If you were offline (or Plus+ was) at the time you caught your big swordfish or if you hadn't signed up to or logged into Plus+ at that point then it wouldn't be recorded to the Plus+ leaderboard. We're considering the option of letting players 'upload' their current scores to Plus+ though as a lot of them will have caught fish before Plus+ was added to the game. We're just making sure there aren't any exploits with this (and we'll probably do a bit of a tidy up of the leaderboards at the same time if we do as glitches in previous versions of the game gave a few people silly fish weights).
There are 12 known named fish so far, one of which is only available at the Private Beach.
hi Aaron,is it bazzacuda? because i have caught him and hes on my plus+ account.and there are no spaces left to fill on my photo album. i caught him the same time i caught the hoff during a fish race with old man and the hoff is on there.my flick fishing points in awards on plus+ is 1480/1480 level 17 experienced but it does say 230/250.is the missing 20pts another fish i havnt caught?? or is that down to my swordfish as discussed before not being on plus+.im crammysteve25 on plus+ if you would like to see my records for further advice.all my fish ive caught and in my album and on my plus+ account are as follows
catfish,roach,rainbow trout,largemouth bass,pike,carp,dogfish,seabass,mullet,flounder,plaice,red snapper,sailfish,blue marlin,yellow tuna,bonito,swordfish:old mog,fat bob,gums,big red,hank marlin,smiling inigo,carpo marx,brown trout,bream,wahoo,tiddles,wiggler,grouper,striped bass,barracuda,bazzacuda,george,hoff,mahi mahi .im really sorry to be a nuisance ha
great game by the way cheers
The awards can be scored separately from the leaderboards, but theoretically if you're online at the time you catch a fish it'll score to both at the same time.
That's definitely 12 named fish you've got listed there, so it sounds like it didn't record one of them when you caught it (that would account for the missing 20pts too as the named fish are invisible awards). Fortunately you can actually catch them more than once now (and they get bigger each time, which is why we added the new leaderboards for them).
In theory one of the named fish you've caught won't be showing up as an award, so that would be the one to try and catch again.
great idea idea to upload current scores to plus+ because i like to play it at work on my dinner break where i cant go online all the time.is that planned for the near future? cheers
It's something I'm looking into but it probably won't be in the next update as I'm just putting the finishing touches to that. Mostly we've got to analyse the issues around adding that feature (ie can anyone exploit it, will it 'break' the game for anyone or be seen as unfair because a lot of people were playing prior to Plus+ and had exploits that gave them bigger fish etc.) but if we can resolve all that I think it's something I'd like to add in.
hi aaron,just checked my awards and there all there with a green tick next to them with points saying 1480/1480,
they all have a picture next to them of the fish exept for carpo marx which has the picture of the flick fishing fish logo biting a hook and not a carp picture??is that correct but it still does have a green tick next to it saying ive caught it
cheers
There must be a way to upload you catches before Plus+ PLEEEEEEEEEEAASE.. I don't get it.. how does plus know I am level 18, how does it know I have caught all named fish.. how does know I have caught over 5000 fish.. yet none of my big ones are on the leaderboards?? What a total 100% let down.. Guess I will remove plus until fixed as there is no reason to have it if you cannot show off your catches :(( Really hope you get this fixed and soon !!! Please Aaron it is a must!!
might be hijacking this thread a little but... though I'm logged in with Plus+ atm and have been over the last week and more... nothing I catch seems to be updated there. Anyone else notice this? Don't particularly care when this happens with Named Fish as there's always another around the corner, but do like to have my best fish on Plus+ and not just in my Photo Album. Have recently recorded personal bests for Swordfish, Red Snapper, Largemouth Bass and Rainbow Trout but only LMB got uploaded. I check this morning and the named fish i landed last night didn't get updated either, nor did the total number of fish caught. Is this just me?
I tried FFHD on the iPad, caught some catfish quickly, check Plus+ for total fish caught, but it's not advancing there either. Is Plus+ in total meltdown?
I found that 71325 works on iPad to bring Plus+ weights down, but can't make 52317 work on iPhone to send weights up, sadly.
Graeme, Plus+ seemed to be down the past few days, but I think it is up again. I caught a record Bazzacuda the other night and it is registered on Plus+. Look for SharkNose (that's me) at position 20.
