Riding Horses

[Bruce of Wayne 81]

Ok I get this prolly ain't happening but I kinda think it's be cool if you could ride horses. They would be pretty rare as most would die and only a few would live to carry on their horse legacy, but maybe you give them food and for each bit of food you have a chance to make them tame. And once they are tame you must but reins on it to steer it and in order to reduce fatigue on you and the horse(which btw would need to be fed) you would want a saddle. Think it's a decent idea but not gonna happen.

No.

• Hit a tree. Horse explodes
• Scroll and "Remove wheel"; horse explodes
• Ride on train tracks. Horse flips over... explodes
• Shoot with crossbow. Horse explodes
• Gut. Horse explodes
• Shoot with RPG. No reaction.

Hey no problem :)

Horses would be cool, they might add them in SA

[Day Unit 18]

Wait, nobody in this thread watched the latest livestream with Rocket? Horses and dogs are confirmed. Hunting and farming and setting traps are confirmed.

 

Doing certain things frequently would result in your character becoming better at the thing, this is confirmed as well. This means character's life would have more value, so character won't fight to the death for their gear against a bandit. Shoot-On-Sight mentality reduces as well, since dying becomes more relevant. Also, shoot-on-sight mentality reduces because unless it's headshot, you'd damage target's gear if you fire at its body.

 

Another example Rocket made on survivor's life value is immunity. Survivor who had previously fought off a disease would develop immunity to the disease.

It's possible in ARMA 2 but this is what you'll get.

Lol.

It spun out and had person eyes.

Thats one scary horse.

I imagine in SA they'll be implemented a bit better than a retextured motorbike though.

Would take some clever programming, but I think its possible. TBH Id rather have horses as primary transport (maybe donkeys as a slower alternative) and each server have maybe 1 or 2 cars. Could find saddle bags to increace gear capacity, and have to feed your horse. Also if they had to drink the little ponds would become much more frequented and be likely ambush sites.

1-2 cars, thats silly.

I think there should be hundreds of very ruined cars.

Not to drive (c wit I did thar) the thread off topic, but I think that hundreds would prolly be a bit too much. Maybe 70 or so and you could slap a Russian Car Dealership sign on a building and have a lot of parts there and a couple cars. ANYWAY, whoever said there would be horses and dogs was is it confirmed that horses would be rideable and dogs trainable? Also if you can find it I'd like a link to where they were confirmed.

Rocket has mentioned animals, he said he has deer (instream i think) goats, sheep, boar confirmed for Alpher?

he said he liked the idea of having horses? and they were planning dogs?

Think thats right.

Huh, cool.

[Bruce of Wayne 81]

And of course we need an Australia map with rideable kangaroos. And a Gotham map with a Batmobile.

... What?

[AP_Norris 1018]

Huh, cool.

Don't trust me though.

Because truth be told I don't trust what I just said.

And a NZ map with Moa #Moaaren'texctinct

And Rockets spaceship of course.

Yes, as many know Rocket is in charge of the New Zealand Space Program

Sometimes he calls it Program Zealand for short, thats the PZ we're always hearing about.

And SA is The Space And Aerodynamics Program, or project Rocket. Anyway, about horses, to simulate the condition of them, maybe they should have random base speed stats. (Of course, they would go slower when hungry or thirsty or tired no matter what.)

Yes, maybe you should be able to tie them up and what we used to have when we had horses is this sort of net thing and you just chuck hay in that as it was just hanging on the wall in the stable, if you could find sorts of feeders and stuff for animals around farms that'd be great.

Them you don't have to worry about them dying or trying to run off when your gone.

They do eat grass, so you probably shouldn't have to worry about them starving.

However I think if you aren't feeding them much you should loose that special bond and they might treat you like a stranger again.

The chance of them running from where you left them if they're not fed by you for about a week would be high.

I was thinking about breeding, and I basically think a real life week should simulate a year.

A horse in his prime is about two years old i think.

Find male & female horse, leave them in close proximity and the female would be pregnant for about a week, theres no animation so (you cant be there to see it happen), once the pony is born it will be fully grown and ridable in about two weeks.
