I will live in this thread. Be warned, I guess.

 

[Danjin44]

I'm soooooo ready for this!

 

[yet_another_alt]

Are those chairs branded specifically for Wilds or MH in general? Cause wow if that's a confirmation of Fatalis being in the game.

They are for Wilds

 

[Lokaum D+]

waiting for digital foundry review to decide if i ll play on PC or base PS5

 

[R6Rider]

Very nice OT!

I'm getting it on PS5 to play with some friends.

What is everyone planning to use as their weapons?

I'm leaning towards Hammer/Gunlance.

 

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

My body is ready…it’s everything else in my life that isn’t ready for the neglect.

Lets
Go
HH x LS!!!!

I liked Fatalis in Iceborne HUGE improvement over old world Fatalis but if they gonna bring final boss elder Dragon I rather they do....

[Kilau]

I really want this but I’m way too busy with my new job. Going to wait a few weeks/months so I’m not staying up late to play.

 

[mèx]

The beta didn't convince me. Let's see if the full game manages to win me over.

I hope they made some relevant performance improvements with the final build.

What is everyone planning to use as their weapons?

HBG most likely. Not a fan of focus mode on melee weapons.

I played the beta 40 hours and still don't know. Having a heavy bowgun in the kit was pretty interesting, being able to use the special ammo to just tenderize a monster's face every couple of mins between attacking with something else more technical.

Might S&S or Lance through the low rank, but will probably bounce between everything to keep it feeling fresh.

Can’t wait to play with a crew on GAF

Hey, btw... it's crossplay. You can play on whatever and still team up with your friends.

Yeah, I know, but we chat in PSN parties and it just makes it easier overall. Plus I pay for PS+ anyway.

 

[Danjin44]

What is everyone planning to use as their weapons?

My second weapon either Hammer or Bow.

 

[ssringo]

Charge Blade. Because dicking around with Hunter weapons is fun. After all...

 

[R6Rider]

Man, Glavenous was so fun to fight in World with a Hammer.

On the PSP entries I used to always use the Longsword

 

[Evolved1]

My second weapon either Hammer or Bow.

I don't read guides and stuff, or really watch people play, just figure stuff out on my own... Anyway I was never into LS, but played it probably 100 hrs between world and rise, never realized it was a counter-based weapon. Lol. I learned that on some random ass video I watched the other day while being hyped for Wilds.

Mind was truly blown. I felt so stupid. I felt... shame. I always thought LS just existed for randoms to annoy and stagger S&S players lol.

Added a poll for the people who want to brag about playtime

LS really become counter weapon with Iceborne update and LOVED it......I'm huge fan of parry its one of the reason why I like Sekiro so much.

Also as solo hunter LS just perfect weapon for me since I need all monster's attention on me to pull off counters consistently.

 

[R6Rider]

Currently #1 best seller on Amazon for PS5.

I'm getting the Steelbook Edition, but have a feeling I won't get it at launch because Amazon sucks now when it comes to release day delivery.

 

[TheKratos]

They are for Wilds

I'm pretty sure I've seen the Fata and Los chair when World came out. Only Arkveld is new.

GS/LS here, will prob play some SNS too. Also always wanted to get into hammer.

 

[R6Rider]

Also always wanted to get into hammer.

It's super easy to get into!

All you have to do is bonk the monster (preferably in the head) until it dies.

 

[Schmendrick]

Let's just hope they can do some last moment performance fixes with a day one patch or something. The dusty graphics are one thing, but MH has never done that well, so that's meh but I can live with it... That even a 4090 can't do locked 4k60 despite those visuals is infuriating though.

Also... Fatalis chairs... Damn another monster has just been spoiled.

 

[Icymanipulator]

Don’t think I’ve ever done lower then 500 hrs in any MH game, so I’m assuming at least that.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Hammer mains rise up

 

[bender]

I finally had some fun in the beta with the bowguns so I think I'm going to abandon the only weapon I've used in the MH series for them. Apologies to my bow brethren.

 

[demigod]

Give it to me baby

 

[Danjin44]

One thing I hope they do is to NEVER EVER make siege quest like Safi'jiiva and Kulve Taroth (high rank version).

I HATED those quest with passion, they are so unfun and the way you get their weapons through RNG was pure garbage.

Alatreon and Fatalis were 100 times more difficult but they MUCH more fun compare to those two.

 

[april6e]

I just got a new job and start in a few days, right before MH Wilds launch. I was enjoying being unemployed and actually being able to complete games for once. God, why hath you forsaken me so?

 

[readonly]

Not that I really care but when is the review embargo for this?

 

[Evolved1]

I just got a new job and start in a few days, right before MH Wilds launch. I was enjoying being unemployed and actually being able to complete games for once. God, why hath you forsaken me so?

i took off 9 days of vacation for this launch (including a few days prior, so i'd be sure to have all my necessary adulting done) but now i have a bunch of interviews scheduled for launch week. and some require travel. i thought it'd be weeks before getting callbacks... life is sometimes quite the prankster. adult in me should be thrilled, been working toward this for years. degenerate gamer in me is annoyed as fuck, been waiting for new mainline monster hunter even longer. sigh.

 

[Icymanipulator]

I took Friday and Monday off, so a nice 4 day session with nothing else to do. GF knows what’s up and she’ll be at a friends place for most of the weekend. Gonna no life this game hard.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Does the game have cross-in-game-voice chat?

Like can PS5 players hear PC players in the game?

 

[HRK69]

Real excited for this one. Please don't disappoint

I just don't want any gimmick fights. Rise had these serpents and I fucking hated them

 

[Pasta la Vista]

The only game that will break my PoE2 addiction.

 

[Danjin44]

If the "gimmicks" are fun like Alatreon element DPS check then I have no issue with that.

But Safi'jiiva's energy drain mechanic was pure garbage, it was grindy in a most unfun way.

I highly enjoyed World/Iceborne but I HATED the fact how much they shoved MP in your face, you can have a fun and challenging quests like Raging Brachydios and Fatalis that can be fun for both solo players and those who play multiplayer.

Alatreon is fun. I guess we have different definitions of gimmick haha

I'm talking about this trash:

Thunder Serpent Narwa

Thunder Serpent Narwa is a female Elder Dragon first introduced in Monster Hunter Rise. Narwa is the female of an Elder Dragon species that consists of itself and Wind Serpent Ibushi. Similar to Amatsu, this species has a long and leviathan-like body with short and stubby hind legs and a long...

I don’t know, Behemonth was by far my favorite hunt in the game.
I also liked how older Mh games actually were multiplayer focused. Since World it’s been much easier to just solo everything since they made the incredibly stupid decision to have combine village and guild quests. It used to be better to go multiplayer and play with people, now you’re just better off soloing everything.

So I particularly liked all the hunts like Kulve and Safi and Behemoth where the focus was back on hunting with a group.

I'm solo player I want to solo everything I hate quests locked behind multiplayer, so to me I'm glad recent MH games solo player friendly.

I fought Narwa I didn't mind the fight especially compare to borefest Zorah Magdaros in World.

Those 'fights' can fuck right off imo

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Alatreon was a retarded dps race; the exact opposite of fun, might be my most hated hunt of all time.
Fatalis however was pure cinema.

 

[Icymanipulator]

But yes fuck Zorah, that hunt was garbage.

I personally enjoyed Alatreon.

But my favourite hunts were Fatalis and.....
