Monster Hunter Freedom 2
Gameplay
Most Quests in Monster Hunter Freedom 2 is to kill one or two 'Boss' class monsters. Smaller quests at the beginning will involve gathering items and killing small creatures.
Quests are generally divided into three difficulty levels: those from the Village Chief, known as 'Elder' quests; those for a lower Hunter Rank (HR3 or lower)from the Guild; those for hunters who have obtained higher Hunter Ranks (HR4 or above), also from the Guild, and lastly there are Treasure hunting Quests given by Treshi the Treasure Hunter. Hunters can always accept quests that are available for the same or lower Hunter Rank, but cannot take quests or join quests initiated by other higher Ranked players, unless they have the required Hunter Rank (i.e. if an HR5 player initiates a quest requiring an HR of 4, HRs 4, 5 and 6 may join while HRs 1, 2 and 3 may not). There are also quests offered by the village's Training School. Quests offered by the Training school require no items or equipment; pre-made equipment and item sets are supplied. Treasure hunting quests are gathering quests with rare items that you cannot keep but are awarded points to add to your ending score, which you are rewarded for.
The quests that are taken from the Village Elder are quests specific to single player, so they are also sometimes considered "lower" rank quests. Monsters inside these quests are weakened in terms of their hit points to suit a single hunter quest, but they only offer basic materials that can only create weapons of lower rarity.
Lower Hunter Rank quests from the guild offers the same materials as Elder quests, but they allow up to 4 Hunters via ad-hoc play or XLink Kai. Monsters have slightly increased hit points in this type of quest.
Higher Hunter Rank quests are considered the most difficult in the game, and are the equivalent of 'G' rank missions in Monster Hunter Freedom and Monster Hunter G. Besides considerable hitpoint increases, monsters have greatly increased damage and can feature new attack moves, making them harder to defeat. Many of the rarest materials can only be found in this type of quest. These rare materials can be used to create rare and powerful equipment that can kill monsters easier,but in return you will start in a random area and supplies will not be delivered until the battle is nearly done.
Downloadable quests often provide special materials that can create bonus equipment that cannot be created otherwise
Weapon
The weapon in this game are mostly just like Monster Hunter Freedom, with four new weapon added, the four weapons are, Long Sword, Gunlance, Hunting Horn, and the Bow. Try and get the feeling of the new weapon yourself.

Monster Hunter Freedom/Portable
Monster Hunter Freedom/Monster Hunter Portable
Monster Hunter Freedom is RPG for the PSP. In this game, you have to complete quests in order to improve your hunter rank . This game is the third installation in the Monster Hunter series and is based mostly on the second game, Monster Hunter G. However, this game has been changed a little, so that players can complete most quests alone. It has been criticized for its unusually long loading-screens and its slow pacing, however, both of them have been improved in this sequel.
Gameplay
Just like Monster Hunter and Monster Hunter G, the players are completing quests and gathering materials to upgrade their equipment in order to advance in this game. The more rare the items and equipment, the stronger the main physical statistics of the characters will be. Unlike other hack 'n' slash games, in this game the players need plans and skill in order to overcome large monsters instead of using brute force. There are many weapons which the hunter can use to bring down the monsters, there are sword and shield, great sword, dual swords, hammer, lance, bowgun and the heavy bowgun. Each requires a variety of items to create which are acquired by completing quests, and collecting the spoils carved from monsters or found on the ground.
Single Player
In this mode the player can do quests from the village elder, and enter the Offline Gathering Hall to do guild quests alone, and buy items to aid them in their quest. The player can also tend to a farm to harvest useful items.
Multiplayer
The players can go on quests with other monster hunter players via the PSP's adhoc when they enter the Online Gathering Hall. They can exchange guild cards which keep track of the characters stats. They can also go on treasure hunting quests. While the characters are waiting for others to join their quests there is a table they can sit at. While sitting at the table, you can push the different directions on the d-pad to perform various animations such as swinging their beer mug, or get drunk and pass out. Players can also use third party software to connect and play with other players over the internet.
