Anyone else more excited about the B team monster hunter?

[Rager]

World was alright, even though at the start they hardly had any monsters and it was too easy.

But Rise was a true monster hunter game, I'm looking forward for the B team monster hunter game than wilds after hearing about how dumb down this version is, and how poorly it runs.

[HoneyDrake]

There were discussions that the B Team gets disposed of because of how much worse their performance are.
Less than half the earnings compared to World+IB and around 30% of Worlds playerbase (mainly Switch users which only have rise+sb available to them and the second biggest group was PC, console numbers were a joke)

So, assuming that the lead developers didn't change their mind, we will not see a B team title MH series game anymore and they put those resources into spin-offs instead.

handheld, not even console.

The B team was for handhelds titles.

edit: in fact: for the Switch Userbase, which happens to be on average around 9 years younger than the average console/pc audience. And it represents those kids quite well.

There is no B team. The whole different team stuff was made up by "fans" in order to self segregate.

[RobeRonin]

their is no a team and b team this is a myth ! they all work together! and nah rise sucked ballz ! World and Gu are the best! wilds is rather mild!

[Jaevwyn]

Rise was just MH Zoomer edition, if they are churning out more games akin to that, hard pass.

the so called "B-Team" is working on a Monster Hunter MMO. you're gonna have to play that and ignore WILDS like the true monster hunter fan you are.

so ture, rice only sold 15mil or something, literal pennies, i surprised they didn't layed off them yet

Eh, Rise was okay, it just couldn't hold me long term like World did. And it's hard to say what was the main cause, I guess hunts with wirebugs just devolve into spamming wirebug skills. Just needed to find what was the prime wirebug skill to spam against what monster. That or the lack of timed events, dailies/weeklies gave little reason to come back once you did what you wanted.

What make Rise a true MH game? Never understood when people say that. Rise borrow lots of mechanics from world. If you called it true then would it not be closer to GU or 4U? Rise got rid of hot and cold drink, mining is 1 click and so on.

sale #'s vs earnings. Most Rise copies were sold with heavy discounts and only reached those numbers after a delayed PC and even worse Console release date at which point the game was sold for discounts even on day 1 and the first sales were done early and rapidly. It was the first MH game which had a 50% discount not even half a year after release on console.

We are talking about ~30€ for a copy not even 3 months after PC release, having a sale every month, each time getting lower and lower and reaching the 14€ mark around november in the same year it released on PC.

Still waiting for those citations from that thread ages ago where you made these exact same claims about "B team" portable type games getting dumpstered alongside the devs.

Because it felt better than world. The traveling the world felt better. The switching skills, and having your own play style felt good. The gimmick was better than World gimmick.


World for me was all fluff and no good substance. Rise was the other way around, it felt good to play, it did not have the stupid claw. And while rise had its problems. It was not even close to the problems of world.

Like it is hard to take people serious when they bash rise and praise world. World babies are the worse.

Rise problems like giving all weapons counters and such was stupid but when it came to game play and flow of the game? Rise hands down better than world.

While I'm not touching this, because it's bait, I feel I need to point out something everyone of you missed...

World was literally a console exclusive for over a YEAR.

Also, with the whole B team crap? Still? Do I mention the different forks of publishing for this? There's two different lines between Sony and Nintendo, and don't get me started on Monster Hunter Online, or Frontiers, that never left the East.

But as for "true" hunters, given Rise had super moves...

It's a spin off. Same with Generations. This doesn't mean it was "bad", far from it. I honestly want Hunter Styles and the arts in the flagship title.

This "debate" is ultimately pointless. They're separate games with different mechanics. You can like both, and neither. You're not "forced" to pick a side.

But then, whenever has rational debate been fun? Everything is a cult! Death to those that don't like the thing I like! Wooo!

....Shoot me.

Rise was build around wirebugs and that dumb collecting of spirit bugs....
