Trailer was a total snoozer IMO. Everyone gets so excited by tech but the art design is bland, the environments look like MH2, the music was bad and the trailer was poorly cut. This looks like Capcom in name only - $100 says the real MH team wants nothing to do with this, just like Frontier.

Oooooh. Tell us more about frontier. What team makes it? Is the reason no monster ever make the jump really because they refuse to acknowledge it.

EDIT: Finally saw the trailer. My excitement dropped. Did not think i could reach such lows after such an initial high based of the title.

What?

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Also it is just me or are the animations worse than the PSP MonHun games. Like, the SnS looked like there was no transition at all between slices.

 

[Brad Grenz]

Wait, it's being made by Tencent? Why CryEngine 3? Tencent owns almost half of Epic. Why not Unreal Engine?

 

[vareon]

The trailer looks like Monster Hunter with HD assets, and the release timing, etc is pretty low-key compared to the other games.

If Capcom isn't excited with this, there's no reason for me to be excited as well.

 

[KillerTravis]

What the hell?! The combat looks really off for some reason.

Yeah, this most be it.

 

[Insaniac]

I'm so confused, so this is a online MH for china?

 

[d0c_zaius]

beaver thing. graphics. jump sword cut. omg.

whatever it takes I will play this.

 

[Usobuko]

When Tencent paid $400M to have a majority stake in Riot, I thought it was just a one-off investment on their part, an incident similar to Li Ka-shing's Horizons Ventures with Facebook. It was only when Tencent paid $330M for 40% of Epic Games that it struck me that the company was being very aggressive and ambitious in this medium.

Expect to see Tencent making big moves in the next generation, it's clear they want to leave their footprint on a global stage. It's pretty good for Japanese companies as a whole because the Chinese youths are very receptive to Japanese entertainment and culture.

They are trying to make CryEngine 3 look bad.

Even if true, the "real MH team" needs to wake up and smell the coffee. They are becoming dinosaurs and are about to go extinct if they don't step of their game.

 

[K.Sabot]

Finally, a MH game I can appreciate with my eyes.

Have you played 4? Holy shit, tell us about it.

Same thing, I guess?

Yes.

oh boy an mmo made by a different team. Gonna be stellar.

That longsword animation was pretty janky.

I don't understand what this means. We don't know any mechanical differences between this and the mainline games yet and the next title is a 3DS game so of course it won't look as good as a PC exclusive.

 

[Tomat]

Going to agree with the "that didn't look great" sentiment. Combat looks off, weapons effects sound terrible, and I hate the way this game looks on CryEngine.

wut

MH still seems to sell ridiculously well

 

[Alexios]

When/if Capcom makes a HD MonHun style game it will look 1000x better in every way.

 

[Slime]

Yes.

Sorry, missed your post on the first page.

Anyway, agree with what john tv said. After trying out Frontier, not getting hyped for any non-main series MH.

 

[Arla]

Hunter's Blade 2.0

 

[zroid]

:OOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[djkeem]

looks like jurassic park

 

[Halfmunch]

I can't wait, I like the trailer... Love seeing some of those classic monsters from MH2. Hope they do an English version. I miss the prehistoric feel of the original games.

 

[vareon]

Also correct me if I'm wrong, didn't we have a Monster Hunter Online before?

 

[burgerdog]

Dang, this looks(obviously) so much better than 3U on Wii U. I need to play this.

 

[Herb Alpert]

A MMO? Made by another team?
But, hey, some people said it had beautiful graphics so it must be great, I guess.
Curb your enthusiasm. I bet MH4 will be way more ugly but way better.

Monster Hunter Frontier

It's an mmo?

 

[Astery]

o wow it's done.
The assets still looks mostly the same from ps2 and wii with some better texture, but better than MHF none the less. I just hope tencent will do f2p right as they allowed LOL to.

Pretty much.

Monster Hunter Frontier

Thanks, just wiki'd. I see it was released on Xbox 360 in 2010 but I didn't see much excitement back then.

 

[drizzle]

Not in the US. Japanese (Asian?) Market only.

 

[Nibel]

It's technically better which is quite obvious

But from music to art design it is not the MH standard; pretty bland showing

 

[Beelzebub]

something is definitely off about the combat, whats with the cheap sound. also rathian looked weird and wtf was that tail cut move.

 

[Fistwell]

Yeah so it doesn't look so good, music sucked (they murdered the theme), some of the animation is shit, and it's pretty unlikely it ever hits the west. Also, retarded hamster.
Still interested!!!!!

"I'll eat yo (salty) nuts!"

 

[Maximilian Kolbe]

I'll translate them if nobody else do so
After my lunch is finished

Can you translate this?many details here

edit:seems there will be dynamic time and weather

 

[Alcotholic]

Holy shit. What? It looks so amazing!

 

[InsaneZero]

Well, MHF is really an up-rezzed MH2/G graphically, with very little effort to hide the fact that the assets and geometry are still very much based on a PS2 game.

 

[KillerTravis]

Well it's not made by the MH team. It's like a Devil May Cry not made by Capcom.

 

[Hattori]

if clunky animations is what HD will bring to MH, I want no part of it

 

[Ouren]

Still using a ton of those older art assets. The newer shaders make them look a lot nicer though.

 

[Qvoth]

Well beggars can't choosers
It's been a long time since my last mh game mhp3, so I'm really excited about this, even if it's made by a different team or whatever

 

[Arla]

Graphically it's inferior but everything else about MH4 just looks so much better.

Here's the latest trailer.
http://youtu.be/wSwhrNBmaQ4

Even it if is in HD and on PC it just doesn't compare.

 

[Ridley327]

A monster hunter that doesn't look like ass? Huh.

Where?

who's begging, I have mh3u now and mh4 down the road.

 

[bon]

You got my attention with CryEngine 3 but then lost it with Chinese MMO.

Everyone who refuses to buy a Nintendo system for Monster Hunter I guess.

Hadn't seen that new Axe weapon. Looks really powerful, good complement to the staff.
