Does anyone have a breakdown of what each table has what? What table is the bad table?

Ugh! I started on 3DS & planned on playing online tonight. I wish either Nintendo or Capcom would say when the transfer app will be on eShop!
No health bars for bosses, but you'll know when they're tired, angry, near death, etc.
The easy mode takes forever since you haven't figured the game out yet. Just like any game w/ a learning curve, at one point you'll start figuring things out and everything starts to click. Took me the full timer to kill the thing when I played the JP demo last year, this time around I dismantled the guy w/ a GS a little over 5 mins and got through Plesioth in the first try also. The demo does a bad job of showing this, but it does take a good hour or so at least to get to this point.

Thanks very much everyone, really appreciate the detailed feedback and advice. I should of said I was totally new to the game, you probably thought I was being a troll.
I might pick up a guide with the game, sounds like it might be really handy

Maybe you should copy the FAQs from the demo topic to the OP, or at least link that topic or something.

Moreso than having a guide, your own experience and having a good community (like...say, GAF!) at your disposal will prove to be way more helpful in the long run. Monster Hunter really is a "learn by doing" sort of game.Thanks very much everyone, really appreciate the detailed feedback and advice.

The reason you were questioned is because a lot of your genuine questions wound up reading like a laundry list of really common questions/complaints especially put forth by newcomers and reviewers (the slow weaponry, lock-on, monster health-bars, length of battles). I suppose the stereotype has roots in the truth!
I keep saying it, but you'll be fine as long as you have some patience and a genuine willingness to learn some of the game's quirkier facets. If you give it the time, you will be rewarded, fear not.
Same thing happened to me. I thought setting it onto download like that was supposed to disable the auto power-off functionality? My download's almost done, but now I'll have to make dinner anyway, so the wait continues.
I'm new with streaming and capture things,but here it is : http://www.twitch.tv/mh3uplayeredayan I'll play until I feel too sleepy
.I've got the game yesterday and am going to hunt a Lagiacrus in the village and kill some Gigginox for the lagiacrus gunlance,then I'll try to reach the high level quests of Moga.

When I think of FAQs and Monster Hunter, I think:
The "gun racks" scene from the Matrix. Except it's:
"FAQs. Lots of FAQs."
And infinite bookshelves full of strategy guides slide into view.

Awesome, glad I don't have to wait til Thursday.
It better be up by the time I get home.
Why isn't this built into the game ffs.
Because the 3DS version was released in Japan before the Wii U version was planned, so it's built into the Wii U version but rather than patching the 3DS version or using Download Play for it they just made an extra app.

I had to call my friend so he could check the download and press the install button. LMAO
He also downloaded the patch.
IM GONNA START PLAYING NOW

that's what i was thinking too. when i first got my wii u, it had to do the update and the auto-power down was disabled for it automatically (i remember it even saying as much). i assumed it would be the same for games too...
i just turned my auto power-off... off to keep that from happening again

Well that's good news at least.
Now if I could just get that charm chart site to load. Is everyone else still having a problem accessing it?
I've finally gotten an estimate and it's about 4 and a half hours. My internet speed isn't the problem here, though.
[edit]Also, don't even think about multitasking. Jumping into miiverse for a moment and then going back to the download management gave me a new, even more wonderful estimate of 14+ hours.
Micromania in Toulouse received the Wii U bundle today. That's how I managed to get it ^^
(Oh God the stereotypes xD ).

What's the character limit for your hunter's name?
Seems sensible. I'd at least like to craft myself an armor set before I really hop on and try to keep up with the folks in multiplayer. If nothing else I'll get far enough to double-check my charm table...as much as I hate admitting that.
Lv 1 quests don't even have any big monsters.
3DS version has 3. I imagine it is the same for the Wii U version.

Aw yeah!
Thank you very much.
Are you hard wired? The lack of an ethernet port is mind boggling. I'm pretty sure I download slow as shit on this console because of damn WiFi. I'm not even halfway done
Also got the last one from another Cincy store.

Getting tutorial stuff out of the way. I'm enjoying the game even though they decided to replace the "I"s in the game with "]". CPP is so great under water. Imy only regret is how digital the camera positions are. Also I was surprised that the game takes my system offline and goes local. So much for seeing if other people are hunting while I do.

So is this looking like the biggest MG release yet? Seems a lot of people are jumping on board.

So are you 3DS owners happy with it? I'm at Target deciding between Wii U and XL still. They have both games, but my buy in is about half for the XL and games. Bah this is tough....I want online, but I'm still sketchy on the Wii U library as a whole. :/ But I'm also hearing mega complaints about visuals on the XL? How bad?

Sorry for more newb question, but it looks like the online and offline missions are separate from each other, even though they mostly end up being the same thing. Is this a case where I should do the offline missions first and then jump online, or can I move back and forth at my leisure?
This is a huge problem. From the distance I sit, I have to squint to read the text. They have a ton of space they could be using, but aren't.

The visuals are great. It's just the fonts that are odd, like they were on Tri (and actually on WiiU ver. as well). For some reason this is a series tradition.
Quick question on the when to start the stop watch part. When you are in the system settings and you click the confirm button there are then 2 more prompts saying something something "are you sure", something something "changing your time could effect things".
So do you start the stop watch after you OK those extra prompts or do you still do it when you click the first confirm?

First time hunter here, got the last Wii U copy in the 6 stores I visited... hard to find!
Feeling a little overwhelmed but just going to play around and hope things will come naturally... my first problem is I have somehow zoomed in the map and can't see where to go... I've tried every button combo and looked in the manual... anyone help me get it back to normal?
