Oh this shit went F2P let's see how bad it i-AHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA
Holy fuck.
Dauntless
OVER 3 HOURS QUEUE
Epic sure picked a winner with this one!
So it's a massive success then?
No the servers are so fucked that no one can play it if too many people try to log on.
They even admitted on twitter that the way they built the server support means that adding more servers won't fix the problem.
i wonder how epic monetizes dauntless. Its obvious they paid to get the game which for a FTP game is HUGE but the idea of guaranteed sales doesn't really work.
So who does this cater to?
>Indie crowdfunded MH:W lite with Fortnite aesthetics F2P MMO on the EGS
Fuck's sake typing this gave me cancer. Didn't even know it was still developed until the thread spam started 2 days ago.
>not being able to play is a massive success
>these niggas never heard of elastic computing
Poor people who can't run MHW and don't have a 3ds or switch and can't emulate things like Portable 3rd?
Dont forget
>battlepass
>time gated time combination (24hrs to 72hrs)
>FOUR (4) currencies
>various cosmetic packs
How does a F2P game go F2P? That's like saying "I converted my car into a car".
You should buy an hourglass and wait for the sand to run out while you think about your posts before you click submit.
Serious question: how is it? A friend is inviting me to play. Never ever played any MH and don't have money for World so it's kinda tempting but there's >epic so.
>can't emulate things like Portable 3rd
isn't ppsspp some kind of magic that can be run on anything?
the fuck is a battlepass and why does it sound like cancer already?
I got in and well, this is not a promising first impression.
A resounding meh.
Even the older monhuns are better than it.
Fuck even the other monhun clones are better than it.
It wasn't f2p.
The last time I heard anyone say shit about this game I was pretty sure it was in a paid early access stage.
Don't worry, the second and third impressions will be worse.
wonderful
>Game is crowdfunded
>This shit is thrown on top anyway for maximum wealth extraction
battlepass is exactly how you think it is, just like in fortnite and whatever other game where you got to pay to get these "awesome" things
Basically all you do is enter an arena-like map, find the monster, and press attack until it stops moving. Monster Hunter is pretty much the same but requires more thinking.
>the fuck is a battlepass
It's a season pass but just for cosmetics and useless shit you can get for free in game.
I guess it was a paid game if you wanted a starter pack, but us big brains played for free by clicking "play" instead of "buy starter pack".
Sorry for your loss.
Some of the lategame monsters have pretty neat fights but its pretty meh overall. Just give it a shot if you are bored.
Soulless incarnate.
I opened the menu in a cutscene and now the hud is visible
battlepass is "earn rewards for playing" kind of cash grab, you can earn a tiny bit of rewards for free, emotes or weapon skins or whatever, but you need to buy in ($5 or $15, or whatever) in order to earn the PREMIUM battlepass shit, like character skins and lootboxes or whatever's listed.
This is a system to cover both the "constant playerbase" and "scalping wallets" aspects games have to deal with. If you buy the premium pass, then you have sunk-cost of NEEDING to play to earn those rewards, whereas if you just like playing you'll see all those REWARDS, you just need to buy in!
I personally think this is bullshit and the servers aren't full, and they're just setting the "max" limit to some bullshit number, or they randomly make people wait.
They're just trying to make the game look like it's busy by making you wait for no reason.
Now this...
Is Epic.
>want to play again since I played closed beta and quit and a lot has changed since
>EGS exclusive
It's a shame I want to play, but I'm not downloading chink software.
Yeah I was about to say it sounds like buying cosmetics that you still need to unlock. Fucked up but also kind of genius.
I-i can't even
the ps4 have major frame drops
Is there a point where these memes will eventually die? I guess not, seeing as people still dig out their wallets. I hate this era, man. Games as a service is a disease. What happened to just paying for a finished product. Really seems predatory on children too, hook them with a hot free game you payed the talking heads on youtube and twitch to shill, and then reel them in with the gacha boxes for that tasty gambling fix. Soft cartoony graphics, convoluted monetization made to milk idiots and kids, shilling in order to make the interest in the game look organic... These companies have it down to a science. It's disgusting.
Not surprised at all. The games optimization was horrible from the start.
This also, trying to fake popularity. Make something hard to access and people want it more.
It's pretty easy to get into and has cross-platform play. But it needs better content.
Still it's probably the best alternative to MHW if you're tired of that one.
Any webms of actual gameplay? Let me see what it actually looks like
Good lord this feels clunky and like nothing has any weight at all.
I'm yet to see a PS4 player online. I've only seen a few Xbox but never a PS4. Are consoles only allowed to crossplay with pc?
Why not just play an actual MH game instead, you can emulate every game before World and there's actual MMOs, 2 of them even, that you could play if you wanted. Who the fuck is this shit targeting
braindead westerners
its more like a hack n slash game the pike its fun
Don't forget how we'll probably end up with everything being an early access release we stream from monthly paid cloud services in the future.
On one hand, for people that do play a game alot, say you like to play Paladins (like I do) and just play for hours over the course of their battlepass season, then it's $5 for potentially 2 or 3 skins that you might like and some of their shit lootboxes or sprays and shit, maybe a game announcer voice which might be cool.
Now, I haven't seen any skins that I liked in their passes, but for people with less self-control (kids) then it's like OH MAN I WANT ALL THESE I JUST NEED TO GIVE THEM MONEY! Followed 3 months later by the same urge, and the shown fact that a person that spends even once, no matter how much they paid, are insanely more likely to spend again, and not just on the frugal value.
They're predatory practices. It's bad in who they target with them and the extent that they do it.
I think fortnite has it worse, with that randomized storefront, and the idea that THIS SKIN WILL ROTATE OUT IN 24 HOURS, IF YOU DON'T GET IT NOW YOU COULD NEVER SEE IT AGAIN bullshit.
>That bootleg Zinorge
Oh I am laughin
Is this that monster hunter clone?
youtube.com
Here's your monsters bro.
