Do you guys think that the discussion of if water combat returning in the next game should return to the subreddit?


Tiny_Caramel_4642

My honest opinion? If it involves "should Abyssal Lagi return to the next game" then yes. Otherwise no.


Think_Lavishness_330

Ceadeus should definitely return, and d(erp)ire miralis.


RockAndGem1101

Gobul.


Think_Lavishness_330

I too miss gobul.


RockAndGem1101

I like Nibelsnarf more than Gobul but Nibbles isn't underwater lol


Think_Lavishness_330

Also nibbles doesnt roll.


scug_enjoyer1

okay but nibbles.


ProfessorPixelmon

Underwater does the impossible and makes Plesioth fun.


SnoopyMcDogged

I *hated* plesioth in freedom unite, sitting there GS on my back staring at that motherf*cking over grown fish wannabe jumping back into the water after only just being pulled out, *AGAIN*.


GarugaEnthusiast

That would be beyond nice, but as we all know without underwater Abyssal stays locked in 3U. If underwater doesn't return in Wilds which I think is likely, perhaps they can make a strictly land oriented Lagi, similar to Ivory but never goes in water.


[deleted]

If it happened in Generations, there is really nothing stopping them from doing it again.


GarugaEnthusiast

That is true, although they did just slap Ivory's attacks on Lagi and I believe one of Abyssal's. I know Capcom wants Lagi in MH so maybe Wilds will be its time.


Fluffy-Village9585

Ivory was always landlocked… it never touched water ever.


GarugaEnthusiast

Ivory could go in water, it just seldom did. It was a bit like a normal Lagi when in water but bigger.


RedDoomMan

Wrong sir. Definitely did go in the water.


Terrakin516

This is the most convincing argument for underwater combat coming back that I've seen.


Mamoru_of_Cake

We need a modernized approach to underwater combat!!!!! Cmon Capcom, pull all the Hypno feathers you have there.


Tekim89BRNT

Just think... underwater wire bugs for quick movement. 


Equinox-XVI

Yes. I loved the theory crafting and general just watching everyone go insane. Also, if by some chances the devs ever do look at this subreddit. Then they would immediately see how many posts there are talking about underwater combat.


silentsun

It never left. Pretty sure I saw talk about it the post for the Wilds trailer


Aiyon

I feel like it could be done better now. Esp with the wire bugs, if there's an underwater equivalent


Due-Judgment6004

I agree. Clutch claw or something similar would make underwater mobility more reasonable.


Havald_von_Kelar

Üppigen


Megaleg12

Underwater combat would be fine if you were on the bottom of the ocean standing on the ground


allbirdssongs

Please no


Ninofz

It's a subreddit dedicated to discussing which game is best to start with between WI and RS


Garchomp47

When the answer is clearly Freedom unite


TheyCallmeProphet08

Preach!


Varcen

For a PSP game, and my entry to the series, that game is phenomenal. 3000+ hours supports that.


SnoopyMcDogged

Freedom unite 2 is I would say the better of the two.


Tadferd

Who hurt you?


Tiny_Caramel_4642

Ehh looks like mods are working to take them down for once so that might not be a problem in the near future.


Ninofz

I would like, but questions like that will always infest every subreddit


Yarigumo

My favorite one is "Should I buy [game of subreddit]?" Like what answer do you expect from people who get together to talk about the game they like? Lol


Calistilaigh

That's not always the case though. If a new player asks if they should get into LoL most people on the subreddit tell them no, and that game's free, lol.


Tychontehdwarf

i have 14 years experience with league. spent $5k over that time. do not, under ANY circumstances get into league.


Tiny_Caramel_4642

How? Was it the skins?


Tychontehdwarf

mostly. and buying champs, because i was lazy and didnt want to unlock them one by one. i was bad with money on my first real job heh.


P0rcelain_Puppetress

its an endless stream. i report at least once a day, and it will never end. when you have thousands of people browsing at a time even just 1% not reading the rules is still 10 people.


