Interview About Frontier's 10th Anniversary (Source: https://game-maniax.com/archives/detail/8784)


 * Teruki Miyashita (The producer of Monster Hunter Frontier) thanks the long term players for sticking with the Frontier series for the past ten years, even though there has been difficulties and problems from time to time.
 * Teruki Miyashita says that each of the players stayed with Frontier due to them wanting to hunt down monsters, make powerful equipment, and to become stronger as hunters. The Frontier Team continue to develop and evolve the game in order to fit with what the players want. Due to players responding to these changes and new features in the game, the Frontier Team have been able to make changes when need be.
 * In those ten years, some improvement and changes have been successful while others have been failures.
 * Sunano Genki (Assistant producer of Monster Hunter Frontier) says that they try to improve from their previous mistakes.
 * Teruki says that the Frontier players are quite humble and open. At live events, the players are known to voice out their opinions on certain things, whether a problem within the game or something to improve the gameplay experience. The Frontier team gets a lot of requests, so they discuss each one in order to choose what would be best for the future of the game.
 * Even some of the easiest changes are hard to perfect for them.
 * They are careful with each requests suggested by fans.
 * This new update for Monster Hunter Frontier represents its 10th Anniversary and is focused on Eruzerion.
 * They have confirmed that the other monsters in this update are stronger than Eruzerion.
 * Zenith Midogaron is meant to be a flashy monster with some added cuteness like an actual dog. It has an attack where it scratches its back like a real dog.
 * Zenith Plesioth's design is based off some deep-sea fish, such as its giant teeth.
 * The 10th Anniversary Book for Frontier will not contain every single armor set and weapon in the game, but will contain the main ones that appeared during each update.
 * The third CD that comes with the book contains ten yet to be used OSTs for Frontier. Each of these are planned to be used in the future.
 * It took ten years for the Frontier Team to implement the ability to change gender due to their being a lot of technical problems with it. For example, coverting the armor to another gender would directly mess with the database for the game.
 * Even though it has finally been implemented, not all armor sets from the previous gender still can't be used.
 * The Frontier Team is always planning ahead, usually by two years.
 * Monster Hunter Frontier is planned to continue for another ten years.

Other Things
 * Capcom Bar will be adding some Frontier items.
