Stardroid Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2017/12/15/monster-hunter-world-beta-returns-december-22-without-playstation-plus-requirement.aspx "Following the successful Monster Hunter World beta earlier this month, Capcom is bringing the beta back for another go-round, this time without a PlayStation Plus subscription acting as a gatekeeper. The new beta runs from December 22 through December 26. The previous beta required PlayStation Plus to access the game at all, single player or multiplayer, but the upcoming one lets players without a subscription access the single player missions. Multiplayer, like all PlayStation 4 games, still requires PS+. If you downloaded the original beta, you don't even need to download a new client, as the old one works. The content is identical from last weekend, so don't expect new monsters to hunt or new missions. The beta is once again exclusive to PlayStation 4, despite there being Xbox One and PC versions announced for the game. Both Xbox One and PlayStation 4 editions of the game launch on January 26, while the PC version has an indefinite date sometime in 2018." ________________________ Personally, I wasn't impressed by the early beta at all. I thought the combat was pretty bad for a combat focussed game. Hopefully some small tweaks can be found in the second beta. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yadilie Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 This is shaping up to be the best game in the series. Lots of QoL changes that'll help new players get in easier and alleviate things for veterans players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edunstar84 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 That's great news! I haven't picked up a subscription yet. I do plan to have one in the near future. But now I get to try a bit for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightGethen Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Played the Beta, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Played MH3U on Handheld. Really all it needs to improve on is to allow for custom button layouts and also allow for inviting friends. Typing in a long, cap sensitive code was kind of tedious. 5 hours ago, Starlove- said: Personally, I wasn't impressed by the early beta at all. I thought the combat was pretty bad for a combat focussed game. Hopefully some small tweaks can be found in the second beta. Monster Hunters combat has essentially remained unchanged for some time with new additions here, and there of course. Don't get your hopes up. Combat wise, I think we've seen the finished product. The only thing I can see them doing is MAYBE buff the Greatsword. It seems it's damage doesn't hold up to the other weapons. Most of the weapons have more DPS. I felt the GS just didn't cut it (pun intended). Monster Hunter isn't for everyone. I recommend trying some of the ranged weaponry if you don't like the melee weapons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waffle-Sensei Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 The beta was great, I've never really looked forward to a MH game much before this one. Glad they're opening it up to more people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed - One bit of good news is that the invite code system is not going to be part of the final release, it'll be much easier to play together later.

I think if you go in expecting the pace of a game like say, Horizon or a twitchier kind of combat, you might not enjoy these games as much. Monster Hunter looks like it should be super quick and reactive, but in reality it's a slower game that requires planning and method. It's possible to put hundreds and hundreds of hours into a full MH game, so if you still want to like it and you have the time to do so - I recommend putting 10 - 20 hours in to get used to the combat style and the overall flow of the game. I hated my first MH game back in the day and ended up picking it up and putting it down a few times, then something clicked I guess and it's still now one of my favourite gaming franchises of all time. Really hope you end up enjoying it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Finally got lucky enough to find Pukei-Pukei, couldn’t find him after hours of trying in the first beta. With that off my bucket list i’ve now killed every single monster that can spawn in the beta. You’ll have to take this poor quality picture i took with my phone though, i keep forgetting that share button is a thing lol. Now all that’s left to do is for me to decide on a weapon to use in the final game. Feeling lance right now but i’m very indecisive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see them getting pretty sadistic with the Trophy list. Lost Planet 2's is pretty sadistic...You gotta get number 1 on the online leader boards. It's a 0.13% platinum. It's my dream platinum. I got my 4 friends to get a copy of Lost Planet so we may have a chance. A very slim chance.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they refresh the leaderboards every so often so I think it may be possible if you do it right when they refresh. But I could be wrong.
