Seikret sitting in your way while fishing

[LewdMarshmellow]

Someone kill this reptilian bird. EVERY single time I cast my lure to fish that stupid F***ing mount wants to stand right in the way. There ultimately needs to have some way of disabling it while fishing or at the VERY least make it and your dumb useless palico despawn when you have your fishing rod out. It's ironic how they claim the seikret to be soooo smart in the begining of the game and it's too dumb to stay out of the way while fishing... It's already hard enough to get some of the aquatic creatures to spawn but when we can't even see it, makes it much worse!

Well, I guess if anything were to get Crapcom's attention, people making a new "Birb blocked my fishing!!1!" thread on a daily basis would do it.

use the capture net while ON your chocobo. Problem solved. And you get to skip the fishing with the exception of the handful of quests that give worthless rewards.

Good luck getting the 30 Whoppers achievement with the Capture Net.
It doesn't exactly have a lot of range.

i'm going for the 30 whopper achievement too and i'm annoyed as all get out whenever the seikret decides it's going to walk behind me and just stand there in front of the camera as i fish

Honestly this is kinda what I'm going for, it's annoying yeah I know but it is something I think should be fixed. I enjoy the fishing and if another mechanic is getting in the way of that, I would like it fixed and I'm sure there are others out there that would like for it to get fixed too.

So just get off the mount 5 feet away from where you are fishing? DURRRRR

I'm going to try something with the Seikret exploration option and see if it works...

[AurumHawke]

It actually walks away and stays with Alma when casting the line.

Doubt any of the settings actually do anything (all of them are while-riding behavior), but all the Automatic-mode stuff is off.
KBM with Automatic keybind(s) replaced with Manual.

And always, -always- take a flying leap off the dinobird.

[The Debauchery]

It isn't definitive in any way, but I just caught 3 whoppers in a row with the "Seikret Auto-explore" switched off and it didn't come near even once. I'll continue testing.

This is kinda true is there no way to put the sacret on afk in camp ?

[furfrou7071]

whenever I fish, the chicken's butt is right Infront of my face lol, so I rarely ever see my catch with big fish. Maybe just have the bird sit by and watch whenever we fish would fix it

seikret in general very often gets in the way, fishing, posing for camera, looking at monsters with the binocs, it needs to be fixed.

That doesn't work when your seikret is doing this ♥♥♥♥. It just comes right back and stands in front of the camera Durrr

[Despell]

your "chocobo" also has a tendency to keep walking into a direction if it is moving while you cast a line, sometimes it walked to the opposite of the great lake while i was waiting for something to bite

I've modded my game so the birb doesn't do this any more.
It works.
I haven't shared it because I also modded its jogging speed too, and it behaves rather erratically.

[I3lood_Dr4gon]

wht yall problems? i never had this happening... just dont drop down froom seikret where you want to fish+ if you fish they are out of view anyway...

[williy51]

I think is a problem with the its AI in general is just dumb and needs to be fixed, RD2 has horse NPCs and I don't every remember them being a pain in the but. My favorite things was the game telling me mount the seikret to sharpen my weapon then it doing a 180 and running me right back in the fight. I get that they are trying to make it seem like it smart but i would have like some sort of behavior system for me to give it commands it they want it to be smart as a part of the game. It would also be nice to have urgency levels for mounting like 1 whistle is walking and each whistle after that would make it come faster this would eliminate some of this issues with it running in circle of camera when you called it by always starting slow it would make it easier for the AI to turn around to you instead of getting stuck tuning at walls with sprint animation turns. I would happily remove my emotes shortcuts for seikret commands or they could just do it like RD2 trust system so you can more reliably hunt with them like in RD2 a new horse would throw you off for a snake but a loyal horse would let you hunt Grizzlies while they charged you both.

It doesn't matter where you jump off I have even left it at camp If it doesn't immediately run to me on cast it is at my side when I hook a whooper.
