

>>379855741
If it makes you feel better XX is most likely testing the waters like 3U did.

>>379855273
>My friends couldn't clear the the mission in Gen to make it to high rank
I don't care about them. Not my fault if you only hang out with people from your special ed class.
>only half the people the bought Bloodborne finished it
This is true for every game, not only on PSN.
The fact that each ending in Bloodborne has at least 15% obtainment rate makes Bloodborne accessible for casuals, and Monster Hunter numbers wouldn't be that different.
It's also pretty funny that you mentioned a game that was a hit on PS4 and surclassed the original expectations in terms of sales.
97% of the players couldn't beat La-Mulana on Steam, that's my definition of game that's not accessible for casuals.

>>379855445
I'd love if they put all those exercises int he same mission.
Like a timeless mission where you go around all the areas in a map and each one has a different focus
ie: Kill some small mosnters in area 1, gather some things in 2, craft/cook in area 3, etc.

this way with only 1 mission you do everything. It would be a bit long, yeah, but at least you'd avoid having to leave and start a new mission every time, with all the loading times it takes.

And you do know that the PSP is dead, right? Japan isn't interested in home console monhan, and the Vita is kill. The 3DS inherited the largest share of the PSP's userbase, and sales have been quite impressive, even if nothing reached the record high set by Freedom Unite.

>>379856448
>and sales have been quite impressive
It really is. They've all been selling a consistent 4 mil without rereleases and on a system with about 2mil less players.

>>379855969
I think you're giving casuals too much credit though. I know people that are autistically good and people that play a lot of games but suck. Monster hunter is more effort to beat than a souls game and souls games terrify casuals

>>379848083

You're talking about the anonymous /.v/ post that predicted MH5 for PS4 and Monster Hunter Portable on Switch, right?
You'd do well to recall it in greater detail, since it actually completely failed to predict MHXX, and dated the Monster Hunter Portable game for 2017. Nothing from the "leak" has come true. You got duped.

Well, let's hope they listen to them for MH5 whenever it comes.
I like how Capcom tries to keep the core gameplay the same through all games but that shouldn't stop them from trying to improve the game in every way possible.

I just want a MH on xbox.

I'm personally sick of always fighting in a static arena the size of a hockey rink.

What are the arguments against open world?

>>379858395
Well, I just said that. Putting all or the main mechanics of the game in a single but long quest that gives each mechanic it's time and makes you practise it a bit teaches new players the fundamentals of the game, in a single mission, avoiding starting several missions and by making it optional also lets veterans to skip it and go straigh for the game.

>>379858395
Convenience and cutting out fluff is an improvement

>>379850036
No it is not.

>>379848083
Any console MH is fine, as long as it has stable online. Hunting monsters with friends is the best.

>>379858943
I just did, psp felt somewhat natural. With the 3ds you can't even describe to someone how your suppose to hold it, it's so bad.

>>379859265
>If there's one series that can benefit from open world mechanics, it's MH.
Not everything works in an open world environment anon. MH is a prime example of that seeing as they would have to change how monsters act completely especially when it comes to flying monsters.
They would either have to remove the stamina bar too or give you a vehicle of some kind to traverse the world which would quickly get tedious.

>>379853142
Just how casual is MH?
Is it basically just hunt monsters, grind for stuff, repeat?
Haven't played any but just don't want the possibility of them adding qte's, less optional side quests, items etc. stuff like that for the sake of introducing it to new players.
If they could keep all the stuff from a normal MH game intact to consoles I'd buy it sure.

>>379859265
Having a stable controlled space let's devolopers tweak and fix problems that could happen during the fight, as it always stays the same.

That's why Open world games tend to have so many bugs and problems, because as anything can happen anywhere, the amount of situations is enormous and problems emerge all over the time.

>>379859964
Bugs happen in a physics based game. MH don't rely on physics, it's animation based.

>psp felt somewhat natural.
It and it's younger brother weren't exactly designed with ergonomics in mind. Not to mention the glossy finish that was on every model of the PSP.
Then we come to the problem of holding the thing. Cradling it in your palms doesn't all for adequate use of the shoulder buttons or grip for that matter because of the curved design of the system.
If you were to cradle it in the fingers then you're reducing both overall comfortability and it looks fairly strange to boot.

