The amount of monsters it's shipping is pitiful, specially if you consider they already started their collection of high deff assets and rigs with World
The amount variety Monsters we have in Wilds is much higher what we got based World. I also liked the fact returning monsters are from old world not the one we already got in World and Rise.

Apparently the full world map has leaked online, so be aware.

And man I hope it's incomplete because Jesus fuck, it sure looks small. 2 big areas, 2 small areas and that's it.

what performance issues?

I see a buch of benchmarks with great scores:
Here is a 3060 at 1080p (I have a ti version and lower cpu and less ram, so may be equal to what I would get).
monster-hunter-wilds-benchmark-whats-your-score-v0-zo307gnos8he1.png


Here is 4k, on a 4070ti 88fps. with ultra graphics.

monster-hunter-wilds-benchmark-whats-your-score-v0-lqclqgn8xche1.jpeg


None of these looks like bad performance.
I know people on here complain when their 2k 4090s aren't hitting 144fps at 4k but, that is ridiculous.
People need to learn to lower the graphics or resolution.

I used to play quake 3 at 800x600 at 22 fps back in the day as my voodoo3 and cyrix pentium 2 clone didn't get cut it.
I played Doom on a 386sx 16mhz machine in a tiny window in the middle of the monitor, just to play it.

Sure they can optimize more, but I really think with strong benchmark scores its not that bad. Unless there is something I am not aware of.

Oh no..i come from a time of playing Battlefield 1942 and C&C Renegade on dialup. I dont need 4k to enjoy a game. Those scores are great and I would be beyond happy with.

My best score I got was 11059 - Playable on my old PC. It is an old pc...but given how well it runs World and other titles vs this game...i just dont see why.

If there are images can you send me a link. I'm curious.
Sure friend, here you go:

Source is 4chan but I think it's believable. There's also a thread with a picture of the alleged final boss so maybe someone's leaking big time.

Looks complete to me. I'd imagine the expansion like Iceborne will add new maps.

Edit: Usually MH games as stated have 5 biomes which match up in what you've shown here. So this is par for the course. And you have to remember you actually have a lot of distance to cover as opposed to small scale games like the first 4 gen games and Rise/Sunbreak.

It's not as big as say BotW/TotK or XCX but for MH it's actually quite big. Though I'm curious if each biome has a load transition or if it's all seamless.

In all of the footage I've seen though I must say if I dislike anything it's how dark and washed out these biomes seem to be.

You´re looking at numbers with activated framegen and even those are still inflated as Capcom in their unending wisdom made the Benchmark 2/3rds worthless cinematics and empty desert with the actually "demanding" gameplay part, still no action or effects mind you, usually running at ~2/3rds of the average framerate at most.
A 3060ti does an average of 65 fps with dlss quality @1080p/high and runs ~40-45fps in the savanna to give you numbers.

I'm curious did they finally add normal coop or still makes you start the mission then restart it with your friend after you find the hunt target?
This is a good question. I’ve heard from exactly one random redditor that it’s just like world. This runs counter to capcom saying several times they were going to make multiplayer easier for the campaign.

The only thing I can theorize is that both might be true. It might be world style for LR spanning campaign, and then free matchmaking after.

This could be another reason for the short campaign. Capcom may expect most people not to need to play multiplayer during the easiest part of the game. Hence limiting the story to LR rather than spanning the entire base game like World.

It's actually exactly the same. In Rise you fought Narwa, the final boss, in their wimpy weak form and the story was not finished. Then the real version of the final boss came later and the story finished.

In Wilds you fight the final boss, in their wimpy weak form, and the story is not finished. Then the real version of the final boss will come later. Also, unlike Rise, you cannot even fight them again and they've got no gear to craft. It's not even a final boss, it's a teaser for the final boss coming later. Least you COULD craft Narwa's gear and fight it again.

The excuse for rise was covid, what is the excuse now? Monkey pox?

???

This game has one less monster in total count than World at base. GOAT Rise had 46 at base

PS5 version with 76 critics with an average of 90MC is pretty solid. Might drop or raise just 1 or 2 points. Not that i needed any reviews for this game as i played the beta.

And the release schedule for new monsters look dire, we only have bubbly boy on the horizon.
Thers 2 monsters in the horizon. One releasing in sping and another in summer. Seems slow though. AFter beating the base game and the endgame i will probably only gonna be back to it once an expansion drops.

Yeah, tbh best move for most would be to wait for the eventual Lightningborn/Break expac with G-rank in a year or two. World has 71 monsters at this point, more than double the launch numbers. 29 monsters and a 15 hour campaign with the easiest difficulty the series has ever had is kind of annoying.

But I love Monster Hunter :/

In base World we barely got any leviathans or any Temnocerans and not even fangbeast until the expansion and that was only Rajang.

In Wilds not wonky we all of that but also they introduced entirely new class of monster called Cephalopod.

Which is cool, but Wilds count also includes 3 reskins and two set piece monsters we don't fight more than once. I love variety, but the general count is still way too low

Also, Wilds has no Elder Dragon :/

I personally welcome that, I do like fighting Elder Dragons but I feel like World/Iceborne gone little overboard with them.

The endgame all just became fighting Elder Dragons but don’t worry we going to get Elder Dragons either in title updates or expansions.

We are at least have a good chance to get Shagaru Magala since Gore Magala is here.

If there is one thing I've learnt since the PS4 generation, it's to patiently wait years to play the final form of a game. I've already chalked up the following games for PS6:

  • Elden Ring
  • Spider Man 2
  • Jedi Survivor
  • Monster Hunter Wilds

Amazon charged me £69.99 for the PS5 version.
Standard edition.
Absolutely outrageous!
Something amiss surely?
Any Brit Gaffers have a similar experience?

It's £65 on PS Store. But that's digital. I assume you bought the physical disk.
I got the Steam version for £40 earlier today.

You can buy PSN wallet cards on sites like cdkeys and just top up and buy it on the store. You save money that way.
Is the disk something you need to have?
