I wasn't in playtest myself but watched a review video with Kpshamino where I heard this.

Not only is bite alarms not in realistic mode, but you can't see your reel and drag settings in realistic mode which seems very odd and also unplayable. One should not forget that a game is supposed to be fun too.

I fish irl a lot. I see my bobbers really well, I can also see my reel and adjust is as I wish. And my bells works very well.

In real life I have that, but I don't have skill points to add for fishing boosts :D
Just my thoughts.

Seriously ?.. I just spent 18,000 to get my rod pod setup to find out they don't work in realism ?.. It's not even a question as to whether or not bite alarms are realistic...

I got alarms before biggest reels so I could actually watch tv whilst waiting for bites rather than missing half of it., then over time rebuild the cash.
Also they say about cooking whilst waiting for bites. How ? With no alarm that is impossible. Just lies to up sales.

Quite simple for me now. Until they add alarms to realistic I am done, because this is BS.

Hello guys, we just discovered that bite alarms were indeed turned off in realistic mode, we are now preparing a patch with other things and we will add the bite alarms as well to it. For the rest of adjustments on realistic mode please be patient, we are aware of them and working everyday to make game better.

Whew!!
The lack of response on this thread lead me to believe that it was intentional.

Just wondering - is this about the missing sound to the "signalizer territory? We checked that it works :) Is it about the "graphic" that shows the moment of the bite?

Oh.. I can't see how to add them to the rod pod. In UFS1 it was done in your inventory.
Clicking on the alarms inside inventory does nothing.

I asked in chat, but as per usual, no one is saying a thing. When I found alarms not working in realism, I assumed I had to be in normal mode to be able to add them.

Found it. Working.
Had my first bug today though. When trying to pick up a rod, sometimes it picks up the wrong 1, and then the other rods can't be picked up anymore.

The alarm issue was just confusion and this is my first bug, so doing well so far.
