So, after reading back quite a few pages, I am still not sure what I should bulk up on before the change. Can the people actually testing give me some idea? Should I make sure I have lots of flax? fodder? showers? Things like that. I was left flat footed last time, having just done a major sell off of stuff. lol Thank you.


Basically have lots of everything and then decide what you can and cannot sell after the features launch.

Doh! The draft horses answer ended up at the bottom of the page, so here it is again default smiley :p

...as posted many times, are not coming until May. There will be 2 different breeds and only Ow knows what they are. There are no pictures yet. They will be just like any other breed with the exception that they gain more skills and resources than other breeds do, and they can only breed 3 times in their whole life. No doubt the elite teams will zoom them to the top of the GP board quickly.

My viewpoints on the new features below.
Click to display
I think its nice that Owlient/UbiSoft gives this game a change or it would soon get boring for those who have been playing for years and come across the same things over and over again. The production cycle makes it more time consumable to make things however this is meant to be a 'simulation game' so the production of items reflects the realistic part of the game that nothing can be made in a few seconds. Also, the productions cycle enables players to craft things depending on the amount of resources they have instead of having to spend equus on them. Horse has gone a bit over the boarder with the production time of some items such as mashes but that can still be changes as the update is not live yet. Consider howrse as lucky as there are very few websites that release updates so often.

Agreed.
As been said a 1000 times, NO drafts this update, NO more info than has been posted. We can worry about drafts closer to May.

I am just stocking up on manure, because I don't want to craft it, one less thing to worry about while learning all this over again.

Always good to stock up on the crops, and there are new uses for

Flax and straw, so don't get all gun ho and sell all of these items.

so how are these changes affecting:

1) Drinking Trough vs. The Fountain (Prix bonus) energy

are they removing or replacing the Prix bonus?

is this something that we have to craft for all our top boxes? is there anything we can have in inventory that will be exchanged for troughs? or will all EC's start out with zero and have to craft them all? given the time required to craft one in the workshop this is a daunting thought

2) Removal of the Box / Meadow & Changing Lessons to Missions

what are they doing to compensate for the Divine Gems that use those actions to earn a diamond?

3) Tractors

will all meadows currently possessing ScareCrows be compensated with a Tractor when the changes take place?

i'm sure i'll have questions that were not even remotely answered when i was on the prepod...

1) i think they are keeping the prix bonus but in not sure.
2). I'm not sure if they are going to compensate at all, they might do later somehow.
3) no idea but i assume yes

I have just one concern. I will be able to make an EC in 11 days, which means 9 days after the EC update. So will I have a full month during which I can change the location, or a month minus 9 days?

no, the date where you have to set your final location is the same for everyone, unfortunately (applies to me as well)
Retired breeder wrote:

I read that they're compatible.

Water usually gives +1 Morale and +2 Energy. The drinking Trough quadruples that, so if you have that for your horse it'll get +4 morale and +8 energy.

The Fountain triples the morale and energy.. So if you have the fountain you get +3 Morale and +6 energy. If I understood correctly the Drinking Trough quadruples that.

So you'll get +12 morale an +24 energy. That's.. insane o_O

The small workshop thing and resources to get me started is kind of getting me confused. What do they mean?

* sorry it was meant to say 'too'

Opal has a chance of giving a diamond when eating a carrot instead of being put in the box.
Quarz has a chance of giving a diamond when drinking water instead of being put in the meadow.
Longma has a 100% chance of your horses finding the grease when completing a mission instead of when put in the box.

The difference is that the trough gives its bonus all the time but only to the horse in the box. The Prix bonus is for all the winner's horses but only for 1 week.
