Calling All Hunters!

What rank are you?
What's your favorite weapon choice?
Which Monster do you hunt the most and which is your favorite?

Right now I'm HR 277. I prefer hammers but occasionally I use guns. I don't even know what I hunt the most, I usually let other people choose the quest. My favorite monster is rhenoplos (not really)

My first Monster Hunter game was Tri on the Wii, I played it until the servers shut down but I don't know if I can get Mh4 :/

If anyone wants to hunt with me, send me a message and add my NNID I need more hunting buddies

Frenzy? WTF

- - - Post Merge - - -

We need the white Fatalis, Do you guys have any favorite monster soundtrack?

 
More Localization:
- Amphibian species will stay as Amphibian
- Tigrex Subspecies is now known as Brute Tigrex
- Infected Tigrex is now known as Frenzied Tigrex (wtf)
-- So now I guess all other monsters that have been infected will now be known as "Frenzied [monster]"

Ya that's what I would've thought too but guess not.


Anyway, I've started playing around on 3u with different weapons, I've tried out the hammer, hunting horn, and three gunner weapons, they're pretty cool, especially the hunting horn, it just takes some time to get used to.
 
Gonna have to pass on MH4. I have a really difficult time working the 3DS with MH and I wouldn't be able to enjoy it.


As far as MH3U though I think the last I checked I was HR80. My favorite weapon is the gunlance. I think I hunt Zinogre/Stigian the most and I'd say those are my favorites.

Been playing MH since Freedom. Gotta say that I've been playing less lately but if MH4 got a Wii U release I'd probably play it nonstop.

I'm not a big monster hunter person, but I'm willing to try it again if it gets a wii u release. I've only played Freedom Unite.
 
Kogath has given us some more info about palicoes. It's not "new info" it's just info from mh4 that he gave us about their roles in the game etc but it's interesting so I'm posting it;

Basics:
Palicoes are a bit different in Monster Hunter 4 compared to the Felyne Comrades of Freedom Unite and Portable 3rd. There are 8 different types of Palicoes; Leader (which only your Leader can have, more on that later), Attack, Defense, Trap, Healing, Bomb, Gather, and Steal. Each type has their own set of skills. Felynes found hanging around the Felyne camp can sometimes be recruited as a Palico if you talk with them, or they can also be found randomly in the Unknown Forest as well as gained through DLC. You will not know what type they are nor the skills they have until after the quest when you choose to recruit them, but you can see their equipment on them if they have any equipped. You can have a total of 40 Palicoes at one time.

Leader Palico:
The Leader Palico is handled a bit differently from your normal Palicoes. When you create your character, you also get to create your Leader Palico. You can change its breed, color, eye type, ear type, tail type, and even the meow. Put some thought into this Felyne as you’ll be using it a lot throughout your hunting career. You must bring your Leader Palico if you want to bring another Palico with you on a quest, and it’s the one you’ll use if you play Online with another player.

Leader Palico Skills and Main Team:
Like any good leader, the Leader Palico is affected by the troops under its command. Your Main Team of Palicoes consists of up to 5 Palicoes which can be equipped and 1 of them can be used in quests along with the Leader Palico. The types of Palicoes you have in your Main Team directly affect the skills of your Leader Palico. 2 of one type of Palico will give your Leader Palico a skill of that type, and it will gain another skill for 3, 4, and 5 of that type. At 3 of one type of Palico, your Leader will become that type of Palico and act accordingly. It’s possible to mix skills from two types if you use 2 of one type and 3 of another, for example; I personally use 2 Heal types and 3 Trap types in my Main Team, which gives my Leader Palico 1 skill from the Heal Type, and 2 skills from the Trap type.

More about palicoes;

Team Up Attacks:
On hunts your Palicoes can team up to do one of 3 special attacks. They can even be done with another Hunter’s Palico. Each special attack also has 3 varying strengths shown by changing appearances, most noticeable with the Felyne Fire Wyvern Tank which takes the appearance of a Rathalos, Azure Rathalos, or Silver Rathalos.
The Felyne Fire Wyvern Tank moves slowly and has trouble tracking faster monsters, but its shots are quite powerful. It can be destroyed if it takes enough damage though.
The Felyne Rocket attack has the Palicoes ride a rocket towards a monster, exploding in the face of the monster as the Palicoes latch onto the monster and fiercely claw it, leaving it distracted for attacks.
The Felyne Horn has the Palicoes play a healing song on a special horn. They can’t be knocked out of this so it’s really useful.


Palico Equipment:
Equipment for Palicoes in MH4 is handled similar to how it is in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. There are a few differences such as the Head Armor changing what type of monsters the Palico will target, and some sets even increase the health of Palicoes. The Khezu Cat Armor here for example will make the Palico target Small Monsters First, and also increases the health of the Palico by +5 for the full set.

