[Suggestion] Solving the "Housing Problem"

[DataAngelis]

1 Plot per player is no where near strict enough.. IMO it should be 1 per Account!
allow all your account characters to access it and use it's facilities.. the fact players are allowed to own more than one is complete BS and punishes new players that should have access to all the games meta content without restriction and expanding wards to an infinite value. spawnable once a ward main and sub divisions are filled.
It's not like Square don't have the funds to create the a server infristructure to maintain this and take your thumbs outta your arse and get this done!

as someone who just got a medium house(FC) and is planning on moving it when shirogane hits, the reason we aimed for a medium was because smalls themselves are CRAMPED for more than one person. With 15 people in a room, smalls feel tiny.

So Communities are up on the PTR in WildStar, and what the hell, SE. Get your act together!

Just not quite functional yet. It will be interesting to see how well it works out with 5x the outdoor limit loading at once for most people.

Well they have already prefaced it by stating that people with weaker computers will likely experience slower loading times going into a Community with a large number of decor. TBH that doesn't bother me in the slightest though, because the amazing possibilities of this feature far outweigh an inconvenience of having to wait a minute for all the decor to load. xD

How about giving a tldr of what this actually is? I'm not really going to invest my time watching videos about a game I don't intend to play, and I doubt I'm the only one.

Players will be able to link several of their personal plots together to make a "neighborhood" sort of. Which would be really great here. A lot of people don't want instanced housing because they want to have a neighborhood around them.

This sounds great. Also I'm getting the impression that housing is quite central to Wildstar. That certainly isn't the case in FFXIV, at least not yet anyway.

Housing is pretty much what carries Wildstar anymore. It's hands down the best housing system of any MMO.

A massive plot that links 5 individual plots (which can be built up separately from your own house, or you can import your housing plot directly to it). The skybox, music, ground terrain, etc are all customizable per plot, and the "connecting pathway" parts have their own separate customization for each. It can be built upon seamlessly, with each plot having its own 2500 outside/2500 inside decor limit, plus 2500 for the connecting pathway.

Oh and you can connect your alts to the Community plot if you want, so you can either choose to link up with other players or build something entirely on your own. With the sheer size of it, you can get pretty close to creating your own zone.
