Your comparing a mobile phone to a games console, anyway, I use to have an iPhone but I'm so glad I changed over to the galaxy s3.

This, all day long this..... GS3 over I-Sheep any day...

Ugh, Im stuck on Agnaktor (high 8*), I know his moves and all that mess, tried a LS, GS, GL, and he is just steamrolling me... embarrassing really....

   Love having PS+, its not like your getting just some indie games for free, full blown good games pop up free, or at massive discounts. Its well worth it.

   To clarify, if you download a free game, you have it as long as your a subscriber. If you unsubcribe, you wont have access to it until you subscribe again and it will be right there waiting for you. If you paid any amount for a game discounted PS+ game, even if it was just a penny, you will have it forever, even if you no longer are a PS+ member.

That Charizard XL *drool* wish i could have got one....

I can't check my copy of the strategy guide right now, but wouldn't high rank gobul be the best chance of getting Lantern+?  Its primarily a high rank item I believe, and I thought it had a much higher drop rate at high rank.  I'll check when I get a chance if no one finds out.

 

Sounds like some of you have hit the grinding and farming phase.  This is the hardest part to like about the game since you do the same quest so many times and don't get that one thing you want.  Some terminology to know for those who are new:

Farming-fighting a monster over and over for a part

Desire Sensor- The game seems to know what you want.  The more you want something, the less likely the game will give it to you.  For example, I don't need rathian mantles, but I've gotten 6 in the 15 rathians I've fought at G rank.  Conversely, I've fought 40 high rank brachydios and only gotten 3 dios gems, and I want those badly.

 

Also, hurray! This thread isn't dead!

This is correct, High rank Lantern+ chance is 60% and regular Lantern is 40%

frkin hell....just slayed 20 gobal in G rank but cant get that freakin Lantern+ only Beacons.....is there another quest i should look in to?

According to my Brady Strat guide, The G-rank Lantern+ is 40% chance, and that beacon is 60%. 20 kills and no drop yet on a 40% chance seems like your just getting bad luck

friggin necroposters......

Cant decide which system to get this game for......

Im behind bc work schedule but right now i know i'll need the Lagi+ and/or Baroth+ parts for gunlance upgrade. Armor im working to getting the Uragaan+ U or Z armor, or Rhenoplos+ S or X.

Avoid these forums for 6 months or so after bc it will be more infested with doom threads than it already is....

you are missing a lot. But dont worry about it, monster hunter is not for everyone.

Get dragons dogma. Its probably like 10 bucks for 360 or ps3. It has everything you like about the mh concept, with everything thats frusterating you streamlined out.

What he said ^...... now going back to MH

You mean EPIC?  They could have pulled off most of it, at least made it look similar, hell they could make it look the same in UE3.

Oh no, I meant Crytek could have made something on the PS3 that looks better than what EPIC did on this PS4 demo. Basically im just saying im not seeing the cause for any ps4 hype because the graphics so far just look like what a respectable developer like Crytek has already done with ps3.

Im really not moved at all by the ps4 yet, I would really hope those framerates are cleaned up for the amount of hype and bold statements like "ps4 will outperform most pc's". Honestly Crytek could of pulled off that PS4 demo on the PS3....

      In all honesty, i have played playstation most of all since probably ps1/ps2, nintendo before then, a little xbox in between. Im almost 30 and i have come to the point where sony and msoft are too much about graphics and competition and have lost touch with what it is to have fun playing a game. I bought my Wii U a couple weeks after launch and tbh, Nintendo still holds that charm of fun that the other guys have forgotten about. I think most people have lost touch with just having fun and are too caught up in fanboy wars, graphics wars, exclusive wars, blah blah blah.

      The games will come, every system these days have a fairly weak launch in reality, unfinished/unpolished os's, delayed/late 1st party games. I agree Nintendo missed out of some 1st party titles for launch and missing some potential 3rd parties, but i think in time the games will be here, the system will be polished up, developers that stick it out and learn to develop quality titles and show what it can really do, things will play out fine.

      Some claim they have patience but they really dont, and coming from someone who almost always is a day 1 console buyer thats been through this same repetitive stuff with ps360vita (Vita forums were exactly like this for the longest time), the problem of launch issues wont be going anywhere for any system, learn patience or wait to make your purchase.

I hope Gamestop sinks like the titanic...... Many other retailers that are just as good with actual deals and without having to deal with the idiots that think they know the whole gaming industry because they got hired at their little minimum wage job. Will be a long ways off before you see 100% digital downloads only. Yeah i see it happening some day, but wont be for a long time.

I played dual swords through most of freedom unite, this time around im finding my success and enjoyment is with the gunlance >

Man that whole jumping onto monsters and attacking it in 4 is pure bad@ssery

I just ordered this game, you might see some posts from me around the forum saying that after I had played the demo I didn't like it and that it's an aquired taste, well I honestly think I just aquired that taste lol, I've been playing the demo over and over and I've seen a couple of reviews and tons of gameplay videos and this game not only looks and feels FUN IT'S HUGE!!!!! I really am sure I will get my moneys worth and I was wrong itis my type of game, I should be getting it about Monday or Tuesday so I'll see you online and on MiiVerse!

Im glad to hear this, Monster Hunter cannot be appreciated until one dives in and experiences the depth and hours that can be had in this game. Saddens me so many people are getting so much farther ahead of me already bc i work so many hours in a week haha. Just now getting my Lagi gear at about 35 hours in, lol. I also just hit a minor speed bumb at Duramboros last night, been trucking through monsters till i got to him and maybe im just being sloppy or was tired but he wasnt letting me get the kill yet lol smdh..

       About 30 hours in now, would be more but that whole working 10-11 hour days thing gets in the way. Only fight i completely loathe at this point is Gobul, god that was a pain but that was when i was still using greatsword, since i have been on the gunlance im blowing monsters to pieces. Its just harder for me to get the cuts with gunlance so may wind up using greatsword when i need to farm a monster part. Currently in full Barroth gear and about to craft the matching barroth gunlance  after i double check the others stats. Love this game ><

I'll add you..

What weapon is everyone rollin with? I started greatsword up into 4 star quests, but i just got my gunlance skills in check and causing some havok with that now now

So, how is everyone's hunting coming along? Only about 12-14 hours in due to work, going to finish up the 3 star quests soon, backtracking for a King's Frill drop off G.Jaggi since apparently i have crap luck with a 65% drop rate, want my armor to match

EDIT: 3rd G.Jaggi hunt dropped got it, crafting and moving back to 3 star quests

Another doom and gloom thread, not that it couldnt have just been a reply in one of the many other doom threads.... going back to hunting more monsters on my doomed Wii U... smdh

just got home from work, about to fire up another night of Monster Hunter this game is great....

and now best buy sends me another email that my lego city was shipped today, eta tomorrow by 4:30 yay
