[UPDATED] Devs' Corner: November 2024
This new change is ridiculous, unnecessary, ugly, and pointless.
We told you so many times on Prepod - noone would have a problem with this if you'd just moved the trophy page to collections as is! The new page is borderline non-functional and has got rid of one of the best parts of the game. Congrats, you've ruined something for no good reason whilst ignoring all the things that actually DO need fixing.

I'm really not liking this new trophy page. Specifically the trophies themselves. I loved having the different icons on my player page to show what i had achieved the medals aren't as informative or cool. They're boring & generic and i just don't like them. I hope you come up with a better option soon.
|
But my biggest question is what is gonna happen to players rank? Will it stay the same cause I spent a lot of time getting to where I am and I would rather rage quit than have half my trophies not even count.
Why don't my collection trophies count? I've spent MILLIONS of eq and thousands of passes on every rc I own. This is beyond unfair
|
They need some serious rebalancing, this is a good example of one that should be a gold or even a diamond, not a bronze -
Distinctions I Win 1 distinction in the weekly Grand Prix ranking
|
Breeds by species 99%
so I enable Only display missing elements --- result NONE.. until i scroll forever on a crazy long list. Howrse seriously you make me tired! What was wrong with the old layout? Achievement > trophies >> special coats > horse breeds (breeds by species) > see all those clicks just to see if I have all horse breeds and then even more clicks on a superlong list And super gigantic images of the horses etc. The GA section and all the others ... you get 5 thumbs down for this change
|
Thanks for enforced Tarpan ownership.
/sarcasm I like the change to being rewarded for achievements, but as usual it appears clumsily and clunkily executed. Ugly layout, ugly 'tropies', convoluted menu stacks and so on. Worst of all, no option to not accept a specific reward if you do not want it (and in fact this prize of Tarpan is a detriment to my personal game) I daresay I'll get used to it all, though.
|
Hate it. One of the only things keeping me on horse was being able to have goals and collect trophies and see all of the different ones on the page. This is not only ugly out pointless and the coat thing too also unnecessary. Sorry really not a fan.
|
I feel that any backlash that comes from this would have been prevented had the trophies stayed as they were and we had a separate tab for this called "achievements". Being rewarded for putting the work in is great, but it shouldn't come at the cost of an aspect that many people loved.
|
How do I click and see which specific trophies I have?
|
I quite like some aspects here. Have some new goals to get set on and areas of my game where I've been slacking. E.g. my p*op collection, remembering to enter prix, winning those 100k comps Just a bit annoyed that coats will become valueless
|
I liked seeing my old, beautiful trophies displayed on my profile. I took great pleasure in arranging them to be aesthetically pleasing. They were one of my favourite profile features.
The new medals are HIDEOUS - and completely pointless as they say nothing of WHAT a player has achieved. Where did my Golden Apple overview go? If you no longer have to hold onto something that gives a trophy, will this not tank the value of all those things that can be sold on? If one horse can give the same trophy to several players? I'm not sure I understood that part at all. I'm sure I will find more things I loathe - but the missing trophies really are a downer.

I appreciate the changement of being gifted for getting achievements ! The old page was in dire need of refreshing, the level reached by some horse just made them obsolete. But I am sure some critics are valid, I never pay enough attention - because easinesses, obsolescence are a bad combo - before to offer advice on the matter. And being rewarded put a new perspective in it!
|
Oh. It now takes a horrendous amount of clicks to be able to get an overview of which trophies you have, which divines you own in each collection etc., where before you could view them all ON THE SAME PAGE.
Thanks but no thanks for ruining what used to be a player friendly experience. Anything that adds MORE clicks is a complete no-go. Surely you must know that.

For the coat as a mobile player, they always were in the category «collection». So I don’t really feel the change tbh.

Yeah it works on mobile but when you're playing on the website, the new layout just doesn't work at all! You can't just stick a mobile layout on a website. There is so much more you can do with website graphics and they've just ruined it by being lazy and changing it to the mobile layout. Everyone just vote 1/5 for the changes, they might start paying attention rather than ignoring all our contact us messages...

I'm not even going to touch that Reward button, I don't need or want a Tarpan
This update is unneeded, ugly, childish and not it at all. I'm definitely echoing other players sentiments posted above. Also the way the Golden Horseshoes, which were proof of our participation in events, just disappearing like they never existed is just rude, I liked collecting them and having the trophies we got for them on display. Our player pages look disgusting, I'd much rather the classic trophies back, it was nice to display what we'd earnt and seeing what other players had worked hard to earn. The way to get to and see what coats you need for breeds is super clunky and time consuming, way too many clicks are needed. Even though I've been playing consistently for a while this update makes me really not want to play. I feel a large part of our game was getting to display the trophies we had earnt and now we get that snatched away from us without any consultation and what consultation was done clearly wasn't listened too judging by some of the comments on this thread. There are some many more words I could type.... I just hope the game returns back to how it was before this horrid update or we're given the chance to choose which trophy/collection version we want to play because I would go back to the classic one in a heartbeat.
|
I've removed the "trophies" from my profile - new setup is useless
|
I'm cautiously liking elements of it so far - will see as we proceed...
I don't like the loss of the more interesting trophies, or the lack of detailed info/history with the new ones. I do like being able to toggle to view which companions etc I still need in collections.
|
I'm disappointed that they haven't taken the opportunity to let us see which of our horses have a particular Ow's Ray. If you click on the link it just shows you one horse at random, even if several have the same ray.

Love how I've won 14,880 rosettes on my account yet according to the 'trophies' I have only won 2000... but of course they've 'transferred our progress'

As I said on prepod, WHY do we have percentage based collections that PHYSICALLY cannot be completed by all players????
I used to love working towards the old trophies because they were attainable, but the new collections system means I won't ever be able to hit 100% on things like RC or card collections. What a way to disincentivise pass buying....
