I found a way to pause the game
I'm tired of Capcom's dumb decisions, what if i need to go to work, go use the bathroom, take a #2, what if i need to go and pick up a friend or a family back from the airport but the elder dragon i fought so hard for is limping and i only have 5 min left??

1.press start
2.search for resmon resource monitor
3.select MHW in process
4. go CPU Tab
5.right click on MHW and select Suspend Process
6. Time stops

It only works if you play SOLO!!!!!!

Or you could not spend nearly 50 minutes on any given hunt

th true question is why do you only have 5 minutes left on an elder dragon, the only case where thi scould happen is on 15 minutes investigations. so if you loose because of going to the bathroom, you will only loose 10 minutes.

(i still think the lack of a pause button is stupid)

"what if i need to go to work"

why would you start to play when you're about to go work?

I guess I don't have to stand in place with ghille on anymore.
I wish tabbing out would suspend it sometimes.

Pause during solo play would be badass. OPs workaround seems lengthy.

I guess if he makes a shortcut to the program or pins it to his taskbar he might have an easier time with it, leave it open, tab to it, click suspend.

Better off making a powershell script to suspend the game by process name

Pssssh, bathroom breaks during gaming is why we have Applejuice bottles. :steammocking:

You found a way? This has been common knowledge since release OP, just search the threads and you'll see multiple people talking about suspending the app.

Its definitely useful if you have a wife and kids, you'll understand my pains one day; or maybe you wont.
