Playstation can have a Monster Hunter XX port.
In exchange, Nintendo should get a port of Persona 5.

Nah son, its because of what Capcom themselves said.

Thinks buying more servers can fix a bad patch
Sony can keep Persona if thats the case.
This thread is moving quick... Anybody have answers to these questions?
2 questions:
1. Is the story mode different from generation?
2. Is it the same monster that you have to fight to change level in multiplayer? (that bone dragon with the laser that kills you in one shoot made me quit multiplayer)

just waiting on the Capcom twist where we need the 3DS version of XX to transfer our saves from the old 3DS version, lol.
Also last time the transfer tool took a couple days to go up, but at least I could play it on 3DS in the meantime. I'm very impatient when it comes to MH, I bought Generations digitally when my Amazon copy was late. I still have that extra copy...
I haven't played XX myself, but in the past these expansions include the original game in its entirety with the extra stuff bolted on. So yeah, you'd have to fight Nakarkos to access the higher tier of content. But when XX is out you could just hang out in Discord with us and we'll show you what happens to that thing when you bring 2 pierce bowguns to it.

I guess it's a good thing I bared played Monster Hunter Generations the first time.
I swear, I'll get around to playing MonHun for more than a few hours at some point.

Have to say, this is very exciting news. Should be the perfect MP game for me and my two friends to get into. Hopefully it comes out this year.
Thanks for the answers and future help
. He killed me twice with the laser and after that the strangers I was playing with for some reason started to ignore me
.Still, I might skip it if the single player is the same. I play these game mostly for the single player the monster are just so much fun when they only focus on you and you have to learn their every move.

There's a new single player campaign as well.

That's how I played MH for the longest time - I still like solo play as much as I do multiplayer. I often don't even bring AI partners just because I enjoy the 'punch-out' kind of feeling when you're alone.
But multiplayer is really fun especially with GAF. Although yeah, this is a lot of repeated content if you've already played Generations. In my case I'm not super stoked for the content but rather just being able to play MH on a big screen with a proper controller again.

A new single player campaign that takes place after the Generations campaign.
A new rank of multiplayer quests (G rank)
A couple new monsters
Quite a few returning monsters from older games that weren't in Generations
A handful of new deviants
A new tier of multiplayer quests (G Rank)

Bahahahahahahaha.
I get what you're saying and you're not wrong, but "absolutely disgusting" may be exaggerating it a bit. This was 3U on Wii U:
and yeah no one will start screaming for how good it looks, but it doesn't look "disgusting". It's a bit like playing a PS2 game on an emulator. Now i may be wrong because i never played it (only briefly tried the MHG demo), but i don't think XX on 3DS looks worse than 3U on 3DS. So the game on the Switch should look at least on par or better than that, plus you can play it on a small 720p screen (which you couldn't do with the Wii U version of 3, the gamepad was 480p).
But yeah i hope they manage to boost texture/shadows resolution and lock the frame rate to 60fps, i remember reading that it wasn't stable on Wii U for some reason.

Great news anyway. Really curious about the improvements for the Switch version
Same
I hope they are significantly more than what they did for MH3U
Then again MH3U was fantastic in the feature department
Full voice chat, cross region play. Tablet play
Lets hope they do the switch version justice
the thing I hated about 3U is that they used the 3DS assets instead of the Wii ones. So in ways it looked worse than Tri, especially the water. It won't affect whether or not I buy the game, but I'd hope for a bit more work put into this port.
I greatly prefer the older implementations of multiplayer to the more recent 3DS games as well. At least let me use a USB keyboard...

is there a timer for when the event will start?
I wouldn't be so sure. Capcom did create an app that allowed you to transfer your save from the 3DS version of 3U to the Wii U version of 3U.
Oh yeah, I remember that! Even used it myself. Man that makes me hopeful.
it's interesting because early on they released a lot of high quality screenshots of MH Stories that were very clearly not running on a 3DS. People assumed they were from the NX version. It could still be coming, but from what I've heard it did not sell great.
I still want it, but by the time it's out it's looking like I'll have a Switch. So I'd prefer any handheld gaming to be done on that.

I want it too, but the amount of time it takes Capcom to release MonHun in the West is going to be too long.

Port begging, bitter tears on one and fanboy glee on the other side...yep a MH thread. I am in for a MH3U like upgrade, did not spring for the X series yet, should feel fresh.

People should stop referencing data that makes me feel uncomfortable because games get ported to platforms I don't like
This is to Generations what 4U was to 4, 3U was to 3, etc...G-rank is the main draw. . If Generations is the only MH you played, think of it like low rank - high rank - g-rank. It's another tier of quests, monsters and equipment.
It also has a few new and returning monsters, for the highest large monster count to date by a good margin. And some new hunting styles. Of course it's also going to be running on a much more powerful system.
Monster Hunter titles usually have a separate expanded release afterwards. These are usually labeled with a "G" in the title in Japan, but recently in the West these have been referred to as "Ultimate". ("Unite" was used on the PSP)
So for example, we got Monster Hunter 3 on the Wii. Capcom then made the expanded version, Monster Hunter 3G, for 3DS and Wii U. We got that title over here as Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate. Something similar happened with Monster Hunter 4, but the West never got the first game and instead just got Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate.
The differences between the original game and the G version usually amount to a new rank, (base game has Normal and High Rank, G version has G Rank that's harder than High Rank) G Rank versions of weapons and armor sets, a handful of new monsters, and maybe some new story bits. Think of the G/Ultimate version as an expansion pack to the original game, except as a whole separate package. There is also usually a method for people who have the base game to transfer their save directly into the G version.
