Monster Hunter Wilds - 72 Actual New Gameplay Details & Changes From World (Behind Closed Door Demo)

[@ArekkzGaming]

Hey guys! Just a reminder we are going off media impressions as we didn’t get to see the demo ourselves! So when we confirm it being open world among other details, it is because this is how the articles are labelling it. Thanks for watching!

[@Domonian]

Seeing conflicting reviews regarding the open-world-ness of the game. Some say it's open world, while others (like GamesRadar) say it's still locale based, but the maps are 2x larger than in World. Still going through reviews though, so I'm trying to see what's true or not.

[@Nanaki86]

Is Blood in the new Monster Hunter?

[@hirom4938]

It's pretty much entirely confirmed that it's not real open world, not quite sure what gave that impression to some people that it is. They already confirmed it's separate locales and it's much more likely that there is a loading screen between areas and each area has it's own base camp. If not they'd literally have to make it so you go into one locale from the camp and if you go through the other site of the camp you'd be in a different locale, which seems incredibly jarring and nonsensical since the locales in themselves aren't seamlessly combined.

[@zodrickzheioh7318]

I'm glad they have multiple options for the Palico voices, the Human voice doesn't bother me, but I always pictured it kinda like Wookies, where they just have their own language of Meows and we just know what they're saying XD

[@zodrickzheioh7318]

Also, as far as the verticality of the map, and it seeming to be largely open world, I wonder if you can climb up the mountains and such, Imagine setting up camps at the top of spires or in the tops of large trees so you can come from at high, and survey the map. no matter what, this looks to be the next level of monster hunter, and I cannot wait.

[@zodrickzheioh7318]

That being said, I kinda hope this has a longer life cycle than most Monster Hunter Games, most having about a 2 year life cycle, one year for the base game and one for the expansion (not including continued support, bug fixes etc, but actual additional Content). Seeing them add another major part to the map every year or two in a five year life cycle, this could be the only game I play for the rest of time (until Wilds 2). I think with this style of game, I think Rank level quests won't be as important, (like low, high, and G rank), I think they'll still exist to a degree, mostly as map states, but I think expansions to this kind of game go further as new areas, but look at me, Looking like 3 years into the future. I'm just too excited, can't wait to see the other zones!

[@The_medicine_frog]

I have also viewed the palico's language this way and have compared it to wookies as well😅. The only way I'm using the voices is if we can pick a personality and if we get a voice like Jean the cat from no more heroes 3. If I can make my cat sound like that and be sarcastic then I might consider it.

[@themurdock619]

It should be they help and you still don't know what they are saying

[@Legendary_Honey]

I've been saying the same thing since the trailer dropped, lol. I much preferred them like wookies. I honestly can't stand the talking cats. I'm so against them having cutesy human voices.

[@Valhaluke]

All of this is great, but hands down, the best thing I heard, and it's unquestionably the best change to happen to Monster Hunter, is being able to pick your traps back up. Putting a trap down when the monster got weak so I could cap it only to have it fight my cat for 4 minutes before leaving the area, and you have to destroy the trap because you can't put down another. It doesn't seem like much, but getting north of 200 hours playing it can add up.

[@kingmiklo4143]

When you go to an area setting up traps at all exits to prevent escapists something it's going to make this feel way more immersive right off the bat. This is only viable if you have the option of picking up them in the first place. I'm so happy haha

[@Legendary_Honey]

I don't know if you were around for the older titles, but you used to have to wait for the traps to expire. You couldn't disable them yourself. It took like 10 minutes before you could place another trap. This is such a welcome change

[@kingmiklo4143]

[@metalgamer8179]

[@grayden4138]

Why are laying traps down to capture before the monster was weakened? Just use Sleep Bombs when the monster is weak, and lay the trap on top of it. Boom. Done.

