Ultimate Fishing® Simulator 2 News

Good morning folks!
Some of you may know me as LiquidSnake, some will know me just as Marcin. Today I will replace Raintek and I am eager to show you the new map!


The first map you played in our Demo was Jackson Park in the USA. Today I would like to introduce you map called “Letnisko Zalesie” in Poland.

It’s a small natural lake located in deep woods consisting of, among others spruces, birches, beeches, and lots of shrubs. You can find here holiday homes for rent – and here is the name comes from “Letnisko Zalesie” translated directly would sound like “Zalesie summer resort”.



Lake is pretty small but next to it you will find a small, shallow, calm river. The fisheries may be small, but you will meet iconic species of Polish waters there.







So, as fisheries aren’t too big you will be able to catch here up to 10 different fish species. They will be among others: Roach, Perch, Crucian Carp, Grass Carp, Common Carp, Bream, Chub, Asp, Tench, and Northern Pike.





Together with the team, I encourage you to write comments! Please share your opinion with us!

What do you think about the map? Is it good? Or you don't like it? What should we change?

Did you like the pike?

We want to IMPROVE! But for this purpose, we need your feedback :)

Take care folks!

Regards,
Marcin

Hello everyone,
It's time to regularly reveal the things we've been working on over the past months.

This news won't be long but rather a series of short news that we will try to post every week or two :)

So today...


One thing we have been working on in the last few months has been bottom fishing and all kinds of additional activities related to it, such as making groundbaits.

As in real life, you will be able to mix few things together. In UFS2 you will be able to choose 3 types of ingredients. Each of them can be effective for different fish species.

Important note: visible packages are just for preview purposes.

You can choose how many specific ingredients you would like to put in the bucket. After that, you will have to add the proper amount of water. If you will add too much or not enough water, the bait will not be as effective as you would wish to but we implemented a special indicator that will help you do it right.



Water added? Good! Let's mix everything together!



Looking good! So how can you use it? In few different ways. First of all, you will be able to push it to your bottom fishing basket:



You can use bait also in a typical way:

• Throw it into the water;
  
• Shoot it with a slingshot.
  

Besides baits, we have been also doing some tweaks and fixes after the demo release. There have been some changes on the Jackson Park map, gameplay, fish fights, and UI.



Thats it for today! Tell us what you think about this feature!

Hello everyone,
It’s been a while since the last news but good news – we are alive and development is moving forward!

One of the issues you reported was the poor quality of the characters in the game - and we've just been working on them recently! Please take a look at them and keep in mind - this is not the final look 😊





[h2]More than just adjustment[/h2]
Besides fixes, thousands of new code lines, dozens of new fish species – we also prepare new features and equipment.

One of them is bait indicators and rod pods:

We hope you will take part in it and your answers will be a source of knowledge for us and help us improve the game.

Remember - the survey is about your impressions of the DEMO version.

We appreciate your time writing with us, posting, and reporting bugs. Really - we appreciate that and will try to improve the game as best we can.
