    i didn't have that many problems with fishing till now, but since the hotfix was announced I have been experiencing every single problem mentioned in this thread >:) are we going to be compansated for all the money and time we already spent?

    and I love how the annnoucement says "More bugs might follow", well... wasn't the test server supposed to be used to fix all the problems before introducing fishing to the live server?
    Thank you for a good laugh. :) I overlooked that at first, but your post made me aware that "more bugs might follow" means exactly that. After a hot fix anouncement and application you might experience more bugs than before. :):):)

    With the fishing mini game, my line becomes 'invisible' most of the time. But when I do get to catch a fish, the timer goes extremely fast, (moves from yellow to red), and then the line snaps (with a big explosion); and with no fish being caught. :'(
    Little money, little fish.A lot of money a lot of fish.
  • So I've already been stopped by a bug in the task to "buy a large bucket."  Problem is, I've already completely upgraded the large bucket, and the task won't acknowledge that I already have the large bucket.


    Oh, yeah.  I've been locked out of my 3 farms on test server since the reset last week.  My team members are at a dead end when visiting my farm.  It's a really BAD bug, and here's the link:

    https://community.goodgamestudios.com/bigfarm/testboard/discussion/136493/unable-to-access-main-farm-gourmet-farm-and-flower-farm#latest

    The way the lockout bug worked is that I wasn't locked out until the reset.  We have a reset sometime today.

    Last 2 task asking for me to fish for xxx kg of bonito and some other fish.  Anyone else having trouble getting the Bonito catches to register.  I can complete the other fish requirements but Bonito only registers my catch weight on occasion.  I finally finished the last task but it took 3 trips all bonito to finish and now this one is catfish and 210kg bonito I've already fished the scene once and only gained 15kg of bonito each fish averages 5-6 kg and there were at least 20 in the scene.

    Just noticed when I catch them it also doesn't increase my count in farm management.

    oh my goodness, i wish you would fix the bugs that were found by the test servers as many of the things listed on the forum was already posted on your test server!  Why have the testers waste their time away from their main farms and their cooperatives if you are not even going to listen to them??? The biggest issue for me now is that once you reel in a fish the stupid fishing game no longer works even though you have everything in your tackle box that you need!  Please we asked time and time again in the test forum for you to fix bug issues before going live. I will not purchase gold any longer ever since you continue to ignore your gamers! Thank you very very much. :'(

    Hi Everyone,


    For those of you with the invisible line, it would really help if you could post your computer specs. For most systems you can go to the start menu, right-click on "computer"  & they should be displayed in Properties. For Windows 10, you can find them in: start menu >settings > about. You can copy/paste them here or send them to me in a PM.

    Thank you :)
    Woah... this is a browser game ,i did noT know we need NASA  computers to play the fishing minigame...

    Yeah mi PC is old,but that should not matter,i can play fine the newest games that we all know are very heavy and demanding,but not a small fishing minigame?
    It makes no sense.
    GGS should really look into this,its not a small bug,its gamebreaking for alot of ppl.

    @Tigrain (BG1) I am sure that should be in the rules somewhere hehe  :p

    Don`t worry, it may be a contributing factor, but so far the specs we have seen look to be good computers. Have you noticed any improvement since the update?

    Nope - still not able to fish - can't even get past the tutorial, because of no line ... (as posted 2 pages ago)

    https://community.goodgamestudios.com/bigfarm/en/discussion/comment/3254137/#Comment_3254137

    What's more: I keep getting thrown off the game ever since this last hotfix - can't even log in at all on my test farm  :'(

    Its a bit easy now to catch fish by yourself,even the ones deep into the water are not too hard and its almost fun :)
    Still line is invisible most of the time though.

    Also sometimes the game doesnt count the fish i catch,i can see them in farm managment ,but when i try to donate them to side task i got an error,and when i refresh they are gone :)

    Bugs again. I can't even get past the first task "Find Oleg". Well I keep finding him and clicking on him but the task doesn't get recognized. No progress. Wow thanks for listening to your customers. We were clear on not making this live yet.

