Fishing achievements still broken ?

Reskal

I saw in the net that a patch from 22th of may should have fixed this problems.

http://teso.mmorpg-life.com/eso-patch-notes-v1-1-2/

but actually i fished a rare vvardenfell parma in bleakrock, and all happened was, that the window closed as i hit "R", no achievement, no fish in inventory.

    I wasted stacks and stacks of worms in Stros M'kai after that patch. It's still bugged.

    Yeah still broken. But given that there is zero point to fishing, there's not enough backlash for them to make it a priority for a fix I guess.
    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?

    True! But you made a friend :wink:

    Additionally, I've caught the rare fish a couple of time in Kenarthi's Roost and it's not registered to date either.

    Hopefully they will see to sort it out at some point.
    If you can be anything, be kind.

    Love fishing here, and trying to get a rare fish was a good reason to do. I think Zenimax is underestimating the importance of fishing for the overall-success of TESO :D

    After the patch that they said they had improved fishing - I think it was probably that May one - I eagerly took out my fishing bait and fished at Bleakrock Isle - after an hour I had caught nothing worthwhile and the icing on the cake was when I finally did get a rare - which then disappeared without trace - no rare - no achievement - no nothing.

    Sent in bug report and I haven't fished since which is a great shame as I was looking forward to fishing in ESO

    I really hope they do get the fishing sorted - first to work at least as intended and them to improve upon it so that the fish etc are actually useful and worth fishing for.

    I guess if you prefer to destroy all those baits you find along the way. I'd rather turn them into something I can vendor.

    There's also the Wet Gunny Sacks that have probably gotten me about 10 Kuta so far.

    But yeah, if you're expecting lots of action, weapons, armor, & a bunch of XP, don't go fishing.

    Well that explains why I wasted an entire stack of worms in Stros M'kai. Also explains why I sometimes wouldn't catch anything at all.

    @ZOS_GInaBruno I have had a thread here outlining all the current known issues with fishing reported by players since April 21st.
    Every patch we have posted and updated it with new information for the developers to look over and I have even tagged both Jessica and yourself in the thread to see if we could get some kind of response on the issues.

    I'm a little annoyed that a thread being updated and giving helpful information submitted by the community can be overlooked for so long and a simple one in GD can earn the attention within only a few days.

    I understand that fishing is not a high priority issues but many of these bugs have been here since beta with no official answers from ZOS in regards to the questions asked.

    Here are the questions most asked again in hopes they finally reach developer eyes/ears.

    Q: Why can't we actually loot rare fish? Was this a design choice, lack of time or from fears of botting abuse?

    Q: Will we ever be able to loot rare fish to sell or keep as trophies?

    Q: When will the next pass on fishing bugs be done? Note that many issues have been posted here (the thread linked above) to help towards that end.

    Q: Does ZOS have plans for fishing to be more than an achievement system in the future?

    Yes. I have also sent several bug reports on this matter and now you act like it's something totally new?

    Hey guys, we just double checked this issue this morning, and it does appear that this achievement is pretty broken. We'll get it fixed up soon!

    What about fixing the Craglorn progression blocking quest that is been bugged for over 2 weeks now @ZOS_GinaBruno ?

    I mean, I really appreciate you fixed all that bunch of sidequests like the untargetable plagued bears, but its been 15 days since people who want to progress in the Craglorn PVE content (last content you released, remember?) is blocked there.

    Sorry for the intromission in the post OP, but its infuriating how they ignore a post after throwing an empty "actively investigating" two weeks ago while you can see lots of CM responses to fishing and future dye achievements posts for content yet to come.

    I guess us pvers in Craglorn zone are bottom-priority.

    @Turelus I did. You can find it in the Customer Support section, post they have ignored even after being called to it after their first post aknowledging the issue.

    17 days and the quest is still bugged. They were very fast to throw an "actively investigating" when it was reported over two weeks ago, but it seems they have decided to ignore the thread where many people has reported the same bug.

    Progression blocking quest bugged for 17 days, and they spend their time fixing sidequests and answering fishing and dye threads.

    Hey guys, we just double checked this issue this morning, and it does appear that this achievement is pretty broken. We'll get it fixed up soon!

    Confirming that this is still broken to hell and back. Caught the fish three different times, tried collecting them three different ways. All in Kernathi's Roost:

    1: Press R to collect all; nothing
    2: Press E to collect singular fish; nothing
    3: Doubleclick the fu-... falmering thing; nothing

    I am just a poor Khajiit; I need my fish. Please.

    ...or this one will scratch up Zenimax's couches in the Lobby!
    Very serious threat!
    Yes.

    Just because they aren't answering every post in every single thread about everyone complaining about the same thing not working does not mean they aren't actively working on fixing it.

    Yup. All the rare fish are loot able and sellable. All the green fish I've caught sell for 0 gold though and it has become impossible to get new guts from animals so fishing is still broken in a number of ways.

    Really? Blast! I haven't caught any greens since the patch, and I haven't tried to get any guts. I guess there's now no point to my happy romps through the woods slaughtering squirrels.

    I need to revise my statement >< I've only caught a Pyandonean Ray and an Inner Sea Scalyfin so far. Both of them really fast, as usual, within the first 4 or so fishing holes. The Stros M'Kai achievement appears to be bugged as seveal people have stated above ><
