    Thanks for the tips guys. Too many weapons and I suck at all of them :eek:

    Hmm weird, normally when it "worked", when I was out of ammo the top screen read RELOAD. Then when I couldn't reload, it just showed the bullets red, no RELOAD words. Maybe a glitch? I figured out how to reload by swipe/hold down shield but he just makes the movement like he's going to reload and doesn't. I got it to work earlier so it's not like I'm hitting it wrong..

    Got this working great on my JB 5S with the English patch. I might JB my retina mini and pair up my ps3 controller for this.

    Sorry for off-topic but does anyone have any other Jspanese only games that I may as well buy whilst I'm here? I bought 3000 JYEN from play-Asia so I got change I need to spend before I take my account back to my own region. Just pm me if you don't wanna send the the thread off topic.

    My favorite weapon is the Dual Swords. They are quite easy to use, but they lose sharpness quite fast.

    GS, Hammers, Lances and SnS for me :)

    Was never a huge fan of Duals since my first MH, but i did use them (all weapons actually) a lot. Duals are most effective on Chameleos and Crimson Fatalis in this MH.

    I just like the Devil Dance. The other weapons are too "simple" and not fast enough for me, but damn, some monsters are just a pain with DS. I'm sure it was the Cephadrome the sucker which made me rage quit the game.

    I wish Namco could answer to this with a port of Gods Eater Burst (or 2). Although I hate that in that game there's no exploration, I like more its battles and how everything is more straightforward. But Namco just doesn't give a damn about iOS (Tekken Arena, the new Soul Calibur crap, etcetcetc) so it won't happen :(

    Just using a high rank Ceanataur Greatsword when i decided to go back to farm Daora to farm for her materials and forgot that i could headlock her to death. Joys of MHFU which I believe was remedied in MHP3. :D

    So, while waiting patiently for the Western release and checking on Google whether anything new had been silently announced, I came across this:
    http://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/data/pdf/explanation/2013/full/explanation_2013_full_03.pdf
    In a nutshell, it mentions that part of Capcom's yearly plan regarding the mobile platform includes the release of Monster Hunter Freedom Unite on iOS during the month of May. Now, this could be seen simply as the acknowledgement of the Japanese release (plus, I don't know when the document was created, which could further mean that the announcement in question only concerned the Japanese market). However, the fact that the game is called "Freedom Unite", and not simply "Portable 2nd G" gives me hope that the tidbit in the document referred to a global release (which was almost a given, with the details you guys and the guys over on NeoGaf have been discovering, but it'd be nice to hear it straight from the horse's mouth)! Sorry if this is old news, I just figured it might interest some of you.

    Plus, if it might interest you, there's also mention of the release of a game called Monster Hunter Smart later this year, along with a first screenshot of the game in portrait mode, in the link I posted.

    ^Great find!

    That MH Smart... I believe i saw a video for that before, and there's a high chance it has a thread here already in the upcoming games.

    I finally settled on a weapon (long sword) and now I'm enjoying the game! I actually thought I settled on duals (I think they're the easiest for me to use) but then I realized I couldn't handle them damaging so fast.

    Actually the first 3-4 hours were tough and half was fun but the other half made me wonder what was so great about this series. After I got the hang of it, I played for maybe 4 hours straight. I looked up guides online to help me find some items and I got addicted. This is bad :(

    purple one is poison coating which adds poison to the bow, red one is power coating which deals more dmg per shot, white one i kinda forgot what it is though, should be multiple shot, as in it shoots out a few arrow in an arc in one shot iirc

    this sucks.. i even went as far as getting zeusmos to sign and install the app. it installs, but it crashes as soon as you open the app, "capcom" logo shows for a split second then crashes. Just wasted $15. this is really REALLY frustrating

    might have trouble refunding that if you created an account just for it...

    good luck though. I want so bad to play this but if I cant read menus etc, Im just not messing around.

    For everyone on IOS 7.1 that can't jailbreak. Do not freaking update anymore. The pic shows that it's been jailbroken so it's possible it might be out soon. No idea.

    But once it's out, you'll have no problem installing the patch from cydia. Just have to have the game. So hopefully, for everyone who hasn't had theirs translated yet, it'll be possible in the neat future.
