Developers Dennis_FP Posted November 27, 2019 Developers Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Hello, anglers! And we’re finally rolling out the much awaited feature of User Generated Competitions and much more! User Generated Competitions Now, you can create and customize competitive fishing events based on your own preferences, by fine-tuning and adjusting multiple event settings, including rules, locations, time schedules, participants and much more! We designed a whole array of new tools to make it more comfortable for you to create and host just the perfect angling competitions and set numerous parameters to your preferences: Use pre-existing templates or generate your fishing event from scratch! Select the competition formats (free for all/team/duel) and privacy settings. Set your own Entry Fee and Prize Pool. Choose from multiple settings, including location, number of participants, player LVLs, duration, time, weather conditions, tackle, qualifying fish, etc...! We’ll tell you in more detail here how these new competitions are going to look like in the game. A new Custom Competitions menu will be added to the game interface that’ll feature a convenient list of all the user competitors both available and already played. New Complex Rigs with new types of terminal tackle: Rigs. Yep, now you can use rigs with your spinning and casting rods: Texas Rig, California Rig. Three-way Rig and Flipping Rig- all to enhance your fishing experience!;) Three-Way Rig One of the most well-known and simplest rigs, the three way rig features a three-way swivel that has separate attachment points for the main line, sinker and the leader. Easy to set up, the three way rig provides smooth rotating and eliminates line twists. Particularly efficient for going after predators like Catfish, Trout, Pike or Bass. Texas Rig The Texas rig is one of the easiest and most effective ways to use soft plastic baits for bass fishing. Just slide some weights on the line, tie on a hook, thread on a soft plastic bait, like a plastic worm, tube or craw and you’re ready to catch some big bad bass! Carolina Rig The Carolina rig is a super effective plastic bait rig that is especially perfect for going after bottom feeding fish and fish like bass. In this rig setup, the weight is fixed above the hook, and can be used with a number of soft plastic baits, like worms, craws or tubes. The Carolina rig is suitable for beginner anglers. Tear Drop and Bullet Sinkers Tear Drop: Bullet Sinkers: High-quality sinkers that are designed for use with jig rigs for spin fishing. These sinkers are one of the most popular choices among anglers. Tails An extremely efficient enhancement for lures such as spinners and spinnerbaits, Tails deliver superb flashing baitfish imitation, making them irresistible for predatory fish like Pike and Muskies. New bite system for North America waterways New Exploring missions: New 39 exploring missions will be available on these locations: Neherrin Mudwater Rocky Emerald Ghent-Terneuzen Falcon Everglades Tiber White Moose Quanchkin Saint-Croix San Joaquin Kaniq Creek Sander Baggersee Akhtuba Weeping Willow Do not miss the chance to experience your angling skills! New DLC And last, but not least ! THREE new spots DLCs: All THREE in ONE new Pro Angler Sport Bundle!;) Tight lines!;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ma6iq Man Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 Where are the patch notes? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynzzezway Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 I find it very interesting that all the changes made are very detailed EXCEPT for the details about the "New Bite System". This is deceiving, and is obviously something that will negatively effect our game play. It has made it too hard and boring to enjoy. Cast into a mess of spawning fish and get zero bites - or 1 bite that takes 5 minutes to finally strike. This game is already expensive enough, now we can't even catch half the fish we did a few days ago. News just casually mentions this change.. like we wouldn't notice? Many of us will leave if this continues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators FPdimsam Posted November 29, 2019 Moderators Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 "New bite system" means that a new fish AI from European waterways has been implemented at all waterways of North America. I personally do not see this as a problem. Have you ever fishing in Europe? Now the hunt for fish became much more fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ma6iq Man Posted November 29, 2019 Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 What is the European bite system like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators FPdimsam Posted November 29, 2019 Moderators Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 Fish does not constantly bites in one spot, it moves around the water area and you have to look for new spots for fishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadu2 Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) :X Well, I've been playing this game for a long time and in my opinion it has never been as bad as it is now. This new patch has done away with fish bites in Alaska. Since the patch was released I never filled my net. The game is very boring, I spend more time looking at the landscape than fighting with the fish. It comes to give me sleep! I would like the game to be as it was before, it was more fun. I don't know if the idea of making this change came from the developers or the players request, but whatever they tried to do went wrong. Maybe they tried to make the game more realistic, and it's OK to try it! But you can not forget that it is still a game, and that being fun is more important than being realistic. Anyway, I don't want to offend anyone or downplay the work done, however, I have to be honest and give you feedback on a change made in the game. That's it, I hope somehow the feedback can help you improve the game. Edited November 30, 2019 by Cadu2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