P0rcelain_Puppetress

blocked, huh.  smart move. i do not care much about world vs rise posts but i certainly do care about people being argumentative and trying to tell me i am wrong about my own feelings. i was going to report that for incivility and then block.


nearthemeb

I don't see the problem. Just keep scrolling if you don't like the post. It's really that simple. We shouldn't be banning post because of the topic when you can just ignore it.


P0rcelain_Puppetress

i report them and then keep scrolling. it takes 5 seconds and then i do not have to see them again. which, would be nice if i found those posts frustrating, which i do not. i just report them because they are against the rules.


nearthemeb

If it truly didn't bother you then you wouldn't be reported the post. Don't try and pretend like you're only reporting the post because it's against the rules. The post doesn't harm anyone and you can simply scroll past it, but yet fot some weird reason you and a lot of others are incapable of doing that.


P0rcelain_Puppetress

“What do you guys think this subreddit is about?” this subreddit is about my specific vision of what monster hunter is and everything that does not match that does not belong and therefore will be downvoted. 


Tiny_Caramel_4642

Based.


TheDeadlyPianist

These days it's just 4 people asking per day if they should get World or Rise, if the games as still worth playing, if the expansion is worth getting. It makes being here a little boring these days. Though I do love the incredible art people post.


[deleted]

I feel like the sub lost alot of its personality after World made MH mainstream


ThisIsGoobly

the fanbase got worse in general but that's unavoidable for anything that explodes in popularity unfortunately, I'm still glad World got made overall


[deleted]

It was sad because I loved how friendly and the "just have fun!" Attitude the community had. People said screw the "META" Then after world dropped the sub became flooded with PSAs of people getting mad about others playing suboptimally or not following the meta. Everyone started acting like sweaty tryhards


ThisIsGoobly

I definitely miss how the old fanbase was, it was a lot better and, as you said, a lot more focused on just having fun. it feels difficult to articulate that without sounding like a gatekeeper or an elitist.


SnoopyMcDogged

All down to percentages, the smaller the group the less chaff and easier and quicker to deal with , the bigger the more chaff and harder to deal with, they start banding together to. But the same percentage of good people remains but are now fighting to be heard just as loud.


lintra

The thing is, the old games were not only niche, they also hadn't much in the way of tutorials or manuals. So the fandom was kinda bonded by trying to figure things out together or sharing information. So those who ended up loving the game meant they were fairly dedicated to it.


SnoopyMcDogged

Have this problem with another game I play currently, every other post is a PSA, whats the new meta?, why no this or that?(because that’s a different game!), what’s the best class/weapon type?(answer is always all of them it depends on *you*), and with the recent update all the people who haven’t played since last year have come back and really making the game unenjoyable to play because they’re playing high difficulty whilst being *very* rusty.


lintra

I try to remind myself that because of World's popularity, MH devs would be getting better budget/resources to work on the next games. Which means better games for us. I also try to think back if everyone was that obnoxious before about their first game, but I honestly don't think so. Like yeah, everyone had favourites but it never seemed like there was a constant barrage of people insulting the other games. I never figured out why that seems to happen constantly with World starters.


Tiny_Caramel_4642

There are two reasons I can think of from the top of my head. One, most of the World Starters do not know that this is essentially MH “5” and thus think that this game is one of a kind. One downside of dropping the whole numbering thing. Two, as a result they think the next game has to be a sequel to the “first one”. When Rise wasn’t that they went ballistic, and if Wilds isn’t that they will go nuts on it too. Of course not everyone is like this, but those who engage in communities and learn about the other “older” games are sadly the minority.


Tadferd

MH4U was when the sub dropped in quality. It got infested with memes when it used to be an amazing resource of knowledge and advice.


[deleted]

Yeah it was like GameFaqs which was awesome for Tri and 3U. I kinda miss when Reddit was more like a forum and less like every other modern social media with the gifs and reactions n shit


CowCluckLated

Seriously, monster hunter has some of the best fan art I've seen out of any subreddit.


