  • Hi there, I'm Stormflight ;3 Hopefully  I have a good idea here. 
  • I just recently joined Beast Keeper, and I love the game. However... something annoys me on here. I feel that things take too long to be completed.
  • When breeding, it takes a full 24 hours to have a child, and then it takes three days for the offspring to grow up. It takes an hour to replenish one single unit of energy. If you're a younger person, such as I am, it's doubtful that you have the means tobuy, with real money, things to speed up processes.
  • Beast Keeper would be much more fun for me if I could accomplish more in a shorter period of time. Cutting the time needed for activities in half would be more than sufficient for this game.

Personaly I am really happy with the time it needs. Your point is clear, it would be exhausting if you always have to wait  weeks to reach something, but one day for the pets to give birth and three days for the children to grow up seems suitable. If the time is shorter it ends up in mass producing. It will also become boring faster because you reach your goals in a smaler amount of time.

 I have seen other pet sites with a breeding system and they are not as balanced as BK is. In some of them your pets need days to gain fertility back and in some others your pets can be spammed with stuff so they could produce a huge amount of offspring in one day :<


Why is there always a rush to reach something as fast as it could be? I sometimes don't understand the hurry, you have plenty of time in your life no need to haste ..

I dont think that these times need change.

Though I think that it would be nice if we could train our babies on some mini games for adult character bonuses C:

A game like "catch the Hopper"? :D would be a good reason to have a new building in which you could hold some Hoppers to 'play' with the young pets x3

Valid point. I'm still a youngster, I daresay, and I have a four-year-old's patience xD I mean, it takes five hours until you get enough energy to explore a single island. It takes four days to get and use a new, young pet. I suppose a day in gestation is fair enough, but three days to grow up seems a bit lengthy to me.

Well if you have more than 50 pets or so this will all change. You have more pets for exploring and training and also more they are available to breed with.

 

There is another point I want to mention. Angel tries to keep a realistic style of pet sim. If the time periods get shortened it will result in mass producing and this is not the intention

I just wanted to add in here, a suggestion like this will not be implemented, ever (except that minigame for adult boni would be cute ;))

Stormflight, if you read the sticky thread in this forum Commonly suggested and refused changes, you will see that time changes is one of the points that will not be changed. 

"Reduced time for energy regeneration, pregnancy, taming etc. Current time cycles are adjusted to provide a fair balance for all types of players. Reducing the cycles will become a source of a drastic gap between players who spend a lot of time in the game and those who have only 20-30 minutes for game daily. Planning plays bigger role than grinding, and we want to leave it as it is."
