Rush Courses

Post by spottedleaf10 »

Just a quick suggestion, I'd love to be able to instantly complete courses with PTs or in-game money.

Hi, just thought I'd drop by today. This is a cool idea, and there have been times when I have wished for this myself. However, I've played on some other horse games where things like this were implemented, and it generated a lot of unhealthy competition very quickly. I guess what I liked about this game in the first place was that there weren't too many handouts right in the beginning. Since new players can actually buy both pony tokens with their real-life money right now, this addition would foster too much unhealthy competition, and to be honest, I believe that it could frustrate older players who have already gone through the courses and spent a long time doing it. That's just my own two cents though; take it or leave it. :)

I do see that point... maybe there could be something that you needed to earn and not buy so you could use that for it? I don't know :)

Perhaps a monthly limit, say, 3 times a month.

Though I was at one point, all for speeding through the training myself, even at that point in time, I would not and did not agree to speeding the skill learning up.
I might, however, agree to a slight revamp in the learning to shorten some of the longest skill learning (I don't know how they figured out the length of time required for each).
Instead, I'd like for new skills to be added for further learning, and unless I'm mistaken, these will be coming when certain of our releases finally comes to us in game (for instance, veterinary learning).

But, as always, that's my personal opinion. :D
