Pretty fun game if you don't mind the Rock-Paper-Scissors combat, Jap version has more postgame content than US one, There's a partial translation for the JP one.

I'm to fucking hype, I have 6 day's off and I don't even know what video game to play cus everything seems dull compared to ice born

Any other double dippers have 0 hype for PS4 Iceborne? After playing the PC version I just can't force my self to suffer through that God awful performance again.

Look at that bingshit

My favorite monster is The Handler!

Maybe if she actually looked like that ingame

I'm fine with it cause I got used to it. All MH games till World was sub 30 FPS so its not really jarring to me. Once I'm done with PS4 Iceborne, I'll play on PC when its thriving during release. Will pick blademaster (GL) for PS4, LBG/HBG for PC. Win-win

Nah, I have a Pro and even with the fluctuating framerate it’s more than serviceable. If I can enjoy the Wii U port of 3U I can handle anything.

You mean she doesnt?

What the fuck she looks good

Nope, and no amount of cherrypicked trailer footage will change that

The Handler was never ugly. She just had some less than flattering appearances under very poor lighting such as when you eat during a quest. At this point it’s just a tired meme.

I don't believe you

5ch and futaba have been asking for a while now if the model was altered in Iceborne.

What's that one monster you always hunt to practice with?

Attached: 1566001521909.png (500x505, 237K)

OK

I think them model is the is the same but certain lighting an angles make her look better

Nargacuga in previous games, Odogaron in World.

Handler looks much prettier in IB for sure

IB fixed their graphics settings so it looks a lot more vibrant and colorful. Dunno how it took them a year to fix this

Wait really? Got any comparison pics?

Do we have any word if base ps4 performance is improved? I've been playing locked 60 on PC and don't know how painful it will be to come back

Because Capcom is mindblowingly incompetent and you've just been blind to that fact for some reason?

The Iceborne model is the same but with better lighting

Handler was always pretty. Her summer outfit proves that. But she had ugly clothes, her hair in a bun, and poor lighting in some cut scenes.

I'm honestly confused how Handler was released in an ugly state. I mean this is the shit you have to see on a daily basis and they released it like that? It's not like Capcom is inexperienced with the engine either. They released RE6, a good looking game on the same engine.

As has been said already, it has a lot more to do with the lighting than whether she was ugly or not. She has a fine model, the lighting in the base game was just really bad in some choice spots, and unfortunately a lot of them feature up close shots of the Handler so she ends up getting the shit end of that stick.

Both. I actually think the 3DS version ran a little better but I don’t think a proper test was done on it like DF did for 4U. The Wii U version was rushed and it shows. FPS hangs in the low to mid 40s but it has the worst frame pacing I’ve ever seen in a game.

They didn’t say there wouldn’t be any other monsters from those games added just that Glavenus was added to represent them. They won’t be in at launch but I think Valstrax for example has a decent chance at being DLC.

>worldfetti

Hype already? This shit releases in january.

Real talk, why do people act like 4 months is a horrible wait. Its not like you dont a have a massive backlog of games to play in the meantime.

I wish it would come sooner, but have some patientce man.

Handler has cooked me hundreds of meals, filled out thousands of forms and paperwork for me, and also drained my balls dozens of times in her summer outfit.

She deserves lots of credit, even more than she gets.

When Sony money ran out.

It's more criminal that they didn't bring back Blangonga or Gigginox.
OR FUCKING ZAMTRIOS. Capcom already had a fantastic ice shark monster and they fart it away with ANOTHER lavasioth reskin.

Worldbabs are better than 4babs.
Worldbabs don't act superior, unlike 4babs who got into the series late and act like "hardcore veterans"

They’re pretty likely for MH6, they use a unique skeleton but it’s a pretty simple one, essentially just a different configuration of a quadruped like Fanged Wyverns and not something exceedingly different like Neopterons.

I mean I feel for PCbros because it seems really arbitrary since the game is already up and going on PC at this point. But yeah I have a perpetual backlog as well so it’s easy to fill in the time.

