/mhg/ - PC FAQ

>CAN I RUN IT?
Yes, if you have a real videocard of any sort you can run it at least at 30 FPS.

>CAN I RUN IT AT MAX SETTINGS?
Probably not, the absolute highest aka max settings include resource hogs like 64bit dynamic range light. Without volumetric rendering and motion blur, which actively worsen the look, a midtier GPU (e.g. RX580 8GB, 160 bucks as of march 2020) will run on high settings at 70-90fps with the High Res texture pack installed.

>SO WHAT DO?
Check your specs on youtube or simply buy and test it, steam lets you refund games.

>WHAT WEAPON SHOULD I USE? WHAT'S THE BEST WEAPON? WHAT WEAPON WON'T GET ME LAUGHED AT?
All weapons are worth playing. Take the time to try them all out and decide for yourself what you want to play.

>CONTENT PARITY?
The PC version released with all of the balance updates that consoles have received, but none of the content updates. Those will be added later on at an accelerated pace. By april 2020 all content will be synced.

>CAN I CHANGE MY HUNTER'S APPEARANCE AFTER STARTING THE GAME?
Hair styles, makeup/tattoos and underclothing can be changed whenever you want via the item box in your room. Everything else (gender, facial structure, skin color, voice, and expressions) will require a paid voucher.
To edit your Palico, use the respective paid palico voucher.

>HELPFUL TIPS
Save yourself the trouble now and capture every monster at least once. You'll thank yourself later.
Radial menu/item shortcuts are saved with item loadouts. Save your loadouts if you want to keep any changes you've made.
My weapon > your weapon.
Dodging while running away from a monster will let you perform a "superman dive" with massive i-frames.
