[Housing] Question from someone not as lucky.

Any chance they'll open wards to players who NEVER owned a house on their account.

Man I've played this game since 1.0, but still haven't ever gotten my own house. Living on the streets like a thug, keeping various furniture in retainers. Sure there are apartments but I just want to decorate outside you know.

The whole thing really bums me every expansion and patch... I sit on these houses that I see I go up to them they are taking awhile or not ready to buy. I camp it, next day, not ready to buy...Camp it some more...Not ready. Log off, come back next day its gone. lol

I see these exclusive to FC and only transfer to houses in the new wards and I'm like gg. I hope one day I'll own a house cause it sucks to just not own one ever after playing this game for years.

You take the old houses people transfer from, playing the placard lottery with potential neighbours.

I've been doing that and still have 0 luck lol...

if you have given up make your own fc get it to the rank that you can buy a piece of Land (I think rank 6) then just purchase one from one of the new wards there tons of smalls available

buy many warping tickets, check multiple locations for available plots, spend 5 mins in one plot and just warp around other prospects every 5 mins., check goblet 1st.

Theres plenty of plots left in the new wards on my server which will most likely be opened next week or the following. And you don't have to live on the streets- apartments do exist until you get a house of your own.

EU servers have some lefties if timer is up, I just helped a friend to get a crap house in goblet and then he just relocated to his dream spot even it was also a small plot.

I know apartments are a thing. I said that in OP.
The fact is that ive always wanted to decorate outside and even do contests for like housing. But that's not going to ever happen for me lol. I've been streaming my ass standing in the wards buying a house. so yes ive been living in the streets.

But yeah just frustrated. Like really frustrated - I feel like SE lets me have good rng rolls for the mounts so I wont slit my wrists waiting for a house lol.

Edit:

I got the house and cried. lol

I doubt SE will ever prioritize players over FCs when new wards are opened. Airships and submersibles are one of the few forms of FC only content and they require a house so SE wants to give FCs a reasonable first chance at the houses.

Sorry this is a source of frustration to you right now. I remember going through it while waiting on the moratorium to be lifted in 4.2. Hopefully you'll get lucky with one of the houses on Leviathan currently available in Mist and Goblet 1-18 (a few of those houses have devalued at least once already so should be off their timers very soon) so you won't have to fight the crowds that will be waiting when the moratorium on 19-21 is lifted in the few weeks.

CONGRATULATIONS...PICTURES ('',)