Only mention was how it was the most recognised from that game, not sure where this "one rep for each game" thing came from

*next year

If they're gonna bring her back, at least make the AI more aggressive and give it more ranged moves that doesn't have a one year tell

Just talk about the Handler to drown "him" out

Atleast the fight is alright and isn't just another literal plesioth reskin

4 month wait? guess ill just play astrial chain in the meantime

It's makes you feel super blue balled if you where looking forward to playing it
of course it was always going to have a delayed release but there's something about "2020" that stings real bad, especially all the times when they mentioned they were determined to get the pc release out before the end of 2019

You can't hide from me. I stalk you in every thread you post. All of those posts are from me

>both ambhibians have locations where they fit absolutely perfectly
>given that theres only two of them total there is plenty left that they can do in terms of new monster concepts

Am I the only one who legit has trouble with gammoth? Ill always kill her, but getting into tje groove is hard. Those long ass windups always through me off.

If you had half a brain you'd report rule-breaking posts.

IIRC they said he chosen to represent the game because he was the most recognised. It’s essentially just PR talk to let people down easy that he’s the only monster from those games who’ll be in the game (at launch at least). I think that triggered the rosterfaggotry of this board and kicked it into overdrive.

Announcing reports is against the rules.

Suggesting proper action isn’t announcing a report.

I'm really baffled that they didn't let you see other hunters running around town and my only guess is why they didn't was that having everyone in the session loaded at the same time as all those NPCs would've melted consoles or some shit

People were asking for him tons until we found out that Glavenus was the only X/XX monster currently planned for the game.

As cool as a design as he was, he was kind of a boring fight. Even the hyper version didnt feel challenging, he never aggresively comboed his moves like other mons do.

He's one of my most wanted but we'll have to wait until MH6 at minimum.

Surely theres more they can do with the fish wyvern concept.

user I’m way ahead of you on dealing with him.

It's a bit annoying but it's not the end of the world. I feel a but more annoyed about it now than when it was first announced because Iceborne is looking pretty damn good but there's other games to play in the meantime.

Status toads already have their basic movement and digging animations
I think every missing skeleton except Snake Wyverns has their basic shit in some form in small monsters or endemic life at this point.

>oh no that's not a t-rex, that's a moosetaur. it's a completely unique monster, just buy the game

Probably has more to do with how they instanced changes in the town. Like how the elder melder shouldn't be there if you're in LR, or how the canteen and tree are at different states depending on the quest.
It would've been a pain to run 16 separate instances overlapping.

She's probably the ugliest woman I've seen in a video game.

boy you're gonna love XX since its reused assets: the game

Just curious, but do un-rustled (you)s get you off too?

They gotta give it a really unique treatment like what happened with Seregios and Astalos where they share almost nothing with the base Wyvern moveset. Lavasioth used to be pretty unique but World gutted half its moves for the special jumping attack in the one room you fight it in.
The other thing is that most fish concepts could be done better as Leviathans.

Wasn't the wording more that he's the most recognisable monster from that game among fans, followed by a note of how he's on the games cover. So they chose to include him, no mention of singlehanded representation

If it's just NPCs and visuals that can totally be clientside
Or make the appearance shown as the host's session like how the Canteen upgrades/ingredients are shared anyways, and just give the melder a little blurb of dialogue for the people who can't actually access it yet.

>Lavasioth used to be pretty unique but World gutted half its moves for the special jumping attack in the one room you fight it in
I hate this, and lavasioth was genuinely fun to fight in XX

You can mod the NPCs into the gathering hub and it doesn't cause any problems to anyone else in there.

The quality of this series would improve if they deleted Piscine Wyvern as an entire classification and concept. There I said it. You can’t touch me Ryozo.

But the NPC hunters do roam around town and take quests from the board and then fly off with wingdrakes though..

It has a bunch of moves none of the other Fish Wyverns got, especially the whack-a-mole pop turret attacks when it starts digging.

I was talking about other players. You only get to see them in the gathering hub.

>Expect monsters

Yikes, glad I stuck with Neptunia.

I think they new people would want agnaktor but at the time leviathan skeleton's where still fucked so they knew nobody would give a fuck about a -sioth monster and just gutted it and gave agnaktor's gimmick but at the same time fucked the gimmick up and made it super unfun to fight

They ruined everything the first game and dos were building towards.

