    fishing suggestions

    OK, you may be planning this already, but one issue with many mmos is any crafting thats simply clicking.

    What would be nice is a simple mini game while you fish you can real in out have text that you are getting a nibble do you want to wait or tug ETC, course some bait as well be nice.

    little more to way fishing is in EQ2

    OH BTW this last patch I don't know why, but fixed frame rate issue I was having. I was testing it last 2 days, but was going to make sure was not on my end after patch some odd reason its better I dunno its coincidence or not lol.

    Already brought this to his attention . Right now it would be too much work compared to stuff that has to be done (like the server and animals and tribes and buildings yada yada yada. However, I really would like something like this.

    aye lots to be done =) mini games to many of crafts would be nice perhaps after release or something, but I get what you mean.

    Adding mini-games later on will deflate prices.
    If it was easy getting fish before, once the mini-game is in it will only hinder getting fish, if compared to before the mini-game. Available fish will therefore have a higher value, and this means that mini-games introduced after the economy is established, will feel like an earthquake in your purse.

    Well thats a good economic argument why not to add the mini-game after the fact.

    However if acquiring fish as is, is not fun, but fish are a necessity then it becomes a chore. A game full of chores is not fun, thus deter gamers. However if fish are not a necessity then most won't bother fishing at all, unless it was fun to do.

    True, cbowsin.

    I hope that actual "meals" made of fish will have a kind of "bite counter" (really, a stack counter). So you can take a bite now and then on your fishy sammich

    This would mean a lot of food in a single slot, and less often to do the chore.

    Same for canteens you can fill to have a water supply.

    You could be overestimating the size and role of the player economy in this game. I don't see a vital and healthy economy arising among a population of a few hundred or even a few thousand players. Likely tribes will be able to supply themselves with everything they need.

    I don't see the problem with leaving fishing as it is now (fyi I can't get in game at the moment), and then latter adding in a mini-game for other fish that are more advance.

    You have to do different things for different fish, the game does that with basic fishing and mini-game fishing for moderate or hard fish. But again not in game so I have no idea.

    Excellent idea . So u mean, just add mini-game for fishing for advanced fish, like shark, whale, etc. but for basic fish, just leave as is. Sounds excellent. U just dont want to make fishing, a mini-game, for all fish. hmm.
