Nope you didn't add enough plots SE...

[Final-Fantasy]

It comes down to money, so, add a third ward selection to the current page, So we'd have: Plots 1 to 30, Plots 31 to 60 (as we currently have with Wards 1 to 12) now add Plots 61 to 90.

Make the page with Plots 61 to 90 only purchasable with a new service from the Mog Station, set up like the retainer service so you select an available Plot from the list, depending on size you could charge players like $2 extra per month for a Cottage, $4 for a Medium and $8 (just example) for a Mansion, once a ward is full the next opens up. This will make it so each plot will get used, people that just want a plot will get one for however long they pay, if you stop paying you loose access to it and its added back to the pool to buy.

Please don't go on about how its not fair, some of us pay more than that for a bunch of retainers. Its called options, 10.000.000 players and only 190.080 house plots total in this game across 66 worlds. Why this isn't even an option, just imagine the revenue this could make. You don't have to use any services, its your choice.

I almost never post on forums, but this made me want to.

Excuse me but, why should someone pay real money for something everyone else got cause they got lucky for free? What kind of a solution is that?

Everyone is paying the same sub, thus everyone should get the same fair treatment as long they put the same effort. Housing is a feature that they advertise, which means everyone should be able to get a house once they meet the conditions required for it, in this case pay gil. What you are suggesting is just them cashing out on a problem they created themselves. It's like next level fraud. If you wanna make housing for real money, then it's only fair that ALL housing should be for real money.

They don't wanna add more wards cause of server? Then remove all the features that the housing offers which are Workshop, gardening, Vendors and so, put those things in instanced area that everyone can access and use. Now that would make the only reason you want a house is just purely a place you wanna hangout at and decorate.

I would happily pay for a plot if I had a chance to. I'm still hoping for a system comparable to what they did with apartments, only for houses of different sizes, maybe even including a small front side for gardens. I don't need my house to be outside in the open for everyone to see. It's nice, sure - but not mandatory.

Well for a start its an idea for people who actually don't care to pay, its a choice.

Its a solution as they need more money to have more equipment to handle this system? if not, then go a head and add more Wards?

It wouldn't affect you either way as you wouldn't be paying as your not interested in that kind of system.

What if this system was in place and i decided to release some of my houses, and I own multiple houses on multiple characters, and elected to then pay with my subscription the extra cost, that would free up some plots for others to buy with Gil for example.

Are you kidding me? F2P games that had housing had been able to create a better system for housing and had server running fine. SE is basically charging you for extra retainers, selling tons of cosmetics on mog station, skip potions "catch up with friends (lol)", boost potions, and now even retainers potions! Not to mention all those campaigns they did that I'm pretty sure by what I saw, it got them tons of money.
Do I want a house? hell yea I do. Do I have one? Nope and I refuse to pay x10 the price to someone to get a house as I should be able to pay the same as they did to get theirs. Would I pay money for a house? Nope, I already pay them sub and I bought some stuff off mog station. I think I supported them enough based on my budget.

The only thing that MIGHT make me consider paying for a house is if I can get it right after payment, it's permanent and I won't lose it, pay only once, and I can customize EVERY little detail of it and is bigger than L size.

Found the undercover SE employee!

Or just make housing instanced like everyone, literally everyone has requested or eventually come to conclusion to.
The housing situation is as bad as SE turning a blind eye to people requesting Hilda's hairstyle for YEARS- since HW release. Only to be ignored- Let's face it, the NA & EU forums are ignored entirely by devs

[Phaedris]

Should hit them in their wallet. Money is the only language all companies understand. If housing is not fixed in 6.0, fixed as in every player can get a house, then don't buy the expansion.

That or find a player with a few million in Square Enix stock, and get them to sell it all. That's how we got ARR created to begin with.