When i played the beta was a surprise, start incredibly bad, get progressively better...and then stop and you realize that is all the game has to offer. Didn't even entertain me enought to survive the release of mhw
The characters do a really bizzarre bowlegged run when they have their weapons sheathed.
It's absolutely baffling how someone saw that and thought it looked fine.
Aw geez stop bitching! Looks like a good Wii game...its a Wii game right?
It's funny! It's like a dance! haw haw haw haw
Animating is hard when you don't know what the fuck you're doing.
>gaijin hunter is a paid shill now
>Server based game
>Company NEVER realizes the sheer amount of people who aren't playing simply because of the pay wall
>No preparations are ever made
>Game dies for real because you can't play it unless you just never log out
I hate how the biggest monsters in this game are only slightly bigger than an elephant.
Hello this is your blacksmith say something nice about
>her
actually every monster hunter youtuber make a sponsored video
That's a man.
The power of EPICK money
they had all this time and so many complaints and the women still all look like trannies
Can someone translate this to english?
That smug negro lady's face peeking over the text box kinda pisses me off.
I had lots of fun with dauntless it just lacks content. In a year it prob be more lively
fun fact if you want to play solo the game makes you wait until find a empty session with a queue
The girls look ugly
Oh okay. I agree.
Wasn't it always f2p?
Those weird strawberry shaped heads are freaking me out.
The game is fucking shit.
Literally and I mean literally the only good part of this piece of shit is the hammer.
you can do a private hunt to completely skip that
I'm not one to complain about unrealistic weapons but what the fuck are these things?
at least in ps4 version i have to wait even in private
I played the beta months ago, the game isn't very good and all of the character creation options are hideous zoomer shit. Only played for an hour or so before uninstalling
you tickle the monsters then hit them while they're laughing
FUCK OFF BRAZIL IM TRYING TO PLAY
Tomahawks.
Gotta cash out before the game goes down. He has the perfect fanbase for it.
Don't worry, the men don't look better in that game. Not that the character creator in MHW is any better. The only character creator I really ever liked was the one from BDO.
Why the fuck is it so ugly?
You should seriously avoid this game until they fix all of the shit that's wrong with it
Forget MHW, just go play GodEater or Toukiden instead of this.
I remember playing some sort of alpha or beta of this. You guys know that soul vs souless meme? This is the apex of it. It's such a hollow representation of Monster Hunter. It also has SJW shit in it for some reason. In your settings you can "set" the gender the your characters.
Aside from the political bullshit, the weapon combos felt repetitive, and
why does the movement in this game feel slower than monster hunter? nothing feels like it hits hard enough to be satisfying.
also i really do think mh picked up a lot more when they added more vertical gameplay which this game doesn't have
God eater don't scratch the same itch.
>Toukiden
What in fuck is this? it looks legit awful.
>the game has a dedicated button for jumping
>no aerials attacks
>MonHun Battle Pass
So do you do event quests and beat up said monster for points towards rare mats?
So you play this instead?
At least the faces in MHW aren't whatever stockpile Fortnite pulled from, that hard angle jawline, no nuanced flatface in dauntless is just ugly.
I'm not a fan of the art style at all, it looks like something pre-packaged from the engine that people can slap together. Maybe I'm wrong, I hope I'm not, otherwise that means they wasted time and money on making it look bland as hell.
I don't know, I just... It's worse than fortnite.
Also here's the money maker they're banking on I suppose.
like what the fuck were they thinking?
also wading around the fucking town area is painful, running in this game feels like i'm dick deep in molasses.
>ninja skins
>you can't even climb fucking trees in the game
I get that they're beaver teeth but why are they sideways and not formed into one point to form a scythe?
that reminds me that they are like 3 or 4 ways in the same place to open the store in town
back to /pol/
Is that fornite?
can we stop these ironic discord posts? we need some new material, this is getting old
>m-muh /pol/
What the fuck are you even saying right now? The characters look ugly.
>Not using the axe for that uber damage
Dauntless was alright. I played it for like a week back in closed beta but I could see kids enjoying it for a while. Character models are hot garbage though, and lots of monsters are palette swaps
Thanks for selling me things Halo ODST man.
>ex friend of mine got a job offer to work on the game
>they told him he has to kill off his monhun community or he should fuck off
>he did it and killed off his friend circle too
>left the company a year later
Imagine
No i've been playing monster hunter there is no reason to play dauntless
>That kunai DB
That looks like two Fortnite pickaxes put together, they couldn't make them into sickles?
>he has to kill off his monhun community
Wait what was he exactly?
>they managed to make something so atrocious no one will ever be able to complain about the handler in World again
Jesus
>Went
It has always been f2p, people have been able to download and play this turd for free since last year.
A hunter. His community had become a monster
He is a /pol/tard falseflagger
a somewhat popular monhun streamer
I almost tried it last night but then I remembered all the times I tried it in beta and how it never improved at all and went to hunt AT Nergi instead.
Just like Albion. I think there is still a queue to get in. Are there really that many poor people with literally nothing else to play that they wait in line for a game?
>Oh this shit went F2P
Shit was always F2P, retard.
>literally Zinogre
I got sickles from some fire dog thing just now.
Seems like these chain blades are the only unique weapons in the game besides what appears to be two shotguns that I haven't unlocked yet.
They make you teleport dash instead of roll and you can swing them from far away at the cost of stamina.
They also let you hook things and move towards them.
Why do shit devs always fall for the i-frames roll meme when they make action games? There's more to combat depth than just slapping i-frames on your rolls and calling it a day.
I tried to cancel this matchmaking 5 minutes ago and it won't let me out.
I might have to stop here since I can't hunt anything and logging out means another hour long queue.
Don't forget to set your gender preference user.
Because it's the only way faggots understand the concept now, thanks to Dark Souls. DMC5 got a bunch of shit from retards for not having a dodge button and having iframes on jump instead.
>They make you teleport dash instead of roll and you can swing them from far away at the cost of stamina
That's all chain blades. I remember this shit from beta. You do know about the ranged flurry style attack right?
