i still don't understand how this new change will make it easy why change something that wasn't broken

I agree I wish they would of had a poll for this worthless changes to ec and rides

These changes, like those of the past few months, are being done gradually to facilitate a complete overhaul of the ECs. There are lots of curious and potentially fun additions coming to that side of the game over the coming months, and it may take until the entire thing has been rolled out before the benefits of each individual part become clear

Regarding the mew missions (formally lessons)

Probably, but that is not happening anyway until at least February. Lessons are still lessons until then

Horse Fan - For starters 3 rides instead of 7 does make things easier. I remember when I started I didn't realize that to get speed skills I had to do rides of 1 hour or less... Judging by the Game Play forums I don't think I was the only noob to have trouble with that either.

But having said that, I don't think changing the rides was done for the purpose of fixing or simplifying anything. If Ow's posts on preprod are anything to go by it seems the changes are intended to bring more balance to the breeds - to make things more fair.

Compare blupping a Curly to a Tennessee Walker as the rides are now:

- TWs only have to do 50hrs of rides using 810% energy in total (and 25 competitions) to get their skills.
- A Curly has to do 100hrs of rides using 2340% energy in total (and 50 competitions)...

Thank you. Was sort of hoping we were starting now so we could have a bit of a stockpile for upgrading boxes when that feature comes in.

When will the Christmas promo start is there one?

There is one, and it will probably start in the next few days

Does anyone know what the promo after The Christmas one is?

Ow would know, but she is resistant to all forms of persuasion

Zig - even cookies? Freshly baked? Bother... alright, Monkey can have them instead.

Neither cookies, nor puppies, nor kittens, nor chocolate, nor any other treats or bribes that we have tried over the years. Ow is specially trained to resist them all

Oh, well. Here you go Monkey. *hands Monkey a basket of cookies* Share some with Zig, will you please?

Doh! - this is on the home page.

Tomorrow morning we will be installing the latest EC features. There may be a maintenance period of an hour or so when the update starts.

so tommow does that mean later today or tommrow?

As it was only posted in the past 45 minutes, tomorrow will mean tomorrow, and not today

ok thanks......

will our hay,apples and carrots stay apart from our ec stock?

All content from the breeder and EC accounts should be merging.

Okay so my timezone is GMT +8 so right now it is 6:50pm so about when will the update start in my time? Thanks, I just really want to know becuase I have school and right now I am confused haha

An I can't wait for the EC change!! I'll be starting to make a ton of Christmas cookies so making my way around the new changes will give me something to keep me occupied while the cookies bake :-)

I take it nothing happened during the night?

If you want your dessert horses in sand, try the beach.


Lusitonias are not dessert horses, at least I really do not consider Portugal a dessert and that is where the are from.

Ok, I just saw a news blip that tomorrow morning it will launch.....

Would that be this morning, Dec 2? Or tomorrow morning?

It can be confusing I am waking to start the 2, while others are getting comfy to great the 3rd.

So, the up coming changes are the merging of the reserves and inventories?
