Pre-Release Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak - Pre-release Discussion Thread

[Ahmed]

I think maybe they have a deal with Nintendo, and they did the survey to try to prove them that support for crossplay/saves is something that the player base wants but it didn’t go as planned

I don't think that's likely, since Nintendo is okay with having cross-saves/play with other games. Especially cross-play shouldn't be an issue, since there are so many games on Switch that support it.

I really want to see Seltas Queen again.

I can’t believe I never fought her in MH4U while my friends lent me their 3DS.

Did fight her husband though.

So yeah, need both of them in Sunbreak.

Which monster would you like that isn't a shoe-in (like Deviljho, for example)

This is my MH3 nostalgia speaking, but I'd like Lagiacrus. They got the leviathan skeleton down already. I understand that Laggy lost a lot by the removal of underwater stuff, but I think Capcom could feasibly shake it up with the sea dragon.

4th gen is my fave gen, and it's reaaaaaaaaaaaallly hard to choose just one.

But since Seltas Queen has already been mentioned...gimme back Gore. Can't really take anything for granted, since it seems they're content to hold the Magalas back for the time being.

On a sillier note? I would like to see Great Maccao come back. He and G. Izuchi are, in my opinion, the only "early game raptors" that are actually pretty fun.

Great Maccao

That's a good choice! Hadn't thought about it at all, but yeah, enjoyed Maccao a lot in MHG(U). Gore is also a good pick.

I'd love to see Gigginox make a return as well, alas...

Welp, downloaded the PC demo for Rise, booted it up, did go through the setup, everything working fine. Once I entered the Izuchi quest, the controls started bugging out for my Switch Pro Controller, with inputs changing between the face buttons randomly, lmao. At first I could draw my LS on X, then suddenly on B?! of all things. xD
Really weird behaviour. Quit the demo, tried booting it up again after messing with the Steam Input settings for a bit -> crashes all the time now. Ooops. Either I broke something or the demo's a bit messy overall.

I tried my Switch Pro Controller wired and had zero problems. Game runs well on my potato PC in 1080p. Sad that there are no Switch controller icons... ;(

Yeah, I think I had messed something up on my end -- been toying around with the Pro Con inputs too much it seems, haha. Resetting and changing them to the Xbox layout functionality solved my issues.