I find it strange that people can play it without cramping up within 30 minutes.

I don't think you read this properly anon.

>>379860810
Did you? Explain to me

>>379859265
You would have to rework the entire MH game. With the way it works now, the map could be BOTW size and it probably still wouldn't work unless you vastly decreased the monsters in size or significantly decreased the amount of monsters. Doing the latter would kill MH's enjoyment completely because the game would probably stop being equipment based. It would likely have a small amount of armor and weapons and use levels to make up the difference, turning it into another boring RPG. Doing the former means it'll become like XCX where the map is riddled with shit except it won't work as well because XCX's genre allowed a lot of monsters to be non-hostile, it won't work that way in MH. You'd also have to completely rework the stamina system or movement. If characters ran at the speed they do now, it would take years to cross a single area. If they ran faster though, monsters would have to be faster and then MH would become less about positioning and learning monster patterns and turn into fucking God Eater.

There's no need to change MH when the genre it's in now is completely fine. There's also no need to have another open world game in an already saturated genre.

>Would you like to get the franchise on the PS4?

No shit. People have been begging for this since PS3. But PS4 is now the flagship console to graphically behold, so there should be no excuse now. Plus the popularity is through the roof.

Putting a Monster Hunter game on it will be easy. Getting people to buy that Monster Hunter game will be the challenge. Alot of potential buyers of the game have been turned away from the franchise due to the god damn claustrophobic controls. Nothing is streamlined. Everything has an unnecessary-as-balls delay animation. Even Dark Souls 3 has a more forgiving control scheme and item consumption animation (slightly).

Multiplayer should be no problem as well. Especially compared to Nintendo's dated-as-fuck online capabilities.

Also, did Sony finally buy the rights back for this game?

>>379863174
It's not that I'm trying to convince anyone it's just that the two systems are really, really poorly designed.

>>379863451
>Multiplayer should be no problem as well.

The older MH audience goes where MH is.

>Also there's simply no audience for monhun on consoles anymore.

Because the damn game has been getting released on Nintendo handhelds since forever. Can't expect people to maintain interest when it's not on console, or on the console brand that they own.

>>379848083
Sure but I feel like they would feel the need to casualize it for the normies if it did come to PS4 and that doesn't exactly sound appealing to me. Not that it isn't already pretty casualized but still they would need to make big changes for it to succeed as a console only MH game.

>>379863354
3DS already has that title especially since its so popular here home of manchildren.

Prove me wrong.

>>379863787
>psn rarely works
Huh?

There's definitely an audience and normies would flock to it considering it's similar to dark souls but more or less casual on a surface level.

>item consumption animation
Goddamn I will never understand this fucking argument. The item animations are like that so you use your brain and use an opening that should have been used to attack to heal. It's a way to punish you for getting hit and in case of other items the animations are there so they hold a risk before you can get the benefits.

The people who complain about this shit wouldn't know good game design even if they got hit by it. You're making me remember that day I ended up reading a god eater thread with people complaining about the same shit nonstop because everything wasn't instantaneous like in that game.

>>379864564
Only decent souls clone I thought was pretty good was Soul Sacrifice and it's not really that similar. Others I played were barely passable at best.

>>379848083

As long as the game has fluid combat like Dragon's Dogma, with the same enemy climbing capabilities, and extensively thoughtout classes and and movesets, then I am all game. The MH on the Wii U was the only one I played. And I gotta say, having the same 2 movesets per weapon made combat seem lethargic as shit. You are just sitting there spamming the same one or two moves. After 5 or 6 hours of the game, you really wish you could do more with the switch axe. Or much more with the dual blades besides slash slash slash..... slash slash slash..... slash slash R-button slashslashslash..... slashslashslash......slashslashslash....... slash slash slash...... slash slash slash..... etc.

EXPANSIVE movesets
Well thoughtout classes
FLUID combat system
PRETTY graphics

That is all you need to win over a good 45% of PS4 owners who have never touched this franchise.

