Hey guys,
Today I will be "reviewing" mounts.
Now, you may be wondering what are mounts? Mounts are kind of like pets, but you can ride them, like pets follow you around, mounts will be a mode of transport. While I'm on the subject of transport, what other modes might there be?
Mounts- Example- You might be able to ride a skeleton, or a zombie using the "mount". A saddle could be used in this case.
Post in the comments what you think of mounts, if you think they should be added and why, of not, why?
Also with your post post about what other transport could be used.

Mounts are a cool idea, not sure how we would ride a zombie...but a mech would be fun!
I don't thinks they should have mounts because pl is mostly just you and a team fighting with skills
But cool idea tho

I couldn't agree with this idea any more, and hopefully its implemented at some point. Sadly, this idea has been brought up many times, not sure what's going to happen.
On the good side, all good ideas that are implemented have to be spoken of more than once. :D
I have thought of this, but not really that much!! It would be better if I could move faster!! I give this a thumbs up buddy!!;)

Considering the game isn't just one huge sandbox map which you would need a mount to traverse faster(such as WoW), there isn't really a place for them. All I see coming from this is uneeded lag.

I would like to see mounts in-game. It would add diversity and make STS a little more cash

It would be kinda cool and has been suggested many times before but i would have to agree with lowly

Unless they add some new features they are really unneeded

No. As much as I love mounts, there is no place for them in STS games. Where would you go? There is virtually 0 travel.
Of course, from a business standpoint, yes STS should implement mounts. Everyone would splurge on more plat to buy something they could "ride". I guarantee tons of people would blow 500 plat on a mount that doesn't even add any runspeed... just to have it.

Kinda agree. Used to play something where you could only mark spots, and they had really expensive mounts to make you go faster. But you had to pay real money. And it wasn't worth it to play a game like that, though it was big, but basically I don't think we need mounts. You can basically transport to any town and walk fast with elixirs on in town, the daily for example. And how would you fight on a mount? Many people do pvp or pve and it's basically constant attacking. A lot would have to be changed to make mounts useful and possible. Also, it could lag on androids, or ipods, iphones, or even ipads and android tabs.

Well, in order to have this implemented, the devs would need to to make the game more "Open-world", and maybe a new game mode to go into the sandbox arena. I actually love that idea, I won't make another thread, I'll continue the discussion here.
A sandbox arena could be like a huge desert, leading off to quests and new loot!

So basically mounts = remake the whole game, sounds like a good plan

Oh no, not the whole game, it's like an expansion pack, not mandatory. You could choose not to install it when you update the game.
A client update would be needed though, Apple would need to approve it and everything!

That wouldn't work either. We would end up going back to the days of when there was more than one server. People without the update wouldn't be able to play with those who did.

I think a poll should be made, stating the forums opinion with whether or not the majority wishes that it be implemented or not.
I myself would love mounts. Maybe more than two could be added, like a horse, a dragon, a yeti, etc.
Some could be purchased via platinum and others could be farmed. When you are using your mount, you run 10% (more or less) faster while in towne and PvE. This effect would of course not be added into PvP, because it would give an unfair advantage.
I think it would be a success because it adds customization. Plus for the buyer and STS.

I mean, the mounts don't need to be huge, the mounts can be a smaller size.
Mounts is just a suggestion, probably won't end up in the game, we have pets, which are kinda like mounts except you don't ride them.

ok to be honest i disagree with u all. mounts would be an excellent idea because if u hadnt notice we run kinda slow when we are not elixered up? or havnt u? it would be good to get out the way with mounts when u get mobbed up thts the biggest reason and i kno all of u agree especiallly the squishier classes. for all u steroid elixer ppl u dont care cuz u always have ur run speed at max. thts my thought on the whole thing and one more thing to..make a different mount for each class.

The problem with your idea Skel is that if every player in a town decided to pull out a mount, there would be unbearable lag for everyone. You need to keep in mind that although this game crosses over to chrome, it is primarily a mobile game and the aspects of the game need to be made for mobile devices.
