Worst housing system in history

[Bunnycake]

youre making excuses for a multi Billion dollar company not being able to sort out executive programs to make sure all patches are correctly put out and to make sure their customers are satisfied ?

Before you type something make sure you have proof of what you're saying

We're still waiting on you to show proof. You keep demanding people to show proof yet you never once did.

No I'm pointing out that no matter what anyone does people like you will whinge, therefor invalidating ANY actual point you might have.

2 people out of millions think a multi million dollar company should be able to deny people an in game feature even if everyone has to pay to get access to the game is laughable. Its undoubtedly the worst system in in game in history . How can a multi Billion dollar corporation NOT have enough money to allocate to upgrade to the best servers in order to allow more space for housing plots ?? 100 wards 200 plots ??

I've worked for one of those in the past, their latest earnings 72.3 billion USD p.a.

They only care about image and shareholders. The trick to keeping one's share prices high is to do the absolute bare minimum to grow customers while doing the utmost to maximise dividends.

Spending more on housing won't grow new licenses by any meaningful amount, and the few who unsubscribe for that reason is small.

Most will not unsubscribe.. the idea is fixing this to a large scale WILL basically allow this to be a brand new feature where everyone has access to housing and they can legit advertise as that being part of the game not a fake housing where 1 out of every 10,000 player can have a house. and doing better investment grows better profit due to more people actively playing and more new players joining. Housing is literally the only flaw i see in the game everything else they got spot on.

As people who do enjoy housing, we'd both like to think that, but I'd guess their hard cold metrics on what new players do when they join the game paint the CEO and board another picture.

They'll keep doing the absolute minimum to retain the number of houses at a set percentage of active players. Have you noticed how we seem to magically get new housing out of thin air after each burst of new subscribers?

so what youre saying is if 20-30% of the playerbase is frustrated its not enough for a change until 99% of the playerbase is frustrated and they go down the sink only then we can expect changes from the CEO

You can only maintain that level of frustration for so long before people get tired of dealing with it and just leave.

exactly there has to be a limit. Lets be honest this housing issue is bigger then they are reporting . Thats why its taking so long because they know this is embarrassing but they wont admit it as it will damage reputation. Lets keep it real thats why its pushed back 2 updates .
