Housing

[Punainen]

Please, please, PLEASE do not have a limit to how many players are able to have a house. I've seen it done in every MMO that ever had housing, and its EXTREMELY unfair.

Absolutely every player should be able to have a house.

Hmm, I agree

[RoxyLalonde]

I don't think they will limit it. I have heard things before about them limiting specific areas though. So 100 people in this town and 100 in that etc....

This is what Wada-san said he was worried about as Yoshi P was talking about it.

Yoshi P said that it will be sort of instanced... so if one area fills up they can add more and not run out.

But you will have to pick and buy your plot of land (different sizes available) so I figure that if someone gets the plot that you wanted, you will have to wait until they make another instance available before you can try to buy it again.

I have never seen a single game that limits how many people can have a house. I see no reason why would they do that. The housing zones will likely be instances.

Then you haven't played the games I've played. I've never seen it NOT limited. Plus, before 1.0 launch, I'm sure people would have said we wouldn't have the ward limits that we have either.

Sounds like exactly the same as the system in Lord of the Rings Online. Each instanced area would hold a couple of Kinship (Linkshell) Houses, a half-dozen large houses (with a higher rent) and a dozen small houses. The area also had NPCs to access to your Vault (ie Retainer) and a shop for vending goods.

It's ok and it ensures everyone has a house, but leaves the residential areas feeling like ghost towns - more so after a few months when the population dies down.

I do like the sound of the Choco Ranch though! Kinda hoping there's a special type of storage to replace the Armoire that can keep *all* Uni/Unt items in it.

I dont think EQII limited how many people could have houses either. Each house door let you choose whose house you wanted to go into. They were all instanced.