    Attached is what I see every time I click on Oleg. I can't move forward so I can't see what this version of the fishing feature is like. I suppose I'll send a note to support as I have cleared the cache for both my browsers and nothing has changed.
    Ok, looks like it is fixed. Thanks GGS. But I am getting the invisible fishing line for when I cast during the mini game. It is always the 2nd fish and also sometimes the very first fish in the trip.

  • I am on the task of catching 250 kg of catfish. The game is not registering how many catfish I have caught. I also bought catfish bait and it is not registering that either.

    What's more: I keep getting thrown off the game ever since this last hotfix - can't even log in at all on my test farm  :'(

    Same as Jiesta but I have a few more bugs/issues.

    Keep getting the Error 7 code for one. Then I can't see my line when I throw it to fish, have to X out many times then try to cast the line again this is not fun when I spend 10 minutes trying to catch one fish (real life fishing yes that's how that could go). By the time I finally do see a line all of the fish have either disappeared or floated farther to the bottom making it harder to get them to come to the top of the water. This click and hold and release the line is so old right now, I have to make sure I get several extra mouse (I think that is the proper way to use it, ah shucks who cares right now you know where I am going) as this clicking to catch these fish can/will wear out my mouse real quick.

    Then my workers and dog are acting very strange on my farms (yes clean/deleted/cleared flash, browser & cache) they are climbing/walking on top of my cows/chickens/apples/decorations and outside of my farm.

    I still can't get rid of that darn error 7 so now I can't fish myself or attempt to learn to fish myself, I have to send Oil of Olay (Oleg) to fish for the amount I need to finish the task which is a waste of money that could be used to purchase fishing equipment. So here we go on a weekend and problems/issues/bugs that won't be looked at till next week, which could have been put off till next week and rolled out on Monday which gives Tuesday-Friday to see if there would be any issues & work on the hot fixes them. Oh My Goodness. :/

    **Edit**
    I had to come back and edit my post to add another issue. I just lost 3 hooks on one fish, that is crazy. All I needed was one fish to finish the task. I should have 2 hooks left  but once I caught last fish I get a message that I used up all my supplies (something along that line). So I go look in tack box and its the hooks, they weren't given to me I did buy those and I had to turn around and by 3 more to replace those that are missing now. Some kind of fishing experience, I am hotter than fish grease at the KFC. Fix it or dismiss it, cause this isn't working out if we spend more time at the Tack Shop buying items.

    Oh and the only way to get rid of the error 7 code (not sure what is or why it came up) is to log out and back in again. SO lets see now we have to constantly login and out to fish in the mini game, login and out to get rid of errors and login constantly to get into the forum. Hummmmmmmm now I know what it is like to have an on again off again relationship.

    I am trying to fish for these Bluefish that I need to donate (as small as they are it will be a day or so getting the amount needed), have a few to donate and keep getting this error



    Not sure what to do other than keep logging out and back in again....and again........



    **Edit**

    So I tried to donate a few at a time I could donate 3 the first try second try I could on donate 2 third try it wouldn't let me donate anything and switching farms doesn't help. So I am left with the option of logging out and in again.

    Also it is really annoying that the twine/string/line is always disappearing, then when you finally get a line out there the fish are gone again. Then you have to wait for the timer to count down for the fish to reappear.

    Thanks for your reply what a great site  :)
  • Hopefully the bugfix is on the regular game as well as the line is disappearing on the normal game as well.

    Hi Everyone,

    All your feedback has been passed on & the issues of stuck tasks & noises are being looked at - try to avoid right clicking your mouse when fishing as that appears to get the reel noise stuck.

    If your line is constantly snapping, try clicking & releasing, rather than just holding the click until the line snaps.

    For those of you with the invisible line, it would really help if you could post your computer specs. For most systems you can go to the start menu, right-click on "computer"  & they should be displayed in Properties. For Windows 10, you can find them in: start menu >settings > about. You can copy/paste them here or send them to me in a PM.

    Thank you :)
