yep

can't wait to see the mass exodus

Oh yes the mini games, I never tried them on iPad or my phone, but on my stationary PC with a mouse there is good enough for me to shoot a monster between the eyes from several kilometres away with a sniper rifle.
I can't braid a horses tail or clean it's hooves fast enough.

It usually takes me 4 to 5 tries before I get that passed, it was quicker to use the Wheat bran trick to bring down the price of the pass.

I've looked about through pages, but still a little unclear..



If anyone can answer, or post a link to a clear post which sums everything up, that would be greatly appreciated.

Umm, I have. It's just as hard, and the iPad or phone, whichever device you use, will freeze up, and things just go down hill. It's easier to click on things, but harder to get a pass because my devices just freeze up.

Picking apart words does not change the argument made... Call it change, revision, or removal. What is happening is the same. The changes are the same, and

Howrse if you even care, you will see your decision to do this is complete horse turd.


You still have time to redeem yourselves to us very loyal customers and NOT enact this change on your biggest server.

This is exactly what I am seeing being posted. Experienced players had put forth the argument that newer players feel they should just be given the next shiny or win promos, just because and this is the very thinking I see now from the experienced players about themselves.

I learned in my lifetime that the silver spoon is not a right but a privilege and even working our rears off will not guarantee us that privilege or any part of it.

Or simpler yet- feed, groom, bed.

For anyone needing info here is this great post!

I remember at first when the loyal player's pass meter came out I thought it would be easier than buying a million equus worth of fodder, but it's actually worse! Doing that once every 3 days (unless the randomness of the meter gives you less points a day) is going to drive players mad!



Yeah, I just throw the mission in there to cover the boarding cost, and it's quicker than entering comps.

Thank you so much, GrimmjowxIchigo and GH39.. seems like there are a mix of good and bad in there.

This made me laugh so hard. Priceless

Zilakla : that is the quote of 2016 howrse gaming I swear It is hillarious
This proves we are HARDCORE players people! HArdcore!

And now I am laughing too, thanks for the laughter

Do you log in absolutely every day? You can do the 10 pass current system from just taking care of the horses you are aging up, and don't have to be on more than that (no need to rotate meadows, do comps, BLUP, use forums, buy or sell horses). You also don't lose anything by missing a day or two each week. That's a big part of why I choose Howrse over other games. I'll do the other things when I want to, and skip them when I need to, no stress.

The new system would ruin that. If you don't do everything, or miss a day or two per week, you lose over a dozen passes a year.

If you were someone ambitious who raised enough pass horses for thirty passes a month, you lose over two hundred passes per year(OUCH!) with the change. And your pass farm likely has fifty or more horses at every 5-year interval from 0 to 30, (300+ horses) with a total value over 22 million equus invested in horses that you've cared for daily. It takes SIX MONTHS of daily care to raise a pass horse.

Me? I'm not that person. But I have been building up my pass farm since early summer, and invested almost every spare bit of equus I get into buying horses 10+ years old to raise for passes. And if the change happens, I have 65 horses on my game that become junk. I dabble in blupping and comp horses, but the focus of my game is raising passes to buy luck items and the latest so-called Shiny Sparklehorse. Logging in to care for them is the lure that brings me in to an hour or more of gameplay. I don't care about a "most dead horses" ranking, or a divine that gives me a HOP, shelled walnut, or some similarly pre-defined 'gift' per old horse in mockery of six months of loyalty. I'm so tied in by my pass horses, I've stayed years with the same site- started in 2010, made it over 700 seniority before life got too busy and changes made playing too strange, now I'm here again on my way past 400 days. Now they're looking to cut that tie.

Fix up the EC boarder register, or the competition results page. Make them searchable and neater, and able to show the past few days instead of the past 25 happenings. Let EC owners have an option to sort boxes by skill of the boarder. There are other improvements that could be done, if Ubisoft wants progress for progress sake.

For anyone who's interested, here are some links about Owlient, Howrse, and Ubisoft. Oh look, we've made money for them regularly since they bought Owlient. Ubisoft Financial Reports and random Howrse info. Leave us in peace and we'll keep doing it.

You are quoting me wrong. I was saying that to your response Spyder.

You said and I quote

And that is why I said and I quote my message to you again;

"This is a quote for a lot of players like yourself who support this new change:

Julius:"Why should I give a hoot about you, huh? Or anyone else out there? nah what I'm gonna do is look out for myself and I'ma get mine."

Not thinking about the whole community and what this is going to do to our game economy and how it is going to affect other people. Nope just thinking about ourselves and how we are just too lazy to take care of pass horses because we want passes and want them now."





(Had to quote the message in two parts)

Exactly. I agree.

Yes taking on a legendary Deathclaw in Fallout 4 is easier than braiding a horse tail on Howrse

And the Deathclaw have had great success in killing me in fallout.

Which is actually kinda creepy when you think about it and phrase it that way...I totally agree though, it is a pointless ranking.

That was not directed at any specific player but what I see more as a general observation.

I tend to see things in a different light and the expression of give me lemons and I will make lemonade comes to mind. All my life when a boulder is put in the road ahead of me I will find a way around it and not wait for someone else to move it for me..

I agree with that, and I'll still move forward and find my way around this boulder, but this pass change is still not good news.

Part of the fun is devising ways. Even if you can chip a piece off..

I think it is a trait of Libras.

My birthday is today and I even got a 5th element so now to figure out what to do with it.

Happy Birthday Spyder
We need some cheery news in this dungeon of despair...

Happy birthday
