Longsword and sword + shield have aerial-style attacks, but I think that's it - though the environments have a ton more stuff to jump off of, so everyone will have greater access to midair attacks. Longsword also has an adept-ish move (dodge a hit and then counterattack to raise your meter up a level) but it looks a lot trickier to pull off because you have to combo into it from another attack.

Huh. I could have sworn I saw a lot more doing jumps. Maybe the fast cut trailers have confused me.

If you aren't using the crazy infinite axe combo you aren't switch axing right. In non monhan news, Dauntless put out a video preview for it's big December update. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQB8stVFTdk I think it looks pretty cool but your mileage may vary and that's ok.  :edit: December 8th? That's earlier than I thought. nice 7c Nickel fucked around with this message at 05:07 on Dec 7, 2017 |

Well, one of the new environmental features are slopes that you can jump off of when you're sliding down them. Some of the attacks you can do from those jumps are pretty flashy. https://i.imgur.com/khCln1w.gifv

Dual blades seem to have been given cool new stuff they can do while in the air, but to actually get in the air you'll still need to find a ledge or slope to jump off of. https://i.imgur.com/eORdbfQ.mp4

I've been seconding dual blades for enemies that switch axe is too slow for. And World looks like it will keep that trend. Looks great.

I'm so, so glad they did basically 100% of what I wanted them to do with the styles: Try a whole bunch of wild off-the-wall poo poo in X/XX and then incorporate what was good about them into the base gameplay of the next game. Can't wait for next week.

Vib Rib posted:Am I misunderstanding or are they saying that if you participate in matchmaking hunts, helping other players hunt their targeted monsters -- even ones other than the monster you need parts from -- you'll still get parts for that goal? I don't really understand how the crafting/resource system works in the game but I do like the idea of making non-goal hunts feel worthwhile and spreading the gameplay around through it. It sounded like there are parts that drop from multiple monsters and then some unique parts from specific monsters.

Bananasaurus Rex posted:In Gen there were two arts that when combined let you stay in sword mode indefinitely, and another that buffed sword damage. So it made no sense to ever switch back to axe. Which is silly because the weapon is called switch axe. They changed up those two arts in XX so that's no longer possible right? Also that is the best kind of balancing.

No one cares about Dauntless, go make a thread (and title it that). I think I'm gonna SA and CB this time, though of course there will be a steady staple of Hammers because how can you not hammer?

I love switch axe but I've always wondered why it wasn't a more fluid weapon with more moves that transitioned between axe and sword mode. Just have sword mode build through axe mode hits and possibly have something like an overheat mechanic if you hit maximum bar, or optimal range would be a green area in the center of the bar so you'd be rewarded for building to a certain point and then doing combos that rotated between axe and sword mode.

Agreed, and the CB kinda illustrates how in some ways the SA was design training wheels for them, but also kinda puts the SA to shame with just how much poo poo you can do with it. That said, the SA has always shat out more consistent damage than the CB when used properly.

Your reward is doing a status effect blast in a dino's face. Are people not using that because it switches you to axe mode? Always be blasting. I play like 50-50 each mode and status blast a lot so I'm always switching back and forth. The fact that theres now an incentive meter to stay in sword mode longer before doing the blast makes me think other people aren't playing like the goon hivemind decided switchaxe should be played.

empathe posted:It sounded like there are parts that drop from multiple monsters and then some unique parts from specific monsters. From what I understand, there are patrol hunts and specific hunts. Monsters in a given patrol tier drop generic parts for that tier as well as their own parts. It also looks like they've moved to a system where all the parts drop like MH shinies instead of being autocollected at the end of the hunt. Where it gets kind of interesting is that if you queue for a specific hunt it can pull in people patrolling too, hopefully this gives a bigger base of random players to help fill in less popular Behemoth hunts. I'm not sure how you get specific hunts though. Maybe unlocked via quest or you have to spend tokens earned by patrolling? 7c Nickel fucked around with this message at 22:21 on Dec 7, 2017 |
