Gonna stick to Rise for a bit, anyone else?

[Sledge]

Played it on the Switch from launch, bought it again on PC and own Sunbreak but hadn't really bothered, just ended up replaying World on PC instead as most of my pals only cared for World.

That said, I'm a bit unimpressed with the visuals > performance of Wilds, so I'll be sticking with Rise for a bit.

Edit - For those who misunderstand, no, Wilds doesn't look bad. The performance cost to run the game on a visual level BELOW that of World is simply ridiculous. The visuals do not justify the performance, that's it.

Edit #2 - I do have Wilds coming via the PS5 physical instead, and figured I'll stomach 30fps for decent visuals, the same way I did with GU, World and Rise on their OG platforms.

That said, I'm still going to be spending most of my time on PC playing Rise, so, if you want to hunt, feel free to add me. If you wanna drop me a comment on my page, letting me knowing you're adding me for MonHun, happy days.

you can just admit youre broke

Yeah, nice try mate.

I'm sticking to Rise until first expansion of Wilds comes out. It's going to be a lot more enjoyable when all the fix patches are out.

Ideally I'd be playing MHGU or Frontier but im too lazy to setup Frontier and I want to play with a friend so Ill wrap up Rise, finish Iceborne and hopefully by that time Wilds is playable above 100fps

Wilds take a super computer from Nasa to look and play good.
Meanwhile i have a I5 and a 1070TI and i can max out Rise/SB and see a lot of neat details in the monsters.

I thought it was quite clear, but I shall reiterate for you.

I was unimpressed with the visuals relative to the performance side of MH Wilds.

Meaning, you know, that the game doesn't look quite good enough to me on medium - low settings in comparison to say, MH World, to warrant the sort of performance it gets. I didn't say the game looked bad, but having to rely on upscaling to AND FG to get good performance?

World still looks incredible seven years later.

I'm not playing Rise because I think it looks better, I'm not just keen on RE Engine and the performance problems it brings when used in open worlds.

See Dragon's Dogma 2.

I have I7 gtx1080 and performance issues

If anyone else will still be playing this, feel free to add me. Always open to comms if people wanna vibe & chat mid-hunt, provided they're mature enough and good with a bit of banter.

Comms isn't necessary though, if you just want a regular hunting bud, I can be that fella as well, no drama.

I haven't seen proper game play of Wilds yet. Does it truly look 10x worse than Rise? (Rise looks fine, just saying)

[Laughing kookaburra]

the moment they give you the ability to can 360 TCS or SAED in wilds it's a slap in the face of the whole franchise, positioning, aiming and commitment doesn't mean ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ now because 360 focus mode unga bunga.

On a technical level, absolutely not. That's not what I meant. Sorry if my initial post came off that way.

Rise & Sunbreak look good.

World & Iceborne look amazing.

Wilds has the potential to look incredible, but is brought down by a reliance on upscaling and frame-generation.

On medium settings, I couldn't maintain 30fps at native 1080p as some scenes in the beta were simply too intensive for whatever reason. I had to rely on FSR / upscaling to get a consistent frame-rate, which blurred the image quality and if I want 60fps, I'm supposed to use Frame-Generation, which comes with issues when used below 60fps.

World on max settings, a seven year old game, looks much better to me than Wilds on medium settings does, save for the fur and character models. Everything else was unimpressive when you take the performance hit into account.

The reason I said I'm "sticking" with Rise, is due to not having played Sunbreak before, despite having bought it when it launched. I beat Rise on Switch before G Rank, wasn't impressed by it, re-bought it on Steam in anticipation for G Rank and to give it another go, just never got around to it.

MHGU and MHR are very fun to play. Very different concept, so that these games do not match the performance requirements of Wilds, but still provide the most important part of gameplay - fun to play.

What is your goal right now on Rise ?
I admit it is difficult to find other hunters to play with.
Complete beginner to MH franchise here, and honestly the multiplayer system is terrible.

I grind to RC 100 and maybe I'll buy the DLC, so if u want to play let me know.

[mechajinkun]

performance issue aside. Wild is a very drab game due to that stupid filter. Art direction really took a step back too compare to world.

I adore Rise. I play more Rise than I do world at all.
I actually like the simpler graphics it gives me the old ps2boomer vibes but better looking.
I prepurchased Wilds just to be amongst the numbers who are signalling "I want this" but I doubt I will play much until the first DLC.

World was a different feel. It was like a huge vibe when it came out. Especially PC.
Wilds doesn't have that fervor atm.

Rise is the step child you leave in the basement with a box of magical treasure o's and a thing of chicken top ramen, yeah it exists but honestly no one notices.
