Adressing the roots of the housing problem

[illgot]

I know there more information their supposedly withholding until patch notes/patch day

found this information

"The promised housing update will come a week after the implementation of update 4.2 and will be rather extensive. Six new wards with respective subdivisions will be added to each housing zone.

Free companies without a house will be prioritized over everyone else. There will be plots designated for free company use, and those will be exclusive to FCs with at least four members.

Individuals will be restricted from purchasing a house for a certain period of time after implementation. The team will gauge the situation and decide when to lift said restriction."

This could be a poor translation or could hint at some additional restrictions few are talking about.

I am a little paranoid about the week between 4.2 and the housing update. I suspect that it is indeed a full week of having those new wards locked and everyone being blocked from transferring or buying houses. The paranoid in me worries that the first week will have random houses coming up on the market or have restrictions like prioritizing FCs without houses.

If all new housing wards stay locked until 5th of Feb, then no worries.

But the underlined statement has me very worried. Are mansions (L plots) going to be locked from private ownership from 4.2 on? It sounds like they want to keep mansions FC only and that will impact any private owner trying to transfer to a mansion.
