Monster Hunter Wilds New Gypceros Gameplay Reaction & Breakdown

[@Nooctae]

I still feel like doing a new set of open beta without the improvements to performance is gonna bite them. You can tell people that the final version is gonna be better all you want, the info won't get to everyone.

[@sir_quirkus7206]

Yeah I think that too. I know it’s not the finished product but a lot of people don’t get that and they’ll look at the poor performance when the game is only a few weeks out and be like nah

[@peza.]

A thing that could help A LOT about that is simply putting a very visible text when you enter the beta warning you that nothing was changed apart from the new monster

[@razxephon4873]

[@oreoshakebuddy8605]

With the games being designed around being able to use dung pods it surprises me that you don’t use them, in your own words, to make it more challenging for yourself. Like every time someone uses one you say something. The game also being designed around restocking it’s strange you don’t feel the same way about restocking, especially since you don’t play ranged. Not even tryna be argumentative, just noticed you actively choose to not use dung pods, but you choose to use restocking.

[@Nooctae]

I kinda agree with Ruri on this. A case where two monsters end up together in a fight is fun and memorable. if you dung pod one away everytime, it kinda removes a cool element to the game that could create a nice memory for you. When you optimally fight every monsters 1v1 with good prep, the game is honestly kinda too easy anyway.

[@codename_d3vl863]

Can I agree with both sides on this one? I think my dung pod usage in my mh games has been either low or not ever used. I could see myself use it in the beginning until I get used to the game, but I can see my one friend use them often, she doesn’t like getting ganged up on from multiple monsters. I am unfazed cuz I enjoy using one as a shield from the other hehe. Restocking, I mean I am a light bowgun main…however I enjoy restocking from plants around the map. In risebreak, it was like kinda momentum breaking when I had to go back to camp, even with saved loadouts I had to spend too much time in menus and moving some items around. with restocking with plants, zero menus. On that those I’m still angy with that one map, with the giant pyramid, it didn’t have any slashberry plants, so it was rough when I couldn’t craft slash ammo for the whole fight. Still had fun. Sorry for long post.

The wake up damage was never hard hitting unless your armor was weak. Also you can see it pulsating before waking up.

[@TheBulletProofGun]

The amount of rage bait in the MH community is insane. Every thread on the Steam forums is people saying MH is woke and or things like Capcom hates their fans, like come on. Do we really have nothing better to do than bait and troll?

[@codename_d3vl863]

It really is the silliest thing. I see it as a grasping at straws sort of thing. Since they didn’t have a leg to stand on the first time when they complained about the male/female armor swaps you could do. They had like 90% of the community slap their face to stfu, and since then they’ve been desperate. Like both sides are just ridiculous at this point.

No Capcom just hates street fighter fans lmao

[@Eragon_RH]

[@Mr_megido]

I think there’s going to be a launch trailer but that’s it otherwise I don’t think we will get more could be wrong though

[@drxavier1870]

Gypceros not stealing anymore probably links to Restocking being a thing, same with Chamelios. Theres no fear of running out of healing by getting it stolen since you can just leave and come back with a full set of 10 + craftables. No Maps to steal either, its simply mechanics that are made irrelivant due to Quality of Life changes and thus removed

[@nuke2099]

Restocking isn't QoL. Its a fundamental gameplay change. People really need to stop calling everything QoL.

[@drxavier1870]

@nuke2099 It dont know what it is all i know is monsters stealing stuff from you has become a very nothingburger threat due to how easy it is to get new items nowadays, you can get a full stack of Mega Potions with just 5 Herb and 5 Honey gathering points and so on

[@wardmeeks66]

Gypceros getting back up from fake dying still did more damage than the Azurrakan pin attack 😂😂

[@hextamus]

57:50 Does it mean they may have fixed Lagi? 👀

[@pao5563]

Gypceros has 2 flashes now. One quick small flash that only hits the front of Gypceros and it only briefly knocks the hunter down, then the second one (the classic) bigger and brighter flash that hits 360 and it stuns hunters for the full duration.

[@benturtl9076]

I'd still wait for the full game to comment on difficulty and progression

[@Kopa_Malphas]

[@UmbraVolpes]

Thise night wasps were in the beta. I want to say bear banahabras nest at night iirc

[@DustedArchivist]

13:50 looked like it was an animation cancel, it happens in world too when a monster knocks you on the ground and you can slowly crawl away. If your palico or teammate distracts, stuns or even if the monster isnt in the proper position it'll immediately cancel the crawling animation. Its happened to me several times when fighting safi.

[@Retinax]

Did the old games have the "camera panning around the monster as they die" effect, or the timer that pops up and counts down after a monster kill? If they did I don't really understand how anyone ever fell for the Gyp fake-out to begin with, and if they didn't then those additions kinda make the fake-out too obvious for the damage dealt by it to matter. Even without seeing the promotional materials leading up to release, the game makes it pretty obvious its not dead yet. To truly fake out those out of the know, the game would need to do the death camera and start a fake timer.

[@rurikhan]

These were different times. But yes, the old games had that too.

[@666slateran666]

Im fine with being spoiled on the beta monsters, there is gonna be ton of surprises in the full game forsure! So excited to get back into the hunt

[@legomotion77]

Ruri rightfully clowning on village rise just reminds me of that guy who ragequit to low rank Khezu

[@rurikhan]

Hey I love that guy, he’s an awesome Bloodborne dude, but yeah… that Khezu really got under his skin, he couldn’t even turn off the console after that beat down.

