Why isn't housing priced higher? (why is housing random luck)

[Felis]

How about limiting purchasing of one house to one account? Yes, account. Not just a character, but account.

One house to one character on the same server

Easy fix: make the housing fully instanced instead of wards. everyone can have a house. maybe leave free company housing to wards. (like BDO for example). But then they complain on not having enough data to handle it..

They are already working on it
Apartment houses (rooms for 500 players each apartment house)

You know, the GMs have said that reselling a house is a bannable offense...report them for it.

I think GM were talking about reseling a house in exchange for real money :/

No you can get banned from selling a house and advertising it on PF. It happened before. Just have to report them.

well, i'll get my little fingers ready to report then

And also housing is suposed to be somewhat exlusive,no? And a huge gil sink.

Fine, in that case, why should someone who does not have a house pay the same sub that someone who does ? If we can't all have access to the same content because some of it is "exclusive" we should get a discount on the sub. After all that's what they did for the collector edition of the game, you pay more, you get the exclusive items, you don't want / can't afford them ? you pay the cheaper edition with no bonus.
(the big difference being you don't need the mog doll to have access to all the feature this time.....)

it is reportable if they abandon the plot (you can't really resell it, only abandon it) for gil

Prices do not need to be higher.

A limit on how many houses a single account can own needs to be put in place.

This must be a big server issue. Cause all us little servers never see this issue. On Zalera it took weeks for all the houses to sell that became available durning the inactivity purge that started.

If you think 45 million is too low for a large you've been playing the money game too long. I pass out 30k to low lv players and it's more than they know what to do with.

Birdy, you stalker!

i think the biggest problem is solo players being able to buy houses. At present I'm in the same bout as some others and i COULD by all rights go buy 3 large houses with my main and a large for my guild and that's 4 houses gone to one player with this limited amount of plots, but I wont. Plots should have never been made to be able to become personal houses. Should have been a completely separate feature.

I don't feel bad for solo players not being able to get a house but i DO for the guilds that all work together to get one just to see they cant and miss out on the multiple features available for them.

Just out of curiosity, I have a medium in Mist at the moment, and if someone I know grabs a large plot, I'll be living there and will no longer need my plot. Now it's in a current ward, so it's obvious I'm not buying and reselling, but would that mean that I'm still not allowed to sell it? Would people actually prefer that I wait out 45 days (from whenever the counter restarts)? Or are we directing this solely to people who are buying for the sake of reselling?

I am fine with waiting it out, but it seems like a shame to keep an abandoned plot (especially in Mist) when someone out there could have one.
