New features

Okay. Thank you! Will do so.

So, yesterday was the first time I found questions on my new Archimedes, however, for the first time ever there were no questions for my old Archie. Of course, I've already been sending tickets to Contact trying to figure out what's wrong and had also yesterday asked if I can only see questions for one of my Archie's per day.

This morning they said, "Yes indeed you can only see questions for one Archie a day." This morning I was able to answer questions for both my Archimedes.

Will I be able to see questions on both my Archimedes tomorrow or not? Well, I guess time will time tell.

To Be or Not To Be.........

Thankyou Ow!

The rule has always been that you can only answer one question a day from any Archimedes. Sounds like a glitch if you were able to answer two today.

Yes, it allowed me again to answer both but I only received 1 AP.

Can we get a feature that brings Onyxs ufo back like the way the Japanese divines omikujis pop up after you click off a page? It's the second time that I clicked off his page just as the pass ufo popped up..

Hello:

Ref: Fairy Tale Divine issues

I would like to report since I have been on pre-pod this last time, the graphics
for my Fairy Tale divines have disappeared with all of the competition icons on
the live version making it difficult to work my divines.

Yesterday it no longer showed the classic competition icons or indicated when
all of the Grand Prix spots were filled. Today the western icons along with the
western Grand Prix icons have disappeared. This did not happen until I went
on prepod. Is there a connection between pre-pod testing and the live version
game?

It also does not show the book's story characters. It only shows a puff of white
smoke.

what new objectives are you guys getting?
I got play 20 hours with a foal today.
i also see people are getting "add a special companion". please note that means DIVINE companion.

I put Shika on a horse but the objective is not completed. so.. help?

I got 30 hrs Mountain rides and cover a female uni donkey. I exchanged the second one and am stuck now

So far, the new one I see is 40 hours of forest rides

Some of the new ones are

Complete 30/40 missions
Ride in the forest for 30/40 hours
ride 40 hours in the mountains
Win a competition using a special horse
Find a corncob while training a horse
Find a comb or hoofpick when doing a mission
feed a draft unicorn
Cover a female donkey unicorn
start a crop in meadow/greenhouse,
trigger the Falabella bonus.
reach 13 years on a horse
nurse a foal
ride on a beach for 30/40 hours.

I believe thaere are more but these are the ones found on preprod.

Honestly, I find the nonsense covering objectives that already exist to be nothing but a nuisance. I never complete them in the first place, and I have unicorns, donkeys and drafts in my farm. I'm not interested in wasting my drafts' and donkeys' covers for a stupid objective for as little as 20p and it's not like I can just casually blup them in one day considering their uselessly low skills. And that's ignoring my time constraints.

The fact that you added more of these nonesense objectives is ludicrous. Please get rid of them.

Or at least make it possible to filter competitions to only show competitions available for donkeycorns and only donkeycorns or drafticorns and only drafticorns. These horses are nothing but fillers to everyone else, and that makes them nearly impossible to blup. Especially when all the competitions for their specific breeds disappear quickly or the comps are just dominated by one high skilled one and there's nothing else available. And why not add Ows competitions for these breeds? I've stopped bothering with blupping my donkeycorns and drafticorns because there's never competitions that they can win available in the first place and I'm not interested in someone else stomping them in the comps available to everyone. If you're going to try and force us into completing these nonesense objectives, then give us the means to blup our donkeycorns/drafticorns in one day. Otherwise, get rid of the irritating objectives and replace them with something reasonable that we can complete without wasting a part of our horses' lives. These ones are outright unreasonable.

Or maybe I should say something as rediculous as these objectives: if you're going to try and force us into breeding these special horses then automatically credit our accounts with 2 Athena's Medals (and a Hestia's in the case of unicorns). That way, we a guaranteed to be able to get our horses done the same day to complete the objective without wasting a part of our horses' lives.

These objectives are rediculous. Please stop adding these pains to the game. NOBODY wanted them in the first place, plus we've already been complaining about the ones that are there. Undo this update. The give birth to a unicorn one can go too.. and that's coming from a unicorn breeder.

Most of these new objectives should give more than a measly 10/20 passes, they are a lot of work and/or a high price to pay for a very small payout.

Also, just saying, if we are going to have to set off a crop, please allow us to get a part harvest from cancelling an ongoing production. Having to cancel even one field of cows could cost us over 150000 equus in profit if it is a large one with a trough - not fair or worth it

Cover a female donkey unicorn is one??? Those are pretty expensive, and if I’m getting a 10 or 20 pass return whats the point

Also the ride ones are horrible. I’m not using that many APs to do a measly objective. Should’ve stuck with the old objectives, they were fine

I got give 10 apples to horses owned by other players

Not sure if its new but I’ve never had it before

I just got "complete 40 missions." That's a lot of time and APs (I'm not heavily invested in the game, more of a casual player) for just a few passes.

I think Howrse realized that players were less likely to buy passes if they could get a bunch from doing objectives every day, so they decided to make the objectives a lot harder so people can't/won't do nearly as many and will have to purchase passes.

It's not like there weren't already objectives that were extrememly difficult/impossible for a lot of players, especially newer ones.

Perhaps they should only require 1 objective completed per day to keep the Horn meter going, as I can see many not being able to do loads of these objectives. This was meant to replace the pass horses, which was a possible 3000 passes a month if you went for all of them, so now we probably aren't even going to get the full 840-930 passes a month the replacement was supposed to offer. If anything, these would have been a great way to introduce a bonus objective each day for 30 passes, which isn't needed to keep the Horn meter going, just extra passes for completing a hard objective.

Definitely. Someone in Game Play got trigger a Fallabella bonus....What if you don't have a fallabella? Groom a divine horse was hard enough for most players, let alone needing a specific one. I don't have a fallabella because they don't appeal to me, why force people to try and attain divines they don't want for the sake of an objective? Howrse shouldn't give objectives like that to people who A. Don't have the divine and B. Don't have the passes to get said divine :/

I've just looked over on UK and shuddered a bit, my current cows require 23 days, all of them, so fingers crossed I don't get that objective and have to choose between cancelling and keeping. Like, it wouldn't be as bad over here, I can do almost any objective, but UK and AU are servers where I don't have access to a large chunk of resources and these are my only real pass earners.

I personally feel that not much consideration was put into some of these objectives, I literally have tons of resources to burn, over 150 unique divines, rosette winners, tons of unicorns, yet I feel that even with all of this I am going to struggle, never mind someone that doesn't even have close to what my account has.

Yeah, pass horses were expensive if you just bought them ready to send each month, but at least you got the passes and didn't need to have so many aspects covered to get them.

I don't really understand this "the number of objectives available for each player has increased"? Does this mean we are supposed to have another objective? Or is it meaning that there are just more "new" ones? I did my two but don't see that I have any more.

The objectives in the pool have been increased. We still only get the 2 per day.

I'd still love it if all of our objectives were available to us from the first of the month, and even if we had to complete them in order, and had a limited number of exchanges to skip some, we could complete them at will throughout the month. If it's possible for someone to do them all in one day, then they could do so.

If we can't have our previous 1000 passes per month, greater flexibility in when we get them during the month would be amazing.

Thanks Legacy Ann, that's what I thought but the wording threw me off.

I also, agree with your idea, "I'd still love it if all of our objectives were available to us from the first of the month, and even if we had to complete them in order, and had a limited number of exchanges to skip some, we could complete them at will throughout the month. If it's possible for someone to do them all in one day, then they could do so." Great Idea