organicweed2 Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) 54 minutes ago, Cadu2 said: Would recommend it for being a well developed and well detailed game. However, support has to acknowledge its errors. Stop blaming the players, especially experienced players who play for a long time, accept the tips and correct their mistakes. Nerf in the game shows development incoherence; Increasing fish stamina above what the equipment can handle, completely impairs gameplay, that's a big mistake; Having bottom fishing tackle above 21kg, and a leader of only 19.5kg does not justify, makes such gear impotential. Remember, we don't have a tugboat to drag these fish. The equipment that the game offers has become useless in the face of the abusive increase in fish stamina. Be more coherent and correct stamina by matching the equipment the game has, We can no longer drag the fish with the strongest brutus, absurd what they did. We are no longer getting the fish out with float fishing equipment, this change has killed float fishing equipment. Not even bottom fishing tackles are getting the fish out. The delay is absurd to be able to drag the fish, not in real life and no other game is like this. Where are the fish, you have nerfed the maps, reduced the amount of fish by 20%. Your greatly reduced the catch of the unique fish. When you correct the items mentioned, I change my assessment. I moved today to not recommended after much stress in catching and attempting to pull fish. Bad idea the increase of stamina absurdly, you lost track of the game. A game is for our enjoyment, not to cause more stress. Here's the tip. Edited November 30, 2019 by organicweed2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the hunt for fish became much more fun! how can you say this is better and more fun,when i come on i want to catch fish not sit there and stare at the water,i'm not trying to be an a-hole or anything but i've supported you guys since 2015 and can't believe that anybody thinks this is a better setup.now we have to level up to level 55,i've been on for a few hours and only got like 3500 xp,how can you level up when hardly catching fish or the fish you catch are just regular fish.if a guy comes on for an hour and you catch a fish or 2 then you have to try and find where the fish are again,this is a game you guys are making it from fun to frustrating and like i said people had no problems paying for the premium every year to help keep the game going.this was my favorite GAME,i would come on an hour before i went to work trying to catch a uni rainbow trout back in the days and then when i came home i couldn't wait to get on the game again but now i just want to smash the game.maybe you guys can figure out another system so that the fish spawn at the uni times and after that hour let them move however you have it now so guys that want to catch big fish can and go after the fish they want to hunt down and all the info that's out there can still be used.one more thing why are the fish smaller now too,i've been trying to catch a 71 pound clear muskie but now it looks like the biggest is 65 pounds now on the leader boards.bring the uni's back like they were and you'll get my premium money every year and i'm sure there's alot of other people out there that feel the same way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You expressed yours. And it, without a doubt, will be taken into account. It's already taken, because bite rate in american waterways is already changed upward.

With the new system this game got even better now and overall it finally starting to make some sense for a change tbh. PRO mode would make mega changes without messing about whole game and loosing those who don't want to catch 9:35 uni's P.S. I know I said it before, but this would solved a lot of problems...

Chicky_Chickington Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Is it intentional that on rods you have a bite on but can't currently tend to, even the tiniest fish can break pretty strong leaders? You used to only lose your bait when you were unable to get to that rod in time, now your bait hook and leader are all lost. Getting annoying very quickly.

Getting annoying very quickly. same here put rod down to bring in other rod and i loose all my stuff before i can go back to reel in fish because it takes 15 minutes to get fish in lost sinker hook and bait,also when i buy bait it will only give me 10 and the rest is getting sent home,this never happened either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
