Fix Balmung's Housing Problem

[Asheloux]

There is a serious problem with housing on Balmung. There are multiple "dead" plots where people who have unsubscribed have a house they don't use. People are selling their small plots for almost 6 times what they are worth. It's not fair to the free companies who want to expand and obtain housing who have the gil for normal plots but don't have the 6 to 8 times the amount of gil normally needed to buy a plot from a player and then buy the house itself. It's ridiculous.

Every player across all servers should have the same ability to obtain housing--we all pay the same fee to play. If that means adding more housing for the bigger servers (and Balmung is the only one I've heard of that has this issue), then the bigger/more crowded servers should have more housing. It's not favoritism for one or a few servers. It's making the field even across all servers. There are more people on these legacy servers so there should be more housing to accommodate.

It makes FC recruitment more difficult and makes us have to spend 6 times more gil for a plot. We shouldn't have to spend 35 million gil just to get someone to move out of their plot plus buy the plot from the game. Fix the housing system, SE. It's really unfair.

To be fair, it isn't really SE's fault that Balmung is as crazily overcrowded as it is.

[Asheloux]

It's a legacy server. It has players old and new on it.

balmung is not the only server have housing issue, so stop screaming for it

Stop bringing up your problem to the people that can solve it (the devs) because others have the same problem?

and make another thread of the same issue will fix the problem, I am sure of it.

ps: this issue is know by the dev and they already say they will not use the resource on it, so what is the point to make this thread ?

No it won't, but if someone is unhappy with this Situation it is better to say it instead of swallowing the we don't care Response from the dev Team.
Even if they say they will not do anything about it if people shut up after a while there will be no need for the devs to further think about this issue but as long as the topic comes up over and over again it will be clear that people are still unhappy.

Oh no! Someone made a thread in the housing forum that they literally cannot buy a house! Time for me to complain about people being upset rather than go "yeah that does blow, you're right!"

Our best and only hope is that once Heavensward hits we'll get more housing. I'm thinking that the issue is related to however they store their data, the idea that they can't make infinite neighborhoods is downright silly because it's been done before in multiple different ways. They can't keep adding things to housing without fixing the inability for people to get houses once the 1440 plots are all used up.

[Asheloux]

It is an issue that needs to be addressed. If the devs think it's not a problem, they wont do anything about it.
This forum is meant to tell the devs there is a problem--and there is.
