That's pretty impressive they added mounted combat But I guess quite a few people would have moved on by now.

[SnowmanTheFrosty]

I always wanted mounted combat

[GunBallad]

should be an interesting new aspect of the game

They need to add a way to track where your current companion/follower is. All too many times I have my companion following me and then I turn around and they are gone. I have no clue where they are, how long they've been gone or why they disappeared. I typically have to restart from my last save and proceed cautiously so I don't lose them again. It'd be great if there was a little blip on either the radial compass up top or on the zoomed in world map where I could locate them.

Sounds good. Always thought it was stupid that you couldn't attack on a horse.

Looks cool but hard to use, and I don't believe u can use magic while riding, so healing is out the window. I wouldn't use it because there is no cover, u are right out in the open. Cool feature just to mess around with though.
