Ketec Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) Tried whole 20 minutes in southeast corner. 20 murkray baits later i had just 5 goopas. Fish simply wont spawn at all. And yes, i do use dye. Edited October 28, 2017 by Ketec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostedMike Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Can confirm, used 10 baits for 1 murkray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketec Posted October 28, 2017 Author Share Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) It's not even bait... the fish themselves do not seem to spawn at all. I usually got 2-3 fish every dye. Iv gone through 20 dyes for ONE fish. Not even common fish. To make things worse, i hear that fish are noticeably faster and escape often after first scare.

Fiftycentis Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 no fish spawns for me too, with no baits i had hard times getting 3 small goopollas, while on the lakes i got in less time at least 20 fishes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nesodos Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 its not only the ocean i tried to fish in every biome during the last night cycle and nearly nothing spawned at all the only reliable way to get more than 1 fish every 10 minutes on ocean and small lakes was to throw bait into a hotspot but even then only a few fish spawned if any at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrectius Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Kinda weird, tried a bit more and they sometimes dissapear just when you fish another one next to it, when you catch that one and try to go for the other you notice he is not there anymore. Well it looks like they implemented something to stop them for going to far as well; more testing required as is it now, is just my impressions since last patch.

Dama73 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Yeah I've been having this happen alot lately, I can stand there for 5-10 mins at a time and will struggle to get even 1 or 2 small common fish to spawn, and at the first scare they swim off at super speed.

Midas Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 literally getting murkray by throwing bait FIRST then right clicking to aim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cara360 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Weird, i got like 4 murkray fish in one specific spot, about 2 before on said spot. I did try nearby hotspot but none of them didn't spawn any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrokenBullet Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 I placed my bait in a bubble hotspot area, and I got about 3 fish. I usually get around 7 fish. Tried another spot, and noticed the fish weren't spawning in the ocean hotspot area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then proceeded to walk around a bit go back and throw another bait (walk around as in leave). This produced a total of 10 murkray with only 2 bait. fishing takes time don't burn your bait!

Tveoh Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Fish spawning seems bugged, first 10 minutes or so of fishing spawning seems normal, then just stopped completely. even moving to new area's didn't seem to fix anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All other didn't spawn any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish alone in invite only or solo. Edited October 28, 2017 by Vladimir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish alone in invite only or solo. The thing is after the last "hotfix" the spawn rate of rare fishes seems to have decreased, try to get some cuthols and norgs (specially cuthols, havent seen one since hotfix); murkrays spawn seems a little less than before but they still spawn. Also baits dont work for the whole duration of the hotspot anymore, duration is around 4 minutes, well tbh i dont care much about this change. hotspots tend to last between 5 up to 10 minutes since the moment they appear. For now ill just keep my norg and cuthol baits until i hear something offcial from them, confirming the nerf or fixing if it wasnt intented. ill focus on mining for now.

Voidforged Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 I also feel that the fish spawn rate has been reduced quite drastically. Not just rare fish, but I'm actually having difficulty farming the common ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, to be fair, fishing was way too rewarding comparing to mining, and getting standing from fishing was quite easy, i wont be surprised if they just nerfed it to make it "fair".

Retchid Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Just caught 22 fish missed about the same in ocean around large Grineer camp and pond nearby- no dye or bait was used was on public and fire fights going on around and had to kill more than a few Grineer and Flying machines in the process. - about 20 mins in total. Myth busted - not nerfed or bugged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellknight1988 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 I can confirm the same problem. At the beginning I could catch like 10 fish in the bigger pond to the left of the entrance and then it just stopped...literally no more fish spawned. I didnt change a thing, fishing as usual, but everywhere I went was nothing to be found. I even heard the "bubble sound" accuring to indicate fish spawning, but the site was empty. I also know that these hotspots locations change from time to time, but at most sites there werent any to found either. almost no hotspots and even there was no fish dispite bait, correct spear, hotspot and so forth. I didnt change a thing at fishing but the fish seemed to have changed it would be ok, if rare fish would spawn less, but not a single fish after a short period is reeeeally strange. It would be kind, if someone would keep an eye on that. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltygr33n Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) I have a question: Do you use bait on the water with ripples? From what I've experienced so far, where there are ripples, if you do not stand on the shores, fish are very unlikely to spawn. For example, if you're on top of a rock, fishes are not likely to spawn, but if you were to jump on land where you can touch the water, fish will start spawning, that's how it was for me. I was fishing by the sea where ripples were, threw bait from top of rock, aimed and waited for fish, but no fish spawn, then I proceeded to go and touch the water, but little to no luck, only 1 or 2 fish spawn, but then I went and jumped off the rock on shore and got close to the water, all of sudden 4 - 5 fish spawned. Forgot to mention that, for me, where there are ripples, lots of fishes spawn when bait is thrown, non ripples yield poor results.
