GONE Fishing Announces Major Fixes and Enhancements

Developers of the co-op multiplayer survival horror game GONE Fishing have released a significant update packed with new features, bug fixes, and improvements. The update aims to enhance gameplay, address player-reported issues, and introduce fresh challenges for players to tackle.

New Features and Events

A new event has been added where players can face death from a creature emerging from the water.
A new Catchable Monster has been introduced, along with sightings in the wild, adding variety to encounters.
Version 1 of fish rotting is now available on the hardest difficulty, introducing a decay mechanic where fish undergo a 'rot tick' every five minutes. Various factors affect the rate of decay, and cooked fish reduce point loss by half. Additionally, fish in inventory do not rot.
Visual improvements have been made to Puffer Fish, enhancing their appearance in gameplay.
VOIP range has been increased by approximately 40%, improving communication among players during co-op sessions.
The base value of Goldfish has been increased from 33 to 45, boosting their value in the game economy.

Bug Fixes and Improvements

Edge cases causing upgrades to reset in the save system have been fixed.
An issue where joining a game resets upgrades has been resolved.
Problems with Jeremy Wade and fishing difficulty resetting to Average Angler have been addressed.
Logic has been added to prevent pole level issues when at max upgrades.
An updated cabin is now applied to all maps, not just the lake map, enhancing consistency in game environments.
An edge case where the endgame screen wouldn't show, preventing exit from the game, has been resolved.
