Are We Allowed To Use Mods?

[Water Style]

Won't using any type of mods get you a penalty or something just as bad?

[Nope]

Yes and no
Just simply use at own risk

[Seamus]

There's been no punishment thus far. And all capcom has said is they're "looking into it".

Want to play it safe? Force offline mode if you want to mod. Don't want to be paranoid? Just do what you like.

Just use mods, it's fine. That transmog is pretty great.

[Raine]

nope. they'll hunt you down ban you and delete your steam account.

MHW is a MP game based on skill don't be that guy that cheats

Capcom has provided no definitive answer on their stance towards modding. Cloest we got is a few people from the support staff saying to mod at your own risk as the game doesn't officially support it, that they can't help if you somehow break your game with mods, and that "normally you shouldn't be banned" if you use graphics mods.

Capcom has yet to take any form of action aganist people using mods, hacks, or cheats. Even the people with blatantly impossible times on the Arena leaderboard have been untouched despite that being the equilvent of shouting " HEY I'M HACKING AND CHEATING HERE LOOK AT ME" right to Capcom's face.

Depends on what mods you're using.

Something like Transmog is entirely cosmetic and provides no real gameplay advantage so that isn't really a cheat.

Something like the mod that makes every item in the game available in the Provision shop definitely is cheating.

But not all mods are cheats.

you are right! that mod that changes the particles on Teo' blast effects so i dont drop below 60fps is cheating.

when use it to get a stable proformance in the game, i am causing others harm.





OP so far mods are use at your own risk, and so far capcom has done nothing.

I will quote you here
Are "YOU" new to gaming?
Mods and Cheats are different. I have plenty of mods I use in games to help me with the problems I get from having tritanopia.

Modding isn't a problem with gta5. At all. It's cheaters. They're not the same thing.

Like how ppl hack mhw to melt monsters, when the whole point of the game is to hunt and lvl up. Taking that away and you'll just get bored. And thank for the info.
