And oh lawd, those charging piggies. There were few times when they actually charged me out of the way of a bigger monster's charge... though that was nothing compared to the times when they'd push me into harm's way. 8/
I thought Tigrex was in the game just for being a "mascot" boss for MHF2 as Rathalos was for MHF1. Blah. I'll miss him mostly for nostalgia's sake; felt very awesome after felling him for the first time (Just like when I killed my first ever Yian Kutku, LOL).
That sucks about the CPP.
Tigrex can't really be compared to Rathalos in that way. Rathalos is literally the flagship monster for the entire SERIES. Many people associate the series with him, and he's known to all Monster Hunter players because of this.
Tigrex was a major monster in one game, not even its expansion which replaced him with Naruga(which IS in the game). Every game has a flagship monster, but Rathalos is, as I said, essentially the flagship monster for the series, not a single game. He's also been in every single Monster Hunter that's ever existed (1, F1, 2, F2, FU, Tri, P3rd, 3U, Frontier, and even the crappy spin off games).
I honestly don't know why he wasn't included when he was in P3rd though. They went through all this effort to revamp him into not a completely broken hitbox monster, and then throw it away for no reason. I don't get it. I don't understand the developers at this point, really. They're so off and on with which monsters should be in the game and which shouldn't, it makes no sense to me. Every console MH should be the ultimate version in comparison to all the other versions currently out. While in a way this is, it should still include every old monster. I don't understand why they are so random with what they exclude in each game. If they went through the effort to revamp the monster for the new engine, there's really no excuse I can think of for why they won't include said monster in a new game.
This all goes for Akantor, Ukanlos, and Bulldrome as well. Amatsu too. When they release a new version they give enough new monsters and variants to make it worth your purchase, so I don't understand any need to exclude anything.
I also think they should bring back areas. I liked that they brought back areas in FU, but they never did that again. With MH4 we will have 4 sets of areas, one for each generation. It would be absolutely amazing to have the variety of all 4 sets to go on hunts in. Hell, even add a system that randomizes which you end up in. So for example, the quest info just says "Jungle" but you have no idea WHICH jungle you'll end up in. That would be cool.
