    My biggest gripe with the 3ds is that the thumbpad just slips if youve been playing for a while and your hands get sweaty, and lets be honest we all the play games for hours at a time, so that matters. A playstation controller just seems to get more airflow to your hands and the joysticks at least have a little grip on them.

    If only there was something on the market that gave both people who prefer a home console and people who like portability something to enjoy in one unit. That would have been perfect for Monster Hunter.
    I mean, I have a PS4 anyway and the beta was loads of fun. So whatever.

    I'd still buy a Switch version too if they ever made one.

    So a PS4 a vita and remote play, got it.

    I've had to repair my 3DS thumbpad two times. And I've had to repair 3DS shoulder buttons, too. And I've purchased three of them over the years, only for Monster Hunter.

    I may have a problem.

    I replaced the thumbpad with the PSP's stick and it is an absolute improvement. Incredibly easy to do too.

    I can't remote play in the tunnel like my Switch. Generally my portable gaming is done on my commute, half of which has no reception.

    Man I don't know the list of monsters in the initial game or that are planned for later DLC but

    I hope Zinogre is in one of those lists

    I'm listening to Zinny's theme rn and it's one of the best pieces of game music ever made imo

    I want an all bug dlc where you just get to kill them eventually leading to eradicating them and then wearing the husks of their twisted broken bug bodies...

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    I once did a "no-carve" Pokke Farm challenge in Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, where I took a character all the way to G-rank 9 without carving anything and only using mats that I could acquire from the Pokke Farm side area. The vast majority of his armor and weapons were made from harvested bugs from the Pokke Farm.

    ................I'm in love with this idea

    I'm also really eager to see what the skills are on the bug armors in Worlds, since they redid the skill system

    I am going to play the hell out of this. Whether online is a thing that works or not is yet to be seen, as the internet was just nuked from orbit... Hopefully this isn't an always online required thing. It hasn't been in the past, but it's capcom so who knows.

    Ah same here, I'm really eager to play with my friends again, we only played for less than 2 hours yet we had an amazing time doing so.

    I just read that now all missions are available in multiplayer, so you won't be forced to solo them. A bit of a bummer really. I have been on blackout mode for this game, I know very little about the available monsters, I want to be surprised when I see them for the first time just like I did in MH4U.

    Same. If I have to I'll play it solo. The suck thing about it being on PS4 at that point would be no-local wireless play like on 3ds so no local MH get togethers. Hopefully that won't be an actual issue though.

    I am however waiting for abit to see how this goes before I preorder it because my ISP might suddenly put in data caps that prevent me from DLing a huge game, so I'm probably going to buy MHW on disc just in case.

    I haven't seen a list either, but there's no way that Zinogre isn't going to be in it, or in any other Monster Hunter game in the near future.

    Bizarrely, Rajang is probably going to be in there as well. You'd think that with all of the emphasis they've been putting on Rajang's superior replacement, they'd actually cut Rajang at some point.

    Someone mention that Zinorge armor was spotted on some Japanese stream/footage while I was on the giant bomb chat watching monster hunter world so take that as you will.

    I'm so happy to hear that lots of new players are getting worked up about this installment and will be the gateway to pull them into the world of monster Hunter.

    I also would like it for new players to experience the joy of hunting and then que music as mighty Devil-Jo turns up and says "Hi!"

    As a broad and bias statement but I have full faith that this is going to be on GOTY 2018 lists. Certainly will be on mine.

    I noticed that the damage from the Lance's mid and high thrust were the same.

    I will have to test and make sure but it looks like they equalized it. It'll be hard to get over always prioritizing high thrusts if it's true.

    I always make Zinogre armor and never use it because the skills aren't what I like

    Here's hoping that the skill revamp helps me out

    Or just use it anyway, I think I'm good enough at the game now to use mediocre armor sets effectively

    There is a cosmetic armor system in world. You should be able to make any armor look like Zin's.

    And even a hide helmet option! Finally customizing your character will make sense.

    Really hope Zinogre is in the game, but in MH4U for example, there were multiple armor sets from monsters not in the game, which you got the materials from the Wycoon by trading other monster parts.

    Is this explicitly confirmed? I tried to find clear verification of the idea a couple weeks ago but didn't manage to turn up anything.

    It is stated in the deluxe edition in the marketing for the samurai armor.

    They mention a layered armor system for having your armor look different than function.

    Also, my friend, who was super adamant about waiting for PC, is now buying my old PS4 which I lent him last weekend for MHW just for this game. System seller indeed.

    8-4 play mentioned on their podcast the beta was an older build. Could be a new build? The same or maybe a special festive hunt?

    Important to note that on release 8-4 play will be getting Gajin Hunter on their 200th podcast.

    It pleases me greatly that the Monster Hunter team are playing all the right moves at the moment.
