No e this far.

I think my bottleneck is my cpu am non overclocked I5 3570k
I assume it is, I have a Gsync monitor and turned off in-game Vsync, I don't see any tearing.
So as a longtime MH veteran since the PS2 days (though I didnt play religiously until PSP since the PS2 one was pretty bad to me), why the heck are people complaining about casualization?
I mean, it's Monster Hunter, it really hasn't changed much outside of being less clunky and the scoutflies (which shouldnt be a complaint), among other fairly minor things.
This is about as perfect as a game can get to pleasing oldschool fans while changing enough to gain new fans and it works wonderfully.
I'm not saying I like or dislike the game yet since I am still a bit wary on the bare bones content by series standards, but the complaints I've been hearing about casualization are so wrong.

Made it to Barroth before I got rocked last night. I haven't played a MH since PSP and this is a big improvement. It runs really nice for me. But the textures are pretty bad and overall image quality seems too soft no matter what I do.
Thanks. I had planned not to double dip on this. Now I'm feeling the itch!
Yes.
Charge Blade and
The hunting horn is very unpopular but is the best support weapon in the game.

Nice. I was slightly ticked that it didn't default to PS4 button prompts. : p
Played about 8 hours yesterday, damn. I'm really enjoying it compared to my time put into Dauntless, also super pleased with how the game runs.
I have a 1050Ti and an i54440, so cpu below the minimums haha. Left the settings on mid and turned off volume rendering, game is extremely playable like that. I might try bumping it up to low and messing with some other settings.
Started out with Lance and had to look up multiple videos and guides before someone finally said how to power guard. Beat up to pukei but spent a lot of time just practicing against kula and messing around with great sword against great jagras. The lance charge is so damn fun.

99% of the streamlining changes have been great and they have done a good job making it more accessible without losing depth but I have one complain that, after 200 hours of gameplay my opinion of it didnt change and its that of moving/sprinting while drinking. A lot of people tried to dismiss this concern before launch by saying the AI is more aggressive to compensate but I find the AI patterns the same as previous games and if anything less aggressive (lack of grank, virus monsters or deviant monsters as well). In my opinion healing is way less skill intensive than it was previously when you're being efficient (healing in between attacks and not running away in another zone). Some monsters like enraged gold rathian in grank you really had to perfectly know that one opening where you were safe drinking and time it as soon as you saw the tell of that attack. In MHW you can just sprint dodge around the monster no matter what.

It's an NPC called First Wyverian. I think they can be found in various maps when you're in Expedition Mode.
I did get it working but not from that, though now that I know that I'll be sure to turn special K off if it's on. I got it working by running stream and world both in admin mode. Thanks for the reply though, I was getting pretty triggered.
Yo. Hunting Horn main here. Last place is insanity. HH buffs, it heals, it KOs, great reach, it deals great damage. You look like a boss when you KO that monster, spin around and buff/heal your party all with 1 movement. People LOVE you when they see you in party. Yeah it's a harder weapon to master, but possibly the most rewarding when you do!
Do you like infinite stamina?
Do you like free hearing, tremor, and blight protection?
Do you like healing your entire party while attacking at the same time?
Do you like fighting with a giant electric guitar?
Go HH.
i started using HH yesterday and as someone who plays a lot of support in other games/mmo i was really into it.
What is confusing? The core of MH is here, just minus many of the oddities that have held into for years.
For example, I don't really get how the guide bug thingo works -- sometimes it highlights stuff, sometimes it doesn't. There are so many things to upgrade like individual monster tracking levels. Then you have all those collection (mini-) quests, limited quests, quests constantly being posted by strangers while you're playing on your own. You'll get new targets mid-quest. Weapon movesets got more complex. Alpha and Beta armor. The map can be a bit difficult to read because it's multi-layered she there are tons of symbols constantly showing. And other stuff I can't think of at the top of my head. I'm only like five hours in and I feel like my brain is melting.
It's just a lot to take in. I played enough of the older games that they made sense to me. Maybe this is how people who never played MH before experienced the older ones too, hah.
Less chosen? Go with Sword and Shield. It looks a bit tame but it's surprisingly fun to play. Being able to throw and use items while keeping your weapon out is a completely underrated feature.
Don't know about GSync, but with FreeSync, it works in borderless window mode, but not exclusive fullscreen. The driver notes say it just doesn't work, which isn't the case obviously.

