Go fishing! It is a feature included in many games for many years, a different game about the quality from one game to another. Sega bass fishing? Perhaps the peak of the line, as long as you have that unique fishing controller. Stardew valley? I like it, but I know a lot of people hate it. Personally, I often find it quite a relaxing thing to do, especially in games focusing on fighting. Fallout 76 is one of such games more about shooting instead of relaxation, but on the public test server, you can now try its fishing version.
Of the friends on PTS (I heard it was what the great children called it) now can go to a new area in the Mire Bomby area called Fisherman’s Rest. There are three new characters here, Captain Raymond Clark, one person only called fishermen, and Linda-Lee, a giant hidden crab. A capable group in a world like Fallout’s.
To get a fishing bar is probably not your brand, you need to start the casting mission. You will see that by following the signal on your Pip son in the mud. A detailed blog post The fishing patches notes that the way you know if you can catch somewhere is a simple mantra: “If I can swim, then I can catch.”
When you really come to fish, you will need to use different types of bait, consider the weather conditions – storms will help you find a glowing fish – although I cannot tell you how the fishing part really works other than a fish command appearing in deep water. The sound like it can be quite automatic, it is a bit of shame.
There are many different types of fish to catch, you can eat to restore some health, but you can also turn them into fish bits (terrible name), allowing you to cook a new grilled fish recipe. This “gives you an effect that reduces the time to hook a fish for 20 minutes”, something feels quite messy when you think you are using the life of a fish to help you catch more fish. You will also find daily fishing tasks where you can also unlock many recipes.
Currently, Bethesda is targeting in June for people who do not play on PTS, so you are not exactly waiting if you want some errors to be resolved first.
