Today I fought Nergigante for the first time...and then three more times... In the first try I already got it to being close to death (with the skull showing on the map), and fainted two more times in the last area which failed the quest. And all the next attempt were the same, I always fail in the last area by fainting two times. I'm gonna beat it soon, he's really not that hard, but I was wondering if others had the same "problem" with his last area 🙃 Also, how the fuck do you dodge his aerial charge??

Btw. playing without my cat

Players can pre-register for the iOS and Android mobile game at the official Monster Hunter Now website; for their trouble, they’ll be rewarded with in-game bonuses that scale up according to the number of people who sign up. If 500,000 people sign up, everyone gets 10 potions and 3 paintballs (paintballs are used to mark monsters you encounter on your travels to hunt later at home). If 5 million sign up, everyone gets 10,000 Zenny and a 1,000-slot inventory expansion; that’s a lot of space for your monster parts.

At launch, the available weapon types will include:

Sword & Shield Great Sword Long Sword Hammer Light Bowgun Bow

And the monsters players will be tracking down and battling as they take a lunchtime stroll will be:

Great Jagras Kulu-Ya-Ku Pukei-Pukei Barroth Great Girros Tobi Kadachi Jyuratodus Paolumu Anjanath Rathian Legiana Rathalos Diablos

On the official Twitter account, the team announced that an online showcase talking about Monster Hunter Now's release date and gameplay will be held this July 27, 2023, at 4:00 AM PDT or 1:00 PM CEST. The live stream will be held on the game's YouTube channel but not much else was shared on the tweet.

I remember in MH Tri that you would get a "level" of some elemental resistance for each 5 points of that elemental resistance on armour pieces. Like, 4 points would give you no benefit at all, but 5 points would give you low elemental resistance, 10 points mid, and 15 points high (or something like that). So little me thought I would have a little bit of everything, having a couple of points in each resistance, and I only much later found out I actually had no benefit at all. So my question is: do the points/resistances work in the same way in MHW too, or does each point count? I searched the internet but surprisingly did not find an answer.

NGL, that well done steak bag is looking so tasty.

Also, is there a way to directly upload a video file to Lemmy? I didn't see one.

Hi, what is the best way to farm monster parts in Monster Hunter World? Investigations or Arena quests, is there any difference between these regarding drops?

Monster Hunter Now is set to release in September 2023, with signature features of the franchise that are optimized for mobile play

It all but certainly Anjanath. I mean, he's just a T-Rex with wings and fire breath.

I'm mainly posting this to warn anyone interested in this game NOT to buy it. This is a gamepass only type of game. I love Capcom, but this one is just a question mark.

I've played in all CBT and OBTs and I just don't know what this is. Its not dino EDF. Its not Dino Crisis. Its not a Lost Planet reboot (when it should be).

And most importantly it is NOT worth $60. I think it may be fun for a while with a XBGP subscription, but even then, I don't think it lasts long cuz its just...not that interesting, even though it runs well (RE Engine).

I'll spare a detailed diatribe and just say this is your warning to save mulah.

I was never a big Pokémon Go guy, although I dabbled for a while. I'm really curious about Monster Hunter Now, though...did anybody get into the first beta? I did not.

#Sunbreak updates are now live on all platforms. These include fixes for the disappearing materials issue, as well as other bug fixes.

Capcom's expectations for Monster Hunter Now, a company official revealed that the publisher primarily anticipates the game to boost the series' global brand instead of generate "revenue contributions."

Gonna run through the early game of MHW with my wife. Been only using Switchaxe for my first 120 hours or so here, and I think this is a good time to try something new. What would y’all recommend for a switch axe guy? I was thinking this time maybe something fast and can guard? Like the opposite of switch axe? I’m not sure where to go tho.

> What is your main/main rotation for weapons?\ > Any particular reason or story to it?

FYI, there are some federation issues going on atm that's causing posts and comments between some instances to move very slowly or outright drop. The newest version of lemmy, dropping tomorrow, has supposedly taken steps to fix this. So I'm holding onto some posts to watch how things develop.

On Twitter, Monster Hunter Now shared news that it is opening a second round of closed beta testing for the mobile title. However, it seems that the devs are limiting access to the new Monster Hunter spin-off. According to the post, only those with Android devices will be able to participate in the next round. This is quite different from Monster Hunter Now's initial closed beta period, where users who are both on iOS and Android platforms were free to register to test the game. What's more, the game's website posted that only an estimated 10,000 participants will be accepted for this round.

Interesting thesis by the author about instituting a dual wield system from MvC:Infinite into Monster Hunter.

Since Reddit is dying I am moving the link to my comprehensive Monster Hunter Rise guild card titles sheet here! Special thanks to everyone who contributed on the original thread!

With Monster Hunter Rise's updates coming to an end, Capcom's beast-slaying franchise now finds itself at an important crossroads.

Doot Bros rise up! One of my favorite Monster Hunter videos of all time. Doesn't hurt that the beat slaps too.

The Kickstarter campaign for Monster Hunter World: Iceborne The Board Game began at 1 p.m. EDT and has already crossed the finish line with the equivalent of more than $620,000 pledged. The campaign runs through June 1, with an estimated delivery date of November 2024.