Monster hunter has really tight i-frames and nioh has very few if any so playing something where you just dash into the monster while smacking it like a mong is the most embarrassing thing I can imagine when you try to make one of those games.
I just started this shit so I have no idea what's going on I just know this all feels jank as fuck.
They look like Greater Value Fortniteâ„¢ characters...but hey this is Epic so that's probably on purpose
stop being a pleb and go play monhun
Man, the artstyle is so ugly. Toukiden is actually a pretty competent MH clone.
I don't really get why they didn't just go full ham on copying monhun. Even the newer monsters in Dauntless barely scratched the idea of positioning which monhun focuses on more.
This is the game that's supposed to kill MHW?
the monster hunter of fortnite games
>already F2P game went F2P
Are you fucking retarded?
This, I played it for free on PC. When it did stop being f2p?
why the fuck would you play this when Toudiken, God Eater and fucking Monster Hunter are all on PC now
I liked it when I was waiting for World on pc but once world came out I never touched it again.
godeater was the only clone I liked.
>Spoilers
Okay i was the user who said it looked like shit originally explain to me how it might be competent since i'm open to giving most games a shot
>Greater Valueâ„¢ Zinogre.
Casuals? People with no talent or self respect? People of lesser bloodlines
It was never meant to compete with Monster Hunter, the original idea was to be the only PC Monster Hunter like game, which fell through the second World was announced and was kicked when it was down multiple times by World's promotional material and open betas "coincidentally" being on the same days as ever major Pointless update. It was pretty fucking funny, now it's just kind of sad seeing how they've stuck it out despite being absofuckinglutely doomed.
I played it to laugh at it.
It's great for that.
I had to look it up, but I believe it's m1, m1, m1, m2 (I think you can hold that last one) Or whatever that is on controller
youtube.com
youtube.com
The only thing gnasher and zinogre share is the color blue
THEN WHY THE FUCK DID THEY RELEASE IT IF THEY DIDNT HAVE THE ROOM FOR A HUGE INFLUX OF PEOPLE
This but to add to it, the beaver has like three attacks and they're all worthless and boring
Isn't this Epic? Haven't they mastered online shit already? They've managed to get Fortnite crossplay to work fine, so what's up with this?
Really gets your noggin joggin eh?
Yep so many monsters in this game need a massive rework or just many moves added.
Basic mechanics-wise it's a literal clone of MH, I forgot if MH4 did combat arts first or Toukiden did. Large monster variety is rather lacking, NPC AI is so good they'll end up carrying you most of the time if you're a shitter and top tier waifu.
You sure showed them.
>Just went f2p
>Just
You a special kinda retarded there boy
Not really, Dauntless character models are from 2 years before Epic bought them
Pretty sure their original plan was a pc monhun-like and mhw got announced a week or two after theirs. Crapcom did the right thing for once.
>MH4
>arts
You're thinking of Generations, which came after 4U
I dont get it. Is it supposed to be a tranny? One of those tranny weight lifters that break all the woman's weight lifting records, perhaps?.
>charge attack
>sweeping/frontal attack
>aoe attack
There. I just laid out 80% of the monsters in this game.
I think they were going for a buff looking female blacksmith but they fucked up everything
Thats because it's basically a tutorial monster. There are pallette swapped beavers with more attacks as you progress. But that just leads back to what I bitched about earlier, which was pallette swapped monsters.
what in the flying fuck
>you can set the gender of a character
holy fuck SJWs are gonna consume the industry now
The idea behind was getting in the PC market because PC had no MH clones already(of course they don't even know what God Eater and Toukiden are btw) and then literally 1 week after they proudly announced Dauntless Capcom came and :"LMAO MHW ON PC TOO *dabs*"
I'm playing this and I can confirm that all 3 monsters so far are just this.
Is the game any good? Is it on PC? I am looking for a new game to play
>that first video
those i-frames look really generous with the tail going through him at the end of his roll
No the one in the video is a high level monster.
so, they have to basically fix the whole game?
>literally guaranteeing your game can never be successful cause it would destroy your spaghetti code
hahahahahaha
Imagine being in Dauntless queue right now
It is on PC and I guess if you don't mind tons of jank you could have fun just mashing buttons to kill big retarded monsters for a bit.
>those i-frames look really generous
That's because they are. The game has an over-reliance on i-frames because the Dauntless devs couldn't be bothered to actually implement a combat system that has depth.
this happens with literally every game
I can tell you a possible reason
Currently MHW on PC is another drought, nothing new to do beside casual picking up on monsters bullying for fun and crown farming until Arch Niggergante comes out next month and then again at all until Iceborne, hoping that on PC it won't be delayed because otherwise it will be literally 6+ months of no content for the PC
Dauntless is banking on Capcom delayed schedules for PC to get people in who wants a monhun fix but have nothing to do anymore on MHW
Is just a shitty MH clone nearly all the other MH clones are leagues better.
I...it GENUINELY pisses me off that there's no real unified motif/aesthetic to this game there's guys running around with sci fi armor along side guys with regular atmoe alongside literal Fortnite characters
N-no it's not even popular only games on Steam is allowed to be successful!
Does this game have weakpoints like monhun too?
I actually like the game.
I also enjoy Monster Hunter, they aren't competing and both are fun to play.
The endgame is far harder than MHW's btw.
because it's a low effort
>muh timeless stylistic art
shill
cool game
yes
Wasn't this game already free to play?
I remember playing it for free.
I have never ever played a single monster hunter ripoff that makes me go "well damn, goodbye monhun". This one is no different.
I haven't even played it since the beta a while ago, I have nothing to gain by shilling it, all I'm saying is that liking one game doesn't mean you can't like another, pretty sure most people in here aren't even going to bother trying it anyway.
>Muh shill Boogeyman
The game is perfectly fine as a f2p game. I enjoyed what time I spent with it. But fuck em for taking Epics gibs.
>The endgame is far harder than MHW's btw.
It's definitely not mate.
Not to mention none of the monsters even feel like "end-game" monsters.
