Genetics? Cast your vote!


We have been reading amazing suggestions on genetic models for Lioden. We do agree users have amazing ideas and we'd like to see what other players think about the ones we picked. We only want your opinions for now, okay? There is no guarantee we'll make any changes to genetics at all as it stands, so we're just taking opinions and ideas for now.
We'd like to point out that the random outcomes for genetics are still needed, because you guys are lions, not humans that are breeding lions. You are not able to test specific genetics in a lab, and getting the always same path to get a specific result would be boring as well. We want to make it exciting still, and we believe those suggestions would be good with or without tweaking by our coders:

Alma's big genetic model - complete revamp of our whole system. I personally love it so I really want to see player's opinions on there!
Kamau's Deadly genetics - this afaik keeps current model of passing bases and markings, but adds more variety to it.
Raksha's special breeding outcomes - same on current genetics, but adds new outcomes that can happen only via specific marking and base breeding crosses.

If you feel like you always wanted to make a big genetic model, now it's your chance. We will repeat the lists with new additions in news post for 2-3 weeks and then pull it down to talk things out.

Being serious a moment: All 3 genetic models have advantages. In all honesty I think the best solution to adding more variety, improving the economy of the game, and adding a little touch of reality would be a little of each. By that I mean, breeding only things, markings/bases/eyes/etc., making certain bases/markings/etc. less common, a wider variety of bases, and random mortality for cubs; not fatal mutations, just random still-borne cubs, especially for older lionesses, like 12-14 years old, and/or 1st litters.

I love Alma's genetics. Though I do breed for fiery coats only, I would hate to have too many "Fails" from a special lion. With lions only able to breed so many times in their lives, would there be an issue of a lioness with a special base throwing too many fails, and in the end dies without offering up that base?

With Kamau's, I dont know if i would want to spend money on something that may result in a stillborne or fatal birth. Studding to a male with the risk of a deadly birth makes me not want to spend $ on anyone elses stud. I'd rather save my money and breed internally within my own pride. I think this could hurt the economy, though it is very intriguing and could be something that could be implemented in mutaion breeding.

With Raksha's, I dont know if i would want to spend money on something that makes it even more rare to get special bases and marks. Thus giving people with more money and the ability to spend vast amounts of GB to get the special base/mark, would that not give an unfair advantage and possibly corner on the market to a select few groups? Causing a rift between the "haves" and "Have nots" is a risky and dangerous business. It does seem intriguing though to make marks and bases interact.

Im pretty on the fence about genetics as a whole. I like the basic predictability of the bases right now. Marks are a different matter. Im starting to feel as though we have way too many marks out right now. But I can understand they keeping it fresh is important.

I really think adding genetics will just overcomplicate everything, maybe just make it less random, instead of having a huge genetic system?

First, the new eye colors are amazing and thank you for them!

Second- the genetics systems. I agree that changes are needed, but I don't think the three ideas are in any way mutually exclusive. I can see the merit to combining all three! Use Alma's model, but include the caveat that certain bases (ones that the admins wish to keep rare) either have a chance for lethality or the base simply has a smaller chance to pass on. I think similar ideas to Alma's could easily be applied to other areas- eye color, mane length/shape and color, etc.

TL;DR: All the ideas are awesome, none of them conflict, so use 'em all!
