New features

HellOw,

Our developers have something to tell you!

Every three weeks, approximately, our devs will provide you with information about their work in the “Dev’s Corner.”

This topic 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 constructive.

Take a look at our Devs' Corner here!

Warm wishes,
The Howrse Team

    I really do not play anymore because it seems that if you are not VIP or a top player, you will not succeed in this game.


    Because I feel like this needs to be clarified, it's perfectly possible to succeed without a VIP account, we don't get pass or item handouts or anything like that, we just have more ease of use with our account. We also don't get discounts on things that cost passes or equus, so it honestly baffles me whenever I see people say "you probably won't succeed without VIP", because it is very possible to do so if you put your mind to it.

    I am not a VIP and yet I have still managed to complete most promos without passes and I still get divines. I think I have 30 something divines and I never bought passes before- not even once. I have a line of selle-corns with decent genetics that I bred up myself. And I won eligibility for a VIP account. Is this what you consider successful? I agree that it is possible to succeed as a non-VIP and as a non-pass buyer. It just takes a bit longer due to a slower start up. I suppose how successful you are just depends on how much you're willing to put into the game? If you're not going to put anything into the game then you're not going to get anything out of it. Isn't that how everything works?

    I'm pretty happy that the reindeer are finally going to be able to do something other than take up space in my storage tab or suck resources with zero return, even last place in every comp they're ever placed in would be far preferable to gaining nothing.
    The ability to give them skills for passes is kind of screwy, I sincerely hope that the events they're used for in the future DO NOT take those skills into account as it would be grossly unfair to non pass buyers if that gave any significant edge in the events.

    I've never even been a Pegasus and am fairly successful,and have a fair amount of equus and passes. Sure I'm not a great example, but I am an okay one. And people need to see VIPs might not have more passes then others because they pay 5000 for 6 months default smiley xd

    Has anyone else noticed that aging points seem to be much harder to come by? Or, is that something that happens when you are new and then resets after you have been on for a while? I had loads and now I have hardly any but I haven't been playing any differently.

    Since the chance of getting them is random, it seems to depend on the day. Some days I get loads, and others, not so much.

    The more horses you wake up, the fewer aging points you find.

    Not sure if this is the right place to report bugs or what not, but I've found that I can't watch ads on the mobile version of the game, and this has been the case for the last few days now. Usually the video player opens up and plays the ad, but now the page has this message: "This feature is currently turned off." Anyone else get this? Desktop version still works though.

    Mods feel free to delete this post and let me know where to ask this if not appropriate here

    I noticed a change on the mobile version pass page today. I live in the US. My pass purchase options are now:
    59 passes for 99¢
    399 passes for $4.99
    999 passes for $14.99
    2,999 passes for $34.99
    7,999 passes for $79.99
