Tmif Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 Since the patch, myself and several members of my club have had an issue trying to fast forward time after 9 pm. After pressing SQUARE to bring up the menu, it skips past the options and advances straight to 5 am. I contacted support but in their response they said I pressed the X button twice. They don't know their own button sequences. I thought that if others were having this issue and shared it on the forum, then FP couldn't keep telling individuals by email that they were doing it wrong. I don't care about the baitcoins I lost with this bug, but I am extremely frustrated that they keep blaming issues on players and not taking responsibility. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushidowarrior Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 had the same issue, but I found a way around it. I would place my thumb on square and roll it down to x while i was still holding square down and it let me do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleyewhisperer Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) Do these patches even get tested prior to launch? Players shouldn’t have to create work arounds for poor quality control. Edited April 27, 2018 by Walleyewhisperer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tmif Posted April 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Workarounds are one thing. Blaming the players is another. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really, Tony is right, it not the players fault. I had the same issue at Lousiana. I left and came back, and seemed to work after that. Same thing happened at Michigan. Those are the only two venues that I've tried to this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hate_ful Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Dont blame players for programming errors it was fine before patch 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nordak76 Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Confirmed this bug. Just had the same issue. Hit square to access skip options and forwarded straight to 5 AM. This was in Michigan on the floating dock. This needs to be fixed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walleyewhisperer Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Issue has happened to me 3 times now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdog013 Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Hasn't happened to me yet after 5 days in Florida. Their response to you guys makes no sense to me. If you actually did hit square twice, doesn't it advance to the next hour, not 5:00am? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdog013 Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Nevermind, it's square then x, now I'm really confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleyewhisperer Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Nobody is pressing the button twice. The glitch is when you press it once it automatically forwards to 5am. FPs response was a complete lack of caring about the issue and just blaming the player. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbiem287 Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Had this a few times at Michigan... really annoying as i spend the day after pike and muskies and then finish off with a couple of blue cat in the evening but as soon as i try to forward to 10pm for the cat it has a mini meltdown and takes me to the next morning 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precisionist Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 It happened to me once, but not the 2nd time I did it. The first time I had advanced to 9pm, did some fishing, then hit square to check and see if my forwarding timer had run out yet...instantly went to 5am. The 2nd night I was fishing, logged off for a bit, logged on several hours later and got the regular menu after hitting square. So it seems to be tied into the forwarding timer...if it's still counting down it warps you to 5am, but if it's run out it gives you the regular menu?

The ticket you submitted is not closed as we continue to investigate the issue. As the initial test failed to reproduce the issue additional suggestions and questions were asked. Some information in regards what our logs showed was provided as well. At the moment of your initial inquiry, it was literally 1st time someone has addressed the possible issue. I fail to see at which point the blame was put on anyone. Would be nice to receive more reports from other users as their account data may be helpful in nailing down the possible issue.

Violentvole Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 I'm on Quanchkin and same happened to me. Tried skipping from 9pm again after that and it was ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violentvole Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 Continuation. Fished for a while, skipped to 9pm, tried to skip and it auto skipped until morning again. Further attempts were fine ( at the cost of 8 or 9 baitcoins ). It appears to me that it only happens once - but that's just me, on Quanchkin. Not tried elsewhere yet to see if it's a one time thing or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precisionist Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 This seems like an obvious fix but it seems to be working for me...instead of pressing square I press and hold it until the menu comes up completely. I have not had the issue since I've been doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiskerFisher Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Sounds like one of those odd coding glitches where something shouldn't happen yet does anyway. Hopefully they resolve it. I wish I could say I have experienced this as well... but I don't forward at night. I just fish until the bite dies and call it a night normally. So far I've only night fished in three locations. Aside from NY, the night fishing for me has been so terrible that I call it quits after the first so-called "peak hours" and leave the location. Night fishing never has been too good for me on this game (excluding NY which I kill at night), although at least I can see better now since I earned the miner's flashlight helmet.
