The Tri community community is unlike any other. Thank you guys for what you've done! Again the links are in the description, if you have any questions feel free to let me know.

Tri's system to upgrade low rank armors past a defense threshold to equal the high rank ones using high rank materials, but with different skills from the high rank armors was the coolest, and most interesting part of the game balance in it. It's the system I miss the most about playing Tri back the day, and the series has never revisited the mechanic.

Beta tester here, you've absolutely nailed this video on it's head, especially that ending!

This game means the absolute world to me. I'm so happy to see this finally happen. Thanks to the devs who've worked to make this happen!

I did NOT just start actually crying when the flute atarted playing at the end Loc Lac, Be Eternal :')

*Thirteen people with a Wii Speak. But holy shit I am so excited to see such progress on the game's online portion potentially returning to the public again. To all those people working on, and testing out the content, godspeed, and thank you; may we hopefully meet again in Loc Lac City.

This almost made me cry. I can't wait to return to Loc Lac. The nostalgia is incredibly strong. Reminding me about the word "after" being censored hit me. Remember people typing guild tags in their profile box, or text art like the jeep in this video? Remember the out of bounds glitch by shooting someone with pellet when they fell from Rathian's nest in Moga Woods? Cluster bombing Alatreon with strangers? When you found a group that knew how to use the binder and gong on HR Jhen at the right time? I'm so excited.

It's always so heartwarming to see a community come together to do something to this scale just out of passion

Brings a tear to my eye. Been playing since I got Tri for my 11th birthday. Im 24 now and since then, I’ve gotten every western release Monster Hunter when they come out. And as nice as they all are, there was just something so cozy and mystical about Loc Lac that will always have a place in my heart. It complimented Moga Village’s calm, almost somber tone. I’ve missed it greatly and am happy it’s back.

this brought some actual tears to my eyes, MH Tri was my first monster hunter but it was also probably one of the most important things to me when i was in not such a good place and im looking forward to booting up my old wii again!

Both this and the Frontier rebirth just goes to show how dedicated the MH community is to these older titles.

I don't even play Monster Hunter, but I am fully aware the pure willpower, dedication, and skill necessary to resurrect an abandoned game. This is hardcore stuff, make no mistake Edit: I play monster hunter now. Not this one, but Rise

I can't describe how exciting it is to see the community so excited for this!

This legitimately brought tears to my eyes. I can't wait to get back in to Loc Lac. I know it won't be quite the same as I have lost contact with those hunters but I need this in my life.

"if I have a nickel every time a 3rd iteration of a famous franchise had controversies over water, but had great nostalgia, i would have 2 nickels, which isn't alot but it's weird that it happened twice"

This is AMAZING! I was just rewatching your previous Loc Lac video, and said to myself "the instant these servers come back online, I'm playing Tri." Perfect timing! I can't wait to hunt with you all under the waves.

Truly astonishing work from the devs. I can’t believe I will have the chance to revisit my childhood memories. Loc Lac, BE ETERNAL!!!

To this day, I still love MH3. It was my entry to this series that I now adore.

This is such a FeelsGoodMan moment given how much I enjoyed this game all those years ago. This game is very unique and very much something people need to experience for themselves in the modern day.

You know… the multiplayer aspect is disappearing more and more… never have I’ve seen a 10 people online city since MH1 on ps2 (iceborn couldn’t fix it), you don’t eat together anymore, you don’t head out the gate together anymore (just press r2), you can’t even invite your friends to dinner with a voucher anymore. I’m glad you can see your friends in the whole village in rise at least, but I still wish there was a huge town… with like 20 to 30 people chilling there… feeling lively

Ah I commented a year ago on your channel with another account I remember! I'm so happy to see this and Tri was always my favourite Monster Hunter Game. It was also my first one. It sounds weird but I enjoyed High Rank end game more than Master Rank cause of time consumption and being able to clear quests way more often with groups. And I'm also not a hard core gamer (yes I did play MR afterwards always). But Tri just is special to me. The environments, the music, Moga, Loc Lac. Just everything

It's so good to see you back making MH videos. As much as I like your main channel, Flyann 2 videos are always some of my favorite

This was my first game and quickly one of my favorite games of all time. It created a love for the series that now is muuuuch greater. I remember spending HOURS in loc lac just talking to others and made a couple of friends. The sad thing though was that when the servers died that was it, they were gone.

This is just absolutely incredible. Tri was my first MH game as well and I'm so glad I got to experience it's online when it was active. I'll definitely look into jumping back into this on Dolphin!

