Patch 3.3 Housing Info

[Nezerius]

Housing being so limited is precisely why it needs to be priced higher. If there was housing for everyone then it wouldn't matter what they price it at. They could make it free for all I care.

Housing can be both a prestige, limited system, while also being a feature that's accessible to other players. It'd just require two different systems:

1. The current system, houses placed in a ward, where the player will have neighbours, as well as other players that can visit these wards to see a neighbourhood. This would be the prestige system, Allowing players to show off their wealth.
2. An instanced area that's limited to just one house and one garden. A system that expands on the private chamber one. Have it so players on someone's friend list, or players in the current party/alliance can visit it.

Tell that to SE a couple years back. This is what many thought we were getting with personal housing. Instead we ended up with this extremely limited mess.

Exactly. We also ended up with this mess because SE told us we would get "personal housing" annnnnnnnnd technically; we did not. What we GOT was, leftover unsold FC housing! So when those plots went "public", they were, at least on a Legacy Server like Hyperion, GONE in days! And folks like me were furious. Reason why is a medium FC plot PRIOR to us finding this out was 2 mil. When it went live and being sold as "personal housing" it was 20 mil!

Needless to say it was not well received by players and we felt slighted because the idea we were given was, we as non FC house purchasers were getting our own little wards and areas separate from the FC wards. Not unsold FC left overs. -.-

I've already pretty much given up hope. Mmmm.

There are no official patch notes yet, all this info is from the latest Live Letter.

Oh wow, they went down. I can easily afford the first class plot (L size) at maximum price in 3.3, and I don't even try all that much to make gil. The rich are going to snatch them up quick on my server.

[Zojha]

Oh wow, they went down.

I'm somewhat surprised.

I could, like, actually afford a small one now as non-crafter. Not decorate it yet, mind you, but...yeah.

[Avlon]

So excited!!! Can afford a medium already, might just shoot for a large if I can get one as soon as the patch is done.

[MomomiMomi]

Wow. Well, congrats to everyone who doesn't have much gil. Set your alarms!
