Horse gameplay features.

[djb204]

Horses are now part of the roadmap. If it does make its way into the game, it would/could add a fresh new elements to gameplay.

- horses can get spooked by Cougars or wolves and buck you off. But, horses have a tendency to return home, so you might find your horse at your camp. Though you will be walking.

- horses can carry gear for you to lighten the weight on your backpack.

- horses need to eat, drink, and rest too. Not to mention kept warm during freezing temperatures.

- horses can't climb up or down steep terrain, so safe paths will need to be taken.

- you could find yourself waking up in the middle of the night and running out to save your horse from a wolf pack.

- crafting saddle, reins, horse shoes, etc, will be a cool feature.

- would you put a bullet in your horse's head to escape a hungry grizzly? I think I would. The horse would ditch me if it gets the chance lol

what other horse gameplay features would you add?

To be honest im not quite sure how horses could be implemented in current conditions. At least not until spring is in the game. With their needs for food, water and shelter, it would be rather tricky to do. Plus same wolves and issues with terrain.
