Pikered Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 4.02. Intentionally exploiting the physics system to catch the fish faster or bigger. This includes, but is not limited to, catching the fish without appropriate force applied to the tackle. What does this mean exactly, in other words? Sorry I'm Italian, notoriously ignorant.

Violentvole Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 As I see it, don't use a Brutus for bass or suchlike - keep the tackle sporting. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarne67 Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 I think it is referring to things like the quick strike method used to hook fish faster than intended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobNudd10 Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 i think violentvole was correct if you read the description correctly it basically saying not to use way overpowered gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that it was probably written at the beginning and refers to PC hacks and exploits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobNudd10 Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) that may be true m8 i was referring to catching the fish without appropriate force being applied to tackle i assumed it meant overpowered gear so thats why i put that 12 minutes ago, Tmif said: I, personally, have never heard of anyone being warned, much less banned for using overpowered gear.

Hell, I had a 4lb Tiger Trout on a 7/0 and large cutbait on a Brutus with 40lb line once, I believe I sent the screenshot to Jim. I read the rules as doing these things intentionally and in a competitive environment. Bass on a Brutus or Zeus can be reeled in with no fight for instance, for pleasure fishing what does it matter? But competitive fishing, it could potentially make a difference because someone doing so gets more fishing time. I may be reading it totally wrong, but to me the rule stated in the OP refers to using appropriate tackle for the species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for quick strike question - developer's team checked it and decided to let this technique stay in game for now, so players can use it. 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