>The endgame is far harder than MHW's btw.
Rezakiri and shrowd are two of three well designed monsters in the entire game their fights require you to turn your brain on.
But i disagree with your post
I said it went free because I recall hearing about it during closed beta where it was a buy-in.
correct, it was a buy in before this
retard
MHW's endgame is piss easy. Get back to me when you've soloed Hypers, Apex, and 140s.
Well it has F2P model. I have a sneaking suspicion it's targeting the same pre-teens as Fortnite, and the same mummy's credit card for the same harmless cosmetics.
Why do all f2p western games have this tasteless artstyle? They all look the same, theres literally no difference between fortnight, paladins and overwatch.
your shrowd solo proofs?
Attempts to be Pixar/DreamWorks, I guess because they're popular.
Made me laugh. I'd show my gear but i'm not installing the epic launcher
What is a shrowd? Some Dauntless shit? I'm never touching that pile.
>well designed
>Rezakiri
>muh bullet hell
I swear it's like the devs just gave up on how to design enemies and just made some monsters shit out lights.
it's just things to nitpick from it. surprising no one else remembers it was always f2p
At least I can pet the dogs.
Probably from researching BOTW developers saying that they chose the style because Windwaker has aged better due to opting for unrealistic cell shaded look rather than realism. Everything Epic related is derivative, after all. Fortnite has long had skins that look uncannily like MH armors etc. They take the Virgil Abloh approach.
>surprising no one else remembers it was always f2p
That would require them remembering that it even existed in the first place.
relatively easy to model
low poly, so they don't have to optimize for performance
can't get criticized because "art"
I HATE the run animations. If there's one thing that separates Monster Hunter from the pretenders it's animations and the feel that they create.
>Huge influx of users
>None of them can play
>Game fucking dies because only 1000 people can play at any given time for a free to play game
What were they theen keen
>so many people servers literally can't handle it
>nu-Yea Forums thinks this a bad thing
You people are morons.
It's still much better than a lot of the other monsters
you think that is bad, try picking the hammer and watch the running animation.
You're not wrong but the Riftstalker is still the best one. It's literally the only monster where they actually took advantage of their pseudo scifi setting properly.
Saw some guy use the hammer throw/spin shit and I laughed for the rest of the hunt.
How are the animations this bad?!
IT'S MA'AM!!!!
Hey guys, world vet here. Is the camera less shit in portable third than freedom unite?
I get the draw F2P MH. I get it but this fucking game is so bare bones it's insulting.
ever since closed beta the characters have ran around like they had a brick of shit in their pants
Just adjust the camera when in the middle of an animation you retard, do you even play action games?
No. It's basically identical.
I'd bet money that's not what he's talking about.
>that face
>no abs
This is going to be an oof from me chief
was toukiden 2 comfy...
So does it count as a 1H or 2H sword.
Is this the worst launch since Archeage's (Fresh Start)?
> ":)"
and dropped
Fortnite characters look fine; even without the context of time those characters look fine. Dauntless characters look like fucking shit and worse, they have no goddamn personality to off-set how fucking awful they look unlike a Genndy Tartakovsky cartoon.
You're allowed to take the low poly, easy to model route if your output is Fortnite characters, and the criteria for that is that is simply that they're fuckable. Dauntless just has absolutely zero redeeming features.
i played this game yesterday and it's fucking dogshit
>tfw actually enjoyed this game but can't stand the style of the characters so I stopped playing
> Paltry amount of weapons
> subpar monster roster
> boomer aesthetics
> Boring as fuck armors
> EPIC exclusve
I'll stick with the better game
not disagreeing
as i said, you can't criticize them, it's "art" and you just don't know it
plus you're literally toxic if you don't "appreciate their hard work"
it also runs worse than fortnite

I can't believe nobody has posted this. It was literally the first thing I saw back in the beta.

>long ugly faces
>a bazillion face sliders but who cares everyone will wear helmets, be the same height, be the same weight and wear the same armor
lmao
Yeah, but now they're getting paid.
No way, you made that shit up.
Wasn't there when I played it and I'm dubious as to whether it exists now. Pixels and time.
He's trying to derail the thread with /pol/ garbage.
That's literally just how you choose the gender of your character. If you want a girl you choose "feminine" if you want a boy you choose "masculine". Thats literally all it is.
Cartoon style is a guaranteed success based on wow and fortnite. They're obviously going for that angle.
Jesus christ, how fucking suspicious are you guys? I know their choice of font and typesetting are awful, but I swear it's real.
Someone running the current build, screencap it. It was hilarious because it was under "Gameplay" options.
I swear Epic's choice of exclusives is eternally baffling. It's like either the most mediocre shit out there or suddenly Borderlands and Exodus. No middle ground whatsoever.
How they fucking choose which games they want as exclusives? Just throw e-mails everywhere and hope someone bites?
nah it's not there anymore
although they still used feminine/masculine for body types instead of male/female and you can pick any kind of face/head to go with
>Jesus christ, how fucking suspicious are you guys?
We're on Yea Forums, motherfucker. You should be suspicious of pretty much everything.
boards.fireden.net
Here's an archived thread from back during beta with another user mentioning it.
This is the kind of high effort shitposting we need
>This game is made by some of the people who made Dawngate
Holy fuck I'm actually glad that game died so I can see just how terrible the devs actually are.
definitely misspelt zoomer
I wonder how big the paypacket was. What we thinking? Three figures?
Finally I can snap my Gunpla and paint it in one stroke
Why can't the west allow nice CC?
Because attractive women don't exist and IF YOU THINK THEY DO YOURE A NAZI
FUCK DRUMPF AND WHYPIPO!11``1`11``1
based
capcom sure as fuck doesn't have nice CC either
>WAAAAAAAHHH UGLY WOMEN
lmao you cucks did you all forget MHW also has unattractive women and they did away with the sexy armor?
