Monster Hunter World : Iceborne Gamescom 2019 Trailer
- Thread starter roflwaffles
- Start date
The Glavenus sub species looks badass and WTF is that thing at the end???? I'm so excited for this!! It's going to be so great battling these monsters via World's game play. The turf war animations look incredibly cool too.
Honestly nobody is going to know until the game is out. I was initially going to go media black out but in the end I realized I don't play MH for the monster reveals or story to it anyway. I'd say if you really want to go in with a clean slate don't watch this trailer however you've probably already seen the elder dragon design just scrolling through the topic.

MH isn't really a spoiler centric franchise - the story is basically nonexistent and only an excuse to kill monsters and wear their skin as armor.
I was hoping this new Elder would be more Cthulu-like but I like the design! Reminds me of a dragon Ebrietas.

How beginner friendly is this game atm? Kinda want to get into, but have no friends to play it with so I'd have to rely on randoms. Having to go through the base game before Iceborne is kind of daunting.
Agreed. However for me I don't even know what's new besides new hub, moves, monsters and clutch claw. I've been avoiding detailed videos and articles. Going in Iceborne blind.
MHW is the most beginner friendly Monster Hunter game ever made.
I have this downloaded through game pass but have not yet started.
Is it too late to get into this? And roughly how long would it take me to level up sufficiently?
Thanks for the answers

No, the guardian set is meant for players that are new to the base version of world, and want to get their HR over 16. According to the video, it will have notably high defense plus some defensive skills to improve player survivability. It will lose revelevancy upon reaching iceborne, but for everything before it seems like a good defensive set
You have to clear the main story to start doing the Iceborne content. Also, Iceborne content is going to be master rank with a difficulty spike comparable to the difference between low rank and high rank. The Guardian armor set is high rank, so it'll probably be acceptable for early master rank monsters, then fall off very quickly and you'll need to craft master rank armor.
With a name like that, im slightly disappointed it doesnt have blue octahedron shape
Looks awesome
Really good changes to the temporal mantle. Ever since they introduced that thing is was far and away the best mantle. Now that it has a finite number of uses by decreasing it's time each use I might actually equip other mantles again.
It will probably take you around 30 hours to complete the story. If you wait until Iceborne it will be even faster with that guardian set and the hunter helper system.
Never too late.
With so many good QoL changes, MHW is the best place to start. I would suggest starting the game and heading into the training zone to play with all the weapon types till you found what you like.
The game is really fun coop but could can still Solo a huge chunk of the game and solo is the best way to learn the weapons.
Yes, if you help someone in Low or High rank while in Master rank you get rewards such as wyverian prints and the new pendants (cosmetic danglers for weapons)
Ah nice. That's a great feature. They really put a lot of stuff into iceborne.
-Tweaked the effect length of monster roars and tremors on players.
They say this and don't mention which direction it went in. I don't think it's possible to make the tremor animation even longer than it already is, but who knows!
This Guardian A armor is pretty good for new players. I guess in a game where you can't buy stats or level boosts, this is the best way to get someone to HR 16 fast.
Of note though, it doesn't come with any attack boosts. The game still expects players to grind for weapons, which I think is a nice compromise.
If the Flash Pod nerf was in effect during the Beta (which I'm 99% sure it was) then it's not too terrible. It really just means that when a monster's enraged you can't flash them.
Which sucked for Rathalos, but the fight was still totally winnable. It just wasn't a curbstomp like it is now. It's much better than the current system for Tempered monsters with "You get 3 flash pods and that's it."
Its actually an improvement
Before this when monsters were given immunity it wouldnt reset at all (tempered and arch tempered)
Now over the course of a long hunt flash immunity will eventually wear off which is a buff over the old endgame setup
"Monster dung will be generated from a location between the monster's legs. "
Hmm...
They actually went and nerfed weakness exploit, flash bombs, temporal mantle, and the longsword and a few other skills that I always use like non elemental boost for my divine slasher. They basically killed my build lol.
Looks like Iceborne is going to be tough and I love it.

That'll still be present in Iceborne. But I think they mentioned that the cutscenes will be shorter.