The ending to me has such a hunter vibe to it. Nature in monster hunter is about balance, and now it's time the balance is set right again. Loc Lac was a home to me, and I can't wait to return

i was just wondering how the progress for this was going the other day, so cool that its made leaps and bounds. thanks for sharing and bringing attention to this project !

Dang.. 09:07 I got chills down my spine when that Ceadeus tracks start to play

This game was a majority of my child hood and solified my love for MH. The community was the best part and i didnt have many friends irl growing up having made friends on MH tri really was amazing

Was my first MH game, it has a special place in my heart, racked up over 1k hours as a teen, good times

Wow this is awesome. I remember back in 2014-2015 looking up if anyone had done this and reading that it wasn't possible, then sharing the news with my brother. I'd love to set this up on my Wii so we can play online again, also curious to know if you could cross-play with Dolphin and the Wii. Great video btw, you pull off a good mix of professional and natural with your writing and speech.

I'm genuinely impressed. The mosnter hunter community (I'm talking pre-world games) is honestly amazing and incredibly supportive. I remember the hours upon hours of fun I had with people on P3rd and 4U and I'm really happy that a people who never played the games before get to have the chance to have the experiences I got with the games back in the day.

It's incredible to see the dedication and skill that communities bring to bear for passion projects like these. I likely won't come join you, seeing as I don't have much time to game anymore, but I also spent my fair share of a great time in Monster Hunter Tri and so it brought me true joy to hear that people still enjoy the game and are bringing it back to full glory!

You guys actually fucking did it holy shit ! W community

MH4U was the entry that got me hooked on the series, and I didn't even know that Dundorma originated in Dos until I watched this! Loc Lac is amazing, too; I can't wait for this project to go public so I experience more MH history!

I hear rumblings of a grand city that was abandoned by its founders some years back, being rebuilt anew by the people that once called it home. I was a novice hunter back then, never got to see it and join others in the thrill of the hunt. But now with word of that place returning to life once more as a hub for hunters, and more experience under my own belt, I think this time I'll have to do my best to give this great desert city a visit. I can't wait to see this place with my own eyes for the first time!

This is most impressive. This brings back so many memories of the experiences shared with so many other hunters. All them evenings sleep bombing alatreon... Modular bowguns was one of the features I missed so much too. Thank you for sharing this.

I'm a huge fan of your videos, thanks for giving us this. We love you

This legit made my day, so great to see the MH community come together once again to resurrect Tri and Loc Lac, the nostalgia's coming back to me!

I remember playing this game like it was yesterday almost. My first monster hunter game and I loved playing every bit of it. Never forget how much work it was to get simple things back then; looking at you bomb casings

Bro that is so so so hype!! I play TRI on my wii in 2010 it was my second time playing a monsterhunter game i put 600+hours in when i was 12 and it really sparked a love a passion for the series. I’ll definitely be checking this out with my brother !! Thank you ❤

This brings back so many wonderful memories. It brings a tear to my eye. Sincerely. It's like reflecting on my greenhorn self asking the vets who were kind enough to help. Imagine asking help for a great jaggi. My goodness. But he did. That greatsword hunter with diablos sword and chest armor with everything else different. I think I recall the arena coin earned headband. But he stood by, watching me hunt, told me it was okay to back off and heal, to not be greedy with my hits. Or other tips. Once he seen I was improving he jumped in. It felt so forfilling. I was such a noob, I thought you had to share carves. 😔 But even till this day, his wise words ring in my head, and repeat out my mouth when I teach the next generations. It just brought me a different feeling. Me and my quropecco gunner Headwear because yeah sure- I could beat the quropecco in the menu arena with the duel blades as choice but great Jagged? No he was too hard for some stupid reason. Lmfao. I'll never understand my noob self. Nevertheless, this brought me a tear. I always hope to meet that Master who taught me, I know it's likely impossible. But I still thank all those hunters helping out others seeking help just the same.

I'm using tilt controls!

Omgggg that bundle you showed off with that controller was my first ever monster hunter game!

Immediate subscribe material! I've been craving old-school MonHun content for a while, and your heartfelt presentation of this subject hits the spot!

never underestimate a determined and extremely loyal fanbase, such people can and often will impress you.

