I've been out there for a couple days, and I haven't succeeded completing the meta yet. 5 or 6 attempts yesterday, where I saw the fight with Soo Wan for the first time, once. The problem i was having was joining a commander and then having them actually leave our map to go somewhere 'where they're winning', we were told. It was weird to be in a map from the start only to lose the squad, mid-fight. So I stopped joining squads! Now I just wait and see if we get close to being able to do the map and I get to run along. I've mentor- tagged up a few times to help direct where to go, what to focus on. This meta map is a lot of fun and I really love the game play of it. I haven't succeeding doing it yet, but I still like playing it. The sound effects around charging the crystals is my favorite part!! xD Sounds wonderful. We get close to defeating Soo Wan. I think we spend a lot of time rezzing folks that die. Failed twice today, but we actually got over to Soo Wan, today. I noticed that there didn't seem to be a timer on the crystal-charging part of the meta, the map died twice there, yesterday. X) So I personally appreciate it.

Can we watch the bobber instead? If it goes right, we tug left(A key), if it goes to the left, we tug to the right? (D key) Tha'd seem a bit more intuitive.

The problem with this is I've given up on fishing and don't see my being able to level it. Even if I didn't give it up. I don't catch fish; they just escape. I tried again tonight. I won't be able to complete that map. I'm incredibly bummed. 😞 Still don't like the bar. Any other kind of fishing than this version, anet! T.T I can look at a pencil and have the same kind of .. experience. Taking your eyes off the scenery is no longer 'fishing'. I tried to just see if I could toggle left and right, to oppose the way the fish swims in the water, that would be cool - then you don't have to stare at the bottom of the screen while fishing. 😧

I don't know offhand what the day/night passage of time is in GW2, but if the sun or moon is out, maybe? O,<" Fising in RL can be like this, as well. If the time of day is a factor, it's possible that raining in the game could also make a difference with catching fish? (Rl fishing thing, sometimes, as well.) ♥

I was thinking this very thing. It's what kinda blows fishing in gw2 for me. 😞

I've been hoping for fishing in GW2 for *years* now! 🙂 There are areas I would hope would get fishing in Tyria because the surrounding landscape is gorgeous. I more prefer the fishing in Elder Scrolls Online, WoW, and Lost Ark. I hear Skyrim has fishing as well, now. I must agree about the fishing in GW2. When I discovered fishing in the game is more akin to Stardew Valley's version of fishing, I felt incredibly disappointed. Real fishing isn't this difficult! I could change my hotkeys, but it won't alter the fact that I couldn't catch a fish by trying to stay on the side-to-side, scrolly-bar thing for at least a minute. Reeling in a fish doesn't take this long! (Unless maybe you're in the ocean?) Though I have done some net fishing off the east coast - that's a blast. Looking at a scrolly-bar while trying to reel in a fish is a bummer for me. I was hoping to enjoy the scenery, but you really have to focus on the catch-bar. I fail to catch a fish so frequently, I've stopped trying to fish. I'm glad if people enjoy it. This version of fishing is not my thing. I've only helped someone try to fish in Stardew Valley and didn't care for it. However, I am glad to be playing the new expansion, it's been very exciting. The art in Cantha is beautiful! I also really love the story and the humor; I played GW, so it's fun to return to "Factions". 🙂 ♥ Fishing seems to be more about the scroll-bar and less about fishing. 😞 I'll manage without doing it in GW2. I guess. 😞 😞 😞
