Blaming ambassadors certainly was not intended. Can't tell the same about blaming Owlient for asking neither players (via survey) nor ambassadors.
I hope that more attention would be payed to players' wishes in the future, though it seems like it's a fat chance. And about the events: Click to display As I understood it, after the Wondering Horses we have the Insular Mine, then the Vacation and after it the Water Baloon Fight. Am I right? Is it already known in which events new chimera horses (white bear and rhinoceros) would be introduced? |
@Saxon Warrior
Click to display Last time the chimera horses were simply introduced via the Titan's Challenge. So they were not part of an event/promotion, just the weekend luck item. Assuming it will be the same, maybe in a different luck this time, HoP or Golden Fleece. Click to display Regarding the Co changes, I've read on other servers that we can send tickets to the support with our concerns and maybe ideas to improve the current system. So there may be a chance that some parts of it will be changed until it goes live
|
And about the events: It appears Click to display That the water balloon mini promo may run before, during or after the Vacation promo. There is no start time.
|
Already if I wanted to compete with the top teams I'd need to be AP hunting 1000+ horses everyday, and that, along with other activities such as blupping takes a lot of time, we're talking all my afternoons and majority of my weekend - who has the time for that? Takes me about three quarters of an hour to AP hunt those 1100ish horses I do. AbBlup needs around 10-15 minutes as long as I can fill myself, excluding breeding. 2 blups each day from those hunted AP => about 2 hours investment each day. Ok, I am a rather fast blupper according to a few people but I simply know what to do and how to in the most efficient way. Not that much time if you ask me. I know games were you have to be online literally all day and night to at least keep your progression.. Guess, that new change is one of those things added to my evergrowing list of feedback I always plan on writing it but am too lazy to actually write it.. *sigh* Click to display The snowball and heart fight promos (which are basically the same) were always a minor ones in between the others. I doubt that one will be different. Thematically it would fit into the vacation. I'm intrigued to see how that ranking works. If they only do normal UFOs I don't see any reason to keep the price as they aren't near those you can win. Even a Lyre is more worth than a few carrots or mashes.

Even a Lyre is more worth than a few carrots or mashes. There is a difference this time. Click to display These are the prizes/UFOs for the Balloon Fight. I've only gotten H.Blanket, Bell boots and a mash so far, and the rarity of the prize you get determines the number of points. Sending the bell boots gave me 12 points, the mash 10, and the Blanket 30 points. Well, I should say the Blanket lost me 30 points because I kept the UFO instead of sending it to someone else. You lose points when you keep the gift.  On the main page you see points of the players near you have, as well as your rank and how many places you went down or up in the ranking. I can't find a way to view the points of the top players, but it's something I've asked about, because it would be nice to know.

Thanks a lot for the answers!
|
The only way I will support the new changes to the co-ops is if there is a button to switch it on automatically when you log out.
|
Please note folks that as of yet Ambassadors have not even been officially contacted never mind consulted. As an individual I tried to responded to co-man changes but was told this was only available through pre pod which i am not currently registered with. Our small group of 3 has agreed to have someone on pre pod for the future.

|
Our small group of 3 has agreed to have someone on pre pod for the future. Only the main preprod has a forum where you can interact with the admins. The regional servers do not. I am always on the main one as I have an account on International so get those invites ( about 1 week before the regional servers). I can say that most arguments here are on the test server as player concerns encompass all servers.

Does anyone know what will happen to the shared accounts of people who are inactive?

@Zero
Click to display it says in the VIP forum that the person sharing the account won't be able to log on if the original owner doesn't log on for more than thirty days, and you can only log on when the owner isn't logged on. it's a pain to be honest. :/ |
Does anyone know what will happen to the shared accounts of people who are inactive? I see this as Howse's way of clearing inactive accounts - as with the recent house-keeping where a number of accounts have been deleted from the server, these will do as soon as the time limit is up for the "owner" to log in.
|
I see they didn't make a discussion thread in the events forum, like they do with every other change ever.
I wonder why...

Usually there's a topic in the Event forum once it hits live servers. But as the PM states "in a couple of weeks"..
|
Just to add from the German Ow message.
Click to display They say it's probably launched on 17.7.2018, means two more weeks. They say the Co feature was introduced to be a helper when a player is in holidays/has no time. But it's used to keep dead accounts alive and for speeding up the blupping process when more than one player is logging into an account
|
There is a thread on the VIP Forum for the proposed changes.
If I loose pass horses it will hit me hard. I'm on a ltd income and I feel sorry for the school kids. I can see the server just getting smaller

I can see the server just getting smaller They are changing co-management. That has nothing to do with the availability and use of pass horses? Unless you have someone via CO to ap hunt but I doubt you do that..

I posted this in the VIP section One of the main reasons is due to recent changes in how personal information is stored and available. This was verified by an admin on the AU server https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation These changes were approved in 2016 but came into effect May 25 2018.
