Allow All Males to Breed within the Pack
Posted 2020-12-15 06:45:05 (edited)
I smiled when I saw the pair bonding in the news. I needed that pick-me-up this morning. Honestly, I thought they would never do something like this. The 2 breedings a month thing definitely doesn't make sense, so I do hope that's just something for now and we'll get more for free later on. (Or remove the cap altogether, that'd be perfect.) Or maybe there will be an item or something to increase the amount? Less preferable that way, but in any case, 2 just doesn't feel like enough. For one thing, the genetic pool doesn't widen that much due to the change. But more than that, because it still means males are less favorable, just slightly less than before. We all had 1 male since the breeding male, but now it's going to be 3. And the rest are going to be female still, so. That's my concerns with it, anyway, I'm still happy it happened regardless. I guess I'll actually go out today and... buy a male. Huh, never thought I'd see the day. |

This makes me happy, too. I guess some of the boy puppies will be staying after all. I do hope the cap is loosened in the future somehow, but I understand having one for testing of a new feature. Excellent job listening to the concerns of the users. |

I'm delighted. It wasn't my *favored* option, but it's a better system and I appreciate that they listened <3 |

Definitely an improvement over what we had. Limiting to two a month feels bad, so I'm really hoping it's just a trial thing. |

I'm really excited for the update (like mostly everyone, haha) and so soo glad that the staff was willing to make changes. Big props to them! Though I personally do feel like the 2 slots per month rule is too strict when there already is the male cooldown and the breeding pair restrictions on top of it (and also the strict rules to even be able to pair wolves together). |

Definitely better than what we had, but still not quite right in my opinion. 2 a month is too low a number, and I have a sneaking feeling that further slots will be locked behind a paywall. As someone above has said, two slots plus a cool down seems a bit too restrictive. |

I like it for lore reasons, but does that mean if I breed the two I bonded, it'll take one of the monthly slots, even if the male's my stud? The two of them could breed anyway, so I sincerely hope not. I hope bonding becomes less restrictive, but I suppose all we can do is see what happens. |
