CONCEPT: The Fishing Update

[eternal frost]

POST WILL RECIEVE EDITS AND UPDATES

Why should it be added?:

Fishing is a step towards making Oaklands more creative! It would also make grinding less repetitive and dare i say it, maybe even make grinding fun.

Mechanics:

You hold your left button and release, the fishing rod would cast further depending on how long you hold.
Once a fish appears, it would nibble a few times before it eventually bites. if you reel in before it bites it would disappear.
After the fish has bitten on the bait a UI would pop up. The UI would be something like Stardew valley where you have to keep a bar within the fish's distance. and the longer you hold the completion bar would go up. If the fish is outside the box the completion bar would start to decrease.
The more valuable fish the faster the fish would move on the bar.

Of course a new shop would have to be introduced but this one would be different from the other, To be able to buy the higher tier rods you have to have a minimum caught fish amount, for example it could be like this:

Tier 1: 0 fish caught
Tier 2: 50 fish caught
Tier 3: 150 fish caught
Tier 4: 450 fish caught
Tier 5: 1000 fish caught

Biomes

Different fish would be caught in different Biomes. Say you caught a fish on the beach, You would only be able to catch small fish, but say you were out in the ocean on a boat (Ill get to that soon) you could catch bigger and more valuable fish like for example a Sturgeon.

2 different ocean biomes, On the side where the desert is you would have a warm ocean/ tropical ocean where you would find warmer living creatures. On the other side it would be cold ocean, where you would find colder living creatures.

1/2

Boats

Boats would open opportunities for not just fishing but for new content in general, instead of making the main island even bigger and more complex. A second island could be added with new trees and areas, making way for more biomes and fishing areas. The boats would function like a car, anchoring loose items, rocks and trees to the boat. in terms of fishing boats would have a use of getting around to the different oceans and fishing biomes on the possible new islands

If you have any feedback or ideas for the fishing concept please ping me :D

[upper thunder]

Bing chilling

I haven't red all of it

[eternal frost]

please do and give me feedback :)

@sudden swan boom, is this a good concept :)

[toxic herald]

Good concept

[eternal frost]

Praying hoofer sees this and adds fishing to the list of updates 🙏

[west drift]

yooo same

[pliant compass]

you got the legned?

[west drift]

i like the idea of fishing

[west drift]

i just recently got stardew like a week ago ig and ive literally been fishing

sometimes its a pain

[half sky]

I know this is the last thing people come up with, but fishing could get its own milestones too (the badges. Ive said what milestones are before and people have asked me what it is. Why do i have to specify.)

[sudden swan]

good concept

this gave me an idea that will pull Treasure Update

[hushed otter]

i lov fisg

[pliant compass]

@floral needle

[pulsar knot]

also fungi fish from oobmab lake and radioactive fish from acidlands will be funny

[distant thicket]

Love it

[eternal frost]

BRO YOU DID NOT READ IT THAT FAST 🤬

[pliant compass]

i want this in game

i cant farm more magma ill go insane

[distant thicket]

Don't need to read it. I want fishing added as well. With some type of progression for stuff other then just using cash

[eternal frost]

ok 😭

[distant thicket]

I did read it just so you know lol

[eternal frost]

🙏 thank you

[pliant compass]

i also read it

[eternal frost]

@cinder jewel didnt like it cuz he has stupid bias and is dumb poop

[pliant compass]

i need this in my life

[pliant compass]

Fishing Simulator

[distant thicket]

Cannot dothis

[eternal frost]

i agree

[thin notch]

would fish be items or would they go into a seperate inventory

[eternal frost]

You gave me an idea

Cooler inventory which you can upgrade on the same likes of fishing rods

Ima add that to the main message

[thin notch]

Different kinds of storage for different kinds of fish

Some fish have to be frozen and others kept fresh in a tank

[ornate thistle]

Eat the fish

[pliant compass]

Tony we should also add the tresure mechanic and different equipment

Make the treasure have somr cool decorations yknow?

