Topic: NWR Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Thread

[Stratos]

Well, I can't play when I am at work. I can only troll around on the interwebs. I might have time tonight though. I'll have to double check that I added you.

[ejamer]

Finally picked up the game due to a drop in price and increase in free time. Will definitely be looking to get online over the next couple of weeks after getting my feet wet again.


Is anyone still playing? Especially anyone who might still be at low levels, since I'll be playing catch-up for a while?


Played a good amount of Tri, although that doesn't mean that I ever played well. Remember some good times hunting with NWR users and thought it worth posting to see if the same crew are still around. 

[Stratos]

I still consider myself an active player even though I don't play as much as I used to. Let me know and I will be more than happy to hunt with you. I'm through G Rank but have no problem going back to lower quests to help.

[pokepal148]

I'm still in the 6 star quests, let me know when you get there so I can join in.

[Stratos]

I'm sure we can get Mop it up to join us and that would make 4!

[Stratos]

So anyone interested in playing sometime soon? I'm itching to get back on the hunt.

[Oblivion]

I really want to play the game again, but I can't stand playing the game solo, so I'm definitely interested.

[Stratos]

I may be able to play Friday night after 5PM Pacific. Who wants to play then?


Welcome back by the way, Oblivion.

[ejamer]

Friday won't work for me - it's date night. (yay!)  But I'm getting really excited about it, especially since there seem to be a bunch of forums people interested in playing again.


That said, I'm probably about a week away from feeling comfortable enough to play online. Right now I'd be carting so fast that it would be a waste of time for everyone. But things are starting to come back and I'm trying to dedicate a little bit of time each day to the game. Having a long weekend coming up should help too.
 

[Stratos]

Don't be worried about failing. We can support each other as a group and I carry the group healing powders when I am with weaker players. I don't mind if you cart out, that is part of learning.


I don't even mind doing all the work while you wander off and gather important material and then run in for the carves at the end. Makes me feel helpful Plus it gives me a chance to experiment with alternative weapons and armor layouts safely.

[Oblivion]

Friday might work. I'll just have to record Korra.

And thanks Stratos.

[pokepal148]

I'm working Friday. Don't know if it will work

[Stratos]

Just let me know if you have any free nights and I will see what I can do. This depends on my homework load of course but I think this quarter I can get it all done earlier in the day.

[pokepal148]

I'm on now, I also have friend requests sent (now taking bets on whether or not mop_it_up will accept the one she's had for the past month from me, she has 7 days.)

[Stratos]

Did you send the request in Miiverse? Does she know it is you?


I'm at work but I will be off and home in about two hours. Though, I don't have my keyboard so I won't be talking much. Guess I could turn on the mic.

[Stratos]

I'm having trouble getting on the wifi for the house I am house-sitting so I may be unable to play for a bit. I'll work on it again tonight and see how far I can get.

[ejamer]

So I'm off work until Wednesday and should be available just about any night starting around 8 or 8:30pm Eastern time.  That said, I've just started with the game so don't have any weapon upgrades yet and am still bumming around on 1-star quests.  So don't expect much productivity from me this week if we join up.


I'll be checking this thread daily to see if anyone is coming online.


In the meantime, two questions:
1.  Should I be adding people from this thread to my friends list?  What is the best way to go about doing that (since I normally don't game online).
2.  How do people usually communicate? Should I hook up my wireless keyboard again or use a headset?

[Stratos]

I prefer the keyboard because the mic disrupts my wife's work on the computer. But I'm not opposed to using the mic.


If you add people through Miiverse they will get a notification that you have added them.


I think I determined the correct password for the wifi at the house we are sitting so I will give it another go tonight.


Do you have any weapon or armor goals?

[pokepal148]

actually I believe the friends list gets notifications now.

[ejamer]

Should be playing tonight, so if anyone wants to go online drop me a line. No special goal - I need everything - so just trying to power through early levels.

Is hunting horn fun? Support roles and ranged combat are typically appealing, seems like this would be worth trying.

I enjoyed the Hunting Horn.  In fact the right hunting horn can make some Monsters feel trivial.  Its a lot like Hammer.

[Stratos]

I'm a few hours. Depending on how I feel I could hop on for a bit. Though I have not been sleeping well lately in the house we are watching so I might turn in early.

[ejamer]

Stratos: let me know if you get my friend request? It was sent through the Friend List app, and I want to know if you get a notification that way or not.  Thanks!


So feel comfortable enough to get online now. I haven't done anything for armor upgrades, and am only carrying a slightly upgraded starting bow... but at least the controls have come back to me.  Will be adding people to my friends list - anyone interested in playing online please feel free to add me too.

I just checked mops miiverse profile and it says that the request I made on the friends list is 'pending'.

[Stratos]

I need to get my Wii back online. This house-sitting gig ends this weekend so if I can't get it working by then I can just play back at home. I would do that anyway but the two houses are far enough apart that it is difficult to spend a substantial amount of time at our normal home. Problem is we only have one key to the house so it is tricky to trade off duties throughout the day.


I have this complete Silver Sol set with complementing LS I want to get some use out of soon.
