Topic: Monster Hunter Rise

So, I have yet to watch it, I was very busy today, was their anything announced for village and MHS2? Or anything else I should know?

I would t worry too much about that. Generation and GU were intended as celebrations for MH so Capcom shoved as much old monsters and such into the game as possible. It was basically them making the most of all the assets they’ve gathered over the years.

Rise is being made on a different engine entirely now so them doing that will be more difficult. Which is probably why we see them focusing so much on newer stuff.

@JaxonH The best combos from Hunter Styles have been incorporated into organic actions connected to Wirebugs. It's amazing and so impressive to see the weaving and building of incremental improvements from a dev team. MonHun devs really are some of the best in the business.

I completely forgot the TGS showcase was today. Did I miss anything else besides this cool footage?

@Tyranexx Only thing we got was an altered trailer, I think there's like a couple of extended clips but that's about it. The real Rise event starts tomorrow.

I think Magnamalo is my new favorite flagship monster. I love it so much.

I loved Brachydios, the flagship of MH3U. I didn’t really like Gore Magala, the flagship of MH4U. I liked fighting it, but the design never won me over. Nergigante, the flagship of MH World, was better than Gore Magala but still not my favorite. Definitely a step up though. The Fated Four were really awesome in MH Generations. Astalos, Glavenus, Mitzusune and Gammoth. I liked Glavenus the most (and Astalos). And Valstrax, the flagship of MH Generations Ultimate, was really freaking awesome.

But Magnamalo tops all of them, I think. It’s design is so cool! It’s like, designed after that guy in a samurai mask with the antlers and demon face, with two swords kind of like the sword claws sticking out of Magnamalo’s front feet, and the spear tail that forks out to become like a trident. And the colors are gorgeous. He just looks so cool, and the purple light stuff is the cherry on top.

Wrong flagship/game, lol
Gore is the flagship of MH4, MH4U's flagship is Seregios.

@Joeynator3000
I suppose you’re right, but since we never got MH4 in the west, Gore Magala felt like the flagship, since it was the star of the core game we never got. They put Gore Magala on the cover art for the game too.

But as for Seregios, I love it. One of my favorites, actually.

Yeah I don't know why they changed the boxart for the west, the original was so much better. lol
_{insert failed image post here, lol}

Your pic isn’t showing but I got it. It’s absolutely raw with that Steve on the cover... I love it.

....Ugh, of course it's not...it's showing on my side....stupid imgur or whatever that site it. -.-

Imgur is actually usually great. But I only use it for collections of pics you can scroll through. For single pics, postimage.org has always worked great for me. I copy the “Hotlink for forums” link in the list of choices provided once uploaded. You just have to remove the ad links that get pasted in sometimes. It happens randomly but, once you know what to look for it’s easy to remove that part of the link once posted in the text box.

.....Anyways yeah, 4U's flagship was Seregios. lol

@Joeynator3000 Ah, so I was off a day. Phew! Weird week lol.

Yeah, I think their main focus today were on other games.

I’ve actually really warmed up to Magnamalo. I really like it now. Although a seems a fair amount of people seem to dislike it online, and think it’s too over designed. Which I can understand but I feel like we’ve had multiple flagships like this.

Especially in Generations I feel like I remember people complaining about Glavenus (Back when he was still called Dinovaldo) being too on the nose, unrealistic. and overdesigned. I remember you were around a lot for that @Joeynator3000

Started playing through MHW with friends on gamepass and then monster hunter rise was announced! Just now getting into the series but excited for the new game. Also dunno if this has been said or not but monster hunter 4 ultimate is on sale for 70% off in the NA eshop on 3ds. Just got it myself if anyone is looking to do some co-op sometime.

How likely is it that the flagships that missed out on being added to World in Iceborne will return in Rise? For a refresher those are Lagiacrus, Gore Magala, Seregios, the 3 remaining Fated Four members(Astalos, Gammoth, Mizutsune), and Valstrax.

@IronWarrior94
I’m not sure we’ll get all of them, but certainly some. Keep in mind Rise will also get new monsters added in with updates over time, and will also have a lot more added with the Ultimate expansion, so I think overall, when everything is said and done, we’ll have seen at least half of those (maybe most or all if we’re super lucky)

@JaxonH Which flagships do you think are most likely, and which do you think are the least?
