Hey there, fellow Ylanders!
In our quest to create a great Exploration experience, we are getting back to various features that have a great potential but in their current form and shape are simply not good enough.
One of them is definitely fishing... so what can you expect to change in the upcoming update 1.10? Firstly the whole "feeling" of catching fish gets better. Not only is fishing getting better visuals, but also better controls that now require a bit of skill to actually catch something. In 1.10 you will be watching the float and waiting for it go down.
And since fishing will require a bit more skill it should also be more rewarding, right? Well, that's why there's a lot of things to catch! And not just fish... :)The type of catch you get will depend on not only where you are (such as what depth is the water around you), but also on the weather conditions. You're more likely to catch certain fish during the clear morning weather, while some are active during the night or when it rains (and some even during thunderstorms!). On top of fish variety, we've added several different types of fishing rods.
We hope that the new fishing will be yet another feature you'll like in 1.10.
That's it for today.
We'll talk again in a week so until then... stay classy and healthy!