@eternal frost

[eternal frost]

👍

[pliant compass]

Also if ultrakill can have fishing why not oaklands

Any game profits from it

[azure basin]

Please don't do it like stardew I can't fish for crap on that game. I game it up on that alone. There are so many better ideas like roll a joystick to bring in the fish. Anything other then stardews

[pliant compass]

Skrill issue also not everyone is on controller

You get better eventually

[eternal frost]

have you heard about sea of thieves fishing?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yYMvhxx8us

the first 1:30 of the vid shows how it works

i would much rather have this in the game but its very complicated to understand

[pliant compass]

Or valheim

[late imp]

I feel like a fishing rod is good

But it might clutter the inventory more

[eternal frost]

How

[sudden swan]

basically just drop the items if you're gonna go fishing lol

[eternal frost]

Yuh

[queen gust]

i like this alot

10/10

[mystic otter]

🐟

[eternal frost]

thank you

[mystic otter]

big win

[pliant compass]

my father will return with the milk if this gets added

[tawdry ore]

This is an amazing idea

[pliant compass]

this is so good of an idea

i need this in my ljife

[late imp]

This is good idea either way

[azure basin]

@late imp even if it clutters it you don't need to carry the rods when your not fishing. Maybe they will add a backpack now

[plush siren]

bucket to carry the fish

[azure basin]

Bump.. @dusky oriole

Sorry but didn't know if you saw this or not

[plush siren]

boowomp

[late imp]

Huh

[plush siren]

boowomp

[prisma igloo]

Boat do be cool

[azure basin]

Did this post die?

[eternal frost]

yup

[late imp]

Let it rise from ye death

[pliant compass]

So no more fishing in oaking the lands

[sudden swan]

the post died, but fishing is still lurking

[ashen heart]

what about controller also what type of boat

a ferry that everyone shares that does it’s rounds or a buyable boat 👩‍🌾

use blue cheese as bait

[outer barn]

its not a dum idee

[late imp]

Gumpw

[livid gazelle]

If there's new island with more expensive trees there should be boat trailers lol

[azure basin]

We need buyable boats but a charter boat where we could have all players out would be cool too

[ashen heart]

they can take out the useless rusty cars to reduce lag in its place

[azure basin]

We can already tow trailers. Coding a boat trailer shouldn't be to hard. Kinds of boats I would love to see.

Bass boat
Pontoon boat
Deep v hull
Air boat
Large charter boat. Like Pic. I actually worked OK the sea pirate for many years. The blue one is mine

[west drift]

Fr

[boreal bridge]

It is not that complicated to pull in the opposite direction the fish is moving

It takes finesse but it's not complicated

[ashen heart]

they should make a boat rent place and if you leave it for more than 5 mins the sea pirates take it

[late imp]

They should sell boats like trailers, then pull them on your car to the ocean and drag em onto the water

Then when done doing stuff drag it back on and drive away

[eternal frost]

bump!!!!

[queen beacon]

I love fshn!

[eternal frost]

@cinder jewel

[lilac timber]

cleaning and filet machines would be cool

and a knife that is like the saw how it can sand but for cleaning and fileting them but more basic

[pastel imp]

Best drawing

[lilac timber]

Are you sure that’s not a photo? Looks too realistic

[pastel imp]

Not sure acc I forgot

[cinder jewel]

oh my gyatt

[eternal frost]

my concept is so good

[solar plover]

maybe add a super rare pickaxe/axe that you only get from fishing or extremely rare variants so we can gamble and endgames players will have a reason to fish alot

[eternal frost]

Thats a horrible idea 💀

I agree that there should be super rare fish

but theres no reason to add anything like a pickaxe or axe

[queen beacon]

emperor whale from FF!

[tawny compass]

sea chest with that give items when open

[solar plover]

gambling helps alot in player retention lol

[eternal frost]

Yeah you sit there and hope you get good fish that sell for a lot

[tawny compass]

yes people really like almost an idle game, when to me it's like a way to make me sleep when i can't.

[eternal frost]

Yes

[lofty matrix]

approve

[eternal frost]

This is the only way i see fishing would be good 🤑

[bright grail]

yes

[plush siren]

free money

[tawny compass]

if fishing will be someday a i thing, i think inventory should be a thing as well someday.

[last pier]

Bump
