I don't play Monster Hunter Frontier yet (waiting for my SD2Vita to arrive from China...). I have a question about MH Frontier Z. Besides the monsters in the video, is it possible to play with other original monsters from the main games? Like Nargacuga, Yan Kut-Ku, or Zinogre?
yeah it is, all monsters from Monster Hunter Dos were in Frontier, plus a few others called exotic monsters, like Zinogre, Uragaan, Gore Magala and Shagaru.
I was surprised at the lack of information available about dos pvp, at least on YT there were a couple of videos, but most of them were from over 15 years ago, making it hard to tell what the hell was going on in the video lol.
A compilation remaster of FU, 3U and 4U would be sick! Those are the only games I can see getting a remaster though, I don’t think dos is going to get a remaster tho, it seems pretty unlikely tbh
I am really hoping that an older game compilation will be announced later this year as part of the 20th anniversary. But odds are it wouldn't happen until after Wilds at the earliest.
yeah, I mean, they will even remaster stories 1 to the point where they even add voice lines to all the story and everything. And stories is a much smaller spin off franchise. Also with 3U, 4U and Generations for 3DS all shutting down in 5 days, this would be the ideal time to bring them to PC and modern consoles. I would say 3U and 4U have the highest chances (Generations would be redundant with GenU already being available), followed by Freedom and Freedom Unite to represent the first 2 generations (they would just need to add online coop functionality for those). And lastly getting an official english version of Dos and 3rd Portable through a remaster would be amazing but it's pretty unlikely.
Thanks man :) This one was a long time in the making tbh getting all the footage was rough as I had to get through all of 4U, as I hadn't beaten it before making the video
Having killed all of the origional squad of gen 2 elders in dos i found there easier or harder depending on the monster. Kushala is definelty the easiest when compqred to freedom unite. The wind barrier means you can get near it unless its attacking or you have poisoned it and because dragon weapons are able to be obtained after slaying kushala so you either go in with a status like poison or nothing at all. Lunastra practically requires poison before you get a dragon weapon and your going to struggle, insta charges being your worst enemy in tbat fight. The crest can only be broken with dragon like in all the gen 2 games so chances are your not getting rid of the flame barrier. What i found when fighting it is that if you sit behind its legs when its doing anything that isnt a flame attack you can get lots of hits in, if its doing a flame attack you can very easily hit the head Teostra (or as i call it toaster, like its a massive coincidence that it can even be rearranged to toaster lmao) but same applies from lunastra but by this time chances are youll have a dragon weapon so you can break teostras head. For chameleos not much really chnages, just pray you can hit the head, dont get items stolen and if you cant find ig when its paintball is gone your basically fucked if you dont have smoke bombs lol Good video bro. I love second gen so seeing this vid is really cool and has given me info on atuff i havent fought in gen 2 yet (rusted and yama lol)
1k subscribers? that will not last long wow, i have been absolutely loving these videos, keep it up friend :) currently downloading frontier while i watch this one :>
people who say that Dah'ren Mohran is the same as Jhen Mohran don't realize that Jhen doesn't tilt the boat with it's attacks and doesn't fire a giant spear from it's blowhole.
@@TooMuchCarbs Japan has a different release timeline to the western Monster Hunter games. The games weren't nearly as popular in the west as they were in Japan. So certain Monster hunter games are exclusive to Japan. In the case of MHX and XX they are just different name choices, they are the exact same games as Monster Hunter generations and MH generations ultimate but with a different name.
Something strange they did with Crimson Fatalis throughout second generation, is that in Dos they changed his Armor Mode (Rage Mode) From MHF1 to be the same as White Fatalis' Armor mode (begins at 50% HP and lasts until 20% HP), then in MHF2 they changed him back to his MHF1 implementation (Armor Mode = Rage Mode).
Another method of removing Chameleos' invisibility in 2nd and 4th gen games is to throw a sonic bomb during it's attack animations. This will cause it to flinch and reveal it for a period of time (MHF2/MHFU onwards only, in Dos it will only be revealed for the duration of its flinch animation). This can also be achieved with properly timed Barrel Bombs or the Hunting Horn's Triple-Yellow Sonic notes.
What I *adore* about this fight more than anything is both the personality shown and contrast to Disufiroa, its rival. The fact that Shantien doesn’t notice you nor doesn’t take the fight seriously until later phases start pushing it shows how it feels about you-nothing but below it. And with the final phase turning into what was a pretty standard hunt into a test of survival is fitting. Shantien rarely uses fire, so of course its fire attacks, while deadly, are underdeveloped. If it weren’t for the combination of the hunter injuring it and the inexperience, that last big attack would’ve likely killed the hunter. The music growing more and more intense, adding more instrumentation, shows that growing resentment. In contrast to it is Disufiroa. Dude comes out swinging, using its strongest attack as soon as the fight begins, and the music is at its most intense. As the fight progresses, while still dangerous, it doesn’t go in swinging as much as it did to begin with, with the second and third phase themes becoming slower, later taking away instruments in the third part. Idk it’s something I noticed and really came to appreciate from a lore perspective and music perspective. Really shows the love and care put into making Shantien.
Yeah, when I started Part 3, I knew I'd need to play all the games in Gen 3 to fight every elder and be as accurate as possible. When I stick all the 'parts' together, I plan to revise some parts of MH1 and Dos, as I have engaged more with Dos online and am more familar with the information I omitted from the last 2 parts. I'm still not 100% convinced on whether I'll play MH1 or MHG all the way through, but I'll make an effort for Dos as I've set up the online and am playing through it, and I really think it is a unique MH game in its own right.
Your movement underwater is also just slow and clunky in general. Lagiacrus underwater is easily one of my least favorite fights due to how fast and big his moves are, it doesn't feel like it was made for the state of underwater combat at all.
Me too, hopefully he does but I think from Frontier's roster Inagami or a frontier original monster that isn't an elder is more likely. Still I hope they bring some Frontier original monsters into Wilds
a couple notes: fatalis's AI was changed (some say broken) between mh1 and mhg, which made a safe spot behind his legs - the mh1 version (where he is tbe final boss) is definitely harder in terms of monster movement and lethality and the term elder dragon first crops up in mh2, i don't know if you mention it there, just thought it might be interesting to mention the monsters weren't so thoroughly classified at this point in the series.
i personally have warmed up to lao shan lung the more n more i fought him, i imagined it kind of like a early gen "cinematic fight" as the atmosphere can be incredibly epic and compelling. his theme is pretty cool too! Cool video keep it up
I've recently beat FU so now I've officially done all elders (except the risen elders in Rise, but I don't really like Rise enough much to grind to the necessary MR to fight them). I've got to say gen1/2 fatalis sucked so much, Lao was kinda boring but you could at least turn your brain off for that fight, but the fatalis trio does so much damage that despite being extremely boring you actually have to pay attention, and the high hp means that soloing them will take multiple quests. Gen 4 fatalis/miralis (Dire miralis is basically gen 3 fatalis tell me the two aren't practically identical) are significant improvements and very fun fights. Going back to second gen really makes me appreciate how 4U improved much of the old monster roster and gave most of the gen1/2 guys a much needed fresh coat of paint.