>>379848083
No. Monhun Team hasn't exactly had a great relationship with Sony in the past, and they and capcom are penny pinchers. Every yen they save from spending on trying to figure out how the fuck to port to entirely different systems with different OS and structures is a yen that goes into making the games they do make better.

You and your ilk are under the delusion that Monster Hunter will suddenly become this magical high-def ultrarealistic megabeautiful beast if it's made on PS4. It won't. It'll still look like it did back on the Wii, just with higher resolution textures and smaller UI elements. This is because Monster Hunter has never, ever, EVER been about graphics unless it was some b-team of some other company making an MMO entry, which most actual fans typically see as the dog shit it is.

I'll follow Monster Hunter wherever it goes. No matter how shitty it looks. That is what makes me a true fan of it. Even if it went on PS4 or Xbox (which is incredibly unlikely) and they stopped developing for Nintendo systems, I'd still follow it. Your constant begging and hoping and rumour mongering and misinformation is tiring and pathetic. Fuck off and stop hoping that an actual monster hunter game will ever come back to Sony systems. Even if this Monster Hunter: World absurd rumour is true, which I highly doubt, all rumours point to it being some half-assed open-world shit, which is absolutely the route that Monster Hunter should never go.

>>379848325

Not in the west, though. And they'd likely market an MMO with World in its title.

Do you get up after eating a McDonald's burger to flex your muscles or pat your stomach for 8 to 9 seconds? Do you do a little dance after every sip of soda that you take?

Your character is in an environment where a dinosaur can pop out at any given moment, i.e., you are in a literal DANGER ZONE at all times. So while take the time out to do a stupid little dance after consuming something when you should be on guard and twitchy at all times? The animations are unnecessary. They should be taken out.

MH4U has had the most content the series has ever had and it was on a portable. "more powerful hardware" doesn't mean "more content" in any world since it's all about the medium it's stored on.

I'd buy a MH game on the PS4, but, I don't believe it's the best platform for it.

>>379865757
It doesn't have to be MHO tier graphics. Just playing on a big screen with a proper controller in hands is all the game's missing to capture some new players. I know a few who really want to get into the game, but they outright refuse to play on a handheld.
I know Japs love their portables, but the westerners - not as much. But Capcom did say they want to expand MH in the west, and specifically the home console market. We'll see.

Either way, I don't mind playing on a handheld that much. But when it comes to consoles PS4 is a far better option than the other two.

You make it seem like the combat on any other game is any more complicated than that.

Let me tell you something. Radical combos with flips and twirls are boring as fuck because all that sort of combat ever boils down to is button spam and a whole lot of empty flash. This is why Monster Hunter combat is GOOD - with a limited moveset, every move matters, every move has its niche, and learning to use them all in the right place, at the right time, is part of what makes it engaging.

>EXPANSIVE movesets
Empty and hollow movesets.

>Well thoughtout classes
Every weapon is different.

>FLUID combat system
Fuck off. Fluid is such a bullshit term nowadays. To developers, that ends up meaning "no-thought, the game practically plays itself". Worse yet is when, to a lot of players, that means being able to dodge whenever they like no matter what, which takes a lot of the challenge out of any sort of combat system

>PRETTY graphics
Fuck off. Monster Hunter doesn't need to be pretty to be good. That's vapid and shallow.

Instead of turning the game into literally everything it is not, why not just find different games that fit those criteria instead of complaining that Monster Hunter would be better if it mimicked those games? Why are you trying to fuck over the people who are satisfied with what it offers?

>>379866313

Come the fuck on. Move properties don't have much to do with animation. Also look at GS and say it again that every move matters. At most you get those use it 3% of the time niches for shit like horizontal slash and 90% of your brainpower is concentrated on landing that charge or unsheathe. I have seen games with bigger moveset and better niches for every move than MH.

Muh realism. Yeah. You're fighting dinosaurs. We've already left the realm of realism. Monster Hunter is a goofy game. If you don't like it, stop playing it and stop bitching about it.

The alternative here is to have a really, really fucking long chugging animation, which is boring as fuck for achieving the same thing. The flex gives the game character, even if it is goofy character.

