Roy Posted January 9, 2018 Report Posted January 9, 2018 This is another situation where I could turned out to be a fool but I need to ask this . I was playing FP 10 hrs ago and it was sunny day in game, after catching the Uni clear muskie I went to sleep. So today right now when I opened my game again I see all the things are same but my weather is different, it suddenly changed sunny to partly and it's raining. So am I missing anything because this is the 3rd time I have noticed this. Another thing, earlier if u rent a kayak it was for 24hrs real hrs but now it changes with ur in game hour. You will notice it only after fast forwarding ur time that ur kayak license is about expire. I have added few screenshots. If I am missing something about those two issues/things plz enlighten me. Thanks a lot. Quote
Jeff1210 Posted January 9, 2018 Report Posted January 9, 2018 yep kayak rental was always 24 game hours. if you skip it still counts. Theres a kayak for 33k credits at falcon lake if you don't wanna rent them any more. Pretty sure weather is actually server related. How it manages when you get on to what the weather is I don't know. Usually though when there is bad weather everyone seems to have it but it can and does change. It can also change throughout the day sometimes (like I think is happening for you here) itll forecast partly but rain for first 2 hours then go to partly etc. Long story short...it happens lol. Kinda surprised you've only seen it 3 times. Guess depends on how many days you made it through last session etc. Quote

Guess depends on how many days you made it through last session etc. My point was actually when I started and stopped the session it was sunny day on the weather section but when I logged back again after 10 hrs to resume 2nd day of trip (real time 10hrs ) how it changed to partly? Because when I quit the game it has to be in paused condition and lets say if it's not then my 2nd day supposed to be 3rd day but it was not. I know weather keeps changing but not in game particular day, it always changes on the next game day as we can see the forecast. Luckily I have the game footage of this particular incident though it's not a big deal but still I just want to know why it happened? Edited January 9, 2018 by Roy Quote
J.Mitchell WV Posted January 9, 2018 Report Posted January 9, 2018 Roy, I feel your delima here. So many times I have been at a venue, get to a prime uni time, and decide I've had enough for the day and log off. Only to load up the next day...it's the right time were I left off alright, but I left on a sunny day, now it's partly cloudy. Now you either have to tough it out, advance time, or skip to a new day entirely. Which I don't mind doing any of these things, but it's a pain in my backside. Quote

So u r saying it's normal but if it's normal why it doesn't happen everyday. Yes I am in dilemma just to find out what could be the exact reason nothing else. I think I am going type a support mail very soon asking proper reason why it happend. It's not big deal but as we are playing I think we should know about it that what it is. 1 Quote
J.Mitchell WV Posted January 9, 2018 Report Posted January 9, 2018 Don't know why it doesn't happen all the time. Sometimes everythings the same as when I left, other times it isn't. 1 Quote
Violentvole Posted January 9, 2018 Report Posted January 9, 2018 Same as you guys. Doesn't bother me too much, but it's a pain when you leave knowing you're coming into uni time, then you fire it back up and the conditions have changed so as to be unproductive for whatever uni you were after. 1 Quote
Nabla Posted January 9, 2018 Report Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) Weather definitely changes every real day. I'm pretty sure it just pushes in game days forward so that what was day 2 becomes day 1 and so forth, though i never payed enough attention to it to guarantee it is so. You wouldn't notice any difference when there are two days of the same weather in a row. PS. I play on PC but I don't think it's any different on PS4. Edited January 9, 2018 by Nabla 1 Quote

Nope it doesn't change game days as I am still fishing on day 2. I left it on day 2 after catching that Uni Muskie as it was 2am at night then I went to sleep. So next day when I woke up and tried take over from where I left and everything was same apart from bloody weather. As of right now I am about to finish up for 2nd day. Regarding ur 2nd point it could be true. Quote
Nabla Posted January 9, 2018 Report Posted January 9, 2018 That's not what I meant. You would still be one day 2 of the trip, however weather pattern would be of the 3rd day if you played to it in the same real day. Don't know how to explain it more clearly, too many different types of days Anyway, I'll check if it's actually true tonight. 1 Quote

That's correct. I noticed many times when i log off in the middle of the fishing day. When you log on you're at the same trip day but with the weather of the next day before you leave. That's just happen when the real time reset for the game. The weather day restart at 12:00 (midnight) Easter time. GMT - 5 I noticed cuz many times i left the game in the middle of a fishing day and happens to me. Now i just left the fishing trip open at 5 am.

dusty42000 Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 I tried to get the weather to change, but if it's not great weather, I guess you're stuck with it. BTW, there's 4 new kayaks in the main store: $30k, $33k, $35k and 330 Bait Coins. 1 Quote

I can't type too much as my screen is messed up and got the reply from support as well. Plz feel free to contact them. Quote
Nabla Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 My theory appears to be correct. So sometimes it is possible to leave after one peak and get straight to the other next day with a bit of planning Quote

dusty42000 Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 Mmmm... That gold one, drool. Quote

Violentvole Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Well I obviously needed the gold one. Word of warning, once you buy it it changes to a gold stripe down the side - not a total gold kayak as the pictures infer. 2 Quote