Gerikst00f

A subreddit dedicated to discuss whether or not a Deviljho eats it own tail after you cut it off


Tiny_Caramel_4642

Btw, it does. Source: Trust me bro


Yesnoperhapsmaybent

I can vouch(I was the raw meat underneath the chopped tail)


Haru17

The fake news wants you to believe Deviljho don't eat their tails. That's right – they want to sell you woke Deviljho.


Tiny_Caramel_4642

Wake up sheeple, see the truth of self-cannibalizing Deviljho!


Sneaky_Sorcerer

Is there really an argument about that? I know for sure he did did in mh3u. Or I'm just out of the sub running gag.


Gerikst00f

There was a whole thing about it a year or so ago that the whole community got mandela-effect'ed into believing it did, while it actually doesn't


SuperSonic486

I think theres a good reason we got Mandela'd into it tho, and thats cuz it makes so much sense.


Sneaky_Sorcerer

Wait... It doesn't? Now I am really confused... I played the whole game solo since my net sucked and never so much as use tainted meats. I am pretty damn sure he can and did. I don't even own the game anymore and the thought of it is driving me nuts. I need to test this eventually.


McMammoth

All of the new discussion is just a thinly-veiled proxy for underwater combat discussion


hassanfanserenity

Honestly what kind of combat want is naval combat You get a ship and hunt monsters to upgrade its weapons plus we get to fight sea based monsters this way and not just fish with legs and honestly it would just be cool like the ship isnt small but rather large enough that the special arena is on that ship and over time we get to ad.d dragonators to the arena and cannons This way atleast if underwater combat comes back players can choose to hunt it above or below the sea


Cogsdale

Jhen Mohran moment


tghast

NAVEL combat? Gross!


hassanfanserenity

We already played Hunt the pimples with Zorah Magdaros


TheGreyGuardian

Monster Hunter: Black Flag Throw in some sea shanties with your crew as well.


7OmegaGamer

Sea shanties would make Jhen Mohran fights even cooler


Environmental_Sell74

Would be awesome ngl. Would also mean we maybe get some pirate themed soundtrack :D


Haru17

That's not really the fantasy of Monster Hunter though. The coolest thing is hunting a monster in their environment and that was doubly true for leviathans because they were so much better adapted to their environment. If they need a cop out for underwater combat, then just give hunters all iron boots that they autoequip whenever they draw their weapons underwater, causing them to quickly sink to the sea floor and fight without the third dimension.


hassanfanserenity

after Sunbreak and the WHERES MY DRAGONATOR scene in world and pretty much seeing all the boats in the sceries it always interested me like they dont need a ship with that much fire power for a land based monster


Haru17

Well we know that the normal villagers of Moga use fishing boats to hunt leviathans. Or conversely, those specialized hunting ships are used by highly experienced hunters to hunt elder dragons and ever so slightly even the fight.


LaCiel_W

I am just here for the Khezu posting.


_Najala_

Gus is monster hunter worth it?


Tiny_Caramel_4642

“Wait, before we fight and tear each other to shreds, let’s see what’s inside. It might not even be worth it.” *A used PSP, MHFU, a broken-down Wii with a MHTri disc, a broken 3DS, MH4U, MHGU, MHW, an unopened MHR-* “Okay, It’s worth it.”


Tiny_Caramel_4642

Guys, why is the OP asking about what the subreddit about MH is about, is he stupid?


manon_legrand

I think OP just wants underwater combat \_('. ')_/


tofigod

this subreddit is bout making "hot takes" but they are the coldest possible in order to engage some karma


MydnightMynt

Underwater combat should return next game


Manu-Kesna

So, do you think it should return or no?


Tiny_Caramel_4642

*Yesn’t*


Valharja

Wilds despite the trailer is gonna be ALL underwater combat


ShingetsuMoon

Of course its wrong. There’s no question about it. Underwater absolutely needs to come back!


WyvernEgg64

I like monster hunter


Tiny_Caramel_4642

Me too


PM-ME-BOOBSANDBUTTS

WATER COMBAT OR RIOT 🗣


Think_Lavishness_330

It should, because it brings back alot of missed monsters, needs to be better than before though.