I don't have the pic for it unfortunately but I saw a piece of concept art that showed Uroktor was planned to be in the Elder's Recess, so Agnaktor was probably going to be there at some point as well until I guess they scrapped both alongside the leviathan skeleton.

They're getting better but if you can barely play now I doubt an expansion is gonna change much. You've got 4 months to upgrade.

Try turning volume rendering off, if you still have stuttering then try it on low. For some reason my game performs far smoother if it's on low.

Turn all the graphics settings off then turn them all on one at a time except Volumetric Rendering and see how the game runs on each.

>Exploring a volcanic area with your new handler
How about I explore it by myself while my quest giver stays in the village where she fucking belongs.

I wish and can only hope

Ancient forest would be actually ok if there weren't a metric fuck ton of split paths everywhere and the map was possible to read.

Aesthetically its a nice map but god its such a fucking chore to go through especially when you have shitters like Rathalos that move to the most inconvenient places possible.

Hopefully none. I don't even want half integrated siege shit either like Gog or Kulve. I never want to see a ballista or cannon in a fucking fight.

At this point I only get lost in the middle of the map since you barely have to go there unless you're fighting Jagras or Azure Rath

I still feel like gen1 volcano is the most absolute aids. Or that one map that is like grasslands with cliffs.

Does the Deluxe Physical mean I'll just use the Iceborne disc once the update is out? Or it only contains a code to update base World? Either way I don't want just a digital upgrade

I have no idea but it makes little difference to me which disc I use.

Why

I don't think elements are affected by crit but I might be wrong.

Chamelanineos

>Why
rain can cause lag

??? What is critical element?

>I don't think elements are affected by crit but I might be wrong.
I was just referring to the fact that Velkhana's armor SUPPOSEDLY has Crit Element and Crit Draw as set bonuses

If that one pic is to be believed has Crit Element and a new skill that increases damage for a time if you stay sheathed long enough. The set bonuses seem more geared towards Longsword with the new Iai attacks, depends on how strong the bonuses are and how long it takes to charge

Meh, haven't felt it on my pc

Oh, I didn't really follow the leaks.

As soon as it'll let me.

Works for me.

>has 5 glutton hbgs
>No kjarr insect glaives.
I literally have every single taroth/kjarr weapon except insect glaives. It's the one weapon I'm trying to finish my sets for but I think I'll just give up on kulve.

Anyways, do you guys think Sony will stop being jews and let capcom bring over SFV to PC after iceborne releases on consoles? What the fuck after we doing for 5 months on PC?

>new skill that increases damage for a time if you stay sheathed long enough
I can't remember correctly because i didn't save the picture but i'm sure the new skill was a fancy new name for Crit draw, at least going off the description.

but SFV is on PC?

Dicking around in random hunts, stocking up on whetfish maybe.
I stopped caring about Kulve a while ago, never got my Taroth Crest Claw and I can't be bothered to go after the Kjarr stuff more than the few runs I already did.

Crit element isn't a leak user. It's a skill in base game and previous games.

>What the fuck after we doing for 5 months on PC?
You'll just do the Autumn Festival rerun and Winter Festival rerun while looking at these threads and slowly going insane because Iceborne PS4 will have its first, maybe second title update by the time it hits PC - and you'll be delayed on that content too just like last time.

>What the fuck are we doing for 5 months on PC?
Nothing, they primarily care about PS4. Just hope they don't somehow fuck up the release like they did last August.

Crit Draw already exists and its just called Crit Draw. The new skill was called Frostcraft and functions entirely differently, supposedly.

Does the IB disk include the entire game or is it just a World disc and a code to download the dlc?

>What the fuck after we doing for 5 months on PC?
ill be bored out of my mind so i guess ill try to get my gf pregnant

Considering we haven't gotten it by now I wouldn't expect it to happen at all.

I really hope that leak is fake. Feels bad knowing that LS would be the only weapon that could make use of both skills, maybe GS too if the madmen at Capcom finally made elements worth using with it.

SFV event quests with Ryu and Thicc Thighs layered armor and Hadouken emote, user. I thought i was obvious

Guess i just misread then, thanks for clearing it up.

Well even if elemental GS isn't great, they've had elemental multipliers on the charge attacks since at least 3rd gen so crit element wouldn't be entirely worthless. Especially if a good sword along the lines of Black Fatalis Blade shows up again.

