You'll see random people around that you don't know throughout the entire game O.o

yes i know :) but it be nice if we can just have the area for friends but i guess overall it does not matter. Seeing how i be more busy inside the house then outside and friends sometime don't last in online games.

If you want a company neighbourhood, you could always demand that your rich friends buy up the whole instance and then sell them to your poorer friends as they get the funds. Or get the whole company together and go buy out an instance at the same time (housing raid!). Even if a couple of houses in 'your' instance are bought by randoms, I'm sure they wouldn't mind moving if you asked them, being as all instances are identical (aside from the people in them). Perhaps you might even make new friends to join or ally with your company?

Until we see it in action though, I'm mostly basing my opinion on it on what I've experienced in other games. Not sure of the ins and outs of re-selling, if there's going to be rent, etc. (one thing I liked in LotRO was the teleport to house function.. it meant you could have your personal house in the Shire and your guild house in Bree and hence be able to get around a lot quicker - that's just one argument for not having your personal and guild house in the same instance).

For those of you concerned about land limits, or players running out of available land to build on, remember way back in Letter from the Producer LIVE 3, Yoshi-P mentioned the following about housing:

0:59:26 To prevent disputes over land, housing areas will be instanced. After the maximum number of houses are sold in one instance, players will be asked to purchase land in a different one. More instances will be added as necessary.

So don't worry! :)

not only that, ev3n one size sold out a new instance will open, said in somewhere in live letter too...
but, it's a mystery how it works...

He IS in the loop! Good Cactuar! *pets Hvinire*.....ouch.

Now, can you tell us why your people started gathering around Aetheryte camps near the end of 1.0? They made a rather convenient means to death warp after a leve.

You can try to buy all plots of lands of one Instance with your fellows, there you have your own small city.

given the expected costs, that's a stretch. not to mention we don't even know if it's possible to pick from specific instances
