I'll tell you now since I'm on that, the new ships you could buy at the start of the update are GONE. You can no longer buy them. They were either an unwanted hint, or a huge mistake.

So you cant buy the ships?

Nope, another update will bring them to test...

Jason Bilgemart · #78 08-03-2010, 10:57 PM

Aww, what a let down.

That's why I said, "If I could, I would buy as many of the new ships as I could as quickly as possible

" if I was Unlimited Access, I would have definitely bought a skele ship. Not sure how unwanted of a hint making the new ships briefly available was

It still lets me level up after I mastered fishing at level 20, but whenever I level, it crashes me.

I'm unlimited access on test, but I'm not the type of person to play test often, because it's not open. That's really it, because it feels pointless to me to go on test, when it's not open, where I'm 'competing' with other players.

I didn't see any off the ships at sea, though. I've heard people say, "Yes, I bought this ship, and my friend bought the phantom" but I didn't see them out in open waters.

I agree that if you could actually buy and sail these ships, it probably wasn't a bug, or if it was, an extremely rare bug. Either way, it was really interesting to see those new ships pop up.

But why would we be able to buy a skeleton ship? For a certain quest, or what? I wouldn't be sure, but I hope we see them again, sometime.

As for fishing, there's another bug where once you're at level 20, if you level up again you crash.

I guess this is a let the cat out the bag thing? It could be disney trying to say they will be out soon.

Sigh.... I spent all dayat Darkhart trying to get gold for nothing? I really hope the ships come back on test, then to live soon. And really they were THE Warlord, THE Phantom, etc. I thought they were new classes just with those names as a coincidence.

I just caught Speedy Lou, one of the Legendary fish.

Here are some shots. But first, to get the fish, first you'll need to click extremely fast, and there will be a rod GUI, so the faster you click, the closer you get to green, and once you get to green, you need to move the mouse in a circle motion to "reel it in".

It took a while, and I was afraid he was gonna get away, but I got him!

You also get to wave good bye to the fish, and see him swim out. It was too much of a happy ending. I wanted to fry him up and eat him.

***Sven Osymthe*** · #85 08-04-2010, 01:02 AM

Nice, right after I read this, I encountered Speedy Lou (for the second time - failed the first time). That brings me up to two...

edit: Just encountered Fogbell (the one that someone made look like an island before). It happened after Speedy Lou (much like it did the first time for me), and it escaped immediately at the clicking part. Since that happened twice, i'm assuming it's a bug.

edit2: I have level 21 fishing... they're gonna spend time fixing that soon I guess.

Speedway Master · #86 08-04-2010, 02:05 AM

I already caught Speedy Lou and Fire Dragon.

The key seems to be leaving the lure down at the ocean and stall as time passes by.

Raikel · #87 08-04-2010, 02:16 AM

A little bit fun, but it is definitely not anything that could keep me from canceling my subscription. I do advise this is just another click and tell game, still looking for more and would not advise paying to play it.

stpehen · #88 08-04-2010, 02:37 AM

it seems that whever a legendary fish is caught, you wave goodbye and take a scale, am i right?
i wouldn't know, don't have test access.

***Sven Osymthe*** · #89 08-04-2010, 02:43 AM

Yes, that's all that happens (other than the short story, rep, gold, and possible loot).
