For the Open Beta of Monster Hunter Online in Dec 16, Let me introduce some detail for you guys.

personally I am a native chinese who studied abroad in Canada. So I can introduce the detailes of the current gameplay of the MHOL for you guys.

1, The game right now has a thing kind of similar to the fatigue system in Dragon Nest and Dungeon Fighter Online called “狩猎券(hunting ticket)” .You need to pay the hunting ticket in order to ge in the map and hunt the monster. Which is kind of lame but the limit actually enough for you to enjoy the game with out get bothered by it. It resupplied 10 tickets per day in 3 a.m of Beijing time and 20 more free tickets per week(resupplied every Thursday 3 a.m. of Beijing time). You can hold up to 30 tickets. There is store in game sells the tickets, you can buy 6 of them per day in the store. The currency that spend to buy them is the in game currency not the microtransaction one. Pay for the VIP could help you get 2 or 4 more ticket per day if you reached VIP3 or VIP6(the longer you pay for the VIP duration the higher VIP rank you get.) but there is no way to pay by paypal or visa or credit card so.......I will leave that up to you guys. But anyways, the amount of the tickets is totally enough for you to play the game even you don't pay anything for tencent.

2, there is one more stupid thing in the game right now is they got a daily limited for the experience income, and it's really easy to reach that limit just simply by doing the main quests. We don't exactly know what's the purpose of this limit, might for preventing the nerds reach the top rank by playing day and night in couple days.

3, As I mentioned on top. There is many MMO elements been added in the game like the NPC quests. And of course as a F2P game. Microtransaction does exist. Mainly is the costume, high quality items and VIP. But for the equipment like weapons and armors in game, you still have to craft it by beating the monster and gather the materials. There is no other way to get the equipments and no way to buff you player stats directly(Even though there is a exchange avaliable after you reached level 25 but you still cant buy those materials that comes form broken parts), so technically P2W doesn't exist.

4, Currently the servers is not big enough for all the players who want to try the game to play. So in 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. of Beijing time most of the server will need to wait in quese especially you are not a VIP member. But due to the time difference I think that won't be a problem for you guys. Just mention it.

5, The graphic is fantastic, just let me say this word again. FANTASTIC. The game itself support DX11 and there is high-res texture patch allow to download in the offical webside. I bet you guys never seen how a rathian exactly looks like behind the pixels of all those other monster hunter versions. And due to the graphic is updated, the combat feeling and the impact feeling had a great improvement.

6, The game has the automatic matching system for team uping random player in hunting. And most of the materials that lootted form the moster are able to trade(except those materials which provided by breaking parts of the monster). There are people always asking for trade through boradcast. It's a easy way to get the materials you want if you dont have enough hunting ticket or don't want to gather them by yourself. But for people who don't know chinese might be hard.

7, About the language using in chinese server. English is totally fine to use. But please try not to any language other than english and chinese in random team and public area. The purer the races a country have. The stronger the racism is. And for the special racism that chinese people have. They perfer people from europe and america. Which is stupid. So please stick with english and chinese in public area and random teams for preventing anything uncomfortable happened

8， About the difficulty of the hunting. For being friendly to most of the new players. The difficulty of the monsters in chapter 1 to 3 are decreased. If you played any MH before you should get through them pretty easy. But sinse chapter 4, everything goes back to how hard it should be. And I heard about the rathian in MHOL is harder than any other version of the MHs

Thats basically everything I can come up now. If I remembered anything important. I will add it later
