So far I don't think anyone knows since the test version isn't opened yet


I actually think that even when the test server opens the focus will not be on the next divine.

The changes coming up next for the EC will be more far reaching that anything we have had so far and I believe that is why Ow has suspended the Great Challenge until after the EC changes have settled on all the servers.default smiley :-x

So on the international version I was talking about how drafts are coming to that server, does anybody know if they are here?
The only thing we've heard about is work horses - which probably means drafts, but no one knows whether they will be a new species or simply items in the EC.

There is a spoiler a number of pages back (not sure where) where it shows Shires as a horse on a list of breeds as well as the species trophy being updated to 7 species, instead of the six we currently have. Believe that was indicated it came off the test french site.

Ok because players in the other forums are talking about how there is going to be drafts.

censurer This message has been censored since it does not follow the forum rules.
Where did you get that info? It's interesting but hardly credible without a source.

I have to agree with Aly37 - what is the source of the information you are posting in your blog. You also seem to indicate the information you posted about draft horses is going to be part of a wandering horses promo in May. Please provide providence for your information.

If the Wandering Horses are coming back that'd be super cool because they'd be my first!

Well, the French test server is active, so I'm assuming our Slovenian friend has translated them.

Not having consulted Ilirjan's blog, this is what I got from the French servers forums.

Click to display

What I really like is that the cost of the four resources, leather, sand, iron and wood will be fixed (I think 10 equus per unit) and goods (showers, tractors, etc) manufactured from them have varying prices based on supply and demand). So no "manure problem" - even if your EC is on the beach, you can still buy wood as much as you need, from what I gathered from the French forum.
For a pass, players can buy a pack containing 1000 of each of the four resources.
Also, a shower which is built from 2500 iron has a production price of 27500. Compared to what showers cost now, this looks like a great deal!
Apparently, though I'm not sure I translated that one correctly, VIP players will be able to manufacture horseshoe studs.

This is definitely sounding interesting. Looking forward to seeing what Cyberhorse posts once the test server opens - and also looking forward to seeing the changes

One of the things mentioned in the blog was employees - but it seemed to indicate that payment was going to be in diamonds - not sure I like that idea unless we have new ways to earn diamonds.

Two draft horse breeds are introduced to the game!

Draft horses have the same reproductive system as donkeys , that they can reproduce three times in their lives.

They will functions similar to otehr horses (BLUP, Train, compete, etc.)

They will earn double when preforming missions; so twice as much skills, equus, and twice as much equus and resources for the Center.

It will also be possible to propose Draft Horse coats for the Creation space!



AWSOME! got this from the international server!
not thrilled with what you guys are reporting .... doesn't sound like very much fun -- a lot of work and not much play

Lots of info on International. All posted by a mod who got it from the French test server.

Regarding meadows/boxes
Click to display

These actions have been removed to make things more simple. To compensate:

Feeding a horse will give more energy
The Prestige of the Center will also allow for Free Fodder to be given. Centers will still be able to grow and offer Fodder, but this will allow for extra fodder to help Centers keep their stocks and to help others.
The Feed Menu will tell you exactly how much will be taken from Inventory and Center

Bonuses gotten from the Box (Comb, Hoof Pick, Tub of Grease) - will be switched to being found during Missions (lessons)
Other treats (Finding Apples, sugar, etc) will be linked to the Feed action
The Bedding in the box will also help reduce energy requirements when giving birth

AS for the Divines who use these for their bonuses...The perk they offer will remain the same:

Longma : 100 % chance of finding the tub of grease to horses performing a task on days when the bonus is triggered

Opal : When eating a carrot , it can have the chance to find a diamond.

Quartz : When drinking , he may have the chance to find a diamond.

Missions:
Click to display

There are two kinds:
* Lessons
* Resource gathering
As director of equestrian center :
- Decide the proportion of lessons (gain of Equus ) and operational tasks (gain resources) that you want performed. Based on this proportion , your boarders can perform one or the other.
- Play on these proportions according to the number of residents and the number of missions they perform, so as not to exceed the operating limits of your resources.
- Set your priorities by focusing on finance, resource acquisition , or a balance between the two .
- Increase the minimum level of skills of your residents to collect more resources.
All this is managed from the office of the equestrian center.
Tip: By default , the split between lessons and operational tasks is placed at 50 %. If this does not suit you, you can change it.
As a breeder :
- You do missions by having your horse boarded in a center
- Your horse earns points in his two best skills
- You earn equus
- Tipping depends on the content of the mission of Equus if it is a lesson of resources if it is an operating Mission

New EC Items
Click to display

Trough
- The trough is placed on your meadows and improves the performance of your production 30% leather.
- The trough is placed in boxes and multiply by 4 the energy gain and moral obtained when the horse is drinking. *works with the Fountain bonus from the Prix*

They can either be manufactured in your workshops or purchased at the store. You decide what you most advantage!

For the moment , the presence of watering in the boxes does not count in the prestige of the equestrian center, allowing you to acquire them in as . Later, troughs will be included in the prestige of the boxes.

