(Yes I know it says 1.13 in-game, but I forgot to change the version text. 😂 If it says Build 050826-1, it's the new version!)
New and changed:
New system: Reelroll! When you are fishing, you can now press LT or LMB to reel in your bobber a little bit. This scares the fish away, but another random fish will appear! This way, if you recognize the silhouette of a fish you really don't want, just Reelroll and see which fish comes next! You can get up to 3 Reelrolls on each cast, depending on how far out you cast your bobber.
Nibble Combos have been changed to better reward regular fishing:
Normal Nibble Combos can now go up to 30x!
One with the Fish combos now start at 10x and go all the way up to 50x!
Fish can now be upgraded all the way to the top in the Mutation Upgrade Machine!
3x Celestial = Radioactive
3x Radioactive = Mysterious
3x Mysterious = Forbidden
The upgraded fish from the Mutation Upgrade Machine and the Legendary Upgrade Machine is no longer based on an average of the used fish. Instead, the upgraded fish will now have:
a random star rating in all categories
a random nibble combo bonus (from 0x to 10x)
a 50% chance to get a random modifier.
Fishing Together: When 2 or more players are in the same fishing zone, players there gain +10% Legendary Chance for each player in the zone, up to a max of +60% (6 players in the same zone). This bonus stacks multiplicative with existing bonuses, so in events or when a legendary is spotted, this gives a big bonus to legendary chance. For example, in the Admin Abuse event with all legendaries available and +1000% legendary chance event bonus:
Alone: 1/83 legendary chance
2 players: 1/69 legendary chance
6 players: 1/52 legendary chance
Some Skills have received some tweaks and changes. Some previously useless skills are now a lot better, and descriptions have been changed to better reflect what the skills do.
Fish values for certain fish has been changed to better reflect the rarity tiers:
Fish value for Uncommon fish has been increased by +25%.
Fish value for Rare fish has been increased by +50%.
Maps now cost a lot more money, but less coins. This reflects the recent changes to the Mysterious Machine, where players can spend coins to get extremely powerful fish early on.
Prestige journal points requirement has been increased to reflect all the new fish, new mutations, and legendaries. It is now based on a percentage of max journal points available, which means that it will now increase steadily as new fish are added to the game.
The star rating system has been made completely random, and as a result 4 and 5 star rated fish will now show up a lot more often.
The Cast Power Meter now ramps up in speed from 0 to 100, instead of being completely linear.
Fixes:
Fixed a bug that caused "previously owned" player bases to still be marked as taken. This resultet in players getting stuck on the intro boat sequence because no base was available.
Fixed a bug that made Fishy Raids impossible to complete because of a hard cap on fish value. I believe my original idea with difficulty scaling was good, but the hard cap on value was a stupid addition (bugged or not). The cap has now been removed, and the menu will now show the raid value target correctly based on who is actually playing.
Fixed a bug with the "Legendary Spotted"-system on Scarab Shoals, where it sometimes spawned the spotted Legendary fish on the raid-version of Scarab Shoals instead of the correct island.
Active Waters and Legendary Spotted effects have been moved to the right fishing zone on Beefy Beach.
Fixed a bug with business card visuals.
The new coins will now show up correctly with a popup when found while fishing.
The next goal system will now disappear correctly when the player has achieved all goals.