Monyan Hunts:
In Monster Hunter Portable 3rd you could send your Palicoes out to hunt monsters similar to the Hunters for Hire system. In Monster Hunter 4, Palico equipment is still made from scraps, similar to how it was in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, but now you must send your Palicoes out on special hunts against monsters in order to get scraps.

You start out by picking one of 3 possible paths for your Palicoes to take. Each path has a short, medium, and long journey they can take, and it shows what monsters await at each distance and what type of attacks they’ll use. A star icon next to a monster means you’ll get bonus rewards if you beat it. There are 3 little meat bun icons that show how far the Palicoes can travel which regenerate after you finish quests. After you decide on which path to take, you can decide which Palicoes should go on the hunt. It will show what attacks each Palico knows so you should choose ones that are strong against the attacks of the monsters you’re hunting.

The battle system is a simple Rock, Paper, Scissors format, with a Felyne theme of course. Blue (Claws) beats Yellow. Yellow (Boomerang) beats Red. Red (Bombs) beats Blue. There are also some song colors (Teal, Green, Orange, and White) but I haven’t really gotten them to work and they seem to activate randomly and it will give you less attacks to work with so I haven’t found them useful.

When going up against monsters you’ll see your current path along with the monsters and their attack types, on the top screen while the action takes place on the bottom screen. You’ll get to choose what type of attack to use on the monster depending on the types of Palicoes you brought. Some Palicoes have two types of attacks, but they’re weaker than a Palico with a single type. Having multiple of the same type will have them combine for an ever bigger attack that will do more damage. Monsters with multiple attack types are especially tricky as you won’t know which one they will choose. Another thing to note is if you don’t choose an attack quickly, your turn will be skipped and the monster will get a free attack. Even if you don’t win the exchange, some damage will still be done to both sides. Your Palicoes will heal in between battles, but they won’t heal completely if they took too much damage. There also seems to be a way for local hunters to help during these battles, but I haven’t had a chance to try that out.
 
#MH4U introduces two new monsters that can do combo attacks: Seltas and Seltas Queen! http://goo.gl/A24kSN

so Generu Serutasu is known as Seltas Queen, and Aruserutasu is known at Seltas. Kinda like these names tbh (also they talk about them and show off some of their weapons and armor in the article)

also
"Check back next week to read about one of the hottest Elder Dragons around! ;)"

probs fatalis or teostra

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Localization Names

Nerusukyura is now Nerscylla

Zaboazarigu is now Zamtrios

Garara Ajara is now Najarala
 
Okay with MH4 coming out soon! Eek, can't wait!!
I just want to rank up, built armour, and just hunt while I wait!

Too bad MH3U for 3ds doesn't come with online multiplayer feature except on the Wii U.

I'm just wondering if there are others here who play that game.
What rank are you?
What's your favorite weapon choice?
Which Monster do you hunt the most and which is your favorite?

What are your thoughts about this series?

I won't get mh4 unless it comes out on wii u.

I'm rank 1.

My main weapon is dual blades, but I've been using a hammer a bit recently.

I don't like hunting any monsters and I hate them all.

This is the first monster hunter game I've played and I'm worried that I'm only enjoying it because of this fact, and that any new ones aren't gonna be drastically different.
 
http://www.capcom-unity.com/dubindo...nster-spotlight-teostra-the-flame-king-dragon

> Teostra back for MH4U (though this was a given since he was in 4)
> Can inflict 'slime'
> Slimeblight now known as 'blastblight'
> Slime element now known as 'blast' element
> Teostra makes 'blast' element weapons, and not fire

Next week will focus on the monkey thing (kechaawahchhahewa) so we'll probably get his english name then.

I have Monster Hunter Freedom Unite I believe, but never got into it. I might give it a go again one of these days.
 
Meanwhile Lunastra is nowhere in sight. How are we going to hunt both at the same time now?? Capcom, are you even trying?

im guessing lunastra will be in 4U (probs to be revealed in the second or third trailer). it was weird not to have her in 4, so makes sense for her to be in 4U (tho you could get her weapons through resource trade in 4).
but teostra and lunastra are basically the same, i'd rather they leave her slot for a new monster (chameleos???) instead of dropping her in as a clone

That is true, and I'd definitely like to see a revamped Chameleos. As far as elder dragons go, I'd like to see Amatsumagatsuchi as well. It's like fighting a leviathan in water, which would be interesting, as there is no underwater combat in MH4U.
Speaking of no underwater combat, I wish Ivory Lagiacrus could be in the game, but it would be weird to have a subspecies without the main.
Just personal, but probably not worth putting in: Gigginox and Lao-Shan Lung, the latter of which has to be one of the cutest elder dragons I swear
 
so uh wow please say I'm not the only one here who tried the recent MHFU iOS port and in absolute love with it ;w;

The simple addition of Wi-Fi multiplayer just expands a lot of my options. Like I hate all ranged weapons in solo play, but I tend to enjoy standing back and firing damage/healing shots when there are other people playing with me.
