Monster hunter world pc review, does the extra power matter?

We all know the ps4 pro and xboxone x were a bit lacking in performance, where the ps4 pro is defenitely the worst, and the ps4 and xboxone versions of monster hunter are basically a good argument to upgrade that base console.

So is the pc a good enough version to do this game justice?

Of course it is, this time you don't have to choose between high resolution, high graphical fidelity or framerate. You can have it all.

Capcom also said they might release a patch that increases graphics quality.

Well, I played the game on basic PS4, and it was ugly as hell on it. Real eyesore. And this is not troll, but the God's own truth.

Thanks for the heads up of this game coming out on PC.. xD *forgot about it*

Shame Capcom couldn't do more with the PC version. But hey, the community will fix things like they always do.

If there is a choice to get this on PC or on consoles, I will always opt for the PC version.

It's nice that PC gamers get to enjoy a Monster Hunter title. Have heard MH: World is really good too. :)

Of course PC is the only platform that can run the game properly. The consoles are shit.

More importantly.... Is that IGN review original or plagiarized as well? hehe ;)

Consoles are shit in your opinion and yet devs pay more attention to them and treat PC for what it is an after though, must suck being treated as a laster race lol.

Sounds like you enjoyed your beta testing.

Well you gotta try and put a positive spin on it as being considered last must be hard for the mast.. I mean laster race lol.

60fps is obviously ideal and that's what I'll be going for if I pick this up on the following weekend, but it's kinda funny to see people taking the framerate so seriously when the previous games are so slow that the PSP titles would lock certain areas at like 20fps and were still easily playable. And then, there was that horrid Wii U port which could fluctuate from near-60 to 15ish frames just by turning the camera, but it was still technically possible to pull off everything in the game as far as I remember. And that's why we're all excited it's on PC!

As for power-wise, MHW can run as low as GPU GTX 750 Ti, it's just CPU intense. Here you can see for yourself:

Sure is tough. By the way, how are you enjoying Nioh, and Yakuza?

The game runs fine on base PS4, IGN even states this on the review

It's sad that you hermits can't do a PC praising thread without shitting on consoles.

@recloud: actually isn’t Pc also has the worst versions with every multiplats with the minimum setting lol

Monster hunting is monster hunting... if I cant get it portable, I'll have to settle for the 60 frames.

What are you asking here exactly? If you set the game to minimum settings and smear crisco all over the monitor, wont the PC version be the worse? whatever helps you sleep at night

It's an action game so I'm going to get it running at 60+fps like any self-respecting gamer would.

Looking forward to it!

Devs pay more attention to consoles? Is that why almost every release this gen is better on PC and more frequent on PC (most high scoring games)? Is that why PC gets patches first for the biggest games? Is that why PC has all the biggest games while consoles don't?

@zaryia: any one multiplat sell more on consoles than on PC, unless it's from a PC originally developer (a small bunch of developers, not really relevant).

Multiplats are developed with consoles in mind.

Patches are released first on PC games because on consoles developers have to pay a fee to publish patches, hence, they condense all the patches released on PC and release them on consoles to not pay a lot of fees.

Most multiplat developers make more money on consoles combined (most of the time on PS4 alone) than on PC, that's the reason console releases have a narrow launch window, stake holders know console consumers spend more money on games and why they're usually launched at special dates.

Graphics of multiplats are only pushed ahead when a new generation of consoles comes around.

Educate yourself.

PS.: You can make a praising PC thread without bashing consoles, no need to feel threatened by consoles, insecure prick.

hahaha

Developers stated they would do console parity which is lame. The only real benefit I see is unlocked FPS and higher resolution if your PC can handle it. I mean, at the end of the day PC version will be better than consoles but with this particular port it's not by much.

Okay that's a bunch of insignificant nonsense.

One thing we actually know, that's been objectively proven by experience and backed up by the masses on the internet, is that these games (remember we're talking about multiplats here, you said it) are better on PC. They're better graphically; they're better in terms of responsiveness and control; they're better because you don't need to pay for online connectivity; they're better because there are more options for social features; they're better in every single way. This is an objective (we can measure it) fact, unlike the crap you continually push on this forum.

So regardless of your assertions, the games are still better on PC. We know this. It's been proven time and time again and you console warriors just can't seem to handle that fact.

Let's also not forget that consoles have been squandering almost every advantage that they had against PCs, seemingly in an effort to be more like shitty PCs. You got your day-one patches, you got long download times, you got long install times, you got required online connectivity.

And when consoles are just shitty PCs:

• Who cares if "Multiplats are developed with consoles in mind."? Consoles are just shitty PCs with only one input option.
• What does it matter when and where patches are delivered. Are you saying consoles are made to... wait? when PCs get something right away? That would appear to be another mark against consoles because of your gate-keeping corporate overlords.
• Who cares what platform makes more money on when it all goes to the same pot? This doesn't affect the gamer at all. You know what does affect the gamer? The game being a better experience on PC.
• "Graphics of multiplats are only pushed ahead when a new generation of consoles comes around." Okay well that's a pure bit of nonsense right there. We've seen plenty of console games make their way to PC taking advantage of features not seen or disabled on consoles. This tech is introduced by Nvidia and AMD when they release their new video cards every few years.

