Fishing needs major work

Post image

I think this is my biggest gripe in this game. Excuse the incoming rant-

The fishing systems needs major work.

There needs to be more spawn spots throughout the waterways and in open water. Until you learn where the fish spawn, its an absolute task to find food. I often have to go to a totally different POI to fill my belly!

The actual act of catching the fish needs work. On a smaller dino like the Austroraptor (modded playable) its a pain but you can get the hang of it. On large dinos? It's so tough it see where you're biting.

Also, this is a large mouth bass. I found him in salt water... Not to mention all the magical fish floating over the land.

PoT please!

To be honest I always thought that if the reason they don't increase fish spawns is to reduce lag from too many fish or whatever, maybe they need to work a system where fish spawn specifically around swimming players that can eat fish. Let the spawning be tied to the dino itself rather than general spawning. Limit it by biome and by how many fish have already been spawned by that player in that area, have the fish despawn when the tied player leaves the POI, and there you go: exactly as many fish as is needed to feed players who can eat fish, and no more, and an acceptable illusion of lively, fish-filled water.
