Powermolch 3 Posted May 14, 2012 I thought of several things which could help players to survive and also consumes playtime. What I really would like to see is Fishing. There could be 2 Options of Fishing.First: Fishing Pole - Why not sitting on the beach with a fishing pole, waiting for getting food?Second: Fishing with a net - We all know that slow and useless boats ingame. Its Fun to ride around with it but it has no use at all. (The Island doesnt spawn anything special) But its a Fishing Boat, why not adding an option to catch fish with it?

Joey Skylynx 0 Posted May 14, 2012 Make the fishing like the game Reel Fishing 2, and you've got my support.The only issue with fishing is making it challenging and fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yashim 2 Posted May 28, 2012 Simple enough, add fishing to the game. maybe expand it to create your rod and find bait, cook your fish and get a fair bit of blood back. maybe avoid diseased fish and find the odd boot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LastShenanigan 8 Posted May 28, 2012 This is the only suggestion that I, will 100% endorse. You'll be a sitting duck for anyone with a rifle though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scoffield77@gmail.com 192 Posted May 28, 2012 I like this idea, not only will it be a good source for food.Fishing line could be used for the booby traps or what notI also think if they implemented this: it would give enough food options that they could give limit can food in game. or have a lot at the (server) start but after a while it could become more scarce.+1 rep for a good idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reinofragin 1 Posted May 29, 2012 Can i just shoot the fish and drag them out? I'm terrible at fishing ;_; 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
combatcomm1 234 Posted May 29, 2012 How do you realistically script the fishing? Iv just spent 3 hours catfishing in RL with the best cut bait for the area and caught nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bellicosity 0 Posted May 29, 2012 +1 I would imagine that the script for fishing would be much like the one for filling your water bottle. Exceptions would include requiring a much longer time for the animation, only useable at ponds and ocean, and having a chance to not return anything at all.

_Profile_Shame 37 Posted May 29, 2012 bumping this because it would add variety to the gameplay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scoffield77@gmail.com 192 Posted May 29, 2012 To make it simpler, instead of a rod and wheel, they could use a fishing net and just use the bend over animation near the water.I'd rather see the Rod and Wheel through Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Profile_Shame 37 Posted May 29, 2012 how about rolls of fishing line? people use that itself to fish, just needs weight and a hook. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