>LOL I AM CUHRAYZEE
does this shit actually pass for humor in alt-right circle
because it's literally Fortnite + MH
the Fortnite comparison isn't even a meme or an insult, it's exactly wat the devs had intended, from the artstyle to the skins
Did they get rid of the ancestry slider from the closed beta?
holy shit that's pretty bad. fuck SJWS into the burning pits of fire unironically.
I just quit out and I saw 3 xbox players and 2 ps4 players so yes.
There's no humor in the intentionally realized decay of a once-bright Republic by degenerate, hedonistic self-worshipping filth.
Only the handler is ugly and has potato face, the Huntress can be attractive.
This'll pass fast. Most of these people are ruski's, BR's and pinois anyway. They always horde f2p shit the first week.
>now
MHW can get modded.
What now Dauntless shill?
is this shit actually Made BY epic?
Look at all those rock-smashing cheekbones.
summer festival
Halloween handler is fucking hot
>fail at buying real game
>get sub-par dead on arrival knock off instead
tencent shills on suicide watch
epic doesn't make anything
they bought dauntless, probably because capcom told them to fuck off
No, it's Phoenix Labs which is former Riot devs with some others from other companies like Bioware and Blizzard. This is their first game and it shows.
In a year this shit will be fucking dead. Mark my words.
nah, they won't make enough content to stay alive
but hey at least they're anti-crunch and that's a good thingâ„¢
>epic
These faces are so ugly. I'd much prefer my 240p smirking 3DS hunter face.
I mean, the bar is so fucking low for Dauntless that even the worst Frontier monster designs are head and shoulders above everything it has to offer.
Mirin' those delts.
Would depend on channel size I'm sure, gaijinhunter probably got a few hundred, maybe just shy of a thousand
that's a stretch
Does tranny Carrot top do prop comedy with dilators?
Okay, maybe the owlbear is alright. But that's more of an exception.

10/10
it launched on console yesterday
game has been in various states of beta on pc for a year
holy fuck let me skip these long, gay cutscenes
where all da new players tho, servers are congested? and I only got one new guy, ramsgate had like 3 people in it kek. Open Beta release was way more full, like 20 people in ramsgate I could see around the crafting area.
>you character will mostly be covered head to toe in heavy armor
>game is about killing monsters
>"uhhhhhhhhhh why are dis characters so uglee??? |:~0 "
Back to your cage, niggers.
Hard pass.
Isn't it what one would call "a good problem to have"? A bad one would be not having ANY players, instead of too many.
>sword clips entire body
>that fucking walk
>slow as fuck
>feels unresponsive as fuck
yeah probably going to be no from me, ill play a bit more since im waiting for jump force maintenance to finish
Except those who can get in have long queue times with no players.
>Adding :)
>Not :3
Yea, I feel you. They clearly have no idea.
>shits on dauntless
>plays jump force
It's like hating water but drinking cheap juice.
Do you see this? This is how I know this game is shit without ever even having heard of it.
servers are shit
3 hour wait queue
no one got time for that
Being racist on the internet isn't the most rad edgy teenager behavior? I love it.
epic is well aware of that issue aswell
Based and t__nny-killing red-pilled
faggot
There are no fucking players I wish there was fucking players, game is a ghosttown. This is the only time I've ever seen a game launch with congested servers have 0 actual players in-game, holy hell
Ummm they're all on console sweetie.
>complaining about how a man's face look
>"faggot"
Nice projection.
It has crossplay (which is cool), got matched with an xbone guy for a hunt. Literally only saw 2 guys in town after waiting for like 2 hours to get in the game.
>i-AHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA
jezus christ you fucking five year old yeah the game's shit but could you be any more pathetic
>support a creator with your in game purchases
>theres a list of approve creators
what the hell
yeah jump force is bad. that doesnt stop dauntless from being bad.
yeah im seeing people on ps4 but isnt this crossplatform? im seeing what look likes little pcs next to some people's name.
This shit plagiarize MH like a baby sucks the milk out of a breast, I get that there's room for that genre but have some ideas of your own ffs.
At least it's free
The gameplay is terrible. It’s like God Eater but without the fun abilities and no fucking weight whatsoever to any attacks
>isn't ppsspp some kind of magic that can be run on anything?
yeah it unironically runs better on intel integrated graphics than laptop GPUs.
I run it no slowdowns on pretty much everything on a fucking 1.6ghz ultrabook
Do companies outsource people to shill their products? Are there businesses that specialize specifically in infiltrating websites like Yea Forums and shilling shit all day long?
I got drunk an laughed at how bad this game is for a couple hours before I shut it off.
Is that more or less pathetic in your eyes oh lord of dignity?
user, my sides can only handle so much
no one gives a shit about this dumb site
marketers hit up reddit
oh wait, Yea Forums IS reddit
Why are there so many MH-cucks in this thread? You don't even need to compare both games because Dauntless is clearly on a lower production level, but it's fun in its own way. Can't you autistic fanboys be happy that the genre is spreading so there's more influences for future monster-hunting games?
less
I think gearbox and epic got "caught" doing exactly that several years back.
and by caught I recall someone posting paystubs for "online forum posts" from those companies
You can still change your gender identity whenever you want tho so thats a big win.
>Every character's head is shaped like a Somalian
It's fun in a dog shit way. Mcfucking kill yourself, Chang
Imagine trashing on Dauntless and not even getting G-rank on MH, because that's you.
My potato pc from 2006 runs it perfectly fine
Is there a way to play portable third online without having to join that fucking discord, im really not interested in a circlejerk and i dont want to use discord for anything but talking to a handful of friends in my private channel
This is why you have no friends.
Imagine sucking cocks in the sewer, cause that's you.
>why are there so many MH players in this game which is clearly a shtity knockoff of MH featuring microtransactions and shitty animations.
hmmmm
it's like fortnite raped monster hunter in a dark alley and this is the unholy offspring
I'd rather shit like Toukiden and Godeater pop up than this trash.
You can just run a hamachi server since you don't want a semi living discord full of people to possibly play with.
>microtransactions
It's a free to play game, fucking nigger. And you're not competing against other players.
