Monster Hunter World ICE Mod

[Renfro]

Okay so are most of you using this mod or just playing vanilla. I wanna play online with randoms so I wanted to know which is more popping.

[Mez Koo]

Most are probably not using mods or know they even exist.

ICE is a heavily modified "version" of the game. It's basically a modpack that sets the game to be a custom version. MHW is built in a way that lets people play together only if they are using the exact same game version. That's why ICE players can only play with other ICE players.

Boring part aside... Considering how most people don't even know about the existence of mods, a tiny fraction of the playerbase must be using ICE. Not to mention, even if someone know of and use mods, ICE isn't on Nexus (it's actually on GitHub). You aren't even playing the same game as others anymore, if you use ICE. The same can not be said about around 98% of the mods.

I don't recommend ICE (for multiple reasons I won't get into right now). Especially if it's your first time playing this game.

I also see a few streamers using it as well

I think you will have to look into discord servers to find more ICE players. Maybe start with the streamers you found?

I’ve seen a video from CantaPerMe the other day and I noticed he had a save with ICE on the name. Maybe try his community?

ICE improves the game in so many ways, really needs more players

ICE is awful, making an easy game even easier, avoid it at all costs.

Buffing ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HBG, lol.

I play ice and it is great, The swax and hh changes make these weapons the best they have ever been for me. A lot more focus on using the whole weapon kit and not just spam of 1 or 2 moves. it has a discord that is fairly active if you wana hunt with others:

Those ammo changes were in for a short time years ago as an experiment. the player has been nerfed in ice overall. With stuff like health aug nerf, rockstedy nerf, and the removal of clagger. The devs have been very good about tuning the weapons to be closer together compared to un-modded, with the help of great players giving suggestions in the ICE discord.

I wasn't even thinking about ammo changes funny enough, regardless of that, anyone can go and read the changelog of ICE and see all the awful changes they made to the game.

Ah, so you are one of those...well, I use both of those weapons and I use all their moves too funny enough, and I don't need ICE or any silly custom moveset to make the best of them either, I'm fully aware that a good hunter is one that knows that there's always an opportunity to use all of their moves and the weapons go further than just "big dps spam"

[Ccrack]

i started over with this mod the other day. the base game gunlance is an actual joke

It makes easier? Alright then im not using it lol. But could you let us know what makes it easy tho?

[Teratus]

I like mods in some games but not in others.
MH is not really a franchise I'd mod but some people really enjoy that aspect of the game.

What is ICE?