[@majinkevinci]

I can excuse the Gypceros not hitting hard and not stealing because it's low rank (same to anything that seems "removed" from monsters to make them easier in these showcases), but if in High rank or master he doesn't do that I will be so dissapointed that maybe the next monhun will be a pass for me. Also about difficulty, after world, Low rank has become an extremely lengthy tutorial which I'm not too annoyed about it, but they should make important progression quests hard enough so people learn how to play.

hope they give us the updated gypceros armor instead of the original gypceros armor, both looks freakishly ugly, at least the updated version looks a bit kooler. Or maybe a new redesign

[@Frvnklin]

Gypceros looks like it is a very early game moster in this game similar to Pukei-Pukei. I'm not mad at it. Wont be a problem for us vets but I feel that new players will stuggle, maybe not enough to cart but just enough to feel a sense of accomplishment. I have hope in Capcom's balancing, I am not worried.

[@Duppy0906]

35:44 we dont know were gypceros appears tho, we dont know if he appears early or maybe hes hr exclusive, plus the beta isnt balanced as the final games And tbh all this difficulty talk is just weird to me cause as someone whos played almost every old game they were harder yeah, but thats like comparing 2 easy thing imo, cause old mh base games still werent really hard, mhf2/tri/mh4 all very easy from experience, it probably helped that i gained experience as time went, thats why modern games wont really challenge me much, which its a whole nother topic ti balance new games around people with many years of experience, if we take frim world its many players with 7 years of experince and many people i know will have a easier time with Wilds,

[@thatonegregkid]

Yeah i think a big distinction to make here is: "Is the game easy" or "have i just become more skilled as a player" and decide where in that you fall. I went back to world/ IB for a bit during fall and found the fights to be MUCH easier to manage even after nerfing myself with worse gear. It was easier to dodge moves, predict attacks, and target monsters weakpoints, from before where I would be chugging potions ad nauseum. I found that both me and my friend just became better at the game, and better players overall. It's not that MH is an overall easy game, it's just one where you can become very skilled and make the game LOOK easy. I think it will be the same here with Wilds; if you played through and became skilled in world/IB/Sunbreak, then in wilds a lot of that will carry over. I'm sure some parts will feel challenging due to unfamiliarity with the new moves, focus system, and new monsters. That will pass quickly though, and you'll find you will go through most hunts with relative ease. Especially since Wilds is the first installment in a new mainline game, we will only have Low-High rank quests, and there will be a bit of adjusting since everyone has been so used to master rank in both IB and Sunbreak.

[@alexedwards5152]

I recently played MHFU abs while it is harder than the current games; I have more context as to why… the controls are clunky (being forced to use the directional buttons for the camera is complete heresy!), the player movement is more restrictive and the monsters you fight are not introduced at a stable rate, they’re like “oh you beat a few Velocidromes, a Congalala and a Daimyo Hermitaur… now here’s a f**king Monoblos!” Monster Hunter World gave you the option to seek out stronger monsters sooner than you should, like hunting a Rathalos before you even reach the Wildspire Wastes, whereas older games often force you to fight said monsters before you’re properly prepared for it

[@nuke2099]

We actually do know where Gypceros appears because of datamines. We know the entire story and the roster for those who know this information. Also Gypceros is low rank. The beta/demo is also always harder than the final games. Always been like that.

[@nuke2099]

@@thatonegregkid Its a known fact the games are being made easier and easier per title for the majority of the game because Capcom wants a wider audience each time and the easiest way to do that is by making it easier.

[@Miropup]

a lot of monhun vets have an incredibly inflated perception of how difficult old monhun *actually* was. Yes, it was overall harder, but a significant amount of the difficulty people remember comes from less experience with the franchise and games in general, being a child/teen and memories just being very biased in general. Also the fact that we dont even know if the damage here is indicative of the *actual damage* it will do or just a result of beta balancing.

We've also been talking about Village difficulty in older games and the newer additions to the series. The older games are leaps and bounds more unforgiving and we've been loving it.

[@beasley_unborn6729]

Strong disagree. The older games were significantly easier at least in my experience. I think what's happening here is your just looking at the old games through rose tinted glasses. They werent harder they were just more annoying because they were janky, the hit boxes were terrible and the games had terrible frames unless you used an emulator on pc. With that being said, I also think I had a significantly easier time with the older games because I already beat world when I started them and a lot of game knowledge transfers over. I generally like hard games as well and so I'm speaking from experience. As for world I don't think it's necessarily a hard game either and there is a certain point where things will start to click and you'll naturally start seeing hunts differently. I carted a lot in world starting out but after rolling a new character I'm in iceborne at glavenus now and haven't carted once. I don't think the games are necessarily getting easier, I think the more you know what you are doing, and most importantly, the more you know what the monster is doing the easier monster hunter games become for you.

Otherwise itd take you 40 minutes for a kill and everything except chatacabra would one shot you.

I'm guessing the hope weapons are stronger than normal as well since they have Green sharpness which is not normal for the starting gear

[@thew1ngman]

@@razxephon4873 Everything in the beta is normalized for a road demo. Thats why every armor has the same armor value. They aren't "stronger" or "weaker". The monsters, their damage, their HP was all tuned for the demo. Its tuned for a very specific purpose. Normal MH balancing is done around the fact that you can go raise defense or get stronger weapons. Its not the case here. So the demo is tuned on the easier side so people can mess around with it. The final product will be wildly different in terms of damage taken/dealt.
