Still Can't Bid on a Single House

Really, it’s not hard to comprehend: they are giving lottery winners some time to complete the house transfer. For those of them who had another house, it will also free that house plot for the next lottery.

The only thing is that the lottery cycles are way too long and they added days to that cycle by extending the period to claim a house up to the 26th. It shouldn’t be more than 2 days to claim and 2 days to bid.

The cynic in me thinks it's a good way to keep people subscribed.

Agree with this, shouldnt be longer than that, 10 days is ridiculous.

Was going to say alot, but idc. This is a game and it's not real. The real things I have are more important, than a fake house. So I say screw this fake game. I am not playing much anymore anyway and probably won't be giving them my money much longer I have better things to spend it on like gas and real food. When it's not fun I can't and won't waste my time and it's not fun or very fair. Food is good irl, having gas in my car and a roof over my head irl more important than this dumb s@#t

OP's lack of reading comprehension is both shocking and unsurprising.

I got me bridge. I have a place to call home now where I can count me millions of gil.

So many people incapable of reading these days

Not a single option to bid on any house. Free Company or Single Person houses. I click the placard, it only gives me an option to "view lottery results". No bidding option.

Nice housing system you got there, Squeenix.

The houses you are clicking on, if they say the number ticket that won, are winners from the previous lottery that had to be fixed during maintenance last night.

During the first lottery, the one that had bugs, it is understandable that all if not most of the houses were bid on and thus, will show the winners now, after the fix. All if not most of the houses you see listed at the teleport, are houses that people should have won during the bugged lottery, but are only now being correctly announced as winners after the fix.

The listings all show on the teleport with prices but you have to click the individual house to see if it has been won already or not.

If all the houses do not allow new bidding, you must wait until the next lottery starts and check any plots listing prices, click on the individual house's placard and see if it is available to bid on and how many current entries have already bid.

Any house that does not allow current bidding, but does not show a winner ticket number, will be available for bidding during next lottery session.

Yeah I felt like 1 week is more then enough time for folks to claim their houses. Plus I figure that their priority would be to get next lottery up and running asap just in case another issue pops up so they don't have shut it down for another two half months.
