[p][/p][p]Hey Anglers,[/p][p]It’s been a busy couple of weeks for our team, and we want to thank all of you for patiently waiting for the next Bug Fix Patch.[/p][p]In this update, we’ve tackled a number of issues reported by players and spotted by our QA team, and one of the most important issues where massive fish (500+ kg) would get stuck in the final few meters and couldn’t be landed for a while. This should now be resolved![/p][p]We also heard your feedback about the challenge of landing the largest fish in the game, like Unique Black Marlin and Unique Swordfish over 500 kg, taking too long to bring in. To understand this better, we analyzed all catches of these giants within the last month, looking at the time from hook to landing.[/p][p]Here’s what we found:[/p]

• [p]Around 50% of these catches take players 13–14 minutes on average.[/p]
• [p]The majority (50–99%) take 15–25 minutes on average.[/p]
• [p]Only about 1% of catches go up to 50 minutes on average and sometimes even longer  — rare cases, but they do happen.
  [/p]

[p]If you find yourself struggling to land these giants within 15–25 minutes, consider working on your technique, seeking tips from experienced anglers, and making sure you’re using the best gear available. Please, also keep in mind that at the highest levels, even more powerful rods and reels become available to help you bring in these beasts faster. It’s very important , these are ocean monsters — some up to 600 kg, there must be that true big game fishing challenge![/p][h3]Now, let’s dive into the rest of the fixes and improvements included in this patch:[/h3]

1. [p]Fixed a bug where exiting the settings triggered an “unsaved changes” message, and the ESC button became unresponsive.[/p]
2. [p]Sunglasses once again reduce sun brightness as intended.[/p]
3. [p]Addressed an issue when big fish would hang in the last 2-3 meters for some time before it could be landed on the catamaran.[/p]
4. [p]Fixed incorrect detection when using Vertical Jigging.[/p]
5. [p]Fish radars on the catamaran’s onboard monitors and the captain’s bridge now display consistent results.[/p]
6. [p]Addressed an issue allowing players to pass through certain objects on the largest island in the Maldives location.[/p]
7. [p]Adjusted the volume of the Bar Music in Maldives to match the music volume set in the game settings.[/p]
8. [p]Bar music from the resort no longer plays far out at sea in Maldives.[/p]
9. [p]The player profile now opens correctly from the local chat.[/p]
10. [p]Fixed a bug where synchronous relocation via the captain’s pin during Fishing Together sessions caused the game to break for one of the players.[/p]
11. [p]Resolved an issue where purchasing a license would sometimes result in the wrong license being bought.[/p]
12. [p]Fixed a bug causing players to fall underwater when fast-forwarding time to the next day and declining boat rental.[/p]
13. [p]Addressed disconnects occurring after fish were taken into hand.[/p]
14. [p]Fixed an issue where players were teleported back to the beach when moving through bushes on the main Atoll at Maldives.[/p]
15. [p]Corrected the overly bright, acidic color of plankton at 4a.m at Maldives.[/p]
16. [p]Fixed an issue where the cooldown was not removed correctly when skipped using a Baitcoin.[/p]
17. [p]Fixed an issue where changing a boat’s PIN caused a blinking effect.[/p]
18. [p]Resolved an issue where boats and kayaks appeared upside down after being returned to their start position.[/p]
19. [p]Fixed an issue where the character appeared elevated above the wooden bridge on Falcon Lake.[/p]
20. [p]Fixed an issue where received Marker Buoys displayed stubs and empty buttons in the “Receive a Buoy from Friend” window.[/p]
21. [p]Added email notifications for automatically approved Sponsored Competitions.[/p]
22. [p]Fixed an issue where no hint was shown about boat relocation to the start position after a player changed their PIN.[/p]
23. [p]Fixed an issue where Jonin 20000 SE reel thumbnails were mixed up in the shop and inventory.[/p]
24. [p]Resolved an issue where the Rod Holder’s height adjuster on Chamaeleon Catamaran stopped working after teleporting with a Navigation Buoy.[/p]
25. [p]Fixed an issue where the competition details window automatically opened when hovering over the first competition in the list.[/p]
26. [p]Resolved an issue where feeder and sinker items were missing from templates.[/p]
