Players can pre-register for the iOS and Android mobile game at the official Monster Hunter Now website; for their trouble, they’ll be rewarded with in-game bonuses that scale up according to the number of people who sign up. If 500,000 people sign up, everyone gets 10 potions and 3 paintballs (paintballs are used to mark monsters you encounter on your travels to hunt later at home). If 5 million sign up, everyone gets 10,000 Zenny and a 1,000-slot inventory expansion; that’s a lot of space for your monster parts.
At launch, the available weapon types will include:
Sword & Shield
Great Sword
Long Sword
Hammer
Light Bowgun
Bow
And the monsters players will be tracking down and battling as they take a lunchtime stroll will be:
Great Jagras
Kulu-Ya-Ku
Pukei-Pukei
Barroth
Great Girros
Tobi Kadachi
Jyuratodus
Paolumu
Anjanath
Rathian
Legiana
Rathalos
Diablos
Of course Jyuratodus is in there. Someone on staff has a problem.
What you don’t like slapping the removed fish around?
Oh cool another franchise they can leech off of and another game they can half ass implement. And a bonus: more data they can steal about me. I quit go because I’m rural so driving someplace was the only way to get any pokemon. Finally drive to a park to battle some gyms just to have some shithead middle school kid come in and ninja the spot for my pokemon using gps spoofing. How do I know this? Kid was easy to dox (used basically his full name) and the park was a field with literally nobody around. Submitted a support ticket with pictures and didn’t even get a reply. They don’t fucking care.
Fuck niantech and I hope this game bombs. Just look at their preregister bonuses of trying to collectively bribe everyone. Shit company.
They actually addressed rural areas in the live stream a couple days ago. I don’t remember if they said what they were gonna do but they did mention it.
