Hello,

On this topic, you may discuss what isn’t in the game yet.

You can share spoilers concerning new features that will come to the game in the future.

For example, players participating in the test server can use this topic to share their findings.

Please remember to use the spoiler feature when sharing new information with everyone.

To make the Spoiler Banner, you can:

↪ Use these tags: [spoiler*] the text you want to hide [/*spoiler]
Make sure that you remove the asterisks (*) before posting.

↪ You can also click on the "eye" button on the message formatting options available.

You can post screenshots as long as you also use the spoiler banner to cover them.

Warning: We do not guarantee that any of the info that is posted in here is true or accurate. Nor that the features will be launched on the game.

Please remain polite with one another; no one has the right to spoil or claim ownership of the rumors and spoilers related to the game.

Thank you for your collaboration and understanding.

Kind regards,
Ow

I think that would be helpful... sort of like how they have the tutorial on posting images and links. I remember they had a topic on it when the feature was first introduced.
More than half the things I've responded to in here have be queries about how to post spoilers, what a spoiler is, or if the spoiler's been done right.
And more than half the spoilers I've opened have been pointless and unrelated to the topic at hand.

And if they're changing this...

How is skill gain going to be the same?

And some people should understand that those "some people" are just saying that this forum has already become abused with spam such as:
- people posting what howrse has already announced in the blog and in the events fourm, ie not spoilers
- chit chat
- things not related to howrse
- over abuse of the spoiler tags

So far there are 19 pages to this thread and most of the actual spoilers were posted on page 1 and may have been repeated once or twice. This thread is a pain to read and I can only imagine the extra work it takes for the mods to moderate it. Time that is probably better suited to moderating the rest of the site.

It's a nice idea, but poorly implemented and not well respected by the users.

Skilled was never gained that way -- merely moved around. I'm hunting back through this forum to see where this was mentioned so I can hopefully give a better answer default smiley ;)

Oh no, that I know... I understand it's a transfer and not an actual gain. But I know that a lot of players (myself included) use them to increase skills beyond their natural limits.

They are changing that?

Yep, because of the new ECs, are we going to have to rewrite all our BLUPing schedules that we put hard work into?

Exactly- I would love a thread that actually stays on target! To be able to come in and not have to sort and muddle through 19 pages of irrelevant posts would be wonderful . Last night it looked like the mods were going to actively uphold some form of unity to keep the thread clean it looks like there has been no moderating of the thread today...

I disagree with everyone who says the forum should be taken down. It is merely a new forum, everyone is excited, and once the newness wears off, everyone will follow the rules! I love this forum! default smiley (l)

I don't think anyone is saying it's a bad idea, but it's be abused. Spoilers are being used to say stuff like "cool" and "testing" etc. And it's a kind of annoying for palyers to open all these spoilers to see nothing but stuff they can post without the spoiler

Yes I agree, but taking the forum down is a bit extreme in my opinion. default smiley (l)

This topic would be so much better if there wasn't 19 pages of chat, fake spoilers etc to get through. Can't the Administration team do a clean up of this topic, leaving only the real spoilers?

My apologies, Uggy. It won't happen again. (From me, at least. I have no control over others.)

Diversification of the tacks

Then we will bring even more realism by introducing new types of tacks: the saddle cloth, the bonnet and the leg wraps. This will provide more diversity on the game.
Each of these new tack items will exist in several colors and patterns. So you will have a lot of possibilities to customize your horses and get very unique ones!

The saddle cloth will become compulsory in order to enter competitions, in addition to the saddle and the bridle. Yet the bonnet and the leg wraps will be optional that way you don’t have to buy too many items of tacks for every single horse.
And you won’t have to give them horseshoes any more. Indeed horseshoes can’t be customized much to the contrary of the other tack items. So they don’t really need to be displayed on horses. Thus, we have decided they will only remain as a bonus offered by the farrier of an equestrian center, making the farrier more interesting at the same time. Be sure that you won’t lose anything: you will receive a compensation for the horseshoes you and your horses have.

Like the already available tack items, the new ones will also give a skill bonus to the horses that wear them. And we are considering correcting the skill bonus of the existing tacks in order to offer the same bonus in all 6 skills. That way, there won’t be a competition which will be favored more than the others.
Even better, if your horses wear a saddle cloth, a bonnet and leg wraps which have a common color, then they will get an additional skill bonus. Try to find the best associations to both get the highest bonuses and have the best-looking horses!

The tacks displayed on your horses
The cherry on the cake is that all the tacks of your horses will be displayed directly on your horses’ picture, as during the horse parade contest last summer if you remember.
Imagine realistic horses, wearing customizable tacks and evolving in a wide beautiful landscape! You will almost have the feeling they are alive.
Don’t just imagine, watch.
