The *New* Monster Hunter Frontier FAQ

191 Upvotes

Welcome to the Monster Hunter Frontier subreddit. If you're reading this it means you might have some interest in the game, we'll cover some frequently asked questions here. There currently exists a wiki in this subreddit, but at this point in time it is outdated.

What is Frontier?

  • It's an MMORPG developed by Capcom that uses Monster Hunter 2 (Dos) as its core, it came out in 2007 for the PC and 2010 for the Xbox 360, expanding to other platforms (available on PS3/PS4/WiiU/Vita) as time went by. It was regularly updated with new content until it shutdown in 2020.

So I can't play it anymore?

  • Ever since the release of Monster Hunter Frontier dedicated community members, such as Fist, have been working on ways to make Monster Hunter Frontier playable worldwide. Community members have recreated the server of Monster Hunter Frontier, called Monster Hunter Frontier Community Edition. This allows you to play Monster Hunter Frontier on your own computer.

How do I play?

  • Just follow the YouTube guide of u/SephVIII. They will guide you through the installation process step by step. Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5wyOJ_R1go.
  • Edit: Since the video got taken down, you need to "hunt" for a different source. There could be something on the PewPewDojo Discord.

Is it in English?

  • There is a translation, but it doesn't cover the whole game. If you've ever played a Monster Hunter game, you'll be familiar with the user interface.

Can I play it with my friends?

  • Yes, you can use software such as ZeroTier to invite friends to your local network. You can find a tutorial here: https://youtu.be/jZx8t8ZReTA.
  • Edit: The video is no longer available.

Are there other people I can play with? How do I find them?

  • You can allways ask in this subreddit if you want to play Monster Hunter Frontier together. There currently is a big community on the Discord-Server PewPewDojo. There you can also find Custom Quest Packs, which both simplify the entry into the game and bring new experiences to it. Link to the Discord-Server: https://discord.gg/CFnzbhQ.

I see a lot of variants of Frontier, like Forward and G, are they a different game?

  • No, these are simply the names of expansions. Everyone gets these updates by default. The game is currently at ZZ. It's final iteration.

The game seems pretty difficult and the language barrier isn't helping, I don't know if I can do it...

  • Yes, the game is definitely more challenging than the usual main series games, and the language barrier isn't a nice thing. However IT IS NOT HARD TO BEAT! . Be ready and willing to learn, have translation methods and OCR ready at hand, and use the guides created by the community and then playing frontier won't be much different than playing a localized main series game.

Is there a general guide to help me get through the early game and mid game (Low Rank & High Rank) of Monster Hunter Frontier?

I heard that there will be new weapons in Monster Hunter Frontier. How do I unlock the Magnet Spike?

Help! Wanting to get into the game and wondering what server to join

7 Upvotes

I've only ever played MH solo but from what I've seen of this game soloing may be a bit above my paygrade. so i was wondering what the best server to join would be for an an Australian based player.

I've heard rain is bigger but possibly more toxic with worst endgame and that rain is smaller (probably empty in aus too) but with better endgame?

Monster Hunter Frontier de A à Z EP 2 (HR5) : La lance du siècle

1 Upvotes

Hey hunters!

Episode 2 of my Monster Hunter Frontier Let's Play is now live!

I'm continuing my journey through Frontier, taking on new monsters, progressing through the early game, and discovering what makes this version of Monster Hunter so unique. As someone experiencing it in depth, it's been a blast so far.

If you've played Frontier before, I'd love to know:

  • What monsters gave you the most trouble early on?
  • Any tips (without major spoilers!) for a new hunter?

I hope you enjoy the episode, and thanks to everyone who checked out the first one!

All 48 non lbg/hbg supreme weapons done! 2248 total supreme materials because they cost 50 each pre-compression 😅 started this back in Forward.5 and finished a year later. Gotta say I really appreciate all the Supreme monsters alot more now except for Teo, he's still an awful boring fight.

Question Progress guides for beginners?

7 Upvotes

I have just started playing Frontier and this is my first MH pre-world. Since the game isn't fully translated to english and is lacking a lot of the QoL changes after 5th gen it is kinda hard for me to actually understand what armors / weapons etc to use.

Are there any progression guides for specific weapons or something similar? I'm rn using Sword & Shield for the first time but I'd be open to using any of the frontier originals (if I'd know where to unlock them)