Except that's true just not for the reasons you expect.
They've sold more on Nintendo consoles solely because of there's been more games on handhelds for the audience to buy there was also a consistency with sales as every release from 4 onwards has sold a solid 4 mil.
With that said there were also no rereleases on the 3DS like there was for the PSP.
At the same time the home console games sold better on Nintendo systems compared to Sony home consoles.

>>379866634

Then they would have moved to the Wii U and we would have seen a shift and subsequent games would have been on that or the PS4 if they sorted out relations with Sony (hah).

The MH fanbase doesn't want a console game anon. That's a simple fact that you need to come to terms with.

I've been playing GE with my friends these days and while it's mindless fun it's way too easy and forgiving. The funny thing is that from my friends the one who has played all the GE games keeps dying every single minute while the ones who played MH die rarely because they know how to approach monster games and aren't mashing the buttons like crazy.

After that Nintendo just went,

Literally none of Nintendo's platforms that Monster Hunter has been on has been weaker than the PSP, to which Monster Hunter was trapped for aeons. Hell, the N3DS is roughly as powerful as the PS2 as evidenced by its Snake eater Port, just lacking in the resolution department.

True, I am playing the game on 3DS because that's where monster hunter is. My only want in this regard is to play Monster Hunter. Wanting to play it on a specific system is fucking cancer. Just play the fucking game you fucking mongoloid.

>the fact is MH was better on Sony platforms
PS3 P3rd did not look any better than P3rd. P3rd looked considerably worse than 3U, 4U, and Gen because of its somehow even shittier resolution.

The fact is that P3rd got fucked over by Sony, bad. It is on record that the Monster Hunter team WANTED to localize it, but they couldn't because of Sony's absurd regulations and unwillingness to apply a patch to their ad hoc online system. Nintendo has had no such problems with Monster Hunter, with Ryozo actually saying that he liked what Nintendo offers - as much can be seen in how well they've utilized the second screen.

If you are actually a fan of Monster Hunter, you'll accept these facts and move on with your life.

Capcom doesn't want to invest AAA game dev resources into Monster Hunter. They also probably don't want to be responsible for the worst looking game in the PS4 library should they keep the budget similar to the 3DS'. Monster Hunter is going to stay on handheld platforms so fucking deal with it.

Mix Gore is for S+1, right? Just check the damage multiplier on sharpness levels for your weapon and compare it with AuL or w/e Velociprey gives. And remember than AuL only adds raw damage, unlike sharpness modifiers, in case you're using an elemental weapon.

>>FLUID combat system
>Fuck off. Fluid is such a bullshit term nowadays.

Dark Arisen pretty much set the standard for what all open world Capcom hack n slash games should be like now. Fluid, in terms of games like that one. Not retard tier Skyrim fluidity where you're just running around flailing your sword at enemies.

Did you have half the brain to use your JP account and download AHP like you would to play MHP3 online?

>>379867157
It did, at least. Prior to 4U, it was the only move that the Lance had that had super armour, and extended super armour at that, enough to land the third poke safely. Even now that the third poke has super armour, it still provides a little bit more for when working with teammates such as those that have longswords, and it's still great for dealing with harassing mooks.

>>379867320
>combos mean everything
They mean nothing if they're piss easy to pull off, or are just a matter of memorization rather than actual skill. In Monster Hunter, a combo is when you flinch the monster multiple times into a trip, and that is satisfying as fuck to pull off. And even then, there is absolutely nothing about combos that is more satisfying to pull of than a last second counter.

Just having a true open world (NOT necessarily sandbox) monster hunter would be a god send. These games were literally built to eventually evolve into that. I'm going to be disappointed but I can wish. Just tired of the same fucking formula of
>pick quest
>fight in predetermined arena
>get parts
>rinse repeat
Just evolve monster hunter/Capcom

>>379869214

An untapped audience of about 10k people world wide. In other words none worth the time and effort.

>>379868532
What I don't understand about people who want combos is that in G or even High Rank, having a big drawn out combo will get you killed very easily, especially for the much more flighty and aggressive monsters like Zinogre or Rajang. Pretty much the only time you would see it in action anyways is when the monsters tripped, which doesn't really change anything.

