bro i have like 200 hrs total in mh from mhfu, mh4u, mhg, and im still a low rank noob. crazy. idk if im rly sold on this. dunno why. may wait for switch 2.0 to enjoy it on proper fidelity

Wtf brother

Idk if u have a pc but it is coming there too

Towards the end of the year iirc

graphics aside, are the new additions / new monsters worth the $60 cop?

Finished up the village quests, now the real monster hunter starts

Hundred percent, some of the new monsters are my favourite ever. basing them on various japanese myths works so damn well. the wirebug and palamute are great additions as well and change the game fundamentally in a pretty major way, it’s gonna be weird going back to other MH games after this

I guess world was the one I played for a couple hours and then never played again. I dumped thousands of hours into 4 4Ultimate and generations. Soon this one but I never f***ed with world like that for some reason. Gathering halls probably

Dont know what you mean, it has gathering halls & iceborne has probably the best one so far.

Im mainly a solo hunter tho, & MHW has so much stuff leagues above the others & most of Rise is using World's template & standards.

MH 4s are my least favs. The 3ds era sucked major ass to me.

Well when I went to "gathering halls" they were always empty there was no people to play with and we would team up with people if fortunate once in a while then it would disband the whole crew after every game. I can't see anyone in my gathering halls in a game about flexing armor f*** that. Sos flares are cool I guess. But nothing beats teaming up with a crew of unstoppable randoms that steamroll everything and tackling mission after mission together.

But youre right about all the quality of life improvements in world. World is why monster hunter is popular in the west now

4s lobbies were great title it turn lobby or join a turn lobby take turns picking missions rinse and repeat.

You can tho lol, World is server based. If you jump in without picking a server, then it just default you to solo.

World as soon as you load up your profile asks you to pick a server or skip, & it shows the population if you choose not to skip.

And yes, you can see other rando players. You can even see their active quests & join them in the middle of it.

There are lots of little interactions you can do (and see others doing) in the halls & with each other too. Such as swimming & messing with the spa monkey things.

The disband is weird tho i give you that, but again thats an option and a default one. There's 4 options it presents all the players with after every quest.

But bro I played world with my friend and I can't even see him in my gathering hall. I don't like that system of active quest and sos. I like turn lobbies you can't beat a turn lobby

F*** yeah join my discord we need more people in there
discord.gg/awEwX7dT

I don't agree about world having the best environments either.i think these maps are better it was cool interacting with certain things in the world tho.

Fam idk what yall did wrong but this is simply not true:

You can see randos & friends if loaded in the same lobby/server, & you can all interact & pick quests there together

This is iceborne now, but its been like this since at least ive been playing. Which is the time deviljho came out, about two or three months in. I even arm wrestled niggas back then in the dining hall up from gathering.

I dont knock you if you prefer the other system of hub tho

And yes i just loaded that up n took the picture, denzel is me

Bro you serious right now?? F***....

But yes I like the hub thing

Yeah lol

I edited my other post with "This is iceborne now, but its been like this since at least ive been playing. Which is the time deviljho came out, about two or three months in. I even arm wrestled niggas back then in the dining hall up from gathering".

I respect it if you prefer the other system but you had me thinking i was crazy for a sec

Bruh Everytime I played world that hub was empty as f*** only f***ing merchants and wycoons

Did you start playing when iceborne came out?? They must've done some kind of sick update. I bought iceborne I had to but I never completed it.

Nah, as i said i started playing two or three months after OG was out. A lil before deviljho dropped, the first added monster.

Its literally always been like that as long as i load a server lobby.

When you pick your profile character, it brings you to a new menu that says "search for online", "create online sesh" & "create/search for a squad sesh".

Once you click "search online" then theres a new menu for "matchmaker", "filter search", "search via sesh id" & "search via play history".

Click matchmaking and it'll ask to continue the search, & if yes then it'll put you in the fastest populated lobby.

The rando matchmaking sesh i did for the pic had two people in it 💀

Bruh I didn't know any of this s***

LMAO well now you know & if u ever want to jump back in like say waiting for Rise big updates then you have Iceborne at its BEST now with all its content, game balancing & quality of life updates

Iceborne & its guiding lands engame is some of the best ever fr fr tho. But regardless, just be happy u can basically do it all from 0 if you decide to jump back in someday
