How to Fishing Rod Launch in Sea of Thieves (Crud Launch)

[@EpicGamer61044]

I regret to inform you guys that as of today, this has been patched. If a new method is found I will make a video on it as soon as I can.

[@Cierma564]

What do you mean by that

[@baeleyy]

@@Cierma564 What do you think he means

[@thecitrine1675]

Can anyone confirm if you have to hit sprint when swimming? Doesnt seem to be working too well for me

[@EpicGamer61044]

You certainly need to if you wait to keep your momentum, once you let go if it you will stop very quickly

[@thecitrine1675]

@@EpicGamer61044 thanks foe the response. It is hard to tell if you are actually speinting in the water since the animation doesn't start

[@MrRobotsk8r]

I know I’m so late but I get the reel animation but no change once I hit the water and I’m not sure if it’s patched for good now or what

[@EpicGamer61044]

yeah just does that now, still is fully patched though

[@MrRobotsk8r]

Well thanks for the same day response I appreciate that it’s nice to know

[@o-bagram-o]

IT WORKS AS OF 9/6/24 (or 6/9/24 if ur english) I thought it didn’t for me but I had the option to auto flost back to top of water on which makes you not able to dolphin dive

[@XLscaf]

I was doing this yesterday fine but it won’t let me do it today do you know if it’s been patched?

[@EpicGamer61044]

Not patched, can be hard with different servers, ping, fps and so on

[@stanmarsh7038]

Isnt stowing the fishing rod same thing as just letting it go or is it different

[@EpicGamer61044]

It is different to casting if that's what you mean, stowing is where you unequip it

[@stanmarsh7038]

@@EpicGamer61044 yeah ok do you unequip it once or twice

[@stanmarsh7038]

@EpicGamer61044 it worked a lot yesterday idk if they changed it when I stow it now it doesn't work at all

[@EpicGamer61044]

@@stanmarsh7038 Still working for me today, timing can be hard to get with different ping. Once you are in the air you want to tap the stow button twice.

Rod is there correctly gliching but I dont get the momentum. Is it fixed?

[@EpicGamer61044]

Just tested, still working

[@ElTotsii]

Delete this video asap, a friend of mine sent a video through DISCORD explaining how to do this launch and got a redbeard (permanent ban)

[@EpicGamer61044]

Jeez I would definitely dispute that ban. For the last few years Rare has said that you cant be banned for exploits, as they are part of the game. Hope they haven't changed their mind.

[@Derizo2]

@@EpicGamer61044 yeah unfortunately it doesn't really seem like rare cares about their own rules. from what i've seen they mostly ban based on emotion. btw, something i've noticed with the launch, it seems like it's easier with lower fps and tougher with high fps. have you noticed this as well?

[@toastbrot97]

​​@@EpicGamer61044 Doing an exploit and sharing it to encourage others to do it are two different things. If someone sees you do it ingame, you're probably fine. If you make a video like this, you're probably not. Also rare has definitely said in the not too distant past that they do not treat all exploits as equal for judgement calls for banning. Safest thing is to just not do any. The closer you walk the line the higher your risk of receiving a ban.

[@EpicGamer61044]

@@toastbrot97 Very true, I have heard of some exploits being taken more seriously than others. I feel as if this one is more of just a little glitch, but I guess its up to Rare to decide. I feel as if sharing it is honestly better than just doing it on your own, gives everyone the chance to be on an even playing field until it is patched.

[@EpicGamer61044]

@@Derizo2 Oh yeah don't worry I've seen their history with banning. And yes, ping and fps seems to affect this sorta stuff.

so, all this does is give you extra momentum?

[@EpicGamer61044]

you can also change your direction while flying, so you only have to shoot in the general direction of your target.

Not patched, but the timing has gotten harderwith the new season.

Did it tonight, timing just seems to have to be frame perfect

[@spamman9327]

We hitting the boards with this one 😈😈😈

[@adamcohan1703]

why the hell would this be ban-able??? in any other game this would either be patched or just called a movement tech, i’m so confused why they won’t let innovation be a part of the game

[@EpicGamer61044]

i agree, definitely shouldn't be banable. issue with sea of thieves is that they don't come out saying what is allowed and what isn't. so its always a gamble doing pretty much anything

[@JeRicotta]

this should completly be ban-able, you can completly skip a core part of the boarding gameplay and straight up ending on the deck without any sign or way to defend

[@EpicGamer61044]

@@JeRicotta that's like saying harpooning loot should be banable because is skips walking loot to your boat. this is a feature inside the game and should be used

[@JeRicotta]

@@EpicGamer61044 Harpooning loot is a gameplay feature that has been designed and added to the game by the game designer. This is a bug and an exploit, your not supposed to be able to get inside a canon with anything on hand to begin with and then the exploit can give you a clear advantage in fight. So yeah, we got a "feature" not designed, a bug and an exploit that gives you an unfair advantage in fight, this is banned on every multiplayer game.

[@Void3365]

@@JeRicotta ​ Have you ever sword lunged? Because that should theoretically be bannable too since it is an exploit.
