paulsoaresjr 5 Posted March 29, 2017 So my newly tamed horse keeps bucking me off and I die from the fall. What is causing the bucking? He seems fed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ane 1213 Posted March 29, 2017 How good friends are you with the horse? The friendlier, the less chance there is for him to buck you off! Did you already get to the point where you have to name him? If not, keep feeding him until you do, in that case he should be friendly enough to behave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miguel Preguisa 443 Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) Are they supposed to stop bucking me off when they're named? I have to hold SPACE really often so they do not tumble me of the saddle.

Ane 1213 Posted March 30, 2017 Mm, once they are very loyal they shouldn't be trying to kick you We'll check it out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miguel Preguisa 443 Posted March 30, 2017 I always feed them a lot of berries so I can name them but I use (ride) horses rarely. Could that be it? That I can name even not so loyal horse? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ane 1213 Posted March 30, 2017 Well, after naming them you should ride them for a while (like an hour?) so that they become super friendly! Our horses are demanding, just some berries are not enough for them! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulsoaresjr 5 Posted March 30, 2017 He's definitely named and tame but that didn't stop him from tossing me! So we have to keep riding to make them less wild? But that could be a lot of deaths! Is there a way to land softer? Does armor mitigate fall damage? Can I stop the bucking? I wouldn't mind the training so much if I didn't have to reorganize after dying... Miguel, does SPACE stop the horse from throwing you? It seems like once he gets into this routine there's no stopping him! And yeah, I've done some Minecraft Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miguel Preguisa 443 Posted March 31, 2017 Yes, you have to hold SPACE, than it won't be able to toss you away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But dying immediately after falling from the horse is definitely an issue, so we'll fix that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ConsoleContempt 1 Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) This tends to happen, in my playing experience, when the horse gets stuck (clipping/collision issues?) or hung up on terrain or world object. I've not had this happen when just riding around unobstructed, but has happened many times if the horse gets hung up or stuck.

ConsoleContempt 1 Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) The other issue is that once the horse starts bucking you can't dismount to avoid being bucked-off & killed or severely injured. At least I've had no luck dismounting before being killed/injured. Edited March 31, 2017 by ConsoleContempt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain_Kush 18 Posted April 6, 2017 I've had the same issue (bucking once tamed and being insta-killed upon falling off during bucking) but I can confirm that if space key is held during you won't be thrown off. P.S.: My daughter named her horse "Brownie", she asked me to tell everyone. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
