Zampen Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Why the @#$÷÷- did they include this in the fr rotation.... anyone tried it? Doesnt pop up for me 1
Steven Kreg Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 was on a looooot yesterday and it didnt pop for me either. reaaaaally wish this was a choosable thing like racing and showdown.
Zampen Posted March 20, 2019 Author Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) I guess it is a way to lure them players wanting this to play the game.... been riding around for hours without seeing one singel player picking flowers,,,, i really hope they do something about that radar but thats me. And yea i thought this would be a option like the show down modes Edited March 20, 2019 by Zampen

Kean_1 Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 /Here's the announcement. Sounds like it was on the same day but I guess it only ran for that day (3/19/19)? See below for a schedule of what’s still to come to the Red Dead Online Beta before our next full update: Today - Free Roam Event: Fishing Challenge March 26 - Target Races and additional PS4 early access content: Open Target Races April 2 - Showdown Mode: Up In Smoke April 9 - Showdown Mode: Plunder/ 2
lumper Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 Oh I didnt read it like that at all, I thought it was active that day and moving forward would always be available, well that explains why I havent seen it pop up in all my hours playing yesterday and today.
Zampen Posted March 21, 2019 Author Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) Saw outlaw garry play it on Youtube earlier but i havent seen sh*t today either. Was just curious, back to my herb picking instead, only 3000 more to go ! (Ps yea im losing my mind) Edited March 21, 2019 by Zampen

Kean_1 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Makes no sense to me as the announcement came out the same day as the challenge. I suspect they may re-run it again. Folks should submit their feedback to R* if they are disappointed about missing this challenge: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback?step=decd9bdb

I mentioned in another thread I got a pop up for a free roam fishing challenge last night. I didn't accept it though because I didn't want to lose the cougar I had on my horse at the time. Edit: Forgot to mention, I didn't receive my fishing care package until last night either. Edited March 22, 2019 by Vaderspupil
The_Liquor Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 From my understanding, it’s part of the cycle of free roam challenges... which means your odds of getting it to pop up are about as good as archery challenge, or fools gold, or any of the others... I cold be wrong and maybe it’s a one day thing they did...
Born Homicidal Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) all these challenge modes should just be open in free roam, making it a different lobby is counter productive, i joined one regarding getting the most kills with a bow, i instantly thought okay i can fight NPCs or hunt etc.. nope it kicked me out of my lobby and made me join a PvP session lmao. I instantly quit back to free roam. Fishing challenge event shouldnt make you leave your current lobby. and to add insult to injury it was only up for one day?? Ugh i have always been a realist but even my friends who praise this game are starting to see the bullsh*t rockstar is doing Edited March 22, 2019 by Born Homicidal
Zampen Posted March 22, 2019 Author Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) Im still in a conversation with rs about this and all they have to say is that it is explained in their news wire artichel about the fishing challenge and i wish for them to explain whats going on...... tbc Anna K. (Rockstar Support) Mar 22, 12:41 EDT Hello Zampen, Thank you for contacting Rockstar Support. I understand that you were asking about the Fishing Challenge and the Free items care package. I do apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused you. I have gone ahead and provided a link to the Newswire that talks about the Fishing Challenge in order to help explain it a bit more than what has already been previously stated. The free items should have been added to the post office for you to go pick up. https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/60897/Red-Dead-Online-Beta-New-Fishing-Challenge-Free-Roam-Event-Added-Today Edited March 22, 2019 by Zampen
Kean_1 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Seems like there are a lot of mixed signals here. Thanks everyone for adding input to help us all figure it out.
nshanny73 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 My brain is melting... I cannot possibly comprehend how badly they messed this up I was on for 6 hours tuesday night and the fishing challenge did not cycle through ONCE! Friends that haven't played in awhile were eager to hop on this weekend to take part... now they will be pointing and laughing at me as they go back to games that aren't severely broken Their newswire post states that this challenge would be added to the free roam rotation... NOWHERE in their post did it state that this would be a one day event.... 100% the upcoming lame ass showdown modes will be given a permanent home I am slowly dying inside with how they are treating their fanbase
Vaderspupil Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 Took part in a fishing challenge tonight. It was fun until after it was over when one asshole posse decided to start killing everybody when we all spawned back into free roam. Can't want till the new update!
Zampen Posted March 23, 2019 Author Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) Well then rockstar lied to me, still no answer from them but apparently dudes are fishing so im sry.... Edited March 23, 2019 by Zampen
Zampen Posted March 23, 2019 Author Posted March 23, 2019 And all the suddenly it popped up now for me so regardless of what rs told me it was wrong apparently..... strange 2
CosmoKramer Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 Had the challenge pop up for me earlier, fortunately right as I was finishing selling to a butcher. Was really good fun actually, I hope they keep it in the rotation and increase its frequency. Didn’t see exactly how much I won from it but I think I got a decent wedge of cash and you keep all your catch so I walked away with 9 salmon. Only bad thing is, as mentioned above, you all spawn in that spot at the end so easy pickings if anyone is of a mind to rampage. 1

nshanny73 Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 Highly unacceptable for a rockstar support rep to be providing misinformation... you should report that rep immediately

lumper Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 I finally got an invite to the fishing challenge. Last night/ this morning and it was pretty cool, we were taken to Brandywine drop and about 8 players took part. It took several hours of playing for me to get an invite, but it did eventually happen.