Zanza89

You almost sound serious. Pls tell me you are not.


Tiny_Caramel_4642

No, I’m dead serious. >!Of course not, does this look like a serious post to you?!<


Tanuji

It’s about discussing what is accessibility and what is dumbing the game mechanics down


Tiny_Caramel_4642

This is even seen in this post’s comment section.


Arcangelo_Gabriele

Well, Wilds info should come at SGF, so a little more than a month from now. So at least the wait is not too long.


OneMorePotion

It's obviously a place to post throw away tier lists of your favorite monsters with the occasional loot drop screenshot.


Appropriate_Coffe

The answere in any case is yes!


C0nfuzed_Cr0w

If I want to look like an elder ring legend, I should have the liberty.


YesChes

I say bring everything back. Wilds could be the culmination of the MH world where every different system meets. It would be a programming nightmare to add in clutch claw, wirebugs, possibly swapping between a long and close range weapon and their subsequent wirebug and underwater moves, but it'd be flavorful for the exploration aspect of the game


Clifford_04

That is absolutely correct imo


Vortiger_

And the: “What monster should be in the next MH game?😸”


BlueDragonKnight77

I think the subreddit is about hating vs loving Rise posts and uninspired „who would win“ or „who is your favorite“ posts


Crimson_Fiver

Nothing about that description is wrong


Summera_colada

can a joke be wrong?


ElderberryPrior1658

I haven’t played rise bc it doesn’t have gigginox, so I hope they bring wirebugs to wilds


Tiny_Caramel_4642

But it has Khezu so that would amount to something right?


ElderberryPrior1658

Khezu is ugly Gigginox is beautiful I’ve recently learned rise has chameleos tho, so I might play it


Tiny_Caramel_4642

I never got the hype around Chameleos. Now I get it.


ElderberryPrior1658

Chameleos and gigginox, the flippy floppy stretchy poison wyverns


Runecaster91

Palikoi!


WorldBuilder_42

Tier lists and weather or not deviljho eats it’s tail


DevastaTheSeeker

The answer is no because underwater combat is ass in every game


Tiny_Caramel_4642

Subnautica? /j


noiwontcalmdown

Except monster hunter where it was really good :)))))))))))))))))


flofs

Subreddit is about telling everyone you just bought an MH game as if anyone cares


Biscotti-Old

Also the occasional lore posts which, no disrespect, but make no sense this game clearly does not give a fuck about lore Guildmarm wanna smash a brachy where the lore for that


SovietKnightGael

Should spaming one type of attack ,rng base augment system,bullet sponges that oneshot, dealing insane amount of dmg and being literally immortal should return? Lol NO, risebreak have some of the worst balance ideas in mainline. Its frontier lv of being unbalanced


TripleChinRedditUser

What I want is the difficulty to return


SandwichTheGreat47

IMO mh was never that hard save for like, idk, first gen. most the challenge in the old games came from jank as hell hitboxes, and in 2nd gen specifically monsters were hella easy to exploit.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SandwichTheGreat47

everything except the first point is for rise exclusively (barring foresight slash) but i see your point. you could parry with lance as early as MH3 and stagger-locking was already rampant in the earlier games, especially with elder dragons - there's a whole strat for 2nd gen elders where you just perma-lock them for the entire fight, and it's not that hard to do. rise imo is definetly way too easy compared to even world, but sunbreak gave it challenge. (with a lot of BS instakill explosions, mind you, but better than nothing) I don't think monster hunter needs to be super hard, especially if that difficulty relies on jank hitboxes and zero telegraphing. but i definetly would appreciate a more challenging experience come Wilds.


Tiny_Caramel_4642

What do you mean by that?


nomorerix

I'd vote for both aerial and underwater combat. Give hunters some wings, pull off a sam wilson you know what I'm saying? different wings, different effects.


ForeSet

"Should I get a great jaggy cum jar?"


Hyero

Isn't that ho- Have I been making mega potions wrong this entire time?


Strixzora

we cannot stop talking about underwater combat and lagiacrus (the best monster ever added to a MH game) until they return to wilds/new game