Imagine dying a virgin...
>anime garbage
yeah no thanks
Bitch I just fucking played this floaty ass i-frame fuckfest for 3 hours and I've played shit tons of MH.
It was absolute trash and any game in the genre is better than Dauntless.
Cant say i blame him but its a shame. You can just tell hes lying through his fucking teeth about the game. Even the youtube commenters who im not even sure arent slightly advanced ape men realize the games shit
Post your G rank, otherwise yours is just a scrub opinion.
Why
>It's a free to play game, fucking nigger. And you're not competing against other players.
literally dont care all microtransactions are bad and free to play games suck ass, shouldve made the game worth spending 60 on
I dont think being able to set the gender or whatever is that bad, A bit pointless but harmless. If the characters talk like tumblrites thats when theres a problem
>this absolute ignorant Yea Forums parrot opinion
You're not even worth my time, kid.
The only well-made 'MH clone' is Soul Sacrifice Delta.
>try dauntless
>weapons have no weight to their swings whatsoever
>can stagger with

>no lore

Game is shit, was shit and will always be shit. Emulate monster hunter games instead or get world.
MAKE MHW CROSS PLATFORM ALREADY I WANT TO IMPORT MY PS4 CHARACTER
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
everyone playing right now played during the beta, im seeing zero people with the same armor/weapon as me
>just eat this shit-covered steak mate, it's free
>nono you're just parrotting now
nah fag most of Yea Forums is so far gone it defends microtransactions like you do and if all of you werent such retards we'd still have games where cosmetics and dyes are unlockables instead of having to buy the for 10% of the total game value
why would you want to play with a bunch of pc shitters?
The handguns are the only cool looking weapons in this game
>food analogy
This.
/thread
>t. got rekt
Git gud, faggot.
Man all the weapons in this game are so shit.
>playtime 200h
>HR 87
You got stuck in Niggergante or something? I am almost 200 hours of playtime and I am HR 135
>lmao just live in this run-down apartment mate with no water or electricity, it's free
At the very least the chain blades are ripping off god of war and not monster hunter.
That means something right?
Not baiting me, greasy fingers.
HOLY
SIGMAR
BLESS
THIS
RAVAGED
BODY
Not int he slightest. because Chain blades are shit tier weapons that might as well be Dual Blades.
I already beat all the hunts. I remember getting stuck on ex behemoth then that's where I stopped. I'm waiting for the expansion hopefully it's good
True.
Is MH this fucking slow? Taking a swing with a weapon takes two years and you're locked in place until you're done.
god I love you so much sucy youre so weird
>dude just watch this three hour movie done by some literal who college kids, it's free
>he doesn't keep his helmet of even if it leads to worse stats
I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
This thread = shit
OP = massive faggot
More like shit-covered sweets. Kids are the target remember
>we don't want to invest in new servers because our player count will drop back down in a week
Please don't post my wife why making such shitty posts.
Will Epic ever catch a break?
ITT: people shit on a game they watched on twitch for 5 minutes because they don't want to use epic launcher to try it themselves.
Make better posts yourself nerd.
I stopped playing that game in the tutorial because the movement felt so shitty.
I tried this last year you cuck.
im playing it right now on the ps4, it's pretty bad.
Surely it can't be much worse than sheathed movement in 1st/2nd gen MH.
>shit server structure
>can't even scale to handle the small playerbase trying to play
Can't believe I'm replying to this shit.
I wonder what Suzy's farts taste like
Haven't played first 2 gens so I would know.
OP here.
I played this shit for several hours.
It's pretty bad and is on point with his description of the game.
winnie the pooh
>Make a game for two years only to get absolutely annihilated by a bunch of nips bothering to make a PC port
I'd be pretty fucking sad desu.
>would
meant wouldn't
Dauntless is shit. Who is the best little witch and why is it /ourgirl/ Akko?
You didn't even get past the first monsters. It's really ironic you tards say the game is for kids while you can can't even beat it, kek.
In short the turning movement when sheathed was more stiff than moving around with a weapon unsheathed, whether you were running or walking. A good example would be rotating around in a circle. At least the part that matters more for fighting isn't as rough, but otherwise it's noticeable.
Probably digressed a bit, but yeah I haven't touched SSD in a good while and I'll probably have to play around a bit to see what you might mean. Still have some good memories of it.
>/ourgirl/
>not the tsuntsun
baka
>The game isn't bad you just didn't play enough of a game that looks and feels like shit to get to the good parts!
Sorry bro, in some games you can't import beta test characters to the real game
Akko is ourgirl because she is a low IQ retard.
We all got it you're just a scrub with a die-hard hate for Epic, no harm done.
What are some actual good hunting games that aren't Monster Hunter?
What so he could see the fucking garbage "le epic bullet hell" monsters and elemental variations of an already small roster of enemies?
Freedom Wars
Just like MHW then?
Toukiden 2 and God Eater
Shadow of the Colossus.
>anime shit
Nah, I'll pass.
That and the epic store was the reason I uninstalled it.
Sucy was barely fucking in her own show
Listen faggot either you go anime or you play shit like dauntelss.
Anyone else experienced a bug where you get brought back to the beginning of the game after a hunt? The intro cutscene plays and all your quests get erased. Although you can fix it by restarting the game I'd rather wait for the game to get more stable and not have scary bugs like these or better yet, play a better game.
>companies literally tax their debt because losing money means you're growing faster than you can raise funds
thank you debt-based monetary system!
#buybitcoin
>tfw you break free from the Yea Forums negativity hivemind and just enjoy games like a normal person
feels good man, dauntless is pretty fun, fucking up monsters with the hammer and axe is satisfying.
Toukiden isn't that bad, but God Hand is absolute garbage.
Souls Sacrifice
I'd rather stick with Dauntless then. God Eater is unbearable.
>God Hand is absolute garbage.
Excuse you.
Not him but yike. Stay ignorant and eat up literal dogshit then lol
>over 400 replies
This game must be good if Yea Forums is that butthurt about it. Which weapon is the best to start with?
