I think it's entirely justified by how big this game is content-wise. It's bigger than World will likely ever be and then some.

Will Capcom update Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate (Switch) to support voice chat?

There is no way Capcom spends the time/money on doing this.
You'll just have to get Discord going w/your friends.

Do you have a source for that? The website just lists this for Splatoon, and only through the app.
Why won't you be playing with JP players?
On the PS4 you can find them quite often in multiplayer so I'd be surprised if it was turned off for switch.
Also, FPS shouldn't affect "crossplay" I think.
IIRC World is the first MH game with cross-region play. So it's more like it being turned on for World rather than being turned off for this game.
60fps would be amazing, though. MH4U has an unlocked framerate and uses the same engine, so it should be theoretically possible to patch it into this.
Before MonHunWorld, usa/europe players were put on different servers from the japanese players because of some quest and weapons being unavailible in the western release. This still applies to Generations Ultimate
The localizations for the previous games split the player base between Japan and the west, due to the various promotional quests in Japan that can't get licensed for use overseas. Some of those items and equipment pieces even undergo full-on model changes that keep the functionality but remove all traces of their source material. MHW is the first game that hasn't done that, but it also hasn't done any big tie-ins to non-gaming items, aside from the usual USJ event.
I see, I didn't know that.
The switch version is probably more geared to face to face play anyway where one hooks up and play via wifi link.
I don't think that's right. I remember playing with Japanese dudes at night when playing 4U.
You must remember incorrectly to be honest, as 4U definitely split the servers between West and Japan. Either that or these Japanese players had the western version for whatever reason. Or you had the Japanese one? What 4U was the first game to do was merging Europe and America into one Wstern server - 3U was three regions, three servers.
No, I had one I bought from GameStop in NYC. I do remember playing with some guys and their names were kanji.
Well this will be my first Monster Hunter game, is the community beginner user friendly anyway that I'd want voice chat, or would it be normal internet experiences with everyone shitting on me?
3U was patched to unite the servers for NA and EU a month or so after the game launched.
I'm talking about the app, yes. On September it will be open for any game that supports it. That's been the plan since it was announced, it being Splatoon-only was only for the beta period.
The app will be the official voice chat solution in the SDK just like party chat is in the other consoles.
Yes it does. Epic isn't doing anything, other than using an SDK function that was recently available to developers
The game runs at 30 FPS in Japan because the game has Cross Play with the Japanese 3DS version that also runs at 30 FPS so the hope is that we get the game updated to 60 FPS here in the West since the 3DS version isn't being brought over to the West therefore we wont get any cross play with any 3DS version so the "excuse" to lock the game to 30 FPS is gone and there shouldn't be any good reason why they couldn't get a simple upscaled 3DS game to run at 60 FPS on the Switch Hardware.
Hardly. Threads related to Capcom and Switch are just super predictable around here.
Because we wouldn't need to be having this conversation if the Switch supported system level party chat like every other modern gaming device does. The OS can certainly support it, but Nintendo gonna Nintendo.
That doesn't mean anything. MH4G and MH4U are different SKUs due to licensing issue like Ridley27 explained. World is the first MH gane with worldwide matchmaking.
On-topic: I highly doubt it but I'd really like the option to use text chat during hunts instead of only in the hub.
I doubt that. They need to use their own voice codec so they can have proper cross-chat.
I think with old games like MHGU they arent going to update the online features for switch.
I doubt Dark Souls is getting voice chat either, so I dont know why people are giving capcom shit over it.
When they make an actual Switch Monster hunter I would expect it to be there, since this is just an uprezzed 3DS game.

Capcom couldn't even be bothered to make a game select screen that would allow them to put both of the Mega Man Legacy Collections on one cartridge.
So no.
So no.
That's not how it works...the Switch has a DMIC (Digital Mic Controller) built into the Tegra X1 chip. People have hacked Splatoon 2 and found it to support voice control. The HW natively supports voice control, it just doesn't have a built in mic
I'd personally say we're lucky that we're even getting this at all. Feeling entitled for voicechat is kinda pushing it. Personally I don't really need it. It's cool if there is but it's definitely not a dealbreaker for me. I second using discord if you really are clamoring for vc.
No hacking involved. Its enabled be on lan matches on the base game.
You keep saying that, but I'm not quite sure you know what it means.
On-topic, probably not. If I recall, native voice chat was a recent addition to the dev kits, unless I'm mistaken.
Doesn't seem like like native voice chat will be possible unless Capcom wants to put in work. And I have my doubts Capcom wants to put in any extra work outside of localization.
5.0 SDK supports native voice chat (like Fortnite does) but needs extra steps and the devs need to add it.
If the "rumor" from a thread hear a few weeks ago is true.
