    Coming this July to an ARK near you!

    Hello Survivors!

    As the ARK continues to evolve throughout it's development process, something we've wanted to do is to make sure that we're able to introduce new features and gameplay mechanics that are not only beneficial and enjoyable to you as survivors, but also add to your immersive experience. Better grab your gear cause this July you'll be able to take to the seas and try your hand at catching a fish! ;)

    i take it that the rod would be a primitive and low level item?

    Awesome! I can't wait to finally catch some fish and not having to swim around for it but also, I know the update already happened for the pc involving the titanosaur but when will it come out for Xbox? I've been so excited about it!!!

    Reese I've got Satan in my name that should give you a clue as to what kind of gamer i am let me emphasize gamer cause although id hunt an skin every moasasuar an plesiosaur i can catch on ark.

     

    If i ran into an actual whaling ship in real life id sink the frigging thing an drown every man who survived the only thing killing whales is other animals and old age after all we no longer need whale fat for lightning an the only reason whales are been killed for now is herbal medicine which dont do jack.

    but how much will the fishing license cost? 

    2 argent claws for the month or a sauropod vertebrae for the year.

    This is amazing! Will we be getting differing fishing rods in order to catch larger fish? Like a bamboo rod to start out with. Then continue to expand on it until we have a a rod made of carbon fiber. Like Jeremy Wade!

    "FISH ON!"

    its actually Natural Medicine Herbal medicine means a single or multiple PLANTS are used in the medicine while Natural Medicine can contain Animal organs, Liquid Tissues, and even Excrement.

    secondly Japan still has a thriving Whale meat Market its their Pork, think from their view Pigs if they escape can Devastate an ecosystem look at Australia's Feral Pigs Japan being smaller would rather limit their Ranching to the Kobe Region, so for them Whales are an Economical food stuff they require NO LAND to raise, no FOOD to grow, and no BREEDING by human hands, and the Meat is rather nutritious for humans and the o8il is used for other purposes than lamp oil.

    now I'm not in favor of hunting Whales I'd do the same as the guy I'm quoting I'm saying get your terminology and the reasons right when you say to hate something. the more you know eh? :3

    Oh it's much more than that -- fishing has a very specific benefit to the kinds of resources you'll be able to get from harvesting the captured fish, in order to make it worth the time expenditure ;)

    First of all, I was lucky to be quoted by the King himself, and that just makes me more excited for it.HYPE!

    As long as I can catch a megalodon and rule the ocean

    Impossible without a MASSIVE tek tier type fishing pole/boat... but still sounds fun as hell

     

    EVEN THO I believe they should be working on bug/lag issues and not adding more into the game... I think this is a GREAT addition to the game...

    Keep up the great work WC

    Thank you for the correction but if the uk can contain its pigs then Japans only problem is been too lazy an stubborn to change it's ways.
