Good god, i've plugged over 100 hours into the Monster Hunter Freedom Unite for the psp, usually while playing with a friend of mine. It's ridiculous, and we're not even to the upper tiers yet. Seriously..
Not too bad. Just going to have to go back and scrounge more underwater. There are a couple other things that drop off of monsters that you can trade for resources, though they are also needed for weapon/armor crafting.
Yeah this is true, been playing monster hunter 3rd for psp since december first ( jap version ) Online its....... just so good!! Wife and I hunt every night together before sleepy time.
you always attack the tail first so you can cut it off, duh! joking aside, Monster Hunter does set the animation bar pretty high; it's arguably one of the best animated games in the industry.
kinda sucks that you have to pay for the online too but what can ya do. Anyone found any video reviews of it yet? /Edit. One here. http://wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14209897/monster-hunter-3/videos/monsterhuntertri_vdr_041310.html
You will love it. And everyone you know will love you for it. I'll be picking it up, too. What makes this game great (besides the monster behaviors & armor/weapon creation system) is the multiplayer. Get yer feet wet with SP, and get the move on to the MP.
I haven't taken my guy online yet. I just got my base camp on the up-and-up, and completed the shroom pick'n quest, (never found the ripened shrooms). Can you do all quests online or only the big monster takedowns?
You guys really like this stuff huh? I'm tempted to try it out but I've never played a monster hunter game before. My wii wii needs some love though. Watched a video review...kinda reminds me of Phantasy Star Online for DC & GC.
Also dont use a lance, use a GreatSword or a Hammer, they will help with critical damage and deliver the massivest meatiest bloodiest blows to monster weakpoints as possible. I think we play MH too much pre... what are we up to... like... 1000 hours between us ? on MHP2G alone!
I pumped like 60 hours into this game when it first came out. It's really really great. Especially with a friend. I wish Capcom would make a new Monster Hunter but with current gen specs and graphics and on a better console than the Wii. The online connectivity got really weird at times.