If it's possible for them to modify the game at all PLEASE ask them to make deviljho eat his own tail lol

Never got all that in to a Monster Hunter game before but I remember your previous video about getting Tri working again. Video game preservation projects like this make me smile man. Other entertainment mediums are way easier to preserve and revisit but video games are art too and deserved to be preserved.

dear god thank you for this, i've been playing since the ps2 days but TRI was just an awesome experience that i still miss to this day

I love that I'm excited about being able to say "after" when this opens up haha It still remains a minor joke to me that each time I play a new MH game with chat I type the word "after" to see if it's censored or not 😂

I had 800 hours online combined in MH and MH Tri; I've tried the newer games but never liked any of them enough to play. MH graphics are hard to look at now, but Tri still looks great. I would play Tri online in an instant

Man i remember back in 2009/10 i went to grab my own copy of MH Tri after borrowing it from a friend. Had to show the cashier my identity to prove I was already 12. Now i turn 26 next month, time flies.

This is so awesome! I never had the option to play online back in the days and therefore couldn't do any high rank content. I mainly played MHP3rd after that, so it's not like I missed out on a lot but still, to have the option to play Tri in its entirety again after almost a decade is insane. Mad props to the dedicated team that made this possible.

The online features of MHTri was never the same or as supreme as this one. You can name the room, pass over the room. Just those two things made it so amazing. You had to communicate to hunt and just naming the room set the standard for your online interaction.

Yea but does the deviljo eat its own tail?

Yooo I think i gonna cry. Monster Hunter Tri was my first game in the series and the game i have the best online expierence with. As you said Loc Lac just feels different. I made so many friends with random people. It just felt like a living city. I had some awesome Summerbreaks with friends and one time my best friend and i played for over 20 hours (i think we were around 24 or 25) and at the end we beat Alatreon after some dude who joined our lobby teached us the fight. At some point i also helped new players learn the game and helped them farm for their gear. In the newer games i mostly play solo and only play online with friends. The online just is not the same. Like you said even in 3Ultimate the Online feels different. I am so happy about this news.

So many good memories... I remember buying the exact same bundle you did and I still have the controller!

I've never played Monster Hunter Tri, I played 3U and it was weird, like if the content there did not belong, like an old class in a low budget mmo that just got reworked, everything is there, but looks and feels weird, in short I was disappointed, but when I see people talking about Tri, they are describing the game that was meant to be and honestly, I can't wait to give it a... tri

Omg your laugh is so snuggly wuggly cute boy I'm literally shaking

I've been waiting for this for so many years! Finally I'll be able to finish my Alatreon armor!

thisi s just amazing, so many memories on MH tri, my first MH game, loved so much

this was my first Monster hunter experience when i was 10 or so and i was flashed instantly and played mhfu with my nephew for hundreds of hours. the music alone makes me happy :)

I just found this channel and was ready to binge watch everything only to find out there's only 5 videos. I don't know what to do anymore I already gave up on being productive today

this is great ! stuff like this makes me wonder if one day we will be able to experience monster hunter frontier

So awesome to see this happening. Tri was the first Monster Hunter game I ever played, and so much of it is etched into my memories. I've even gone back to play it offline in the past year, and it's still pretty special. And the online was certainly the most special part of it. I really feel that the loss of dedicated "town" hubs is to the detriment of the more modern games. I get the handheld ones, but it would have been great to have in, say, World. I'll definitely have to see about getting set up to play online again, once this project is open to the public.

Wow, I played a lot of Tri and definitely had a USB keyboard plugged in, but I never knew about the microphone or heard anyone using it. Also I completely forgot about the housing, IIRC mine was completely full of volcanoes and airships. Loved watching this.

Absolutely amazing!! This makes me so happy to see, and I can't wait to play again.

You are an real OG for the ceadeus theme song. Goosebumps!!

Hugely excited for these news! Never played Tri, and even Ultimate I only played the demo for and it didn't really click, but this is great to see. Trying to rope my hunter friends into the experience too, can't wait for it all to go live!

I had literally watched your "lost to time" video with Tri's no longer available servers literally 2 or 3 months ago since funny enough was able to find out im a 1st generation hunter as well as a 5th too so with already 300 hours in MH5 within barley 2 months its safe to say i did my research on the game franchise and let me tell you seeing this vid which i didn't even think was ever gonna happen , HAPPEN! its so surreal and crazy how fans who love the series as much as i do were able to bring back something gone for almost a decade. Wow such love and loyalty to a well deserved game, hopefully im able to play with my wii one day!

Once again , i'm going to do my part by sharing this video💪

8:26 yes, there was this one guy at my school whose name was just simon, who also got the game at some point and told us that he was not allowed to use his normal name. Simon. not more. and so he was forced to run around as 2imon and got that as a nickname from us.

PLEASE look at Deviljho to see if he can eat his own tail!

This is really amazing, the amount of love and work the team put into this is mind boggling

woah, nostalgia hit really bad this time... Thanks for bringing this to us, mate!

