I'd rather see horses/Pegasus, uinicorn, & centaur get their own horsey pack with stick horsey for kids. Miniature horses that never grow. With all the horse breeds, racing, and actions, it could easily have a game pack by itself.

I want Farming to be fleshed out with machines and real work. If there isn't a buggy/carriage or plow, then horses really don't have anything to do with farming. With farm animals that you get supplies from, things you can do with those supplies(making stuff), fences- electric/barbwire/board with x/falling down stick fence, harvestables, rag dolly, antiques, machines, sprinklers, pre-made barn/build/buy barn parts with spaces you can put supplies or stack till there's no more room. Hopefully not inflated with CAS to the point of limiting the stuff I just mentioned. B) :p <3

I agree. Horses would be better fleshed out in their own pack . They could do barrel racing, rodeo stuff and or others things having to do with horses. I want to see chickens, pigs, cows, goats and sheep in a farm pack. More crops like corn, grain, hay, etc. I want the animals to be able to reproduce, to be able to sell them, to use as meat, and also to produce things like eggs, milk, have a butter churn, a canning station, farm implements, a tractor, and I would love to see a sewing machine in this pack..... an old one and a newer one....maybe wool from the sheep, or a cotton crop could be used for fabric. This would also be a good place to include off the grid stuff if you want. I would love to see a farm pack!

There are many farm related things to add to it. Horses just has too much to add with it and would really hurt a farming EP. Farming isn't about racing ect., it is about making a living off the land & animals & getting produce from animals.

I absolutely agree with the first two posts and have said basically the same thing on other threads when this comes up.
Many people who live in a rural lifestyle do use and have horses but they aren't integral to running a farm. If they add them in a farm pack either they and their activities will be lacking or other aspects of actual farm life will be.

You can bet it will. EPs aren't what they were in Sims3. Horses have next to nothing to do with farming as in crops and supplies. We don't have cars ect. so carriages wouldn't be viable. They could be used for the plow, but that could be added in if you have the Farming EP. It isn't as if they haven't done that already/put things in if you have so and so pack. Also, for those who do love horses, they would be cheated. CAS would be huge for them, their actions, their supplies, and the jumping ect. they do. It would be way too much for a Farming EP and would bloat it with unrelated stuff. I'm not a horsey person, although I grew up riding them, but if they had the supernatural horses then it would be a have to have EP.
