Please implement properity tax

[SundayTrash]

With extreme lack of housing and refusal to add new ward base on generic format instead of server damand. Its time we need to disencourage ppl from owning a house by implementing properity tax. Withour implementing taxes how else would the 3 states of Eorzea maintenance their land, gil does not grow on trees; so how does 1-3 mill a month sound.

The housing problem will be solved by simply meeting the demand with more houses (as they are planning starting in 3.3), not by punishing those that already have access to the feature.

Q4: We have the auto reclamation this month, but can you please let us know about future addition of land?

A4: We have confirmed that we will be increasing the amount of land for existing housing areas in Patch 3.3. After this we’re planning to introduce mansion type housing, and housing in the Ishgard area. These two are being developed in parallel, but in order to meet everyone’s demand, we will implement the mansion-type housing as a first priority. Currently it’s being planned that one mansion will be able to hold 512 residences.

Head in sand

Fixed that for you. They have run the cash shop for awhile now. They have released an expansion pack. Have you seen anything that implies that the they will be able to provide for the current player base. How long have they been working on this? How many times have they failed to provide a decent system for the players to play in?

Not only that the MANSION, is probably a glorified Free company room. We already know it will not have outside space because they mention they have to fix gardening to make it work. I am sure someone with not much effort could post half a dozen housing fail comments.

They should have to sit in front of a camera and answer questions about the housing system like a corrupt politician. Instead of the fluff they give for live letters. We don't need to see fond memories. We need to see answers and why they have failed so horribly.

Lets not forget also they have promised that stuff at least 6 months roughly.

I'm curious, what would you like them to do beyond increasing the amount of houses avalible? My understanding is that the biggest complaint with the housing system is that the demand far outweighs the supply (which is at least a sign that the feature is designed well enough, that so many people want to join in). The answer to this is to increase the supply.

I would like to point out that a mansion in Japanese pretty much means small apartment.

Will never happen. You're insane if you think 1-2m a month for owning a house is acceptable.

New wards, and housing zone will come in later patches. Then apartment style accommodation.

No matter what, not everyone will get a house.

This sort of thing was one of the worst aspects of the housing system in Lord of the Rings Online. You bought your home but then basically had to pay rent on it too. Besides, I doubt this would do anything to discourage the players with a large bankroll. It would really just hurt those on the borderline of house ownership who are lucky enough to get a house as is.

The salt is real. That figure is completely unacceptable & fails to take into account players who may the short breaks. We deserve to let our subscription lapse without being punished!

[Noshpan]

While I may have given up on the notion of ever owning my own home (in game and in real life), I have no desire to see others punished who want one.

I personally don't mind a TAX should come from Retainers of owners of private housing. But really 100k a month. Would be enough to keep only people that want one having one.

FC house chest if Fc house.
