New features

Please tell me that the companions thing is just a not-so-funny April Fools joke...

Missed opportunity to call it a "Companion Cube".


But seriously, I'm not really sure who this new item is aimed at? Collectors tend to want to buy the companions they are missing instead of possibly getting ones they already have.

And personally if I'm adding a bonus to a horse I'd like to select that bonus instead of taking a chance on getting a bonus that might fight the horse/horses skillset.

Over all it feels like an out of place addition.

Does anyone know if we need to use contact us to report yesterday’s missing pass drops from divines, Qilin’s missing FW etc? Or will they automatically be credited to us?

good cat h! I just checked my BMI history and no wand here either! It's my own fault I forgot to use the Isis privledge, but not receiving what's due is low.

*catch*

Mercury and Charming Reds drops also missing.

Who received this month's Cascade?

(and I meant Cool Carrot not Red) This is what I get for logging in before coffee.

I see no notifications or credits for any of these: Qilin, Mercury, Carrot and no Cascade awarded since 3/1

Probably beginners who never started a collection before.

Otherwise, I agree that it is pretty useless. I guess you can put it on a horse that you would already sell if you didn't want the companion it gave, but otherwise...

I hope it's automatic, otherwise we're losing important BMIs here. I really hope they don't want us to provide proof that we logged in on the 31st, though!

I guess Howrse should never update on the 1st now.

I LOVE the change with the dragons...i feel like i can finally start working them again...yay!

We are FREE.

Thank you for the dragon update. We're FREEEEEEEE

The dragon animation wasn't even that long though...?

It was an accessibility problem.

I play without animation because I have issues with my eyesight. I cannot look at animations, or I risk my health.

If I play without animation, NOTHING needs to be animated. It's that simple.

That's just me, though. Everyone has their own motivations.


Also, the more dragons you have the longer it takes.

Accessibility updates are important to every game, so I agree with Nalu93. I don't really know what they look like (I don't have any Dragons yet, lol) but my eyes always hurt whenever I see extreme animations, so it's good that you can turn it off!

The Dragon update is amazing! Thank you so much!

Thank you for this dragon update! Dealing with the dragons was so tedious that I decided three of them weren't even worth it, and threw them in my random divine farm. Thanks to this update, I moved them back in with my dragons because getting through them is so much easier.

And with that, it'd be so nice to have a search feature for the different divine series. It would have been easier to find them in said farm of 150+ divines if I could have limited my search to dragon divines. I certainly didn't remember *which* dragons I had moved over there, just knew I had XD.

Thank you so much for the Dragon update!! It is great!

Oh I am so happy with the dragon update.

I will say, it's a pretty visual, but I fully agree it's an accessibility issue (and if you have more than one dragon, it gets REALLY annoying)

I've turned it off immediately, and even though I worked my dragons before using F5 to skip animation, this is SO MUCH FASTER.

Cheers for listening Howrse. This is great

Is it okay to request changes in a certain forum? Curious because I have a thought, but don't know where or if I can post it.

Being able to turn off the dragon animations.... BEST new feature since the VIP addition of our ability to cancel the board of horses boarded in our own EC

Thank you for finally listening to us about the dragons!! I'll finally work the rest of my dragons now that I don't need to bother refreshing every 4 seconds and maybe I'll even consider getting more of them in the future. I used to avoid them like the plague because I don't want to end up with a farm of useless divines and their animations made them exactly that because I refused to work them. It's going to take a few days to break my habit of skipping over them, but I'll continue to work on it if I remember (I work most divines in autopilot).

I'm curious to see the stats on how many players have already turned their animations off.

Now about that overdue trophy update where you follow through on doing something to give us back our pretty little icons for our pages-

I do love the dragon update. The animation may not have been that long if you have a single dragon, but it adds up when you have to click to fight several times a day on multiple dragons. I stopped working mine ages ago just because of this, nice to know that if I ever haul them out of retirement it'll be much quicker and easier!

So pleased to see the dragon update. They all got worked today, something that hasn’t happened since…..well since I got them probably. Good to finally put them to some use.

So very happy with the Dragon update. I think it is a win win situation for everyone.
I certainly will look into buying more and working them more. I gave up for quite a while as it was tedious and a bit boring . Thankyou Howrse
