Only 1536 apartments per server?

[birdy_reene]

let me spell it out, in more blunt terms. Housing was added later on, and its safe to say it was meant to be a limited commodity. If you cant get a house because of your server choices, you traded privileges, you traded faster Q times for no housing space. Your choice, not SE's. Don't blame them for a choice you made.

Already said this in the other thread about this same topic, but I hope people with personal housing have enough decency to not buy the apartments and leave them to people who don't have their own houses yet.

Silly entitled city folk XD (big server pun) I've said it and ill say it a million more times since SE has made it fairly clear they don't give a hoot about Balmung, gilg, and Sagittarius's self made housing problem. just offer a few days of player transfers, and don't allow transfers to those servers during that time. If the player base doesn't take that opportunity. Its on them not SE.

I'd only be impressed if I'm able to walk up to my room and not be instanced at the door. -_-

it's already well known how many houses there's going to be. LL/Gridania/Ul'dah are all getting 1 building each with 512 rooms.

Like we didnt knew about the sorry track record of XIV housing systems.

From the creators of:
"Launch: Our server info tells us that population has average 30 million gil when you do the math along the bots and RMTs"
"fix 1: more houses doesnt do it"
"fix 2: so inverting the maps still doesnt do it"
"fix 3: Holy shit house owners are actually active and our solution went to shit in just 1 reset so we had to remove it cause it was a bad idea from the start"
we bring you "Fix 4: What do you mean there is more than 5k players on our servers?"

So... did they actually say they were only going to have 1536 apartments per district per server? Or is this just a number people randomly generated? I didn't get to watch the live letter.

Instead of playing WoW they should have played LOTRO. In LOTRO you get entire neighborhoods with NPCs merchants and the bank, and trees, falls, mountains, fountains, etc. entirely instanced. Exactly like we have here, and whenever one instance is full (all the houses are sold) in LOTRO another one is created automatically.

And as for WoW, Blizzard copied Asheron Call 2 for their game, one of Turbine's MMOs. Which has always bugged me when I played LOTRO players who played WoW often said "this looks like WoW" when it was WoW that looked LOTRO.
