Posted May 21, 2017 I like that bison have a speed bonus for wagons. It makes the game more interesting if there are different optimal mounts for different things. Unfortunately, the speed bonus isn't enough to make bison on wagons faster than well equipped horses and hell horses, which makes the wagon speed bonus a bit pointless. I suggest we either allow bison to be equipped with horse shoes and saddles, or increase their wagon speed bonus so that they're better on wagons than equipped horses and hell horses. If none of this is going to be done, the speed bonus may as well be removed, as it's a little pointless otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 21, 2017 I cant think of a positive feedback when it comes to normal 5speed horses on a wagon... Hellhorses are ok.. but annoying to play around the mess they cause.. 5 speed bisons is the way to go if you do not want to deal with more than parking them on a tile where they could eat. Aren't you getting ~20-25km/h on a wagon with 5 speed bisons? IMO as long they keep constant at least ~20km/h it's enough to keep distance from anything chasing you.. sloped roads are probably exception to that tho... while hellhorses seem to ignore sloped terrain and their speed isnt dropping.

I respectfully disagree. There's absolutely nothing wrong with using using horses to pull a wagon and it's not that big of an inconvenience to use HH. Bison hitched speed should be higher and they should be able to wear shoes. No saddle though, think that's a wee bit silly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 21, 2017 It's just silly that horses pulling wagon got saddles on them (ofc it's required for better speed) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just had terrible experience with 4x normal horses on a wagon.. never doing that again.. any other solution is better Sure man.. disembark and go afk for few minutes.. go make coffee or something.. come back to pick where you wish to respawn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 21, 2017 Yeah i heard saddles don't work on creatures hitched to carts, Only when they are mounted. And +1, Give bisons equipment and a bonus so they are significantly better than horses. idk if they should be better then hell horses though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 24, 2017 +1 to bison pulling wagons faster than horses. Makes sense. Bison are stronger. Horses have harder time with large load so they slower. Do same thing with ship transporter also. Using bison makes it go faster than horses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 26, 2017 I would love to see bison shoes. Right after they start selling alligator skin cowboy boots in the cash shop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 16, 2017 Thought Bisons already pulled faster then horses under loads? I notice a difference in speed with horses and bison when going up hill. Bisons stay steady while horses lose speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
