Our developers have something to tell you! Every three (3) weeks, our devs will provide you with information about their work in the “Dev’s Corner.”

This publication is a way of keeping everyone updated on what’s happening with the game. We invite you to discuss and leave your feedback for each of the publications.

Note: All posts must adhere to the forum guidelines and be constructively made.

Take a look at our very first Devs' Corner publication!

Warm wishes,

    Oh my goodness and I've just seen what player pages look like now... I'm actually laughing this is so bad. This change beats any other one Howrse has made in the past few years. Truly blew them all out of the water in terms of awfulness.
    PLEASE please please change it back to how it was before default smiley (n)

    i'm glad i'm not a major collector. the thing i did collect for the trophy was the droppings. the old max was 45000. it took me a long time to get to 45000. I have been keeping it between 45000 and 46200. I need 1200 for manure. Every time i get over 46200 i would make manure. i only sell it when i have an obj to sell. Right now have just under 46000. its only level 9 (silver) learned to get to level 12 i nedd 500000. that's insane and it's just gold. who knows what you need for diamond.

  • This new trophy page is, what we call here in the UK, pants! I took great pride in 'chasing down' trophies so I could collect them and have them displayed. Getting all the coats of all the horses was my number one goal and now you've made it even more difficult. For this task alone, people are going to have to write/type all the breeds with all the coats underneath, check off what they have and then figure out from there what they need. This has made the game inifinitely awful!#

    I play on 5 servers and am seriously thinking of giving up. Please change it back to how it was, or at least have an easier page to where we can see what trophies we needed!

    I’m honestly really confused. This looks like a mess. And I have random percentages on so many trophies that I KNOW aren’t right, Or they aren’t explaining the percentages. I’ve put at least unique 25 GA’s on horses just in the last 30 days alone. It was literally all in one day, coat release day, and I HAVEN'T used a GA since. The trophy Shows I’m at 80% of completing for 15 coats. Literally impossible. I used 25 GAs in one day. None since. How in the world are the calculating these percentages? There’s literally no explanation

  • default smiley (n)default smiley (n) I Hate it. It makes my player page look terrible now! I used to be proud of the trophies I would be able to display on my page but now "Oh look at these little badges that you have no idea what they relate to! Aren't they wonderful?" /s

    It used to be easy to search for what I wanted to work on with my trophies and now like other people I care even less about this game. It was already starting to feel like an actual job and congrats you made it into more of one. default smiley :k default smiley :(

    Maybe in the future Howrse should test these things out before leaving players no choice with how the future system will be.

    Lol... they did... we warned them this would end badly...

    They did make a few changes (it was originally much much worse) but overall they just ignored player feedback and went ahead with it anyway...

    I'm a bit sad to see the trophies for the coats per breed are gone or i cant seem to find them as thats what i have been working towards for a while. Same with collections coats... Now i cant find what i have all in one place. Unless I;m just missing something?


    Did anyone answer this. I cant see it so:

    Collections - top right - classic coats - see. Shows all the coats for each breed with breeds and numbers listed on the left.

    Hey! Remember when we all told you on Pre-Prod that this was a gigantic fail and we all hated it?

    No?

    Didn't listen to us there, both times?

    Clearly.

    This is as much if not worse of an Epic Fail as we told you then. Not only have you charged ahead in ruining your customers' investment in and enjoyment of this game, because clearly you don't understand a blessed thing about Brand Trust, you've given us pages that look like they're for a kindergarten game. You've destroyed long-time loyal customers' progress (I see a LOT of things missing in these trophies and so-called "collections"!), and made an overly-large, needlessly loud-colored disaster that cannot be seen and assessed at a glance.

    You are absolutely to be Congratulated -- you've made a whole section of this game unreadable and utterly inefficient!

    I have a suggestion to help with your gleeful, unabandoned, open-armed race toward inefficiency: Stop holding Pre-Prods. In, what? Eight or ten years of them? In that time you've listened to player critique and changed your course exactly Twice that I recall (and I was shocked, both times). Seriously, just don't hold them anymore. You'll save yourself time and wages, and you won't even miss customer feedback that you never listen to anyway.

    Oh... If you wanted to give me 100 prizes for this mess, then you should have done so and messaged me a list -- this nonsense of I should have to spend loads of time clicking a button 100 times to get these items is just... Well, as poorly-considered as the rest of this debacle.

    Clearly, no one likes this. No one is happy having their work and progress destroyed. No one is happy having to look in 10 places for what could once be found all in one place. Just as clearly, you don't care and don't listen to customer feedback.

    The devs are speed running this game into the ground quicker than Elon with Twitter default smiley xd

    Safe to say I won't be spending anything further on my main server as long as these new changes stay up!