Tractors
-Your scarecrows became tractors. They improve performance by 50% of your crop as before.
- All improvements can be sold in the shop , showers and tractors included.

Cows
Click to display

Leather is a new resource that allows you to make saddles, bridles and bonuses for competitions (I assume this might mean wraps, bonnets, or possibly whips).

The leather is obtained by raising cows in a meadow. Like with a regular crop - the larger the meadow, the better the harvest

There are two different types of quality of cows. You recover more leather with Longhorn cows than with Braford cows.

Cow farms counted in the maximum number of fields that you may have in use simultaneously. Therefore , it is now possible to have 6 meadows crop / livestock simultaneously.

You organize also manage your meadows as desired . You can have six cows farms simultaneously; in this case , it will not be possible to launch a new culture. Or you can for example have two farms cows and four cultures.

If your equestrian center specializes in western:

- You get the leather where calves are replaced. Their price has been increased slightly
- Now , calves Braford increase the difficulty of cutting 4 points ( against two previously). If this type of calf is present in your cutting their number was divided by 2, rounded up unit
*there was some additional info - but my computer translated it very awkwardly so I'm not posting it*

And another new EC feature:
Click to display

Employees to improve your equestrian center
Employees ease your game and help you to make your performance center.
The secret market is completely removed . The objects that were sold there may be produced or purchased in the shop.
So a new feature appeared to help you make your most successful equestrian centers : employees .
Employees are available through contracts a month purchasable for 1 pass or 10 diamonds. There are 11 different acting on different aspects of your center to make your play, improve your performance or reduce costs. For example, the coach lets not include competition that the prestige of the least prestigious competitions; the vegetable (farmer?) allows you to increase by 20% the performance of your greenhouses ; the saddler leather needs decreases by 25% for your productions who ask .
You can have all active employees at the same time in your center . If you get several contracts of the employee, the times are cumulative. They are activated automatically as soon as they are purchased.
There will be Employee UFOs offered on the game so players can get a 5-day contract to test them out. UFOs for ECs will also be added.
They are NOT required for Centers - rather, they are more of a bonus than anything!

Also - Towards the end of March, 3*** facilities (tack, boxes, etc) and Troughs will be used in calculating prestige. You'll need 1 trough per box (like with Showers) for max. Prestige

And finally... workshops. Not sure about the translation on some of this.
Click to display
On tests there are fixed price, we asked the staff to keep the fixed price one month for failing to price inflation:

Small workshop> 10,000 Equus
Middle Dealer> 50,000 Equus
Large workshop> 150,000 Equus

The number of workshop that can simultaneously use is based on the overall prestige

0 to 20%> 1 workshop
20 to 40%> 2 workshops
40 to 60%> 3 workshops
60 to 80%> 4 workshops
80 to 100%> 5 workshops

Iron> 10th
Leather> 10th
Wood> 10th
Sable 10th
(price tests)

No official word on breeds... the glitch posted from another server showed Shires as an option when forming a team so those may be one of them. We will have to wait and see.

Here is an idea on how the time and resources needed for the various items the EC can produce. The translation is a bit wonky..


Click to display
You know I calculated we can win 1 million with the production of Equus

But only if it has 5 main workshops (a bigger prestige than 80%) that cost 750,000 Equus Equus Resources and 375,000 + production time (3 days)


I'll pass you the times
Bridles:
* 1 = 1 iron and leather 9> 4 h
2 * 2 = 18 iron and leather> 8h
3 * = 8 iron and leather 72> 12
saddles:
* 1 = 2 iron and leather 23> 4h
* 2 = 4 iron / 46 Leather> 8h
3 * 16 = iron / 184 leather> 12
carpet
1 * 2 lin => 4h
Band / cap
1 * 2 lin => 4h
Bells = 250 leather / 24
Spur iron = 750/24
Whip Leather = 500/24
Longe = 1250 leather / 24
Cleats 1750fe = r / 24
Box1 * = 25bois / 25sables / 12h
Box2 * = 500bois / 500sables / 24
* = Box3 2500bois / 2500sable / 48h
Small greenhouse 50bois = / 50sable / 12h
= Average greenhouse 250bois / 250sable / 24
Large greenhouse 2000bois = / 2000sable / 48h
= 250bois small workshop / 250serre / 24
Middle workshop = 1250bois / 1250sable / 48h
= 3750bois large workshop / 3750sable / 72h

This is gonna take some juggling around. A lot of juggling around. I hope those 5-day contract UFOs are permanent though >.> And hopefully they do give us a few ways to earn some more diamonds at that rate. Curious indeed, but looking forward to trying some things out!

I am getting excited for this round of changes. Looks like it will finally fit in with all the little things that have been changing for the past year, and we can see what the developers' final vision is when it all works together. default smiley (y)

So when producing items, I gather that it takes time as well as resources? Kind of like growing crops?

Yikes…. I think I'll give up gaining prestige in my EC, I'll just use to for crops and comps, and such. I already need the few passes I get…!
