DON'T BE PULLING A CALL OF DUTY ON US CAPCOM...
I mean, I love Monster Hunter 4, but I'm not ready for 5 just yet D':
Besides that, I love the plans they have for it.

Well, first of all, it's Japan only (for now anyway), and it's a spin off title... So why are you complaining?
Secondly, spin off titles nearly never make it outside of Japan. Japan has had a release of 19 Monster Hunter games (main series and spin offs), 21 if you include Monster Hunter X and Monster Hunter Chronicles which haven't been released, and then 4339242974 if you count all the instalments of Frontier, whilst the west has only seen 8 (7 main series, and one spin off). I highly doubt this game is going to make is going to make it to the west, but it's Monster Hunter, so I'd love for it to come here, but if it does, it wont be for at least another year.

The reason why I'm complaining really is that I feel it's too soon, even though as you said, western areas aren't going to be expected to get it till later next year.
However how is Cross a spin-off? That looks exactly like a known MH release.

MH4G released in Japan October 3rd last year, that's more than 6 months, and they've only just announced (meaning it wont be out for a while anyway), and it's a spin off, so how can it be "too soon"?? It's not even a main series title.
From what I've seen the "X" is essentially a "4 cross points", meaning, it will focus on each generation so far. 4 styles of playing, 4 flag ship monsters, 4 villagers (from 1st-4th gen), etc...
Until it's actually a new gen (such as 5th gen), it's still a spin off.

anyway, here are tweets from someone who was at an MH event before the direct,
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
Focus on the hunter and doing flashy and cool action
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
Unbelievable new super actions for all weapons much more than just a few new moves
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
**** load of new monster and even village from potable 3 is back
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
cross has lots of meanings which they will talk about
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
Concept is taking the action and making it stkish and varied enough thy everyone can find their own unique style
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
Classes now have special attacks tha you can activate as an accent to the action
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
4 styles of playing to choose from. Changes your special moves you can do. Real focus on personalization of your hunting style
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
Villages from 2nd and 3rd and 1st gen reappear
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
New areas and new monsters even new small monsters
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
4 flagship monsters
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
One is under water? Maybe underwater battles is back??
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
No underwater was shown I was reacting to concept art of one of the 4 flagship monsters
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
They made it sound like any weapon can get a charge/mount attack etc aka things that change how you approach stuff, plus special techniques
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
x cross stands for the 4 styles the 4 new monsters the 4 villages etc
Adam Evanko (GH) @aevanko 3h3 hours ago
It looked like an extension of 4G so I don't see why the west won't get it

even though there are "new monster", i still don't think it's a new title. I see it more like the frontier series, which is separate the the main series. Just because it's a "spin off" doesn't mean it can't have action/gameplay similar to the main series.

I've only started getting into the monster hunter series (The Wii U one was my first game). I had no idea there were that many games lol... I knew they dated back to the PS2 era but jesus christ 21?!
I hope the spin off makes it overseas!
btw is monster hunter online considered third or fourth gen?
Neither, it's a spin off.
I still see it as a spin off for the fourth gen. maybe once they release more details, it'll make more sense as a fourth gen game to me, but it just looks like a spin off or a half gen game.
Atm I'm thinking it's a sequel to the entire MH series, seeing as it has elements of 4, 3 etc.
honestly, if i were to see it as anything, i'd see it as it's entire own new series, much like frontier and online. but that's just me
also famitsu is due out tomorrow so we should have some new info sooner or later. these are apparently 3 "leaks" from famitsu, so grain of salt, but we'll find out if they're legit in a couple of hours.
- 5 super skills (out of 156) shown
- breakable environment parts
- something about using a insect to gather materials on the map

I'm not sure why it would be called a spin off. There may be a lot of map reusage going on, but at the same time we are getting a lot of new armor pieces, new towns, possible town customization. To top it all off, they are going to add to every weapons movesets, which in my opinion is what the game really needed. I see no reason to branch this off from the main series, that really doesn't serve a real purpose when this new game is going to do the same and attempt to add to the monster hunter formula. It would also be a dumb choice to not bring this out in the west, especially with all the momentum that monster 4u has had.
I'm hyped for it and Gaijin hunter put up a video translating the scans if any of you haven't already seen it.

Monster Hunter X features 14 weapon classes. Players will be able to choose from the Great Sword, Long Sword, Sword and Shield, Dual Blades, Lance, Gunlance, Hammer, Hunting Horn, Switch Axe, Charge Blade, Insect Glaive, Bow, Light Bowgun, and Heavy Bowgun.
Monster Hunter X will also include four main monsters, Famitsu states. Capcom is featuring a Brute Wyvern, a Flying Wyvern, a Leviathan, and a Fanged Beast.
Continuing on the topic of numbers, there are four Hunting Styles for all weapons, and you choose one of them. Here’s a breakdown of each:
– Light Bowgun x Hunting Style 1: Shoot from high above the monster.
– Sword and Shield x Hunting Style 2: The blade changes and has added effects.
– Great Sword x Hunting Style 3: A powerful Hunting Technique causes an explosion. Specializes in Hunting Techniques.
– Dual Blades x Hunting Style 4: Dodge danger, like fire breath of Rathalos, and counter attack.
Hunting Technique is an attack action that varies by weapon. Functions include dealing massive damage, making the user stronger, and healing nearby allies.
When Monster Hunter X was announced, Capcom revealed that you’ll be able to visit villages from previous Monster Hunter games. In addition to Yukumo Village from Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, you’ll be able to travel to Pokke Village from Monster Hunter Freedom 2 and Kokoto Village from Monster Hunter/Monster Hunter Freedom.
Finally, a few more tidbits:
– Verna Village, the main village, is where you’ll meet quest clients and manufacture weapons
– Felynes make an appearance
– The new fields includes a primeval forest with overgrown vegetation, a vast grassland, and a cave
Monster Hunter X arrives in Japan this winter. Famitsu says the game is 60 percent complete.