>put server selection
>remove it afterwards
sword, it's easy to use and strong
axe if you want something slower
Dauntless and God Eater are the same gameplay wise, but at least Dauntless doesn't have a fucking cringey story and characters. No grown man could unironically like that shit.
Yes yes now enjoy your fortnite hunter with a gender slider option
Makes sense desu
Why are you retards picking this game up now that it went to Epic Games Store?
This shit already died once when they announced moving to Epic, it'll just die again.
PS: It was F2P way before the transition to EGS.
not an argument
you either go anime raise a daughter sim, *tap tap tap tap tap tap* YOOOOOOOOOOO hunter, anime NBC'S locked up, dauntless, or the Book of Lamentations featuring some mages and sad ass backstories for even the monsters
Thanks I will, as an adult I can overlook these progressive shitty ellements that won't affect my gameplay at all, without going rampant on autistic screeching.
CHILL user
why the fuck do i get the same amount of materials from a private hunt and a public hunt
god of war swords, light light light hold heavy dodge when needed and repeat, melts everything.
Meh. Call me again a year from now when they've actually added content for this shit if it's still alive.
And I mean content that's actually good.
she cute desu
Only racists/nazis like pretty women if the west is to be belived
>Pied Piper's story
Didn't expect that one to hit so hard

So a Najarala, got it
>be user
>paid by epic to shill their latest purchase
>see a post saying the game is braindead easy
>surely they must be bad at the game!
It's fucking impossible to be bad at this game. You can autorevive with no fucking consequences if you don't get picked up by a teammate while the monster is fellating itself. You're as shit as the game you're trying to make us play, fuck off or use a tripcode so I can filter you.
The uninstall wizard
meanwhile MHW is getting the same thing, lmao
>but at least Dauntless doesn't have a fucking cringey story
Sure, there can't be a bad story if there is none to begin with.
What MHW is getting will have at least a 5 minute cooldown or be used only once per mission for bad players and LS mains who can't foresight slash when their evasion mantle runs out. You're advertising a childrens game before summer is even here user.
Git gud, shitter. If the game is so easy and you can't beat it, you're beyond bad. Crying here won't make any difference.
>shills are retarded in a epic thread
I'll type with big easy words so you'll understand.
GAME EASY
GAME BAD
LEVEL INT
Then why can't you beat it if it's so easy? Lmao
>went F2P
It always was F2P.
Alright, you win. Enjoy your queue simulator user. Maybe it will come with the shopping cart function for the launcher.
Freedom Wars, beating the final boss gives you a fedora and trenchcoat
I "Can't beat it" because the game has at minimum 5 minute queues for quests even if you try to play them alone and these hunts take sub 4 minutes if you have any idea what you're doing.
I feel like I'm wasting my time waiting around for completely braindead monsters.
>now
Did you miss how hard he shilled World?
Weren't servers already fucked back when it was in open beta?
Why do these PR people type like this? They sound really smug and not apologetic to people that actually downloaded their shit game.
>assumptions
MHW is already filled with casual shit like mantles, restocking and fast travel, if you lose a hunt in that game you may be brain damaged, not to mention the new grapple shit for even more casualization.
Also nobody here is advertising or trying to make you play the game, if you don't like it cool, fuck off then, go make a monster hunter thread.
>difficulty is what makes a game good
if you're going to tell me mhw is good after saying that you can just leave now
wait are u telling me this game wasnt f2p? but i played it and i dont remember paying
Why does a single player game need servers just to play
>tfw after shilling world so hard it turns out he doesn't even like it much
World's mediocrity genuinely might have broken his spirit.
I've played Dauntless on the beta, game gets pretty good at later stages. Just find funny you shitheads saying the game is easy when you haven't got nowhere near the challenging part of the game. If you wanna say the game is bad, at least say what's really bad, like the absurd amount of grinding to get full armor sets and other shit.
The game is also available to play for free on the PS4, Xi. The fuck are you on about.
Do you blame Valve too if servers for pubg are not working? Do you all have brain cancer or something?
Kek, yeah that shits pretty funny. I thought from the get go that he didn't seem as into it as he said he was.
Man I played this shit back in the beta, Tryed to link my account to try it again and it failed.
Its really just a Nu-monster hunter, but its one that can't even save data or keep servers up.
>restocking
you mean the same exact thing as loading a saved loadout in the older games but you press one button?
I get that you're trying to say MHW is pretty casual and I agree but that's quite a reach.
Devs fell too hard for the i-frame roll meme.
I'm pretty sure he means that you can now restock during missions.
You can straight up fuck off back to a camp to refill your items in the middle of a hunt, and since you can fast travel you can basically cheese the whole game even if you're complete shit at it.
>450 replies
>164 IPs
Nice shill thread here.
He probably means that you can use the item box while in a hunt, which you know that's what's he's implying but you're acting retarded to belittle him
>shill thread
>90% of the thread is people shitting on the game without even playing it
i guess
Oh shit yeah I'm not that stupid or bad at the game so that didn't even register at first.
did you even read the thread?
I mean, console shitposting aside, World is very very different for better or worse. I hate the game but I'm sure lots of people like it going by the sales.
It's unironically soulless.
>poor man's MHW
>Epic Exclusive
Played the closed beta, it's not a bad game, but it's shallow as a puddle.
If you play it for 3 hours, you already experienced everything the game has to offer
>epic shill this braindead and lazy to even read the thread
Fuck Xi. Fuck tianenmen square. Fuck epic. Fuck huawei. Fuck you.
Where are my fucking double notes capcom?
I want to be rewarded for playing songs on the monster's head and you give me this song queue sit around and jerk myself off in the corner shit?
if you played it for 3 hours you experienced absolutely nothing
Buying a game doesn't necessarily mean you liked it tho. But yeah, it was well received, sadly. Just means the next game will be even lazier and even more casualized.
>Gender identity
>Not a slider
How problematic.
