deathwaker Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Alright im just gonna say now there is a slight amount of swearing in this post however i feel like putting a swear word in every sentence. ok so it took me 2 hours to get to the fishing part of the game where you have to catch a fish to advance the story cant remember what the fish is called but there we go. so i was feeling prett confident about it you know all other games i have been able to do the fishing mini game like in dark chronicles 2. However this serously takes the F***ing pi** my total time is now 6 hours so yea you guessed it i spent 4 hours try to catch some stupid fish and i only got one and guess what it turned out not to be the fish i want. its so annoying i have no idea what i am doing wrong im doing exactly what the book and the guy told me to do (i must have done cause i have "1" fish) but the fish moves so fast its impossible to move the stick that quick and it says the fish got away and i swear to god if that book says i need to go the opposite way to the fish one more time i will burn that fu****. So i would appreciate it if someone could give me any tips on how to fish seens as im so retarded i dont seem to be able to do it hope you can help diddywaker x x x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Waggy Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 If you're trying to catch the Shaman Fish, go to the X on your map and fish there. As for the fishing itself, it's beyond simple. Hold back the left stick, and slide it in the direction your rod moves (aka opposite direction of the fish). You don't even need to look at the water, your guy automatically moves the rod, you just need to slide it the way he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltimateAuron32 Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 (edited) i cant belive how f**king lame arse the fishing bull crap is, what a shit way of doing it, ignore the in-game tutorials, they dont f**king work!! EDIT: heh, just been practicing in the sea at the Seafront, near the old man who "teaches" you how fish. IGNORE _EVERY_ word he says. when you want to fish, and the fish icon is displayed, go ahead and press it, that's the only part that's true. when fishing watch the rod VERY closely, it'll "twitch" 2-3 times, then "dive" press the . when the "battle" starts, HOLD down on the , this will start to decrease its HP, however the bastard wont just give in, when you see Nier move to the right, press and HOLD right on the , if he moves to the left press and HOLD left on the , if Nier moves to the middle again, just HOLD down on the . This counters the fish's attempt to escape. here's what I found, don't let go of the , instead slide it gently into position, its MUCH easier to fight it that way, I've been at it for about 30 minutes now, not one has escaped yet. I will update when I can catch more varieties of fish. Edited May 18, 2010 by UltimateAuron32 Correction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon83uk Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 You guys do realize that you can skip pressing , when the rod dips down at the end you can just pull down on and it instantly starts decreasing the fishes HP. Personally I'm giving up on the fishing. After about three hours stood at the Seafront beach hunting for bream and only getting one, my patience is pretty much worn! I'm going for my something very special today and I won't be bothering to backup my saves. It was a good game but the fishing and material hunting are just not my idea of fun.
