Yeah, some of the MH elite are snobs. You'll encounter people saying that the city is "theirs" and that they won't let you go on a quest unless you have/do this or that. But then again, all games will have these bitches.
MEEEEEEEEE! lol

*using bowgun* "why are you not cutting the tail, do I have to do everything?", "don't heal next to me, do you want me to die?", "if you don't have Scatterfish GTFO", "WHERES THE SLP FISH!" and so on.

I need bow tips. Melee weapons seem so much easier. ;_;
Apply coating with X+A, aim for the head and always charge your shots. Don't forget to read the digital manual!

There shouldn't be any difference in load times between cart and eShop download, correct?
Faster loading if you go digital, disc is also pretty fast though, it's like 2 to 1 second.

There's a comparison video out there.
 
While we are at tech-aspects, turning the 3D off in the mainmenu of the 3DS-version increases the framerate quite a bit. Note: Turning off through the switch on the side doesn't do this!

This is exactly how it was for Super Street Fighter IV.

Lol, I can be like that, too, especially when I'm grinding for something. If I'm going for some Alatreon Webbing, the last thing I need to deal with is someone named "slayer" (lowercase "s") with his Rathian armor and Guan Dao.

In other news, I think my main weapons will be Swax, GL, Bow (online only), Hammer (because breaking faces is always good), and SnS (since it was my bread and butter in Tri). My Switch Axe is just too fun to give up, and the Gunlance seems interesting, although I still kinda suck at it.

Oh you're that guy? 8O

But so anyways, WHERE'S THE OT ALREADY DAMMIT?!!?!11!
 
I didn't actually know Americans get it three days earlier than Europeans. Those days will be tough. And I know I'll be stuck with a slow wi-fi and will actually spend the first day it's released downloading it.
 
Oh hey, they have tv ads for this in France, game is still more than a week away. Also discovered Monster Hunter in French is actually Munster Unter!! O_o
 
I really hope Amazon.fr won't screw around... The delivery is supposed to be done the 25th, but I have (false) hopes that it will arrive sooner, ie Friday :( Well, I can still change my order to ensure that I will get it Friday... Naw, I can wait.

All my french coworkers pronounce (or in this case, not) the "H" when talking English exactly like that, isn't it the case for everyone?
 
Ell yea, we tend to skip the "H" more often ten not.


Well that's how they pronouce it in the commercial. *shrug*

Edit: sorry, it's ow zey pronounce it. *srug*

Oh. Nevermind then. True enough, the french prononciation of english words isn't really spot on most of the time.
 
Is there only like 2 levels of charge? What does it mean when the line goes from yellow to red?

I'm not 100%, because the demo is my first time with it, but if you see the line, it's because you're holding R, and obviously you're also holding X because you charged the draw. I think when the line turns red, its indicating that you can do the arrow hail attack (not what its called officially). So you're sitting there with R + X held in, you can either release X to fire normally, or press A to shoot up into the air at a high arc, which rains down many shots in the circle of effect that is shown on the ground. The latter is really cool looking, and also does exhaust/KO damage. In other words, do it as much as possible. Although, I know nothing about how that affects team mates.
 
I wonder how much of a mess the Monster Hunter Miiverse is going to become when the game finally launches. I'm expecting a good deal of post from frustrated players about the lack of lock on and no monster health bars. Telling people to have patience, go slow, and actually learn the game might become the norm for a while.

I'm glad that Capcom seemingly is pushing the game. Even if it's just online. They have a serious chance here of making this work. They really should have though made more of an effort to put out detail tutorial videos on their youtube channel. I'm glad they were doing the streams but in the end I found them to be horrible and not informative. Not how a purposeful tutorial video with just one person talking and explaining their actions. Not simply showing off a boss fight.
 
Just tried the gunlance for the first time...
I love it!

So badass, to wail on Lagombi and then burst fire into him, and that Wyvern Fire is awesome too. Plus you have a shield? Only thing that messed with me at first was no rolling, but man, such a badass weapon.
 
Which youtube's channels is there to follow regular players of MH?The only ones I know are Social Dissonnance and MonsterHunterSketch,I find them great with the live comments!

PS:sorry for my weak english.

Its great isn't it. I wish wyvern fire on bowguns worked the same way. The only problem I have is when I'm standing there, weapon drawn, and I see a long range unblockable attack coming my way. My gut instinct is to mash the stick to a side and hit B, which most of the time makes me hop right back into the line of fire. Gotta work on that I guess.
