Many new features on Howrse

As we reported earlier, a whole host of new features have arrived on Howrse including a whole new way of conducting sales as well as numerous other changes. LucyLou and I are busy looking through all these new features and will soon bring you an in-depth look at your shiny, new Howrse.

There are hundreds of comments, both good and bad, in the forums right now. Players are discussing the new sales page layout, the fact you can now sell horses for up to 1 million equus, and Divine horses no longer have a 20 pass limit in their sales.

Auctions are now very different as as soon as you bid on a horse, that amount is debited from your account, unless someone outbids you. Also, an auction cannot be cancelled once it has recieved a bid - so no more pulling out of auctions for players.

And Pegasus Account holders now get the use of a free Seahorse on their horses as well as the ability to sell horses for passes in the auctions.

There are many other new features too. Some are popular and some are not. So whilst we delve into them all, why not post your comments on here and let everyone know what you think?

Big changes?

With the recent Flash sales and Sleipnir's in HoP's, just ended, it seems as though Howrse is about to see some big changes. And there's no time to think aboout them as we've had less than 24 hours notice. We're not sure how we feel about some of the changes as their effects could be quite far-reaching. We'll let you know more as we find out ourselves. However, one change we really are a little puzzled and concerned about is the removal from the Black Market of Eolus' Wind. Apparently you'll now only be able to get them in UFO's and 'during animations' - according to Howrse. EW's are a key part of the game for many players and so making them unavailable to buy when you need them could cause quite a few problems.

The other changes include a 'completely new sale system for your horses', a 'safe item exchange for every player', a GA bonus of +5 up from +2 (just to make sure you spend those passes!) and the removal of Hephastus' Horseshoes and Artemis' Arrow from the Black Market.

Phew. That's a lot of changes with almost no warning. In fact, this posting will already be out of date by the time you read it. So we'll make sure we get all the facts and info on these changes to your favourite game and let you know how it will affect you - the good and bad!

UPDATE: The changes will now be happening on 9th March. I've looked at the new versions of the site on my Russian account and there are some big surprises!
