Fuck he can callDeviljho. No offense deviljho.
You rang?
Haha, you're right. I loved the regular Qurupeco armor set in Tri, but the Crimson set looks stupid now that I've seen it. The Switch Axe looks nice, though.

I know that's the attempted look, head dress and such, but overall it looks more like a cowboy mixed with a mexican wrestler than anything like that.

Seems it has only one new attack, which produces a flash bomb like attack. Crimson Qurupeco's element is changed to Thunder.
*throws dung bomb* Hahaha.
*runs away*
Yeah, for some reason I thought CrimPeco would have same looking armour as the regular one. I leapt before I looked.

....So did I, so we're still on the same page :lol
I'll give the new stuff a look later. I really disliked the lime and purple chaps and feathered attire how it was.

Like the demo a lot, although I gotta say, it's not newbie friendly at all.
Glad to see you're sticking with it! Lots of people give up too easily.

Is there a better tutorial in the full game? I've never played Monster Hunter before and I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. I can't even practice to see if I'm capable of getting the hang of it because demo limits :/
Yes, the real game's tutorial is extensive. They explain the basics of gathering and combining materials, how hunts work, pretty much everything. This demo works well for veterans, but it's pretty daunting if you've never touched the series before.
Yes, there is a very slow and deliberate walk through in the single player of the main game. It goes through things like items, how to attack, how to gather and mine. Some of the deeper mechanics must be taught through battle, but it's certainly better than this demo.
In the mean time, if you want a 'tutorial', you can check out Youtube for Tri tutorials on certain weapons. You'll at least get an idea about what you're doing then.
If you use the longsword, use this combo: X, X, A, X, R, X. It makes things a bit easier
Yeah but it may be easier to check out youtube vids in the meantime, "let's plays" or weapon tutorials.
Okay so I've pretty much given up on the switch axe for trying to kill Plesioth and am now practicing with the hammer on Lagombi.
The hammer has very visibly devastating attacks, but it's hard having to relearn a new weapon after I've spent so much time getting to know the switch axe. Still, I'm determined to kill Plesioth, so I gotta do what I gotta do. I'm not ready to give up.

Don't let having trouble with certain weapon types dissuade you in picking them up for retail. It's best to understand that using a weapon element that's the same as the monster you're fighting isn't going to work out so well.
That being said, Switch Axe being water element in this demo makes me sad.

Always make sure you trap him and bomb him in the head. No matter what weapon you use.
If I remember correctly, switchaxe was one of the easiest weapons to kill Plesioth with. . Whenever he stands still or uses the beam, I switched to sword mode and used the burst. There might be a better way to do damage, but I'm not very familiar with the switchaxe.
Hunting horn also makes things pretty easy. Just practice the attack strings and focus on dodging.
X -> Y -> X+Y -> R -> R (Infinite stamina)
X -> X+Y -> X+Y -> R -> R (Defense up)
X -> X -> R -> R (Movement speed up)
X -> Y -> X -> R -> R (Tiny healing)

this is so frustrating
im never going to beat this fish thing
edit: oh my fucking god i was so close and then he just went full retard and i couldnt touch him at all and he killed me three times
i think im going to cry
Don't feel too bad. I'm a series fan from two previous games and it still took me like 5 or 6 tries to kill him. The 20 minute time limit really makes it a bit of a DPS race and not as strategic as hunts tend to be in the full games.

I know this game looks great on the 3DS, similar to the PSP games. Is the contrast between the Wii U version huge? Is the HD graphics really that much better?
You only turn it on on the screen, the camera turns to the monster with the L button.
as a vet this is what i'm dreading for the first 4 hours....errrghhhh...but yeah fear not noobs you are covered
Oh wow...I feel slow now.
OT but I never finished MH Tri yet on the Wii, is there any point to finishing the single player portion since Ultimate is supposed to be Tri 2.0?

Crank that up to 1080p and see for yourself. Personally I think the game is just gorgeous at 1080p and far less cramped, plus I find the 3D is sometimes annoying (and I usually leave 3D on in all games) especially when a monster, or part of them, gets between you and the screen. I'm still picking up both versions for transfarring though.

Not really, since a lot of the monsters a lot of the monsters aren't in Tri, which will show up in MH3U. If you just want to play more than the demo, I guess you can play its single-player.
It's also piss easy with the Switch Axe. Get between his body and his right wing, switch to sword mode and swing away, discharge the moment either his wing or his fin breaks. He'll flinch, giving you enough time to reload the axe for a second discharge, breaking what's left, causing him to flinch again. At that point, he's already pretty much finished.

The plesioth fight is definitely a little more challenging under the time restraints, but I get the feeling that I'll breeze through a lot of the monsters in the game this time.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate |OT| 37 New Monsters, 4 New Weapon Types, and U.
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate |OT| Now with targeting.
I'd like a title that draws people in who might skip over the thread otherwise.

It's still all about the Wii Pro Controller for me. I tried the Gamepad, and it wasn't doing anything for me.
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate |OT| The Ultimate Triumph
(maybe for the WW HD, it should be The Ultimate Triumph Forks)
I lol'd, but now that there is cross-region multiplayer, there is no chance this is going to be uncensored. It is a German swear word apparently.

Yeah, I just find it amusing and slightly frustrating given the low character count you were allowed to type in the chat box. It wont be as much of an issue anymore though, because voice chat integration.

From Capcom:
Wii U = 6.07GB
3DS = 1.74GB
And people using the 3DS might want to buy a fast SD Card.
