I will say that the D. Island looks much less vibrant in this game than in either MH3 or (especially) MHP3rd. It's very washed out in comparison, with the bright, flourescent green of the hillsides seen previously now a dull greyish green. Another peculiar thing I noticed is that the ground textures at Area 2 and area 10 are noticeably lower resolution than anywhere else on the map, and certainly less so than MHP3rd.

That said, the Tundra looks MUCH better in MH3U than it did in MHP3rd, with the colours much more akin to their original appearance in MH3. The ground textures and lighting all look better than MHP3rd, and I'm happy to see it look as good as it does here.

D. Island is going to bug me a bit I think.
