[UPDATED] Devs' Corner: May 2024

Our developers have something to tell you! Every three (3) weeks, our devs will provide you with information about their work in the “Dev’s Corner.”

This publication is a way of keeping everyone updated on what’s happening with the game. We invite you to discuss and leave your feedback for each of the publications.

Note: All posts must adhere to the forum guidelines and be constructively made.

Take a look at our very first Devs' Corner publication!

Warm wishes,

The Howrse Team

Ever since the update, my Blob BOM coats aren't showing up when I look at horses on the breeding farm page. When I actually look at them on their page I can see it, though. Has this happened for anyone else?

Howrse, PLEASE fix the lag. This is the only page that if I don't change the https to http, will lag so slow that I get an error(think that's what it's called) message saying that the server isn't responding. And I know I'm not the only one!

Sorry if this has already been addressed. For the Reindeer ranking, is the ranking by top Reindeer of the month or top breeder who has Reindeer (cumulative)? the wording is confusing to me.


What time of day do the updates take place? I'm not sure I understand how this is a level playing field unless it updates at game update and that does not appear to be the case as I see a different top 3/5 etc at various times throughout the day.

Is the lag picking up for anyone else? The only time I had problems was during the update and the day after, when I couldn't log on for most of the day. Now the game is chugging to get anything done. I know it isn't on my end since everything else runs as normal, and my internet company isn't showing any problems. So much for a productive weekend, I can barely get horses taken care of...

The lag has been a bit better for me, and I don't have the best wifi in general, so hopefully it gets better for you too!

I got a mash from the star. You bet I'm disappointed right now.
Who thought it'd be a cute idea to add store items?

There were always store items. I've got carrots in the past.

Previous times I've got up to three things, usually one good one. They said the probability of them appearing has been increased, so hopefully everyone will get something good as long as they log on a few times today.

I got a single mash from the stars as well. Looks like they're pretty common as expected, pretty disappointing though considering they really aren't comparable to the other prizes.

5 Aging points and 10k equus so far.

Hope I can pick up a BMI, not to sound ungrateful (as I’m not) but those two things I’ve received are easily accessible to me. I can get / make it easily so it isn’t a very exciting prize.

Congratulations to those getting really good BMI’s default smiley (l)

Well I wasn't too happy about getting a VA but hearing about mashes is really making me grateful for it! I love the new design on the stars too default smiley :) I'll be on a bunch today, hoping to get a couple more and I'm aiming for a Nyx Pack to go with a T. Scales I got yesterday, as I don't have a divine that drops Nyx Packs so I have to trade for them...
