[Anura]

Didn't notice a friend code section; guess I'll PM mine later.

I'll be heading to sleep now though, and it should be around midnight in Japan by the time I wake up, so with any luck there'll be some more info/line pics (there'll be midnight launches right?) to pass the few hours before the game goes up on the eShop.

I'm in Japan. I keep forgetting to grab my FC. It's been a few months since I last used my 3DS, so it's kinda been off to the side.

Great, I look forward to playing with you guys and the rest of MH 4 gaf!

 

[Garou]

10.5 hours until total eShop-pandemonium.

I wonder if every region has its own servers or if MH4 will take all shops worldwide with it.

 

[eighty(one)]

All of this content...and not even MH4G yet...holy shit.

Excuse my coarse language in my last few posts. Megatons do this to me.

I agree!

Can't wait to hear whether this hits the US.

MH3U has made me a fan 300+ hours split between 3DS/WiiU

 

[Mr. Fix]

Seriously, Brute Wyverns are the best. Where they at? I feel awful for wanting both Jho and Brachydios. I need leaks asap.

...

Twitter confirms the return of another monster:

! So much hype!!

I.. I can't.. Christ, consecutive posts too..

MonHun of the forever, but mostly because I expect cuts to this awesome roster for 4G. God dammit Capcom, send this over here!

Accidentally bumped the other thread, but I figured it's warranted for this delicious piece of new info.

So subspecies really are a thing.

Earlier rumor posted from GF, not sure of the source though.

11 subspecies + Akamtolm/Akantor + Dala Amadula (the huge snake)

I wonder if those will include Azures/Pinks.

*Dammit, Tenbatsu!

Man, if this is what's available in the core version, just how much can they throw in a G version?

Oh god please tell me they're back and its not just the armor!

Edit: OH my god I just remembered Tigrex has a sub! I hope that comes back!

 

[Lord Ghirahim]

I'm new to MonHun, and I'm downloading MH4 tomorrow. Is there anything I could read so I won't be completely clueless? ;//

 

[vareon]

How would we get the armor if the monster is not returning?

 

[Anura]

The MH3U OT would be a great start and is a decent primer to MH. Also be sure to try many weapons when just starting off, there is something for everyone and you just have to find it

Edit to vareon: Those new excavation armor stuff has everyone questioning that as it showed Ludroth armor. I am a little skeptical myself that it also applies to non-excavation gear but I can not be sure

 

[Tenbatsu]

From the new mining armor system?

I'm guessing this is local play?

Oooh I didn't know this.

Okay, I'll check that out.

I've noticed some people expect a midnight eShop launch, but Capcom said it's not scheduled for a midnight release. It might go up several hours later.

Yeah I've heard the same... Oh well

Edit: actually after checking out the 3U OT it's pretty barren, I remember reading some good wright ups there but I guess they're buried a bit... So sorry!

 

[Oichi]

There's a new excavation system as well as a new trading system. There's a new NPC in your town called the Wyvern Trader, so.... :X

Yeah, I noticed :'[
It might be better to look for beginner tips in Japanese anyway, what with the game itself being in Japanese.

Me or other MH gaf members can answer any questions to the best of our knowledge should you need help

[KillerTravis]

So has the game been released already? I just searched MH4 on Twitter and there are like 10 posts every second.

Street dates are being broken but the game isn't officially out yet.

Also, is it just me, or am I seeing a lot less to almost no friendly fire at all?

I wish Nintendo would chuck a 2DS into JP so I can just import this already.

The wait is becoming unbearable!

Big green snake up on stream.

 

[mineskiller]

More returning monsters plus subs? I'm seriously tempted to important a Japanese 3DS right now imo.

 

[Fistwell]

Are you importing?

Are you? Fuck... stop tempting me you guys, for cereal...

 

[Hasemo]

Will be there at 10AM on Saturday, because my local store doesn't do the midnight releases.

MH has a power over me few games do. Oh, I'll be broke when its over, but I'll be happily broke. lol

Play asia is where I got mine back with MH3G but they're pricey. The other importers here might have better advice so listen to them and shop around before settling

Doesn't seem too bad, around 300 Swiss Furrets for console + game + circle pad. Any and every pack-in deal with XL+1 game around here is already more expensive than that.

Edit: Thanks for the tips!

Nippon Yasan is the cheapest I suppose. Exclude shipping.

Feather Gunlance. Maybe as per what Oichi mentioned, you get the materials from the Wyvern trader....

I am getting psyched up, streams are helping too.
