Eh, not too big of a deal, may get back into it and play around with the online some more before it goes defunct.

Sad to see it go, but at the same time we should be grateful that, unlike in Japan, we got to play this online for free.spike6958

It is not like I still play it, but it is still a bit sad to see it go.

I had some great times on those servers. :D

So does this affect the Wiiu edition in any form? Fightingfan

From what I've been told (literally just found out about this as well), it's Monster Hunter Tri with more weapon types, more monsters, etc. It's more than a GOTY pack, but less than a new game. Seeing as I didn't even manage to get all the stuff or fight everything in Tri, a new game + doesn't sound appealing :P

So was the online community dead or are they shutting down to make everyone buy the Wii U version?roboccs

They decreased the number of serves to maintain density, but there has always been a good number of people on.

We've gone through so much; from getting our asses kicked by the Great Jaggi to successfully slaying the Alatreon. Every minute was epic. Our goal is to slay monsters, no matter what terrain they're on. Even after the 7th defeat, we never gave up. We mined, we gathered, and we crafted various unique weapons and learned how to use them. We compared each other's armor sets and took each other's advises. We often sought help from other hunters; either veterans or newcomers. The journey was grand and it's almost to its end.

When the time comes, I shall say farewell to my file and all the fellow hunters I've met in the past 3 years. Hopefully we'll meet again in a new ultimate adventure.

My thought exactly

I have just recently bought this game. This means I won't be able to play it or just I will have to play it solo?
