shizuma Posted May 10, 2022 Report Share Posted May 10, 2022 Hello. I am playing Fishing Planet on PS4. Sometimes I see a red line in the upper left corner of the screen. When this appears, the screen gets choppy. What does this display mean? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PH_Carpman99 Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 I believe it usually appears when the internet connection is not good (slow, high error rate etc), the problem could be anywhere between your PS and the FP servers. Stopping and restarting the game, a system reset or try accessing the game at a later time are options possibly worth considering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other explanation is that your previous generation PS4 console cannot adequately support the connectivity requirements of the current release of FP. I have two Xbox consoles which use the same internet connection for FP. My Xbox series X never sees the connectivity icon you mention, but my Xbox one X frequently does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saberneko Posted May 12, 2022 Report Share Posted May 12, 2022 To fix this issue, does it help to connect to a Private Room vs a Public Room? Also, does connection issue also affect bite rate? I run into this issue on occasion, especially during Special Events. Things seem to slow down considerably although I am still connected.

I have seen it happen less when in a private room but not enough to bother with changing to private as I don’t care much about the issue when grinding. in comps it is unavoidable, as it always happens since you are in a common lobby. I dont notice a difference in the bite rate, but definitely a reduction in the amount of fish you can hook, especially if the fish is biting when the connection icon is also displayed. The lag that occurs affects the timing of your strike, or the ability to sense a bite happening Edited May 12, 2022 by Tonto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
