Payam Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 (edited) Hello Is it possible for you to increase the fishing income? it's very low at the moment and it takes almost 1 hour to catch 24 kg of fish and which is only worth near 4700 $ :/ on the other hand what is the differences between little fishes and big ones ? for example when you get a shark? it should be very, for instance, a shark should weight at least 5 kg or even more because they are very rare. thank you so much in advance Edited July 14, 2019 by Payam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldarine Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 -1 All jobs have different income amounts. Some are more profitable than others. Also, almost $5,000 an hour is not bad as other jobs make less. +1 Adding fish variety with maybe just 3 types of fish to have some more randomness to fishing and price variance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasmine Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 Fishing is already one of the highest income per hour as a civilian. I am a manager at DCC after 3 months of wrking there and making it up the ranks....and make less than fishing. Fishing income is fine. Gov jobs need a serious raise. Variety of fishing, or a bit more exciting experience would be great though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reckless311 Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 Variety would be a nice addition, but increasing the money is not necessary. People seem to want everything fast, but that's not how life works. You slowly save up for things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payam Posted July 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) actually, I'm not new to the city and don't wanna everything fast, I have most of the things I want but all I say is this : in my opinion, the fishing income is very low and it's not an easy job and you have to highly focus on the game or you will miss your catch, the lack of income become bolder when compare it with living expenses of the city ( water, burger, GPS, fuel and so on ). increasing the selling cost of a fish for instance to 250$ or 300$ not make that much difference in the total money added to the game but it can persuade more people to do legal jobs such as fishing :) Edited July 15, 2019 by Payam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude24990 Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Fishing is O.K. Remember you get your government paycheck on top of whatever you catch. It's just mind numbingly boring is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its capped at 8k. And the funding was barely enough to pay us last month. If the gov caps hourly pay at 8k, then my point is completely relevant. Farming is 9k.

Randul Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Gov doesn't cap anyone they can spend as much as they like on wages, funding has also been upped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payam Posted July 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2019 btw jasmine you can have your job and fishing in your leisure time. increasing fishing income can help everybody in the city. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marca Posted July 15, 2019 Report Share Posted July 15, 2019 All things considered, fishing is decent as far as payment goes. Apart from the risk of getting robbed, you don't really have to do anything else. You can relax, maybe do some netflix and fish and profit.

You really think its a good thing that I should choose to fish over a management job that took 160 hours of play to earn? My position stands, fishing should not be raised unless the gov salary cap is raised also. And treasuries increased to meet the higher pay scale. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopop Posted July 15, 2019 Report Share Posted July 15, 2019 When you got gangs who do fishing runs you know something is up with fishing. I never watched Gangland and saw the episode about the gangs who fished and robbed each others fish trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This says as much about the state of criminal content on the server as it does about the profitability of fishing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean you'd have to work pretty much every single minute, where as DCC, you only need to be on duty and by your vehicle to get paid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop AFKing and ignoring calls, and you would be active the entire time. Fishing is 90 seconds between dings. I throw beach parties while fishing all the time. And it is easily 8k an hour. And you don't need to log on duty, have bosses, deal with customers, call in codes, and can't just stop immediately if you need to go do something IC or OOC. Gov job and fishing both have their advantages and disadvantages, and doesn't change the base argument here, that fishing income shouldn't be greater than Gov. manager pay.

I think you added your government salary on top of your fishing money to reach 8 k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't say fishing should have more income than a government job. maybe it's a need to increase both of them. fishing is not that easy that is look like. you should pay attention to it every single minute and all the time it is a chance to someone come to rob you and get all of your fishes and your inventory + your car ^^ some gov jobs is all about just being on duty. someone said that watch Netflix and fishing at the same time :)) how this is even possible?

You literally can if you have second screen, a year ago i used to plug AUX into my iPad to my PC and actually tick on the listen back audio and it works perfectly. At the same time i still don't know if ECRP counts that thing as farming cheat. Edited July 16, 2019 by MildsHawk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
