Ultimate Fishing® Simulator 2 News

Hello everyone,
a bit late but we are launching WEEK 4 and a new map - Курильское озеро! It's a volcanic lake in the Asian part of Russia, on the southern tip of Kamchatka. Located in the caldera between the Ilinskij and Kambalnyj volcanoes. The number of fish in the lake ranges from 260,000 to over 6 million. Kurile Lake is the largest one in Asia. The map is based on backwaters and river basins around Курильское озеро.

So...we are going close to the end of Playtests! But we would like to extend it for an extra week with additional social/online features. So keep an eye on the UFS2 news section!

Hello everyone,
we are really grateful for your feedback! For one week we collected almost 900 surveys! That's amazing - so much feedback - we are just shocked!

So as we promised today we are moving into Week 2 of Playtests. That means... NEW MAP - Slovakia and some bugs fixed based on your feedback!

[h2]SLOVAKIA[/h2]


Fish Species

• Chub
  
• Ide
  
• Roach
  
• Atlantic salmon
  
• Rainbow Trout
  
• European grayling

[h3]IMPORTANT: The underwater camera can be bugged in shallow water - we recommend using the view from ABOVE the water! Of course... topwaters should work best on Slovakia :> [/h3]

[h2]Updates[/h2]
Patch Notes Version 0.4.29p

FIXES:

• We removed the fishing line consumption after each cast. Since this update fishing line should be consumed when you will catch a fish, after changing baits or when you will lose fish.
  
• Adjusted amount of experience per fish.
  
• We have added the missing unit conversion onHUD (leader length, depth, distance).
  
• Other minor fixes.
  

ADDITIONALLY:

• PROBABLY fixed the FPS drops - we need to confirm it (your feedback matters here).
  
• PROBABLY fixed the problem with updating tasks, but we are not sure if it will work for everyone.

Good morning/evening or whatever time is in your place! Just Hi!

So maybe let's start with the most important thing!

[h3]Just....Slovakia[/h3]




Slovakia lies almost entirely in the drainage basin of the Danube (meaning the drainage basin of the Black Sea). Since 60% of the country's area is covered by mountains, the majority of its rivers are mountainous in nature.

Confirmed Fish Species for Slovakia

• Chub
  
• Ide
  
• Roach
  
• Atlantic salmon
  
• Rainbow Trout
  
• European grayling

• Brown Trout

[h2]STORE[/h2]
For the last few months, we have been working on store, items and many more things! So here is how the store looks now!








[h2]GAME MODES[/h2]
So like in the first version you will be able to choose between 2 game modes! Normal and realistic.

• Normal mode is the best for new players or ones who just like to catch PLENTY of fish without wasting their time.
  
• Realistic - this one will be most likely hard. Fish bait-ratio will be on a much lower level and fish will give better fights, so controlling line tension and reel break will be really important. Additionally, some features aren't available in this mode e.g., underwater camera, bite alarms, teleport, and weather changing capabilities). Has separate rankings.
  
• Sandbox - this mode will be added in the future. It will unlock everything in the game without the possibility to level up, earn in-game cash, and participate in leaderboards or rankings.

So that's all for today!

Cheers,
Rafal
