Tri took about the same time (August-April) to reach overseas too, so it's somewhat believeable.fates said:

6-7 months has been typical for Capcom as far as MH goes. It would be surprising to see it come out sooner than that.ElTopo said:
If they're adding online just for western audiences, I'm sure it will end up just as awesome as the addition of the wii speak support for Tri.

BTW: ONM is an unreliable source. I wouldn't trust anything that comes from them.
fates said:
There is quite a bit of text...
Basically, there's
-All Items + Descriptions (Like MH2 has nearly 400 different Items. Then you have descriptions for all of that.)
-All Weapons/Armor + Descriptions (Again, LOTS of stuff.)
-Quest Text
-NPC Text
-Miscellaneous Text (System, Options, Online, Library, Reference, etc.)
Doesn't seem like a lot, but there's quite a bit there in actuality.
BTW, here's the correct release data for Tri.

There's a lot of text in MH, but are they going to translate the whole thing again? I would think that most of it was translated with Tri for Wii. I don't think it would take a whole year to translate the new stuff.

Mistake on my part! Western launches were April, not August.Billychu said:

As far as I can tell, yes. The game just looks like Tri with some new monsters and quests and some recycled from other MH games.
I think you were probably just used to it by the time you got round to fighting it in MHP3rd. Those skills stick around, you know.Tenbatsu said:
Man, I'm torn. The new subspecies monsters look awesome, esp. Zinogre, but I still haven't even done with 3rd. To get to the stage where I'd be able to fight the new subspecies, I'd still have to put in 120 hrs+. I may as well just continue with 3rd and wait for 3rd G. On top of that, FF type zero is coming out this week, so my MH play is gonna take a major step back for a while.
Nope, thats not the case, all the monsters are dumbed down in MHP3. You should really try fighting them in MH3 to know the difference.Jonnyram said:
The only challenging monsters in MHP3 are the last few ones. But still, I see japanese killing them under 5 mins solo in youtube.
In what way are they dumbed down? Can you give some examples.Tenbatsu said:
That's because they've been playing the game for hundreds of hours and have got really good at it. I can't beat anything above HR4 in under 5 mins solo, because I don't have the skills yet lol. Seriously, you think being able to time the side-steps with lance to avoid a Deviljho attack is easy!?
Lol ya but you don't see them killing bosses under 5 mins 'solo' in Tri. Because it's impossible.Boney said:
Monster's HP and damage are lowered in MHP3. Moves are the same but hit boxes are adjusted.Jonnyram said:
In actual fact, MHP3 difficulty is just like MH3 offline. Even while playing with people, the difficulty stays the same. MH3 on the other hand have a difficulty spike when you're connected online. I hope MH3G will follow suit thou.
Edit: An example of Deviljho's Attack Ratio and Health in both versions:
- MH3: Health: 12080 Atk: 360
- MHP3: Health 7150 - 8140 Atk: 300
- Angry mode Atk Multiplier is the same for both: x1.30 for 60s

have some more examples, MHP3 had a lot of readily noticeable nerfs. i'm sure there are more.Jonnyram said:
-Deviljho ground slam has a smaller tremor area affect.
-Barioth lunge has longer startup.
-Barioth got a low damage side tackle added to it's moveset.
-Uragaan post scream double chin pounds now do not hit the player
-Rathalos midair charge is now susceptible to ground traps
-as mentioned already, monster HP lowered substantially.
there were some buffs (namely Agnaktor's moveset), but most of the Tri monsters lost their ferocity in the transfer to P3rd.

Goddammit, I can handle The Last Story and Xenoblade not coming to the US, since I just homebrewed my Wii in less than 2 minutes and imported Xenoblade.
But if NoA starts not bringing 3DS games over, I will be pissed.

Considering how much Nintendo had to do with convincing Capcom of the US release of Tri for the Wii, I am expecting they'll have a lot to do with the (hopefully) localization of this.
The Mana Legend said:
What does NoA have to do with localising a Capcom game?
They may have done a huge amount of work in terms of co-marketing, but Capcom was ultimately the publisher for North America. Nintendo publishes their games in Europe because Capcom doesn't have a European publishing arm.
Yeah, I'm guessing they're going to do the hubs kind of like Pictochat, where every one shares the same wireless address and you can just come and go as you please. The only issue is how many people can be in one room at once; it'll have to be a large enough number that a room full of people doesn't overflow. Pictochat has like what? 30 person limit for each room? And at conventions or events that can full up quickly.Jonnyram said:
Just play MH3 online if you ever get the chance. Experience it yourself and you will know.Jonnyram said:
That's nothing guys, watch this Joe Killer God tier (5mins 9s):

Yeah, as these guys said above, it's definitely way more challenging in MH3. Part of this could also be because it's to their advantage to have online play be difficult to keep people invested longer (they are paying for it in Japan, after all). But the monsters are clearly more threatening and difficult. I've played both games 100+ hours (Tri: 150+, P3: 120+), and the challenge in MHP3 really didn't set in until very recently (last 10-15 hours), and even that hasn't been very challenging. I haven't had a single OMG-crap-my-pants moment in MHP3 apart from maybe the first time I fought gold rathian and silver rathalos together, but even that was more of a perceived threat (they're not THAT hard). But those kinds of moments happened all the time in Tri.Jonnyram said:
They make it way too easy to start with full health/stamina in MHP3, too; unless you don't know what you're doing, you have both pretty much guaranteed straight from the start. In MH3 you have to earn it, and it's not easy.
My fear is that they're going to nerf Tri G as well... I hope not though. MH3 was a lot more enjoyable to play through for me than MHP3 chiefly because it was challenging.
Still love Portable 3rd, don't get me wrong, but it's just not the same.

This isn't the best comparison since it's two different players in different gear in different games but the Tri player had to run Heroics (35% boost in attack) to pull off a similar time.
durrrrrrrrrr
Member
it works fine for a comparison. the Tri player had heroics and captured instead of killed. so a MH3 player needs a 35% boost in attack to get a monster down to 10%(was it?) health, while a P3 player can kill the monster without attack boosts in the same time. HP values are lower in P3, and i'm pretty sure Switch Axe got an upgrade in P3rd as well.Little Green Yoda said:
I was a MH noob with Tri, and although I initially struggled with the great jaggi, royal ludroth, peco... i would say, looking back after 150+ hours, that the first real "stay on your toes" enemy is the barroth. pretty much every boss from there on out you have to be careful because a direct hit-dizzy-direct hit combo has the potential to kill you or almost kill you.john tv said:
And IMO, Diablos, Uragaan, and Agnaktor always were a pain.
Gigginox too for that matter.