>>379869365

>These games were literally built to eventually evolve into that.

Capcom doesn't want to improve monster hunter. Honestly I would rather them evolve the world design and gameplay but all they've done the past few games is rehash old monsters that nobody cares about.

Monster Hunter IS evolving. Just because it's not evolving in the way you like (which, to say, devolving to anyone who recognizes the necessity of zones) doesn't mean it's not.

Not to mention the main monhun audience that only play on handhelds especially in Japan where it's an extremely popular portable game.

Deny it all you want but there's no reason why they should alienate the majority of the fanbase for more work and smaller gain.

He's right. MH4U was basically the best game since MHFU. But even then, you only get real difficulty at mid-G Rank and up if you don't use Insect Glaive. And MHGen... omg have you seen that game? It's a fucking joke in comparison. They literally went full Devil May Cry/Ninja Gaiden but without any of the difficulty. Spins to wins, jump/mount spamming. It's piss easy.

To be fair, hyper Silverlos/Goldian, Jho and Rajang can still one shot you just as well as apex monster could in 4U. Adept just makes the game easy mode, but if you don't use it, the difficulty is about the same. But you don't get as many armor skills as you would in a G-rank game.

>>379869541

It will punish the spammers who spam them on higher ranked monsters, obviously. Combos will be good to add variety to the combat.

I think a grappling hook weapon would be a cool alternative to the wepons. I'm not sure what it could be used for. Perhaps there could be a bomber class. The bomber would have a variety of bombs he/she could use as their main weapon. They can grapple themselves to the enemies Batman style and attach a bomb(s) to the monster for good damage. How Capcom will Balance this class out would be up to them.

>>379869992
>Spins to wins, jump/mount spamming. It's piss easy.
Good job admitting that you have no fucking idea what you're talking about.

Mount spamming is worse than 4U even with aerial styles because they've increased the mount threshold, and almost all aerial weapons are shit.

>>379870236
>20 bucks

>>379859964
There are literally bugs/broken hitboxes still permeating monster hunter. And that has NOTHING to do with the space. In fact, giving players more space to take advantage of would solve a lot of the problems people have with several monsters.

Like Nibelsnarf in the remake of Dunes in MH1. It's the worst designed map for his moveset. Also, the multitude of random bumps they put which break the flow of combat and fuck up basic dodge rolling. And that's in a closed map.

No open worlds don't hurt the potential design if you're not retarded about how you design it.

And no, developers that put forth effort and actually care enough don't have insane bugs all over the open world. Dragon's Dogma has almost no bugs that I've ever witnessed. Zelda BOTW, same. If you're siting Bethesda, well that's a company problem. They are always shit at making open world games.

Pretty good way to kill the game sales since people will assume its a new game and not a shoddy G-Rank patch of Gen.

>>379867368
There is no reason they couldn't remove those silly animations. Balance my ass. It makes it almost impossible in higher ranks to actually use anything unless you wait for "that one move" or just leave the fucking zone. The fact that they put armor skills to "solve" the problem shows that it literally doesn't fucking matter whether it's there or not. Hell they got rid of high speed gather in MHGen and just made that the default gather if you gather/carve more than once. Just do that with every one of those animations. Dark Souls made WAY more fucking sense and it still punishes the player for using items at inappropriate times. There is no excuse, you faggots will literally defend anything just to keep your precious memories.

I highly doubt that. If they re-branded Generations in the west just to sell it as a "new" game when its just Generations again it would be the dumbest fucking thing they've ever done with Monster Hunter, and probably just result in less sales.

What if, now hear me out, Capcom decides to announce a new MH game in the West first? I mean, Capcom has said in the past they knew that Handheld MH wasn't enough to make the series grow in the west, so what if this is their attempt to get MH more popular there? What better place to attract western gamers attention then E3?

>>379851307
Well, I can understand you, as that's what I enjoy about the game. The problem is that most of the core audience, just doesn't think this way about these games. They need things like this. The benefit of this mode is that they can use it if they need it. And then players like us can just avoid it. It doesn't matter as far as I'm concerned. If anything it tells me there are actually taking the time to design their monsters and that's a good thing too.
