Farm Animals

Postby fiveous » Tue Jan 15, 2013 2:33 am

I see people making farms but I don't see any farm animals. This is just something popped up in my head.

Skills:
- Farm Animals

Abilities:
- Tame animal (Captures animals from the list bellow.)
- Animal Breeding (Helps two animal with different gender to mate.)
- Pull animals
- Ride horse
- Milk Cow

Animals:
- Horse (Used as a mount, or kill for food.)
- Cow (Produces milk, or kill for food.)
- Oxen (Pulls cart, or kill for food.)
- Pig (Kill for food, pork meat > bacon.)
- Chicken (Eggs, or Kill for food)
- Sheep (Produces wool, or kill for food.)

Tools:
- Wool Trimmer (For sheeps)
- Milker (For Cows)
- Saddle (For horses)

Buildings/Objects:
- Barn (To store hay and other animal food)
- Animal feeder (Something like wooden box, can be used for food or water.)
- Cart (Used to place items, unlike sleds which are for liftable objects. Can be pulled by person but lower speed like the sled, or can be pulled by cow normal speed.)

There's already turkeys, doubt they'd add chickens. The rest has be discussed and thought of before.

Please no. I don't want a typical farm with typical animals doing typical things. Was fun in H&H, but I'm hoping for something different or at least a different way of feeding, harvesting, etc. No chickens! We have turkeys already.

I know there's other thread about farm animals, but my idea can be a bit different. I just haven't develop it well yet, why cant there be 2 same suggestion but with different details. If the dev likes the main idea but doesn't like the first idea details, he can jump to the second details.

It's easier for everyone to track and discuss the subject if it's all in one thread.

To note, plans are already in the works of adding a variety of domesticated animals to the game. We already have turkeys and horses. Other livestock (cows, pigs, maybe sheep and more) will likely come in the future months.

What we won't see are "taming" animals. Animals will initially be purchased from the Company Store for silver (possibly cash in some "starter" package on the website).

edit: to note, I only found one other thread relating to this, and it was a short post asking for animal husbandry. I know the subject has come up before with a somewhat extensive list, but I really don't recall where, so this may have been the first time it's come up with some depth since the forums were moved.
I am a moderator. I moderate stuff. When I do, I write in this color.