I see what you mean. The big issue was that some thought World might dumb down the overall MH feel but they certainly added a layer of complexity that needs explaining.
I'm getting really inconsistent reports and experience with this tip going around.
Performance on my end improved after upgrading to 398.82, and there are others who have reported the same thing.
It's likely related to what GPU is being used. Everyone I've seen who said performance improved with 398.82 all said they were using a GTX 970, as am I.
Installed this morning. I was about HR 80 in the PS4 version, and can't wait to grind out to end game again. Is there an ERA squad on Steam?
I'm surprised gunlance is so low. Is it bad in this game?
Same with heavy bowgun. I've been using it and it just deals so much damage.
I'm usually a Hammer, Long Sword and Bow main. I'm going to try something different in this one, Probably the Switch Axe and the Gunlance.
After trying all of the weapons in the training room, I chose the insect glaive and I'm absolutely loving it. I feel like such an agile badass dancing through the air by constantly chaining together aerial attacks while the monsters below have no anti-air. I've been opening with the insect splatter (LT+RT, hits where you're aiming) that sends your insect to attack and leave behind a cloud that you can hit for a special effect AND also gets you the insect buff all at the same time. I follow this up by vaulting into the cloud with the spinning aerial attack for some kind of explosion and a beginning to my aerial assault. I can't really see any reason to use the other insect commands unless perhaps you're running away and can't stop to fire the splatter. I've also really liked the mounting mechanic so far, but I'm not exactly sure what triggers it. It just seems to randomly happen as I attack it from above. Anyone have more insight on what actually triggers mounting?
Really enjoying the early game so far! So much stuff to collect, tracks to find, monsters fighting other monsters (I had the Pukei-Pukei start attacking the Great Jagras as I was fighting it!), and pretty sweet feeling combat! As a first time MH player, it's feeling like a much more polished and content-rich Vindictus.
Edit: Playing with a DS4 controller. My computer is a Core i5 4690K at stock, GTX 1070, 8 GB of RAM. I'm running it at 1440p with almost everything maxed except for volume rendering (med), SH (med), and using FXAA because I prefer the look over TXAA. Getting about 50 fps average in Asteria and anywhere between 40-60 in the first hunting ground depending on the weather where a rain storm brought it down to 40'ish.

Are there any of the advanced settings that will lessen the cpu usage? This thing is running my laptop like an oven
Anyone wanna farm Anjanath a bit? I just need to get a plate to drop and it takes me like 20min to do it solo lol.
Aah fuck. I was thinking about maining HH after being loyal to Dual Blades in MHFU, but this just solidifies that.
I only have outdated knowledge, but honestly, I'm not surprised. The weapon's all utility, it isn't big, fast, flashy or complex. It isn't a judgment about the weapon choice's usefulness, just the "cool" factor.
It's single slash attack makes solo farming with it a bit of a pain in the arse
Its more due to the fact that its not user friendly, slow to handle and move around with hops instead of rolling but its very good that you can nearly get a near sub 2 min against nergigante. Gunlance and Lance are right up there in fast kill times. Same with HBG, HBG cluster has the fastest kill times among the 14 class weapons.
There's a hidden cool down for mounted attacks, I think damage affects it and not time I forget. You're not using insect recall? Are you not trying to get your 3 buffs asap? I used the insect shoot/recall constantly, only after I got my buffs would I splatter.
I was an HH main on console...just so fucking fun. It's very user friendly too. Soloed the entire game iwth it no problem.
