The longsword primarily has slow attacks until you get that combo meter powered up so it is nothing like the S+S.

Lance is too slow be be a comfortable transition for S+S players but I see where the similarities lay.

SO I got Monster Hunter Tri AND Galaxy 2 today, so torn.

Stratos · « **Reply #627 on:** May 25, 2010, 10:55:54 PM »

You should join us tonight with Tri since it IS the official day we meet up to play so a lot of us are on. Plus I won't get Galaxy until later this week in the mail...and it makes me sad...

Can you play online without having to play any single player first?

You make your character, save, and can go straight online, I believe.

WHo said this game has average visuals? I think it looks great, very impressed so far! BTW how do I go online? is it the arena?

Edit: Nevermind found it, now how do I find you guys?

Which weapon do you use most often?

Lance, then bowgun, then switch-axe. The rest are equally underutilized due to lack of skill.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #633 on:** May 26, 2010, 01:02:15 PM »

I'm almost entirely focused on the switch axe because it seems to me like the best weapon for getting damaging hits in quickly while an opening is available and then hauling ass out of there.

Who HAS said the game has average visuals? In fact, the graphics are probably the one thing I haven't seen anyone complain about.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #635 on:** May 27, 2010, 02:28:27 AM »

I think The Escapist complained about that but that publication is a piece of industry saliva licking **** anyway.

Stratos · « **Reply #636 on:** May 27, 2010, 04:21:06 AM »

No one remembers the people complaining about the resolutions and such? Pro was one of the people complaining.

It's nice, but there is better. Galaxy for one. I'd have to play RE4 again to check but I think that beats Tri as well. It is one of the prettier games and one of the better looking 3rd party titles.

Mop it up · « **Reply #637 on:** May 27, 2010, 04:29:07 AM »

I thought it was only the demo that ran at a lower resolution?

Stratos · « **Reply #638 on:** May 27, 2010, 04:34:53 AM »

Maybe that was why the complaining stopped almost at the same time the game launched?

Mop it up · « **Reply #639 on:** May 27, 2010, 04:53:36 AM »

Are you asking me or do you know if what I said is the case?

Stratos · « **Reply #640 on:** May 27, 2010, 05:00:52 AM »

I was more thinking out loud.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #641 on:** May 27, 2010, 05:03:24 AM »

Well the main issue with the visuals is that it doesn't fill my LCD screen. Besides that, I think they are great and it has really great animations.

Sundoulos · « **Reply #642 on:** May 27, 2010, 07:40:49 AM »

Well, to be fair, I complained about the visuals only because I had trouble reading the text when it was small white letters on a black background. I still only have a standard definition television (because I am cheap), so that probably made the difference. Once I finally found the option to change the aspect ratio in game, it was no longer a problem.

Other than that, I think the game's environments are pretty beautiful, especially when it's depicting a starry night.

Caliban · « **Reply #643 on:** May 27, 2010, 10:11:50 AM »

I complained about the fact that widescreen mode looks horrible, HORRIBLE.

Mop it up · « **Reply #644 on:** May 27, 2010, 07:35:34 PM »

I forgot about the widescreen issue since I don't have a widescreen television, but that's true. The resolution is 480p though, I looked it up to see if that was correct.

The small text is pretty annoying. I sometimes can't tell the difference between an "o" and an "e."

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #645 on:** June 05, 2010, 05:08:05 AM »

Well I picked this up a few days ago. The visuals are nice. I have beaten the one star quests and I have a decent weapon. I am using the Sword and shield. I upgraded it I think 4 times. I have my main armor I believe upgraded 3 times. Other parts of the armor I have upgraded once.

Sundoulos · « **Reply #646 on:** June 05, 2010, 09:33:08 AM »

Join us on-line sometime soon, Maxi!

Stratos · « **Reply #647 on:** June 05, 2010, 11:48:55 PM »

Yes, Maxi, hurry and come online. We're on now if you'd care to join us.

Royal Rhino 200z
Ripened Mushroom 250z

Stratos · « **Reply #649 on:** June 08, 2010, 09:32:17 PM »

Wow. I've been wondering about those as well, Mop it up, thanks!

This will also help with my storage problems by clearing up slots for more important items.

Does anyone know when you start getting advanced materials in the single player or do you only get stuff like carbalite and '+' monster material in the online mode?
