The Pro and One X aren't really next-gen systems though? They were just upgrades. Like, I don't think anyone thought the DSi was a next-gen handheld when it came out, for example. Or that the NEW 3DS was a next gen system and Vita was suddenly last-gen. 

 

Switch is a completely different system, not an iterative upgrade to the Wii U.

I have!  I'm having a blast with Rise.

 

If we're Switch pals we need to do hunts together.  I'm currently working on 7* HR but I'm down for all the hunts.

Yeah I’ve seen you playing. I’m HR2 and I beat him. Took about 20 mega potions, 2 carts, and returning to camp multiple times to eat a meal but I did it! lol.

Yeah he got me a couple times the first fight.  He's like a mix of Teostra and Nargacuga.  Very fun fight.

And yeah I’m having so much fun playing Rise. Much more actual fun than I did playing World or Generations.

All you people who loved Returnal (who will never read this) will love the Narwa fight since she launches big energy ring attacks like in Returnal.

Lol the one thing people want. 

[Keyser_Soze]

I wouldn't super care about Cross Play but Cross Save would be nice. That being said there are people who don't mind starting over like they did with MHW.

Monster Hunter Rise's launch on Steam isn't nearly as giant as that of MH World, but it's still putting in a big showing on day one

Did you or any of the master race get it for PC?  Saw Max streaming it and he said it didn’t bother him starting completely over because it was such a great game.

He did the same thing with MHW.

 

I haven't gotten it yet, but I'd like to.

I played all last night with friends. It really is a great Mon Hun game. I mean if it’s that fun on Switch I bet the PC version is pure eye candy.

I specifically didn't buy it on Switch because starting World over after like 70+ hours just ruined the game for me, couldn't even get into Iceborne. This game is a lot of fun so far, just unlocked 5 star hunts, game honestly seems super easy so far, have been steamrolling everything first try despite being a low DPS hunting horn main playing solo for the most part, which is unusual. I'm glad the game spends a lot less time with the slow shit. I do wish games like this had a "just tell me what's new" tutorial mode for everyone super familiar with the basics. 

 

I hate every single character, so the story is about on par with other MH titles in that I enjoy it a lot more when I skip it. My favorite character is my own since I made him look like a weeb samurai with a stoner voice.

 

Love the wirebug stuff, wish you could use it to get out of roar stuns so I could finally play an MH title without worrying about this lame mechanic I've never liked. Ah well, least you can use it to get out of most other attacks and continue your onslaught. Should start with 3 by default though.

Yeah 3 wirebugs would be perfect. Or at the very least let me keep all 3 once I add that third one instead of disappearing. I hate when I think I have 3 during a intense fight only to realize that uh oh I don’t lol.

Bring a palico with the "Endemic Life" Skill.

 

Every "arena" where you typically fight a monster will have an extra wirebug.

 

You can use wirebug whisperer to extend the lifespan of the third wirebug as well as increase your recharge speed. It's easy enough to decorate for and it's not unheard of to meld talisman that will give you two or three points in it.

 

 

For most roar stuns, you can simply roll through them and use i-frames to your advantage, depending on the monster of course. Monsters with short roars like Nargacuga or Tigrex can easily be rolled through without any evasion skills. Monsters like Rathalos or Diablos will require at least evade +1 to be able to roll through. In the case of using Hunting Horn, a well-timed slide beat (ZL+Y on Switch) will definitely get you through the majority of roars unscathed. But I mean, the best thing you can do is just keep them from roaring in the first place by beating them as stylishly as possible.

Oh I'm aware of the extra wirebugs and how to get them, just wish 3 was the default. Feels so much better than two.

 

I appreciate the advice about roars. My problem isn't not being able to roll through them, it's just I get irritated when they interrupt me when I'm already doing something. I honestly just consider them an annoyance.

Thanks for the video, by the way, good to know I'm mostly playing Hunting Horn kind of correct in an aggressive sense. I don't believe I have that weird roll attack he keeps doing, though... Unless I just haven't been using it. Kind of looks like a Switch Attack that I don't have yet. I'm nowhere near on that guy's level yet, but at least I now know I'm not going in the wrong direction!

[Xbob42]

I mean the roll attack he does where he appears to do a normal roll that leads into two attacks that he spams over the course of that fight. Either I don't know that button combo or I don't have that skill yet. He uses it quite a bit so I imagine there's good reason for that.

Also good to see Hunting Horn finally get some love, depending on the game it can either be incredibly weak or just outright not be included, despite being my favorite weapon by far. At least in terms of concept.

Curious do the PC players play with kb/m or controller?

I played MHW with a controller.

I'm sure others play with kb/m

[Xbob42]

I play with controller, but I did do a hunt using KBM when I forgot to connect my controller. It actually controlled very well and all the menus were very responsive to using a mouse, which sounds like a super basic thing, but with Japanese console ports, sometimes the mouse doesn't even work in menus, or works in really stupid ways like moving the mouse down selects the next item as though you were using a D-Pad, with no cursor. That one's always fun. 

 

Anyway it seemed very well done here and if I start using any ranged weapons I will definitely play with KBM.

New items were just announced for next week's update. Here are the details:

Looks like armor to help n00bs not really for anyone else.

As of Ver.3.9.0.0, we plan to sync the contents of the Steam version with the Nintendo Switch version.

 

According to the steam page so PC users will get this as well.
