It can only lock-on onto big monsters.

I just finished this part. Keep following the arrows, I think the expedition only ends when you reach the end and find the wagon
Great, thanks!

You have to keep going to the end of the area you're exploring. There will be a wagon to use to go back to the village.

Just killed a kecha wacha, is that one of the new monsters?
Its been pretty quick, people come and go even when we're on a quest.
Before anyone at all joins? I don't think so, some rooms take time to get completely full though, depends on what its being hunted.

The Shagaru Magala fight was awesome!
Nice, can finally have two cats with me, I really like the hire mechanic.
Gotta say though, this game is crazy easy on low rank caravan, monster die so quick compared to mh3u. I won't complain though since I'm still having a blast, but you can really tell they tried to make this game's early game more assessable for casuals. I heared the late game might even be harder than mh3u's so I won't mind them trying to make early game more 'profitable'.

This game is consuming me and I suck at it (trying really hard to get decent with the hunting horn).
Somehow it feels good...

so help me clear this up with mounting
if I hit a monster enough times with a jumping attack, I'll mount
shit man I've tried mounting a Great Jaggi (just practice since it doesn't hit hard) a buncha times and nothing. I've come from all directions trying to land on this thing. its face, its neck, its back, its tail... lol

Do you get the knockdown animation at all? Sometimes the monster falls a bit too far away from you and you have to run up to him to trigger the mounting. Otherwise idk, if you're actually hitting shit in the air it should trigger.
yes, but you will eventually find out that most 1st and 2nd gen monsters have been revamped making them quite new
I seem to have an easier time knocking over monsters with jump attacks when they're tired or right after they do a powerful attack. I mounted a ton of times on my first jump attack so it seems like a percentage chance based on some factors rather than "jump attack a certain number of times to mount"

I still can't get jumping down and it makes me a sad panda and I got carted to gypceros. Didn't know it was a poison monster and it caught me off guard when it faked being dead. I feel like a rookie all over again xD
So people playing on an old 3ds like I am: What's the best camera technique you've found? I mean both in terms of the options in the option menu, as well as what you use to control the camera. Worth keeping that digital d pad on the touch screen? Should I really only be focusing on the L button? What's the best setting for that?
Just met the "Ace hunters" and so far its definitely a much better "Beginning" than all other monsters hunters theres no doubt about that. instead of 3-5 hours of meaningless quests it only takes about an hour to get to the large monsters (and not just Great Jaggi)
I think i might go ahead and hope online soon if anyone else is up to it. So far i've been sticking to the Charge Blade to get a handle on it but also have SnS and LS as back up mains. oh and i think someone mentioned it earlier today but the starting armors are.... kinda disappointing ability wise so far but im sure that will go away once late low rank or high rank starts

So I'm jumping into this game blind since I like learning about my choices for armours and skills. Got to HR2 and got the Nerscylla set with accompanying IG and I'm about to take it for a spin. I'm gonna have to get some Decorations to offset the Hunger.
I'm still adamant about sticking to my GS for the game so I'll focus it on singleplayer as I continue learning.

I'm up for some low level hunting, haven't been online yet either. Been messing around with the Dual Blades, Hammer and Gunlance and I like them all.
Yes
I'd suggest to try all the weapons tutorials to see what really fits with you. Every weapon is good, it just depends on your play style and what you want to do in the game

Wow your Palicoe actually kills things.
I dont use a circle pad so I basically use the default. I use both the dpad, the virtual dpad and the L button. The virtual dpad pushed a bit to the right.
I use the L button when I overshoot or need a quick glance to the back.
yes, only the hammer, Hunting Horn and most of the gunner attacks are not able to cut tails
i'm using a new 3ds and even then i barely touch the second stick. L targetting is wayyy faster and better for keeping track of large monsters.
second stick probably helps a bit for lining up with smaller ones, but you won't be bothering with them after the first few ranks anyway.
Yeah, that was my experience in MH3U. I thought they've changed it somehow since in my 18 hours of play currently, I have yet to cut any tails :/

I don't want to make a ton of armor sets while slogging through low-high rank quests but i do wanna have something. Such tough choices xP
I always recommend to only do one good armor for the low rank since that rank goes pretty fast and those armors are gonna be outdated by high rank, on high rank you can dedicate more time on armors, and even then on G they will be also outdated
I made the virtal d-pad tiny so I don't have to stretch my thumb so far across the screen to use look left. Generally when I'm using the circle pad I turn the camera with the virtual d-pad and when I'm pressing the buttons I turn the camera with the d-pad. It's nowhere near perfect but I'm starting to get used to it. Setting the target lock to mode 2 so it only seings the camera left and right, not up and down, also helps.
