    Tho those of you on the test...
    Click to display

    When does test end?
    And are they going to adjust things a bit before it does so things are a bit more balanced from breed to breed?
    Do western rides/ECs or Classical rides/ECs have an advantage in any way?
    Thanks

    I don't know the exact amount now, but I did do some test blups on preprod.

    Current rides, I can get a TB bolded with wins by 7 yrs and 4 months.
    "New Rides" it took me until 9 yrs and 2 months to bold the top three skills only, with enough comps for skills and wins.

    Both used the same "Quick Blup" schedule, same conditions, shower stall, mashes, etc. That's nearly 2 yrs longer with these new "rides" than with what we have currently. Rookie blups are going to be brutal. default smiley (d)

    Whaaat. That's insane. I really hope they adjust it, 10-12 ageings extra per horse?? No thanks. default smiley :( I mean if you just had one of the rides then that would make more sense honestly. Why can't they just make the locations of the centres not have an influence on the training, that all horses have the advantage of a quicker training on the 3 best skills and the slower training on the 3 non best skills or something? I mean the location also matters for the resources, what if you need one resource but you're BLUPing horses that tae advantage of another location in your center.. ?

    you most likely will need all resources anyway.

    but with the skills thing I would stay calm for now, since they appear to not yet be nailed down and the resources update can shake things up as well.

    for mountain rides
    Stamina
    Speed
    Trot

    For forest rides
    Jumping
    Galop
    Dressage

    if this is the case then the Standardbred, Curly, and Peruvian Paso breeds all have an advantage by picking mountain and the Holsteiner breed benefits from forest no other breed benefits from the placement of the EC in an extreme way.

    As of today, from the preprod site.

    Click to display
    Rides are based on where the Equestrian Center is located.

    Existing trot, gallop and cross-country rides are replaced with new types of rides:

    • forest rides
    • mountain rides

    Beach rides appear on the right of these two new types of rides rather than below them. When riding on the beach, you can now decide which skill you want to increase and decrease.
    However if you don’t make any specific selection, the default setting will add to the highest skill by removing from the lowest.

    Skills

    Forest rides add skill points to:

    • dressage
    • gallop
    • jumping


    Mountain rides add skill points to:

    • stamina
    • speed
    • trot


    Energy used

    Long and short rides no longer exist. Both types of rides (forest and mountain) require the same amount of energy.

    • The tutorial tip about short and long rides is removed.

    The rides now require a few more hours to be complete, but eat up less energy for each hour worth of ride.


    On my tester horses, for blupping purposes, it took a full 12 additional agings (2 yrs) to bold the horse's top three skills (that required speed rides before) with these new rides. And that's using the same conditions and same tricks I use to get max energy usage out of my horse's "day."

    so what is going to happen to TB with the rides change?
    Right now I only need to do short gallop rides and gallop comps, but it seems that will no longer be the case?
