Freedom 2. Waiting for 3 and Freedom Unite right now.
wats the difference of 3 and unite?
Monster Hunter 3 is a direct sequel amd unite is the Monster Hunter 2G from japan
I love Monster Hunter I clocked over 600 hours on the PS2 version I really wish they would release on PS3 or even X360
Is it 3, or Unite, that they are adding a cat sidekick?
Haven’t turned on the Wii in about 5 months. Guess I’ll let it hibernate until 3 hits. Game looks amazing, especially those underwater hunts.
it’s Unite on the psp that’s adding the felyne sidekicks.

that big ass sword looks counter productive…

Thanks for the clarification, PingPong. And thanks for those links, Sonichuman.
^ no prob…I’ll try to keep it up as more info and stuff on the game gets released.
if anyone else wants to ad-hoc party, I usually set up a room for nub hunts (as I am still on elder 4star quests) around the evening, 10pm+ west coast time on 50-J
For problems against congala, try a bow be patient and use charge shots to the head. After a couple of rounds in training school he is pretty easy .
Congalala was a lot easier after practice. The Cephadrome, however, is a pain. I don’t have nearly enough Sonic Bombs for it.
God, I HATE living on East coast. 1 AM is a few hours too late for me. :sad: Any early East coasters doing this?
A very good thread on Monster Hunter Tri can be found over on NeoGAF. Lot’s of very good info in it.
I’ll be the first to say, I’m sad they got rid of bows.
Word they did?!?
Wait, what?! That’s awful!
Unfortunately, yes. They introduced a new melee weapon type, slash axe.
The weapon categories are now
- Small Sword
- Lance
- Hammer
- Bowgun
- Large Sword
- Long Blade
- Slash Axe
isn’t there like 3 types to the bowgun in MH3 now?? i remember from looking at a sprite sheet for the item icons, and i recall seeing the icon for the heavy bowgun, the light bowgun and i suppose an extra light bowgun(?).
also i find it a shame of the new weapon types they introduced in 2 they keep tachi/long blade.
I believe there are still only light/heavy, but the incorporate 3 separate parts you can craft/customize.
Pic of slash axe.

Also, not sure if it is mentioned elsewhere, but it will be P2P. Currently, it is slated as…
14 day free trial
Separate increment plans of…
- 30 days 800 points ($8)
- 60 days 1500 points ($15)
- 90 days 2000 points ($20)
I’m all for paying for non hacked servers, but don’t understand the lack of a localized option. Oh well.
Just need to do more damage when you do dig him up, really. Unless you’re going in severely underequipped or missing a few sonics, it shouldn’t be an issue.
You can, for the most part, stand between his legs and wail away at his soft underbelly (with the bonus effect of randomly hitting his legs and eventually tripping him) though you might have to be wary of his bodyslam. The hitbox on Cephadrome bodyslam isn’t too difficult to figure out and dodge (or just tank once your armor is decent), and staying under his legs avoids like every other attack he has.
Just don’t be greedy and things should work out in the end. If not, get your gear up to spec. If need be, get Devil Slicer lol
:lol: wait… what?? MH3 is p2p and on the wii?? bananas :looney:
btw i was wondering if anyone here has made their way into korean MH:Frontier?? if so, how is it and what’s different between Frontier and console series.
good luck making it onto the Korean servers without a Korean SSN. Japanese servers are way easier to get on.
That said, new areas, new monsters, new gear. No new weapon types, though? Too bad it’s P2P Japan/Korea only, and all kinds of annoying to register for and play.
Pretty much the biggest rule of any monster in this game is: Don’t get greedy and have patience. (Though too much patience can lead to time over)
