Welcome to the official discussion thread for Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on the Wii U!
To start, please add this game to your log, add it to your collection (if applicable), and (when you are ready) rate it using the link above!
And here we are. THE WORLD AS YOU KNEW IT CHANGED ON MARCH 19TH
Game IS NOT Region Locked: NA + SA CAN PLAY with Europe + Australia + Africa(?)
Sorry, Asia!
*THE DEMO IS A DEMON, JUST GET THE GAME!!*Welcome to the Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate thread! This will be our headquarters for coordinating our Hunts, sharing stories of war, and helpful hints for our brothers-in-arms, compatriots, friends, and neighbors. Please be mindful of folks' different definitions of "spoilers," and remember that not EVERYBODY played Monster Hunter Tri on the Wii, though everybody totally should've. The "burden" of running this thread has been placed upon me but...I can't do it alone. I will lean on Maxi and others to help with the heavy lifting occasionally, both in planning things and also in feeding this thread. Please keep it bumped (once we get going). If you could, let us know if you're getting this game, WHEN you're getting this game, and what your aspirations are so we can get us situated in groups with likeminded people. Do you want to barely play this game? Is this going to be your new #1? The most fun with this game is had when you get to go out with a group of guys week in week out, so if we can find someone with a schedule similar to yours, you'll have the most fun with it.

@JargonThe Real Game will probably have like 5+ hours of Tutorial. No, I'm not joking. V was complaining about gathering mushrooms ("Mushroom Hunter" he called it), which you'll find yourself doing on the late missions before the big fight. The Tutorial in Tri was REALLY GOOD and taught you the game VERY WELL. For instance, you can Trap a Monster in nearly every mission for credit, though the Demo really only focuses on Kill..though you're GIVEN Traps. Dig it?
4 people can go out at once. Keep in mind that the Monsters will be like 4 times as tough though (not sure if that is an exact number) in both Offense and Defense. When you create "Jargon," you'll be doing much better than you did yesterday, trust me.@ludist210I was always a roller / dodger. I wonder if the Duals would actually suit me better. Hmm... I'll tinker with it. |

@VofEscaflowneYeah, but, that happens to EVERYBODY. And when that happens, its not like you gotta "do it all over again" or whatever. The monster is just as weak as when you left him, possibly more fatigued when you return in 2 seconds, and more often than not, you'll be traveling with 3 online folks who are still wailing away on the guy. Take that opportunity to heal up, eat some steak, and whet your weapon. Nothing to get peeved about. "It happens."
Demo woes all over again. *sigh*@VofEscaflowneLong Sword is like..its very long. Almost like a huge fishing pole!@canonjHey! I just realized you're not on our list up there. What are your plans? Day 1? |

Finally tried the game. But the 3DS version (on the train)! It was pretty cool. The new weapons are definitely going to take some getting used to. I tried the Bow and the Dual Swords. Not my ol' standby (Great Sword). The 3D was actually a pretty awesome effect, but VERY hard to maintain on a moving train. I turned it off eventually. Aced Bugs Bunny with the Dual Swords and ran out of time with the bow. I never really figured out how it worked... The Monster Lock-on feature is a pretty neat work around (make sure it's selected, and then L will focus on the monster's current position), but I dunno if I really want to play Monster Hunter on a handheld. It was fun, but it feels more at home, y'know... at home. No offense, Grant.@JargonYeah, it isn't anything like a Devil May Cry or Bayonetta. The key aspects of the combat are the (not always interruptible) realistic attack animations and the locational damage. So getting, say, a solid hit on a monster's tail is actually pretty difficult and feels really good, although it wouldn't seem impressive to an outside observer. Also, single-player is less dynamic (but more taxing) than multiplayer, since the beast is usually focused on you. I dunno. The full game is pretty emergent. All of the systems are simple, but they combine very well. |

@VofEscaflowneAll the Wii U games are like $60, why would it be less? It is going to give anyone of us a MINIMUM of 300 hours of entertainment.Anand said:..but it feels more at home, y'know... at home. No offense, Grant. He's not in here (console thread), you can speak candidly. |