This game was my first monster hunter game. So many memories! I can't wait till I can play again!

Omg I just few weeks ago was able to get the MhTri Private server working for myself. I can't wait to again experience the multiplayer that I say much adored when I was a kid

I never got to play Monster Hunter Tri 😵 Thank you so much for this! You guys rock!. ❤❤❤❤❤ I can't wait to go try the water combat I feel like it looks amazing!.

This was my first ever MH game I played. I got it on a whim, tried it out and fell in love. I loved using the motion attack with the Wii Mote. Underwater battling was fun to master.

MH3 is comming back to his former glory!

dude can't wait to play this, never had the chance to play tri but damn i'm hyped ^^

KZfaq shot this video suggestion straight to my heart. Holy shit it's amazing to see Tri back in this way, it was my introduction into MonHun and holds a special place, Loc Lac was a beautiful place.

Tri was such a huge part of my life, it’s what got me into MH So happy to see it back :,)

This is what I'v been waiting for! So hyped to play my first Mon Hun again!

tri was my childhood, I played it on the wii with my older brothers and some of their friends. this is amazing, I am glad a piece of gaming history can be preserved in this way

Shit, when i heared the Ceadeus Battle Theme at 9:07, i almost started crying it made me remember all the good times in 2009, im glad that what i experienced a long time ago, is now coming back to be played again by veterans and newbie

Hey, i'm long term MH fan, i've pick up couple of months ago MH TRI U on emu and cleared whole HR village quests. Then, honestly, i kinda give up on the guild hall quests (and whole G rank with it) because they're intended for multiplayer and hunt as solo is not really enoyable. Now seeing this video really gave me such a huge hype to join the community and start to hunt all these guild missions together. Dream becoming reality, thank you so much and to whole MH community! See you soon ingame fellow hunters!

Y'know... I started my career in MHFU on the PSP and never actually owned a Wii. My only experience with Tri was doing village quests at my friend's house on her account and feeling like it was only half of a game somehow. Now, thanks to you, I finally know why I felt that way and that without access to the online mode that I was definitely correct in that feeling (though coming in hot off MHFU with the largest cast of monsters to date afaik certainly didn't help). Hearing you talk about the lobbies and features that I completely missed out on makes me really regret never getting a chance to try Tri to the fullest it could offer so maybe I'll make the attempt at catching up here if I can.

Looks over at Alatreon lance in the corner. Its time.

Never got the chance to experience this game because I never had a Wii growing up but I remember watching a lot of yt videos about tri. I'm so damn excited to play it now

I still miss my old maxxed save that I'd play with my friends from the US, when the origin servers shut down, I cried for days, I am gonna cry again seeing this... Thank you, Thank you so much... I love these developers...

Beautiful words in the end of the video man, thats exactly the feeling Amazing work by everyone involved, its hard to put into words how amazing this is, all i can say is that Monster hunter community is the gaming comunity im most proud to be a part of

For anyone coming back to this video that is curious, the beta is now open to all! Instructions in their discord server and seems to be running smoothly so far!

I began playing mh games on the wii u with mh3u, it was great probably the best times i ever had playing video games, yes the games was very good but i think what keept me playing was the social element even when i played (2016) years after the release there was so many people to meet a socialise, and i made great friends tanks to this game. Now i do not have a wii U anymore but i'm still playing mh3u, solo tho it's still good but it lacks people you know. The fact that a old school mh like tri is revived and we can play together again brings a tear to my eye, i think a lot of the social element has been lost since the newer title and i can't wait to recover that like i was in 2016 again, mh is my favorite franchise and seeign it get preserved it's really heart warming to me.

Oh my god, im so excited to go and play tri with people! (I could never get a stable connection on my wii back in the day :( )

I played a bit of tri online but I started with MH1 on ps2. Your first online hunts are deffinetly very memorable. I also had a usb keyboard plugged into my ps2 to chat. Great times

This is insane. So much nostalgia flows through my head right now. I really loved the game and I'm glad that this was my first MH. The online environment always felt so casual if your not trying to farm alatreon specifically. When I played Gen Ultimate, I couldn't even find people to play with me. Everyone was just speedrunning the key quests to fight these apex variants. If you wanted to play anything else, you're likely out of luck. I even had to wait for over an hour on a friday afternoon to do my urgent Valstrax quest. The fking flagship monster.

HOLY MOLY! good work actually doing this!

I've been waiting for this, i know you'll make a video about this

I will probably not get around to put ay meaningful time into this game again, but it makes me so happy to know it's there

I had goosebumbs the whole video with the music and the clips. Man i loved and lived that game