I'm really glad that they decided to make some monsters locked behind weather conditions because if they have any of them that make traversal harder or that make you take damage over time or that just adds some layer of challenge to the hunt I think that that could go a long way in making more hunts more memorable, like imagine going out to fight a Barioth, but every time he shows up it's only ever in a snowstorm or he'll always summon a snowstorm so you're always having to fight with that reduced visibility range or something but it's nice detailing that I appreciate

The game is not one open world, it has mutiple different maps that are 2x bigger than World maps and you can enter the village without any loading screens.

But if village is connected to all these maps without loading, than you have an open world game

[@Solluna2003]

Honestly I'm alright with this. Don't get me wrong open world games can be something special when done right, but in my honest opinion having so many creatures (large monsters, small monsters, and endemic life) in one area as large herds in a single open world map can ruin the immersion with lag and terrible frame rates. But if the locales are 2 or 3 times larger than world's and are connected without loading screens to make a seemless transition with seasons, along with many quality of life changes to gameplay and new mechanics/monsters. It's more than what I hoped for and am happy many are enjoying and waiting for wilds to release.

I hope it's not open world, as that severely limits the variety of the game's monsters. One of the great parts of World and even older games was travelling to an entirely new locale and seeing a whole new ecosystem and seeing how monsters interact with it. Another hint that the game is not really open world is that the game's website says that this area is just the first locale called Windswept Plains within the continent of the Forbidden lands, with its very own subsections, leading me to believe it's going to be like a mix of World and surprisingly Generations - with multiple hub world relating to different areas of the world. Perhaps there are several villages in multiple different locales, and those are the "hubs" as opposed to one general hub world such as Astera/Seliana etc., which would be a much better option that just one big open world desert.

most likely its not a full open world , just hubs inside the hunting map ( if the translations that there are multiple villages are correct that is ), in other words , like World but there is a big camp Edit : i refuse to believe they would risk it all with such a risky idea when everyone is happy with maps ( also i like my pc being able to run it )

[@Chillz_OG]

As far as I know from other youtubers who saw the demos. The normal quest system still exists, it's just how you accept them changed I think. When you slay/capture the quest monster you get a little reward screen right there out on the field and it won't send you back to the village automatically, so failing probably works the same way. A quick you failed screen and leaves you at wherever you carted too i'd wager.

@@UziGameGP that would be totally fine and makes sense, especially with the voiced Hunter. I just dont want to have to play solo to advance a game i would 100% play with a friend instead. Or even worse, have only one of us advance a quest, to then repeat it again.

[@norberto_r]

Agreed, this made MHW campaign co-op extremely tedious and slow, and from the comment at the end of the video, it sounds like it's also going to be this way in Wilds ☹️☹️☹️

[@Civ3]

looks totally awesome im so glad it has some features from world that weren't there in rise like mantles for example. I hope that they are just planing to annouce new weapon later on i would love to see something completly new but well they have to save some features for the expansion don't they?

[@theadmiral4157]

They better add 14 NPCs that helps you randomly when you fire a SOS flare because we have 14 weapons

[@PicklesRTasty]

While I'm very happy to learn HH will be more like World, I really hope Capcom is inspired by what Rise did and makes the weapon just a little smoother and quicker - plus actually able to do solid DPS on its own

[@Mare_Man]

I just hope it still _sounds_ as good as it does in Rise, otherwise it's just another beat stick

[@thisisnttaken]

it absolutely does solid DPS on its own already.

[@cashday1839]

Im extremely suprised that you guys werent invited for the demo. Like arekkzgaming is how i and many others im sure, learned about monster hunter and how to use the weapons in the first place.

[@karaarcadia]

You sold me at World style hunting horn

[@deyzunasbunker]

hell fucking yeah brother

[@cuarmento]

This is very cool and all, but CAN WE PAUSE THE GAME IF WE PLAY SOLO?

[@phenomenonnarutokun]

The most IMPORTANT feature I need

[@antiheld7323]

I hope not

[@鏖魔キリン]

why not?

