I don't. I'm no longer under any illusions that this system will be fixed or is at all fixable at all. 4.2 will roll around and be nearly exactly like 4.1. That is what I think anyway. I'll be pleasantly surprised if it is not, but I'm not holding my breath.Quote:

I hope they realize that only adding 1-2 wards at a time isn’t a solution in the slightest. Unless they do something drastic like add 100 more wards to each housing area simultaneously to make it drastically more difficult for scalpers to get, it won’t work.
Another issue is the housing reclamation itself, I don’t like the current system as is, I actually think it needs to be harsher, way harsher. It really bothers me when I see entire wards bought up but when you spend any decent amount of time there you never see anyone. Unless people are actively utilizing and spending time in their houses, I don’t think they should get one honesty. -

can't tell which is less self aware, the email we got several hours /after/ all the plots on all servers were bought up

Or, the link the "click for details" sends you (that's still live btw)

Considering relocation wasn't even working the moment the patch went live, it begs the question of what was even being tested, regardless, here's that link: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/patch/4_1
"At long last, the plots... will go on sale"
It's like the whole patch was nothing more than just a bit of bad PR, even when ya look at how little was actually done with Hildibrand, but they had to make him part of the face of the patch... what? -

This will not fix housing. You know this, I know this, Yoshi knows this.
Nothing will change except introducing couple more wards. I'm guessing additional 3 wards per zone.
What I would like to see however is a restriction system put in place and/or a actual resell system. Maybe something similar how demolition works, ie you get back 80% (i think) of the purchanced plot. It could help against the flipping problem. -

Not really since it kind of still encourages costs for vacating in the first place.. just with more return...

10-17-2017, 05:59 AMSendohJinThat would add to flipping, not help it.Quote:

So to help with the housing issues i think they should make more housing in Ishgard and also Idyllshire, places where there are no housing and it would be a good option without putting housing instanced. I'm afraid if they make instanced housing that we wouldn't be able to talk to our neighbors or having awesome views of everyone's house and the beach or whatever views they have inside the housing zone. There are options in different cities or even zones for more housing. Everytime i go to Costa Del Sol i think housing would be awesome there, even though they have one in limsa already. Its just beautiful there. Anyways just putting these thoughts out there.
