by

Summary

  • Capcom released an update for Monster Hunter Wilds fixing bugs and tweaking popular farming locations.
  • PC players encountered performance and technical issues at launch, prompting Capcom to address them.
  • The latest Wilds update addresses a variety of gameplay bugs, crashes, and unannounced changes like the Farming location nerf.

Update 1.000.05.00 patch notes for Monster Hunter Wilds, released by Capcom, addresses various bugs and problems, as well as what appears to be a modification in a frequently utilized farming spot. The past couple of weeks have been hectic for Capcom due to the overwhelming success of Monster Hunter Wilds. This game has shattered sales and player records for the series, making it a triumph for the company.

Although the game has been successful, it hasn’t been without its challenges. At the outset, PC players encountered performance and technical problems, leading Capcom to release a statement detailing potential solutions. Regrettably, Monster Hunter Wilds has also experienced glitches, including one that halted campaign progress. Capcom is still releasing updates for the game, with the latest one seeming to tackle more than just bugs.

The newest version of Monster Hunter Wilds is now available, bringing essential improvements to several gameplay issues. Notably, Capcom has disclosed parts of the patch notes for this update, which include resolving problems with the Grill a Meal and Ingredient Center unlocking, as well as unclogging the progression in Chapter 5-2. The update also takes care of various game crashes, recurring tutorials at the Smithy, and an odd issue where monster parts were appearing to change into parts from entirely different creatures.

After receiving recent updates, players started noticing unexpected alterations within the patch, including some modifications in Monster Hunter Wilds’ Nightflower Pollen farming location that appears to have been adjusted. This pollen is crucial for earning Gold Tickets for Melding and Relics, allowing players to amass significantly more items than initially intended by Capcom. Originally, the pollen would only appear during specific moon phases; however, a method was discovered to farm it, enabling players to skip the phase requirements.

Though there are still some areas for improvement at Capcom, they’ve been addressing known problems like the inability to edit the Hunter Profile or network glitches when using the SOS flare system in Monster Hunter Wilds. Despite these issues, new content is consistently being released for the game. As with previous installments in the series, Limited-Time Event Quests began rolling out for Monster Hunter Wilds earlier this month, offering unique rewards to players who finish them within the designated timeframe. Rewards include valuable resources like armor spheres and exclusive gear such as the Expedition Headgear α.