[@johndelanie3649]

You can in any game that's not World or Rise lmao

[@cuarmento]

@@johndelanie3649 World is the only one, you can pause in Rise

[@Wombat2233]

The Sandtide sound similiar to the sandstorm in tri ultimate when the Jen Moran attacked. Just as apdated version

[@arthorlloothe2238]

What was that final fantasy that use open maps and activites hunts when it reach the boss? Protagonist was noctis if l am not correct.

[@theirresponsibleghost7748]

i havent seen any MH creators get jealous (in a negative way) about the people who got to see the 30 minute demo. everyone is just excited to get more information about the game we all desire to play, and that is awesome. i genuinely cant wait for everyone, creators and players alike to be able to get our hands on the game for the first time. its gonna be so damn fun

[@Jekler]

The best news of this video is the hunting horn going back to worlds style

[@GodSmit]

This video was F****** GREAT! So much details. Hella excited for the game, but I’ve gotta say, the solo missions only? The fact that you’d have to wait for other players to watch main cutscenes in the game before joining quite literally is something so inconvenient that I was literally taken back by the likelihood of that being present in this game. That and solo missions only is odd for a game so focussed on cooperative play.

[@Arthas63]

I wonder if then it is even possible to fail a quest if there is no timer and if you in an open world you can just die over and over again without losing the quest how it seems which is i guess like an expedition in world and rise

[@herbertuswasnixus7322]

i am glad the Ai hunter feature form sunbreak made it into wilds. its a great feature

[@skullwolff9442]

that was allot of positive news. i hope 16 player lobbies are a thing. having 16 players run around the map hunting monsters will be amazing. 16 players fighting the same monsters XD. that could also mean a real 16 player seige for the first time, insted of 4 party's of 4. that monster will be touph. any one up for the first true raid boss in a monster hunter game?

[@BankkeyAoshi]

Thank you💪🏾💙

[@ricmramos]

No cluch claw is already a win.

[@Vezrabuto]

the pop up camps and the full open world without loading screens feels alot like dragons dogma 2. even that greatsword parryswing is a skill in dd2

[@zegamingcuber857]

Because of it being open world and there being no timer does that mean you basically have infinite carts as long as the camp isn't destroyed?

[@NPC0010]

SOS Ai followers? Wow is that really confirmed? I never thought that was a possible outcome, but now that I hear it I really like this. I always wanted the followers from Rise to comeback. I wonder if they're just some randomly generated Ai or actual NPCs from the village like in Rise.

[@slaik3088]

When you say it's twice the size of previous titles for map size, are you saying like all of worlds maps put together and doubled? Or are you saying it's the ancient forest but doubled?

[@crowned5284]

what theyre saying is that the locales in wilds are 2-3x bigger than the locales in world

[@MoomiesKitchen]

Definitely bummed about the hunting horn news. I really enjoyed how HH played in rise vs. world

[@BarderBetterFasterStronger]

Sorry you're bummed, but I think you should give World style a chance. There's so much more to love and learn with the World kit. It is such a pleasure to master.

[@hartake6667]

Glad they added AI teammates for support - some player teammates make quests more difficult in world/ice born

[@drallina_lina]

hey i havent seen your videos in quite a long time since mhw since i dint play rise. sadly.. cant wait to see what cha got for this one

[@bystander85]

It's a big bummer they're not making the campaign fully co-op playable. I was trying to get my brother into World and he ended up quitting because co-op ended up being such a cumbersome process through the campaign. I continued playing for 600+ hrs but it's unfortunate that there was no way to enjoy co-op from the beginning for people that would prefer that type of experience -- for example, my brother doesn't really play single player games anymore, but co-op is a close second to full on multiplayer or competitive games for him.

[@marcusdeanda-cw6vf]

So is it like guiding lands times 10. Dope

[@PepTwo]

this might be the first game that I'll be willing to buy full price on release

[@rept7]

I'm curious whats going to happen to multiplayer if NPC hunters are possible. I'm hoping it doesn't hurt the game's more social functions, which was one thing World felt like it was kind of lacking for.
