Make turtle faster?
 
If rhino which is 10k less than turtle is faster than it, they should make turtle faster.

Real turtles are slow though 0:

so are snails but that mount is pretty much the speed as all others.

Dusty 02-23-2013 05:48 PM

Well I can't say accurately, but wasn't the turtle the first 2-player mount? Having that, and the fact that it's... well a turtle, the slow speed was justified. However retro-actively adding in more mounts that can offer 2-player mounting while also being faster and apparently cheaper isn't really well thought-out. *shrug* At this rate all the mounts should be the same speed.

At least, these stats should be visible before purchase.

You get what you buy next time save up more and not buy cheapest mount.

If we made the turtle go any faster it'd burn out it's poor little heart, it is already carrying two fat ass graalians, do you want to kill the poor thing? I'm glad sick people like you aren't running this game...

If you realize, rhino is 40k, so your argument is invalid.

Graal uses logic? They make it so you can turn into a dragon, a swamp creature, a snail that has the same speed as all other mounts such as addy pointed. But i agree with you dusty that there should be an option to see the speed of the mount. Thanks for that suggestion.

Just because a game doesn't apply to real-world logic in every physical possible way, doesn't mean it needs to toss everything out of the window. Games can only simulate various aspects of the world to various degrees; any and every game out there will sacrifice some sort of logic because the real-world rules don't make for good gameplay. Graal does happen to be on the farther end of the spectrum, but that doesn't mean it should break all the rules because it has broken others.

The fault here isn't that the turtle is slow, it's that these aspects of the game have been very poorly balanced. If the turtle is slow, mounts like the snail should have been slow too. If the turtle is slow and a two-player mount, but a rhino is fast and also a two-player mount... yet cheaper, then there should have been better balancing there as well. The Rhino should have been more expensive, for the turtle should have an incentive for being more expensive than another mount that is cheaper AND better.

However it's probably too late to fix these issues because it'd require nerfing items players have already paid for and in my opinion that's not fair unless they are compensated.

No problem, those iEra folks do it all the time. :D

Rhinos are faster than turtles by like 10K times.

Winter 02-23-2013 11:36 PM

Why would you buy a turtle in hope that it could stand up to a rhino? Anyways, slow and steady wins the race!

Not a horse race! Even though neither are horses.
