The Homeling Collective held their first semi-official invasion of the Park last night, after the Command Central meeting let out early. This is SUCH a great place for Dramatic Walks! The train was not accepting passengers, so we were not able to do a Dramatic Ride, but I’m sure that will come. I’m sure this was just the first of many glorious gatherings.

zero for three so far:

1) dog park is actually limited to dogs
2) train is not yet accepting customers
3) neither are the swan boats

But despite that, I had a wonderful time in the park last night. Got up to Level 4, ate lots of fast food, ran lots of races, had a good laugh at the rows of Dr. Pepper machines sprouting up everywhere. The place is already developing a personality, and it’s very much like the old Central Plaza, with the addition of motorcycles. VEEMEE has a winner here.

VEEMEE THANK YOU!!! What a fun filled packed space! Gave me the feeling of being at my real city park. Spent most of opening day there. Great article Terra

I spent a bunch of time there today and I loved the space. The best thing about it in my humble opinion is just how big it is. Kudos to VEEMEE for taking the time making something this big. There is room for a ton of stuff, and it was nice to see people breaking out the bikes,motorcycles, horses and just about every other ride and companion. It’s funny that I didn’t realize how badly Home needed a space like this until I saw it for myself. I hope we see more of this kind of space in Home. I plan on buying a skateboard and returning.

This place is full of WIN!!!
I seem to have problem riding the swans or getting on the train atm. But more than willing to wait for this to be fixed.
Thats how you build a space. VEEMEE must have taken a lot of time working on this and all I can say is….BRAVO!! Great job you guys.

Personally, I don’t really see this as a replacement for Central Plaza either, but gut instinct tells me many people will.

And a Homeling train *so* needs to happen.

Personal to-do list:

1) Take lion companion for a romp in the dog park
2) Fill the perimeter train with costumed Homelings
3) Play Cutthroats in the Swan Boats

Seriously, this looks like a totally epic space. I hadn’t thought of it as a Central Plaza replacement, but I think you’re onto something, Terra. This looks like the perfect hang-out-with-friends space.

I love the look and feel of this space already and I haven’t even been there. With some of the new items that have come out in the recent updates, such as the portable picnic blanket, it is almost like the developers here were talking to each other and making products that fit into each others ideas. This will be a big hit for sure with many people.

Heh heh, Terra, I do like your anagrams…

I’m loving the look of this place! For the first time in DONKEYS, I’m actually rather excited to get into Home after today’s update is done. Veemee have obviously been watching and listening.

Can’t. Wait.
