Wonder how long it will be before all the houses are bought :P

As the title says, one of the main attractions for me is i can finally buy a medium house but i wonder how long they will last before they are all taken up.

You'll have a little time I think - it's launching when most people are at work anyway . The server is a big draw for new characters levelling quickly rather than transfers alone but then there's no gil cap on those transferring too...

I've got my eyes set on a plot in Lavender Beds, only a small house. Eyed my fave spot up :)

Still it's over 2.1k plots across just three areas which is a lot... With a new area with the expansion!

New housing isn't being released any time soon anyway. That's a later patch later on.

Yeah but the others will be available at server launch. Depends which you prefer...

rather hope when the new ward open goes as the rumor stated open to FC first before personal people as on my realm more then half of them are already personal owned

I just hope they don't all go to personal plots. Partially because I will start an fc there, and partially because they just need them more in general, and fcs are having it much harder here to buy houses since they need to level up first while private people can just go and buy them

agreed like to get a house for my FC but can't as again most are personal owned and worst is looking through some of the FC ones and the leader has their own personal house too like one the FC got a Large house and the owner has a personal Large too like really he couldn't got gotten a small if he wanted a house so bad

People are just greedy stacking up properties on alts knowing people are just waiting for the one. Still don't understand why they're not account limited.

I've been saving up gil so I can buy myself a small plot on Omega. Don't hate me for that!

I'll be patient and wait for shirogane. Should the worst come to happen and have all the small plots snatched away from under my nose (unlikely!) I'll just get one on any of the other districts. I doubt it will be as apocalyptic as people are thinking it will be!

Yeah but this is over 2.1K plots - to put that in perspective that's half the entire active player population of the smaller US servers (and a third of the smaller EU servers)You'd need all these people taking an emergency day off work/school and logging in at the same time. If that actually happened, this game would be beyond godly :)

lol true enough mostly the thing SE need to do make it 1 house per account cause one of the bigger issues as you said all these people got to own a house plus have alts who own a house too

There is 2100 plots, and i think the average active player base on the EU server was said to be 7000? Not sure at all so don'T cite me on that. It doesn't sound too bad but i really can't guess how many people will go there for housing so it's really fully up to chance how fast housing will be gone, while there is a chance everything sells out instantly there also is a large chance though that it's gonna be a little slower. I'll still make use of my grat internet and tons of preparations to just rush everyting though since i don't want to risk not getting the large fc house my fc has been working for this last month, that I've been constantly sitting at the retainer bell and crafting for u.u

either way they should open it to FC first and foremost least for a few hours or a day giving those without a house a chance over those who gonna rush in with mains and alts to buy a house or 2

Also when they do open if you see someone in PF selling a house report them for it that'll stick it to these ones who buy one on an alt just to try and sell it for more gil

You're generalizing. I don't want fcs with little resources to buy all the small houses and leave people like me hanging without recourse.

Well I have a day off and will be in as soon as the transfer allows me. You're right, I dont trust it but at the same time the huge amount of plots makes me think I'm worrying way too much. Look I'll just be relieved when I have my plot, especially as I have one small house in mind :)

Account limited is unfair to people who pay full price for a sub for multiple characters on multiple data centers. World limited, yes. I have a FC home on Ultros, but what if I wanted to get married and have a home on Odin. Better yet, Omega. The land's there, my partner is there, and they dont want to pay for a transfer to Ultros.

I appreciate what you're saying - I guess I was really thinking about the same world as I wasn't considering people playing different characters on different servers. There are players that own three or four properties each on the same world and literally have nothing in them. And that's a bit too much!

Here's what I predict will happen.

Most of the plots will be bought, if not all somewhat early.

After about 3 months, quite a few of them will free up again.

one thing be nice is a timer for houses that are close to being reclaimed that way don't got to sit around looking ever 30min or so to see one did in fact open up

I'm kinda hoping I'm getting a small plot from Mists... coming from Balmung FC's private room is the biggest thing I've ever managed to have and it's kinda sad. Man have I wanted my own yard for ages. And a garden.. sweet, sweet garden.