So you can get a headstart in MR!

You need to sheathe to activate the frost craft buff. The buff takes time to build up and loses stacks each hit. Every weapon that can unload a strong attack shortly after unsheathing benefits. Long sword needs spirit combo first for it to be actually useful, you might as well use multiboost instead of frostcraft since longsword isn't about sheathing your weapon and unsheathing it over and over- you're going to be wasting dps staying in Iai slash stance instead of attacking continuously.
Gs can go back to crit draw quick sheathe + impact mantle(with slugger jewels affixed). Hammer can power charge and do charge level 3 after stacking. Heavybowgun will obliterate everything with frost craft + supercritical Wyvernsnipe.
Basically any weapon that's fast and dependent on getting in multiple quick hits is not very good with Frostcraft.

Bugs are on the backburner because their skeletons are the least used, but they have a decent chance of returning in MH6. Unique weapon models are looking good to, there’s still reskins galore but the final stage of most weapons in Master Rank are unique looking now.

To be fair you should hunt the monster by yourself the first time around before begging for help like a shitter.

He was meant for base world. Hell, his ID is even in the monster folder, which even oroshi kirin didn't have. So if he was cut altogether, his replacement was either behemoth or leshen, the two monsters that weren't planned from the start of world.

I’ll be kind of shocked if Alatreon isn’t in Iceborne at least as post-launch considering he was clearly planned. God knows they want to get their money’s worth out of the Kushala skeleton.

There’s two. The one they’ve shown in all the trailers is bigger than Elder’s Recess and Coral Highlands and apparently almost another whole map combined. The second is a smaller one that apparently works like the Tower and Everwoods from older games.

Fuck Zinogre and fuck furries

Before Glavenus' reveal i had absolutely no intention to buy Iceborne

How did Tower work? I checked the wiki and form my understanding it's quite different from Everwood. I mean it just looks like a flat arena?

Tower used to be a normal area but then got reworked in 4U since they only kept the top area of it, from what was supposedly leaked the Guiding Lands are closer to the old Tower

i liked how when you jumped down to 9 gravios sniped you with his laser while you were still in the air

Dos tower was a full map. It was shrunk down in portable 2nd and 2G, and had multiple layouts based on the quest.
3rd Gen and 4th Gen only used the outside area, and the summit. They didn't use the island or the interiors, but the full tower has never actually been used since Dos which is why the Yama Tsukami fight in Dos is so different from P2 and 2G.

Nothing as bad as that autist with his everwyrm fake icon and the retard name or that PS2 model pretending it's MHW. He makes 100 posts per thread falseflagging and samefagging

Seek help

Shoo.

I hope they announce the actual date of the PC release this year, so I could fill in the documents for my vacation before everyone at work is gone for the holidays.

I'd say it'll probably drop around the middle of janauary

If you do G-rank, go for Goldbeard Cedeaus. He has some of the best skills I've ever seen an armor have for nonstop attacks. I use Longsword too. Handicraft, Highgrade Earplugs and some other skill. The only negative is the -1 sharpness, but I was able to get a charm to get rid of it.

Why is IG only fun to use in World?

But it isn't.
I only had fun with IG in 4U back when it was broken. When it doesn't delete monsters from existence with its overtuned MVs, it's just another fast mashy weapon, like DBs or SnS, and it hits like wet noodles. And it's no fun to use a weapon with no impact or feedback to its attacks.

why is hammer fun to use in any game?

So..you're saying you only had fun when it was overpowered?

Now get GS became a unga bunga weapon with a braindead combo Hammer is the only weapon left that rewards precision and head sniping which always was the most fun thing to do in MH.

Of all almost 15 weapon types, Hammer ist he only one that still offers that. That's how lopsided and dumb MH weapon variety is now.

Everything else is just about going grug on the monster's body like in any other action game.

Effectively, yes. But it was only accidental. I don't have fun using overpowered weapons, I like using hard hitting weapons, IG in 4U just happened to be overpowered because it was both hard AND fast hitting. I'd still like slower, harder hitting weapons, over the fast ones, even if the latter are overpowered.

Tri barroth was an actual "wall" monster because his charge attack recovery was so fast that capcom nerfed it into the ground ever since.
