@Ruffian I don't think so. Checking my teams page, there is now an option in which teams can limit the maximum GP for offering covers. No mention if it's just for team covers or public covers as well. I'm going to assume it's more for public covers so a member doesn't accidentally offer above release GP covers to the public.
I no longer see public when breeding my mare
- I have a limit for covers, I can assure you I cannot choose public covers for my mare who has gp above the cover cap
- I wasn’t sure if it was both mare and stud which is why I was asking for clarity. It automatically defaulted to the sales cap when I turned it in which is fine, there is no way to tweak it, it’s either on at sales cap or off.
I wish they’d fix the covers disappearing if you castrate.
I just wanted to provide a bit of feedback on the objectives -
Today I had "do 40 missions" over on UK, which gave me 20 passes. Without an MA, this would be 40 aging points, and based on the going rate of 1 point costing 9 passes, that means this objective would have cost me 360 passes if I was to buy the points 1 by 1, or a little under a 1/4 of the aging point pack, which if you divide by 150 is 4 passes rounded, 3.26 unrounded. Even with the pack, I would have had to have spent over 6 times the worth of the payment to do this objective.
There are also the seemingly more frequent "use an item from ____ category", which are usually over double the pass value of what the payout would be if you had to buy the item.
The objectives would cost way too much compared to what they would pay out if you had to buy the items to use. 10 and 20 passes would have been an acceptable payout with only the old objectives, as there were fewer harder objectives and you didn't have to use pass items anywhere near as frequently, but now that there are more "use this item", "ride in the __ for __ hours", "do ___ missions", "stroke a donkey/draft unicorn", etc, the payout is no longer fair.
What I am suggesting is to either scale the payment to cover at least half the cost, give us a third optional objective where the harder objectives will be and a higher pass payout, or just increase the payout. At present time, it just isn't worth it if you are lacking what you need to use or if you need to buy one of the more expensive species to use.
The 15/30 pass objectives should be the new standard, not just available once in a while, while the bonus is closer to 25/45 passes for the two objectives.
These replaced pass horses, which were a possible 3000 passes a month if you sent enough to get everything, so having the 840-930 passes a month made near impossible/expensive to get for the average player really isn't fair, at least in my opinion.
I know Howrse is a business and all that, but I feel if people are putting in the effort to get these passes, it shouldn't be as difficult as it is now to get them.
