NSMB looks way better...
Yep I think it looks like shit too....
Also I find the game boring also, it's just mindless hacking and slashing without a story.
Absolutele overhyped I think.

To eaches own, I guess. Some love it, some hate it. But if you classify it that way then you have to classify, almost, all games that way. Especially now a days where every game is either a mindless shooter/action/violent game or an interactive movie. And the game does have a story, just requires you read and follow the plot as it unfolds (aka talking to npc after everyday and/or after every completed quest (not just when there is a text bubble above their heads) interpreting the nondialoged cutscenes and cg movies aswell as the monster themselves. They add to the story as well).Hielkenator said:Trebuchet said:Is it me or the game looks like shit on hdtv?

As for me I love the game. The whole fact you need to make, pretty much, all your items by going out and collecting materials just is awesome to me. But then again I am one of those ppl that loved games like Phantasy Star Online for the collection aspect of trying to get all the rares (or rather, the rares I wanted) The story goes about at the same pace as the stories in any version of Phantasy Star Online (excluding Phantasy Star Universe, but then again that isnt of the same universe as Phantasy Star Online). The gameplay is what I really love because it is, majority, skill based and makes you feel like you are really hunting this ferocious beast (excelling over great odds cept, unlike most games, Monster Hunter doesnt dumb the challenge down just so you feel some flawed since of acheivement for doing what a 7yo could do). My only grip is with the camera, or better yet; the zoom in controls that end making me zoom in close to my character when I am just trying to rotate the camera.
As far as the graphics go, it is the best looking Monster Hunter yet. But the series has been known to keep production values low. Graphics arent everything. But doesnt look that bad, to me, on my 52" HDTV.
Oh and as far as the online, it works fine using UsbLoader Gx for those that want to know.
First Connect (there is no gameplay footage in this video because I had no idea what I was supposed to do)
I've been playing online a few minutes ago.
absolutely no lag.
Very unclear where to go and what to do IMO.
Basicly it's just rooms with no more than 4 people at once. BUMMER.
City's act like lobby's ( only 4 peep at once )
From the city ( lobby ) you can start or join quests ( up to 4 people max )
Choose from arena or quest in wich you can participate.
I was expecting conversating with lots of people in a big virtual city.
YOU CAN ONLY TALK WITH 3 OTHER PEOPLE.
The way you play online, makes the game feel small somehow....
For anybody who wants to know, I'm from europe and can play online without problems.
US version of game. On PAL system.
Latest WiiFlow with Hermes cIOS223 v 4, 38 merged with 37.

Just so you know, the "only four people at a time" thing is only in the US/EU version. In the Japanese version, lobbies could hold up to 10 people at a time. It was changed for the US/EU versions because of WiiSpeak support. With more than 4 people at a time talking on WiiSpeak, it'd get really cluttered and hard to understand.
I played online, right now and dint have any lag, me and and 1 more dude called Krill did a mission, it was the best Wii Online experience Ive ever had, the ability to talk and voice chat with others, no firend codes makes it feel like an Xbox or PS3 title, the game is really fun and is one of my top wii games, maybe even my number 1.
Im loving it!
The fact that a USB keyboard is supported is so easy to communicate.
Sure there maybe only 4 people in a room but we really dont want it so crowded that you forget who yuo were talking too.
Good job CapCom you gave online play on the wii a new life!

Right now I am a lance user, with the 3rd level bone lance, wearing a mix of rhenoplas and jaggi armour. I am tanking this shit up
I have to get some more king's frills before I can go full rhenoplas armour. I am up to 3 star missions and am loving this game to death. I will jump online as soon as I get a wiispeak kit.

damn! so the 4 ppl per city is hardcoded? it was good when we had more people in the japanese version cause then when you jump in to a city you can pick one with more/free people... instead of getting locked into a party
Im planning on buying a retail copy (PAL). Will it work on my wiikey Console? Have anyone tested a retail copy in NA, does it work on a chipped Wii?
im not into the chipped wii's but do regular Nintendo updates affect the chips' functioning in any way ?
I've seen the dump work on wiikey2 on this forum

No, the Nintendo updates does affect the chips functionality so Im still at 3.2E.
Sounds great if the dump works on Wiikey2.
Hmm, now I read that florian had some freezing issues, but that some other posters doesn't have had any issues with playing the NTSC-back up of MH Tri on a Pal Wiikey.

serious? ive spent nearly 3 hours single player and im still on 1 star level missions. im too using lance, was big sword before.
Christ the controls are unintuitive, I'm sure it's a little better with a classic controller but even the menus etc are a headfuck, open hunter notes, hold Z, point and drag monster, hold C while pressing left and right to try and find a potion whilst running away from a monster, try and line up a sword swing with the turning circle of a tank, I feel like I'm entering a cheat code when I'm just playing the game. Only an hour in, maybe I'll get used to it the more I play. At the moment I have difficulty even getting my character in the right position to talk to someone, never mind kill something.
Also, what's with having to stand in front of a patch of weeds or a fallen monster spamming A and watching the same animation 5 times before you get everything? What's the fucking point in that? Why not just give you all 4 or 5 item the first time you press A?

I havent had lag but I have had a disconnect and a 11643 error that sent me back to the city (which sucked because I was fighting Royal Ludroth with a group and he was about dead then the error kicked everyone else from the room. Then I got a 11643 error and was sent back to the city). But other than those 2 times, almost completely flawless.lvholanda said:
Most fun online experience I have had since the first PSO. Now if only there could be a next gen (either a next gen Monster Hunter or a copycat) game with similar playstyle and structure.

@BlueStar - I know what you mean about the controls, I'm only about an hour in myself though, so i think I'll get used to it. Having to press a over and over again is getting right on my tits.
Can't wait to try this online, think I'll be liberating a spare usb keyboard from work
Also, just in case anyone's still struggling:
Install Hermes cIOS223 v 4, 38 merged with 37, then set your usbloader to use ios223 for this game.

I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs -

I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
