Players can pre-register for the iOS and Android mobile game at the official Monster Hunter Now website; for their trouble, they’ll be rewarded with in-game bonuses that scale up according to the number of people who sign up. If 500,000 people sign up, everyone gets 10 potions and 3 paintballs (paintballs are used to mark monsters you encounter on your travels to hunt later at home). If 5 million sign up, everyone gets 10,000 Zenny and a 1,000-slot inventory expansion; that’s a lot of space for your monster parts.
At launch, the available weapon types will include:
Sword & Shield
Great Sword
Long Sword
Hammer
Light Bowgun
Bow
And the monsters players will be tracking down and battling as they take a lunchtime stroll will be:
Great Jagras
Kulu-Ya-Ku
Pukei-Pukei
Barroth
Great Girros
Tobi Kadachi
Jyuratodus
Paolumu
Anjanath
Rathian
Legiana
Rathalos
Diablos
Oh cool another franchise they can leech off of and another game they can half ass implement. And a bonus: more data they can steal about me. I quit go because I’m rural so driving someplace was the only way to get any pokemon. Finally drive to a park to battle some gyms just to have some shithead middle school kid come in and ninja the spot for my pokemon using gps spoofing. How do I know this? Kid was easy to dox (used basically his full name) and the park was a field with literally nobody around. Submitted a support ticket with pictures and didn’t even get a reply. They don’t fucking care.
Fuck niantech and I hope this game bombs. Just look at their preregister bonuses of trying to collectively bribe everyone. Shit company.
