sad times indeed, but I also got my share of problems :(

wifi is a bit unstable and gamepad also likes to disconnect frequently.
if this gets worse I have to contact customer support :(

After screwing up other peoples' Brachydios urgents quite a few times, i know how it feels.

G-Rankers beware ... I've joined your rank.
I will tripple cart faster than you can say 'omg noob'

but the fun starts right now from what i've heard ... so time to farm for my armor

edit:
someone else having the problem after the latest wiiu update when you try to end the game via home button the wii u crashes ? 
tried it 2 or 3 times, crashed every time (music from wiiu menu still there but not going to the menu)

Anyone online right now and feel like questing?

trying to farm for materials to create my rath heart z gear, gonna try again in about 2 hrs, if anyone wants too have some fun. :)

Finally tore through my Brachydios urgent, then tooled around in HR5 a little: Baleful Giggi and Jade Barroth (neither of whom are that bad) and Uragaan (who's always a pain).

Though i really need to upgrade my lance and branch out elementally. Also need to do the same with my longsword selection.

Met Kenology tonight (sorry to bail, a few low-rank Barioth was all i really needed, wanted to get onto HR4 quests), and apparently i hit the five HR4 key-quests without knowing what they were: Baleful/Jade, Baleful Giggi, Jade Barroth, and Zinogre

I'm at the Urgent to go to HR 8. I already beat the stupid lava water thing, but had people bail during my urgent and decided to turn the blasted game off.

It's so annoying when that happens. It shouldn't be allowed to. I know some people play online just to cancel midway through a quest.

Sometimes disconnects just happen, even in the critical quests. You just have to hope that, if it's going to happen, it's right near the end when you can finish off the monster yourself (which i have done a couple of times)
