[UPDATE] Saddle up (Horses are coming)

[Baltimore21224]

Via another group...it was leaked that horses are coming to SFP.

I thought I'd post the pic that was on the site.

I guess another update is in the future.

The official news (I received it from FM directly):
Horses! Available from level 11 onwards!
Sims can take care of them and ride them (unsure how, perhaps like riding a car).

I have no details on the exact release date, but I do know that there will be official news and a video next week!
Keep an eye on https://www.facebook.com/thesimsfreeplay

Looks kind of cool. New building(s) I take it, wonder where they'll be on the map? And hopefully they don't cost orbs like beach/arcade.

Looks like a Sporty Orb goal, but since Death is at higher level, maybe it can't be!

Or maybe a new personnality ?
Like "nature" and getting orbs of this new personnality to unlock Horse Center.....

In May......thanks for the extra info

If it is for 11 and up, it won't have anything to do with the orbs, at least for building. It might be a part of the life dreams though. Thanks for sharing the pictures!

Looks cool. Hopefully you can bypass the Update of Doom and still access it.

Yet another object/item/idea that EA /FM has 'sourced' from Second Life.
first came horses then came bunnies then meroos. All of which required extra hours and extra dollars.
The rate the last update of death is FORCING me to euthanise my sims the horses will have no sims left to ride them.
Sorry to people who visit in my GC that my town is more like a deserted ghost town, but I refuse to spend anymore real life money on a game that has no ethics or values it's players.

The horses update has nothing in common with breedables (for the gullible with too much money) from Second Life. Which was far from original, Creatures from the mid-90's probably qualifies as the origin of SL's breedables. After at least a decade and bit, Creatures will be made for portable devices! I hope they don't mess it up with in-app purchases. Horses have occurred in many games well before Second Life started (in 2004).

Back on topic:
Horses are more like reindeer on venues lots. Kind of like in the Sims 3, except that you can't have stables on your house lot. (I think).

Off topic:
As for the LD&L update effects, I agree it's far from enjoyable now. But to say there won't be any Sims left to have them ride horses is nonsense. You can still add new Sims or have babies.
To vent your disgruntlement about the LD&L (death) update, please use the appropriate threads.
