Mouse and keyboard work just fine for me.
A career mode! One of the major things everyone wanted, me included. For free! Can’t even complain.
So I see this is on sale, how would this game work as
- 5 of us LAN party every winter. Could we set up a hour tournament when we need to slow things down for a while.
- If some of us played the game lots and others only played during the LAN party could it be set up balanced?
Thanks :)
- Have no earthly idea.
- Sure, if everyone agreed to use the same stuff.
Woo jumped to 2nd in Predator tourney. Learned how to Walleye, even though it’s 100% unrealistic and not at all how Walleye are caught.
Almost got the top spot, but had 4-5 hooks that were not correct. And I had my line tension wrong the whole hour…and I have no attempts left, but I’ll settle for 2nd any day.
My weekly online tournament summary:
Bass - 13th (bleh), 55,000 fake dollars (career bucks, whatever those are), 15,500 shopping points (TP)
Match - 8th (not a fan of this), 80,000 fake bucks, 18,000 TP
Carp - 6th, 90,000 fake money, 19,000 TP
Predator - 2nd! 500,000 fake dollars, 22,500 TP.
Plus each one gave 10k XP.
So just that pushed me from level 90 to 95, gave me $725,000 “career earnings” and 75,000 in-game store points.
Worth doing? Sure, if you can pull off top 10’s.
oh wow - nice jop! Next rain day I’m loading up.
I mean it is a huge time sink, though. The 2nd place Predator tournament took me all 3 attempts to get into the top 10 (I learned the magic trick to catching only walleye about 10 minutes into that), so that was 3 hours.
I also did all 3 carp tourney attempts, 3 more hours.
I did all 3 bass attempts, 3 more hours.
I did the match play one twice, 2 hours.
So all of that was 11 solid hours of pixel-fishing.
So career mode is out on Thursday along with 3 new free lakes and a massive update, 50 odd sponsors, new fish and new gear.
Additionally there is a new DLC the Giant Carp Pack available to purchase as well.

How is that post not an ad?
Well I posted it directly from their website as I could not be bothered to type it all up
I have deleted the 3 big pictures as it looked like an advert :)
There was nothing wrong with @Reemul post and I appreciate all the info as I would have missed this.
I once posted a link here to the cool robotic racer, Anki Overdrive (https://www.anki.com/en-us/overdrive.html) and was promptly shut down and accused of being an Anki shill.
I own FSW and now I feel better about the free update.
Thanks Reemul!
Lol, no worries, I should have formated it better. I have amended my post to better reflect your reply.
Damn! Didn’t know they had arapaima in this. Nice, and gratz.
