Martyn 246 Posted June 8, 2019 (edited) Usage To use the fishing net the player must sit down in a Chair on a ship and equip the fishing net. Per the dev stream, the ship must then be moving at a set speed, and the mini-game will start, requiring you to press a corresponding key that pops up on the screen. Completing the mini-game will yield Fish Meat and a small amount of Gold Coin History/Patch Notes Per Dev Stream 5/3/2019 They showed a new minigame to gather fish while on a ship, using a fishing net.

Someone know how this is supposed to work? Tried sugar, aka fishing bait.. No Ammo.. Edited June 8, 2019 by Martyn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kappinski 58 Posted June 8, 2019 I used Honey and it worked. Drag honey in your inventory onto the fishing net. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Badkebab 79 Posted June 9, 2019 Both the fishing rod and the net work in the same way when it comes to bait nd this insistence on particular types of sugar and the poor return for the investment means these are probably not widely used. Why one would code in that a player needs to be seated and that only certain sugar types work is beyond me. Why have a feature in the game that has taken coding time, art time, animation time and then make it unlikely to be widely used by making the feature a ball ache to use with a poor return..... We have a saying in our company for things like this ......."atlas".... Still manage to have fun in the game though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grongash 201 Posted June 9, 2019 Another rather useless addition this game didnt need. Would have made more sense to have it as a passive collector while sailing (you know, like these nets actually work). Makes you wonder if the developers ever looked up how any of those things are supposed to work. Then again, they made Mantas vicious beasts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
