Naflie.3491 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Hello!I really think this game is missing a fishing profession! I really love to do fishing in all other games and find it relaxing.Perhaps they could add it one day?:)Give it some special achievements or rewards! A fishy weapon!What do you guys think? Or what do you do in this game to relax in general?:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be cool if they could make a better fishing system than most other games, but fishing is fishing. To relax in game I like to wander the oceans killing sharks and carving helmets from their stomachs and wearing them. O what fun times lol.

yoni.7015 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Why open a new thread and not posting in the existing one about this topic? If you want to go fishing you should go outside and to a lake near you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a perfect place for that, imo, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klipso.8653 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 The game itself should be relaxing, if you're looking for a break from recreation then something went wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The combat is great and all but fighting for like 98% of gameplay gets a little old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I’d welcome fishing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeolus.3615 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Game went to much towards a static themepark adventure.Gw2 lacks sandboxing, besides siegebplacement I don’t see anything else that fits sandbox mechanics, mayyyyybe the home nodes??

Biff.5312 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I've never found fishing in an MMO anything but a nuisance. As for relaxing - people do it all the time. Hang out in a city, engage in fashion wars, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaralyna.3104 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Theres tons of topics about this now....Bottom line: We already have fishing (2 different styles of fishing on 2 maps (Sandswept Isles (event) and Thunderhead Peaks (heart)) and ofc you can also just do underwater combat on fish creatures. Is it what you expected from fishing... perhaps not, but it does not mean fishing doesn't exist in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang out in a city, engage in fashion wars, etc.It can be done, but fishing mechanics need to have a reason besides serving for recipes, new mats could be farmed with diving places, like Pearls, fishing contest on LA harbour, lots of sandbox elements can be introduced on a themepark game. It all deppends on how gets designed.... if it happens I fear that anet would make it a node to shove it with a fishing rod skin bought on the tp.... cause in design and implementing solutions Anet is not that good...

Rauderi.8706 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 We already have spear fishing. Jump in and stab them fish!Not like we do anything with fish anyway. Cooking's never going to hit 500. /shrug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreams.3128 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Go further than that.I want there to be achievements, titles, and stupid silly skins for fishing. Who cares if people don't want it. Then don't do it. Sometimes people just wanna hang out or take a break and talk to people in guild chat instead of just afking around the visual clutter that are people nowaday. Better yea, Anet give me armor that I can make from fishing materials :] Or a stupid cape like in Runescape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starlinvf.1358 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 With Underwater combat mechanics already in the game, why are we not using that as the basis for fishing? Doing them one by one with a fishing rod will never satiate the blood lust and murder hoboing we're accustomed to. No..... if we're gonna do this, the Genocide has to be efficient, and the loots abundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abelisk.5148 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I've seen fishing executed very well. IMO not having vibration feedback from a controller ruins the experience so something else would do. Final Fantasy 12 had an interesting fishing system where to catch a fish you had to input certain commands such as left, r2, triangle, triangle as well as many other combinations. It speeds up as you progress and the inputs become more complex the further you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dami.5046 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I would like little trips around tyria, like the boat trips. It would stop at all the scenic points for a moment or two, with relaxing music then carry on.Don't know about fishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
