Topic: Monster Hunter 3DS

Oh yeah...and this http://www.siliconera.com/2011/09/29/monster-hunter-3gs-twelv...

Because- they rather be cry babies than to actually wait and see how it actually feels to have it in their hands.

thanks @arcanum for the weapon confirmation. I still think that the light and heavy bow gun are the same. but its all good, as long as there is the bow.

oh and the attachment looks bulky but if its comfortable and it works, then its good :3

Saying the LBG and HBG are the same is like saying the dual blades and sword and shield, or Lance and Gunlance (in MHFU at least) are the same. While they both play similarly, they have noticeable differences as well. Especially in P3rd, they changed up the mechanics of light and heavy types a lot.

...I can't say too much though as I only recently started using LBGs, and only in MHFU.

OR like saying the Hunting Horn is the same as the Hammer!

_...What?

well obviously @zezhyrule ive put my hours on all the MH games and i definitely know theres a difference between light and heavy bowguns. Ive played with both and what im really saying is if they made a the light and heavy in different categories, then they should've but the medium bowgun in its own category. it just would've been nice it have a new weapon in MH3 G But it really doesn't matter right now, tho i hope that they will have a few new weapons in MH 4.

Actually at first I thought it was going to feel and look horrid, but after seeing actual images of the thing in the hands of players at TGS, it doesn't look that bad. And they said it fits in your hands comfortably, so yeah. (still dunno if I'm getting it or not though, lol)

Yeah I think I posted a pic of it in this thread a while back, it seems kinda comfortable really. The only thing I'm really worried about is the placement of the analog being to the right of the buttons Dx

I'm warming up to the Frankenstick now, and if MHTriG/4 comes out Stateside, I may be buying the attachment since my hands are gigantic. What I'm weary of though is the screen being off-center. Makes me wonder if the revision will be dual analogue.

I agree with zez for once. It'll be nice to have some added bulk since the 3DS feels tiny in my hands.

Seriously. the bulk is to make it extremely comfortable.

Just don't scream at me any more ;___;

I did pick an opinion. Perhaps I was hazy. Yes, the hit boxes were a little bit broken, and should've been fixed. But from "broken" they've gone to "almost nonexistant". And I know they exist. I was exaggerating, obviously. My point is it was from one extreme to another. As for newbs struggling... that's why I liked G Rank I guess. Really, I don't think it would've been a problem. I doubt many Japanese gamers would've had a problem if it were harder. I'm just saying, PLEASE make Tri G at least as hard as Tri, and don't make it too easy like P3rd, or easier. I don't want another Portable 3rd. I'm not asking them to rebreak Plessy's hip check, just asking them not to nerf it too badly. I fear because it's a 3DS game Capcom will want to make it easier due to the somewhat different audience. I've never understood the problems with the difficulty. I guess because I was comfortable with it even as a newb. I'd rather have it on the harder side and have all the newbs complaining until they get better, than have it too easy and all the decent players whining forever. MH without difficulty is not worth playing. At all. I only play it because it is somewhat skillful, and a challenge. Take out the challenge, and the online multiplayer in this case, and all you're left with is a mindless grind-fest with an archaic battle system.

Also, about how any MH will be a breeze besides your first, in case you didn't hear me, I breezed through Tri's offline and failed only one quest. It was my first MH, and only after I was done did I bother to look anything up. That was fine though, because online it was harder and there were a few more monsters. In Tri G's case, there will be a G rank and so that initial difficulty level is fine with me. I'm just afraid it'll be too easy, and no longer really a Monster Hunter, and instead a mindless hack and slash. It is not fun when you can pick up an SnS, and just mash a few buttons while occasionally rolling away. The key thing that makes MH MH is its difficulty. Don't screw that up, I'll be happy.

EDIT:

QFT. I use all weapons, and LBG/HBG play very differently. A LBG's strength is in support during multiplayer. A HBG can dish out a ton more damage. A LBG offers much more mobility, so is often favoured by newer gunners, but most end up transitioning to HBG if they solo. Their play styles are different. I've often heard people say SnS and DS should not be separate weapons, which is absurd if you've ever used a air of Duals in your life. Same with Lance and Gunlance. The Lance is generally poke, poke, poke, backhop, while the GL is much more complex. You have uppercuts, lower mobility, shelling, wyvern fire, etcetera to deal with.

You're certainly a rare case then.

imo MHP3 is much harder than MHT, but whatev'

Meh. I pick things up faster than most, so I guess that's why. I generally don't have much problems with difficulty. Maybe MH should have difficulty settings to control the damage monsters do etcetera? I guess the ranks already take care of that, somewhat... maybe in addition to ranks it'd help.

Yeah, difficulty settings wouldn't work well in this game, lol. I can see people taking advantage of it and make forging equipment super easy...which, kinda kills the whole purpose of even playing the game. lol

I want my monsters that have OHKO moves back >:[
_{even will max health and highest defense possible D:}

Well maybe they can make it so that the easy mode has very low percentage carve rate on rare items and the same percentage for more common carves... where did I play this....there was a game that did that......
OH! The World Ends With You did that. you can set the difficulty easier but you get crappy item drops, or you can set it higher and you get more chances of getting something very rare. Plus you could bring your own level down so that the percentage of those rare items gets higher. Of course the battles start to get more intense especially if you fight black noise and chain like 1 million, in which case each reduction gets more difficult....Whoa I went off topic fast and brought back some nightmares.

Or they can just have ranks like they've done in every game before. Village quests are the nooby ones, Low Rank is same monsters but with higher health, High Rank they get a couple crazier moves and more health/attack power, and G rank gives them crazy attack power and more health.

some people found even the nooby ones too hard. Especially this one infuriating son of a ***** I hate that guy so much I just grrrr