The only point you're making is that you are slow user.
bro all the endgame monsters were literally weekly timegated in beta, it's impossible to have experienced anything in dauntless in 1 week, letalone 3 hours.
in 3 hours you probably hadn't even unlocked the other weapons
By other weapons do you mean the dual guns?
Which is one weapon.
Currently you only have to fight the first 4 monsters for those.
Thats a pretty good ratio you fucking retard.
You used to have to unlock the spear and axe via daily/weekly exp
>there are actual Dauntless shills
Based. Never underestimate the power of money.
Then I guess they fucked you over, thanks for beta testing!
(that's really mean sounding I'm sorry)
Yes user, all 6 billion EGS users are trying to log in.
>2 hours into the game
>fight an owl bear, like 4th monster in the game
>next monster is white owl bear
>same fight but with ice
>it counts as a new monster
Is the roster going to be THAT shitty?
Why everyone is comaring this game to monhun?
I played it and it has nothing in common with MH and I don't mean quality and content wise.
Calling this a poor mans Mh is the same as calling NFS a poor mans mario kart.
This game is a Dark Souls with Fortnite visuals: it plays the same, it has a flask, huge emphasis on dodge rolls etc.
I don't know why Yea Forums is keep telling me it's a bad MH clone.
All signs point to yes.
I couldn't be bothered waiting 10+ minutes to fight another monster to go any farther than where you're at tho.
>whys everyone comparing a monster hunting game to monster hunter?
>no aerials attacks
I know for sure hammer have one.
the only thing it has in common with dark souls is an emphasis on iframe dodging
they re-use the models occasionally but later on the fights are distinctively different even if they're the same type, unlike monster hunter where every brute may as well be the same thing
you are VERY stupid
They literally called their own game a monster hunting game inspired by Monster Hunter.
Quests focus on hunting a single large monster using third person action melee/ranged combat where you have to use i-frames to dodge attacks the monster throws out until you eventually fell the beast.
"How is this anything like monster hunter?"
>not hunting solo
Tim Sweeney's millions at work
The setting is the same but the gameplay isn't you fucking mongoloids.
There are only two good things about this piece of shit.
The hammer.
The teleporting dog
Anyone remember that double fine hunting game? That is probably the worst monster hunting game I've seen. I don't know if it actually even released.
God damn
If you hit skip matchmaking it usually does the same thing where it just stalls for minutes on end and only lets you hunt when it feels like it.
Why doesn't this game have fucking blocking gear?
you can select private hunt
Literally describe the gameplay loop in it's most direct and basic form.
>"That's not gameplay that's the setting"
Because they gave you a full second or two of i-frames on the dodge and called it a day.
What do you mean different styles of play involve different defensive methods to keep the gameplay variot healthy?
>Literally describe the gameplay loop in it's most direct and basic form.
I can describe witcher as a monhun with the same attitude.
The description you made was so retarded you could as well apply it to games completely different from monster hunter.
FUCK EPIC GAMES GAMES
their launcher's games never work on my computer.. i tried dauntless,fortnite and that mages battle royale game and all of them has the same issue. they don't run normally and i have to keep tabbing out/in the game to see changes on screen
shield fags should neck themselves.
>download game to play it
>the next day they shut it down and say i'll have to wait a week and get it on EGS cancer platform
why couldn't they just keep their launcher too? i honestly wanted to try it, but i am not putting up with EGS bullshit.
i played it for a few hours and i literally got only about 10% more fps than MH:W with a gtx 10606GB
EGS exclusivity is a requirement to be hosted on their platform.
Is there an actual "monster hunter" game where you and your buddies man different stations to plan and systematically bring down a behemoth?
>it doesn't work on my fcuked up system therefore it's the developers' fault
because of faggots like you an actually good game has died.
Oh I'm sorry should I have said that you use the monster parts to make armor and weapons exactly like MH too?
Or that you break off parts and cut tails exactly like monster hunter?
Or that the developers themselves have directly stated they were inspired to make a monster hunting game like monster hunter?
Because if those things aren't obvious enough and similar enough for you to see then I don't know what to tell you.
>game has 0 players
>HAHAHAHAHA BTFO!
>game has a lot of players
>HAHAHAHAHA BTFO!
amazing. Yea Forums is truly a unique place
it's epic games' launcher fault.
But the game has 0 players because nobody can play it.
>game is crowdfunded (no publisher money involved) which was the dream of the Kickstarter Revolution
>developer sells out to a fucking LAUNCHER CLIENT run by Chinks because the chinese are willing to throw them a kickback for exclusivity
you start to realize publishers are correct in their assessment all developers are lazy moneygrubby scum
Yeah it's called lost planet 2.
I'm not joking.
There are are a few fights like that in Monster Hunter. Same with Lost Planet.
>Dauntless was also influenced by Dark Souls and World of Warcraft. Houston credits Dark Souls specifically for helping to prove out that there is a market for "hardcore action games" focused on player versus environment encounters, which allowed them to take a safe risk on their approach to Dauntless.
>Houston credits Dark Souls specifically for helping to prove out that there is a market for "hardcore action games" focused on player versus environment encounters
The fuck am I reading?
But that does not disprove that at the end of the day this is a game very similar to monster hunter and it is the most like MH rather than those other two things meaning comparing it to MH is not in fact wrong.
Which was the initial argument being had.
Anything even more mundane where your persons aren't super strong sci-fi/fantasy warriors? Something akin to say Moby Dick or King Kong in presentation.
>people are unironically playing this game
I can't really think of anything quite like what you're describing and that's actually a pretty decent premise for a game.
Played the beta way back when out of curiosity. It looks like they improved jackshit.
Yeah it's something that was always in the back of my head ever since I first played that mega flop Evolve. I can imagine like say one stage would be an aerial level across a massive valley where all of your ride airships with a playstyle akin to Guns of Icarus. It'd require tons of coordination from everybody to even set-up traps, simultaneous assaults, and even one dude distracting the monster alone.
And beyond that you can expand the mechanics to the sea or land or in an urban area etc.
