Hounds

Postby Wolfang » Thu Feb 11, 2010 8:33 pm

Found in the wild as Wolves and Foxes

Once you break them they become Hounds/Dogs
They can have different atributes
Hunting Hounds: Dogs you can train to hunt for/with you
Warhounds: Hounds used to fight other humans
Working Dogs: Dogs that you can give Bags en then equip stuff in them
Food Dogs: You eat them
Lap Dogs: they sit on your lap???
Bitches: They get babiezzz

So when you tame a wolf/fox, you it will have some stats, but you can still choose it to be a Working dog, even though its stats are more of a Hunting dog, the only difference would be that if you had chosen Huntign dog, it would have been higher Q.
You can breed them ofcourse.

I thought it would be nice to implement mans best friend =D

Fox != dog. Even 50 years of breeding hasn't been able to turn a fox into a tame animal.

Having dogs sounds fine to me. If they could be used as a form of offline home security, that would be a bonus (i.e. attack all people who use trespassing to access land). Of course, if someone is going to bust through brick walls (or even palisades) to rob you, some dogs aren't going to be much of a threat to them.

Dogs have been suggested several times, though I don't know if training them for different jobs has been. Hopefully we can get some really big, badass dogs. I'm talking Mastiffs.