Now none of this means you shouldn't play games on consoles if you want to. That's fine. We just know, as an indisputable fact, that the PC experience is going to be better most of the time. Again it doesn't make consoles a bad option, it just makes you full of shit.

(not bashing consoles, just bashing you. We as gamers need consoles because they do provide a lot of the sales and allow the industry to be a prevalent as it is. We can't expect everyone to have the time and money to invest into PC gaming. I just gotta call you out for acting like an idiot-troll on these forums)

@pyro1245: this is not about PC or consoles being better, you moved goalposts.

The minimum requirements ask for a GTX 760 and they say its enough to only play at 1080p lowest settings at 30 fps. The vid I posted above shows the GTX 750Ti running the game at an average of 50fps at low settings, 1080p. I think the port is fine if you ask me. The render scale option is the main thing that kills the framerates. No one is turning it off in their performance tests, they don't realize that it is multiplying their resolution. Volumetric effects is another setting that I hear is very taxing.

I wasn't expecting much for MHW PC version and I waited this long for it to hit PC anyways.

Picking this up tomorrow. I've been waiting on this version, so i'm excited. Almost caved a few times and bought the Pro version, but i'm glad I held off. Really good quality.

If theirs anything I learned is to always wait for PC version whenever possible. I learn my lesson after GTAV lol. Word of advice. There are lots of other games to be played and waiting for PC version is always worth it. Always try to wait and you'll never be disappointed :)

Picking MHW PC myself this Saturday!!!

I utilize my PC for gaming like 95% of the time, so it's usually a given. I very rarely cave unless I really want to play something.

I feel ya on craving to play it asap. I try to have everything on PC as much as possible. If I have to double-dip, I will.

I guess I was expecting more. They talked about it would be more optimized and really the only thing is the unlocked FPS. No ultrawide support is a bummer for me and the game looks mighty similar to the Xbox One X & Playstation 4 Pro. I do know that the Volumetric setting was the killer and turning it off would actually be better. I'm on the fence, I might pick it up or not. It seems like the type of game I might wait a few months and see how the updates go. I might grab We Happy Few instead.

"fine", everything is fine if you have no standards

@enzyme36: lol dude chill out just a joke. You taken stuff way too serious. Also I have a pretty good pc myself so I don’t need any help to get a good sleep lol

1. This thread is about game quality. Not sales. Most games, including MHW, are objectively better on pc.

Also, Citation needed. Several multiplats ignore this rule.

2. What percent? Give citation.

Games like XCOM, Pillars, Overwatch, Wasteland, Divinity, Pubg, Diablo 3, Fortnite, etc. do not follow this rule.

More importantly, I'm unaware as to how this matters, no matter what system was in mind INITIALLY - it ends up better played and experienced on PC. This is a FACT.

3. That's an excuse, and doesn't change the fact PC gets patches first.

4. This isn't a sales thread. This is a thread about how games are better on PC.

5. Educate myself on what? Most games look and run better on PC. Most games are better experienced on PC, objectively.

Did I say something wrong? Those are facts.

I didn't make this thread. I didn't bash consoles and Neither did the OP. Even if we did, that would be allowed by SW rules and not an irregular offense.

Should I go into 99% of the front page SW threads and call everyone a prick for bashing x/y/z system?

Zaryia, just report his ass lol.

@DragonfireXZ95: Have fun with that pitiful community on PC. The game is pretty much unplayable alone.

@zaryia: Unless it has a decent community the game will be terrible on PC.

@blackhairedhero what makes you think the community will be lacking on PC?

Its been the best selling game on Steam for weeks. It and the deluxe edition have been the top 2.

@lundy86_4: Well, I believe it will, the game has a DRM that can't be ran on processors older than 2014.

@recloud: For Intel. AMD is 2012. Somehow I suspect Capcom will remove this form of DRM, as it is just stupid. There will be sufficient backlash.

Just started installing my copy now. Can't wait.

LOL ReCloud got destroyed by Zaryia.

@pyro1245: Japanese based games generally do far better on consoles specifically the PS4.

Sales data point to the community being large enough for there to be no noticeable grouping issues.

In which case MHW is objectively better on PC. Like most video games.

Citation Needed.

Doing far better doesn't equate to being unable to find a group on the other systems.

@blackhairedhero: 238,000 currently playing it 2 hours after release.

he gets destroyed on every thread with his bogus arguments, you might as well argue with a 12 year old.

Lmao...

@commander: I came to see you running away from the other thread where I'm completely destroying you lol

@lundy86_4: Well were see. If you buy it you will have to let me know. It's one of the few games though that although you could play singleplayer it was practically unplayable without a group. The PS4 version has several million players and at times it could be a pain to find a "GOOD" party.

@blackhairedhero: Picked it up and i've just finished the Great Jagra quest. My bro grabbed as well, so we'll constantly be teaming up.
