Stop Promoting Housing if You Can't Deliver to All

[Kaminto]

I feel Larges should be FC only, with their being only 72 larges in a brand new housing area they will be the first to go, it doesn\\'t help that most players orchestrate their plans via discord or reddit (or any other external means) to have their cake and eat it too, i wouldn\\'t even be surprised if most have gone the RMT route, i just can\\'t believe that in less than an hour, all of Shirogane is full (Gilgamesh) and 90% of the players have already locked their houses, why even have a devaluation timer at this point heh oh well within a few weeks the Shirogane housing area will be a ghost town with most of the housing frozen in time with empty garden plots and neglected chocobo stables and they will be on the reddit housing market for profit cause 1 billion gil just isn\\'t enough for most players...

there is no incentive. you can work hard save gil forever there are no houses available.

and honestly enix you can't expect people to earn 4-10x the amount of gil for a house from a flipper to finally earn that house?

why should i play anymore? i did everything by the book and never purchased RMT gil in game and now i can't get housing at all and nowhere in the near future?

i have no reason to craft or gather anymore if you just leave us for dead and you lose one player in the community putting things up on the market board for people

how are people going to stay along with your game if you allow loop holes to remain? do you have an idea of what message that sends to the community as a whole and people who continually exploit the integrity of this game?

Somehow SE thinks they justified themselves by creating apartments but that does not help FC's that want to utilize the workshop and have a place to gather with their members. Letting individuals but Larges is a colossal waste of space, most don't know what to do with all that estate and just throw furnishings down to free up space in their inventory

I agree I saved up over the pass few months getting excited that the new housing areas were coming, to only log in and there all gone!! Nothing is left!! This isn't fair whay promote something when only a few of your paying customers cant even enjoy it!!!!!

[Killjoy]

This was a complete and utter fail. I was sure that the new housing would be full, but none of the old plots in the other three areas were available either.
So funny that SE recently celebrated having millions of subscribers and here I am ready to close two accounts because our FC doesn't have fair access to content we shouldn't have any trouble obtaining after our hard work of farming and crafting to earn the gil to buy it.

Something is broke. Unfortunately, SE doesn't have a great track record of listening to their customers.

I nearly broke down into tears, in the 4 years or so I've been playing this game I never had enough to buy a house, I started fresh on Siren, ground up every single quest, and penny I could get my hands on, and I was looking forward to getting a house in Kugane since everything else was sold out. I waited at the gate, like everyone else, to log into the servers when they came back up, the instant I hit the button to log in, 'crash'. And it kept happening no matter what I tried. There is no means of checking patch integrity and apparently my patch had completely corrupted my client I had to completely reinstall the game because of it and my FC officer who /was/ able to log in told me within TWO MINUTES of the server going live, everything was gone. I have never been so disgusted, infuriated, or upset in my life over a game, I left World of Warcraft for this, I don't consider garrisons to be effective player housings, it's STILL a better idea and more reliable than this system has been.

Fought through a rapid-fire series of launcher crashes (like, five or six in a row) to get on, only to get shoved into a queue of more people than there are houses on my entire server.

By the time I actually got on, everything was gone.

FEELS SO GOOD TO LOSE OUT BECAUSE OF A BAD INTERFACE HUH

Don't forget the new housing items on the mog station.

Stop basing housing availability on confines of “housing space.” Stop basing housing availability based on who has the fastest internet connection when a patch goes live.

I'm able to play online during my off times when I'm working - where I work I have access to a network backbone that literally gives me in excess of megabytes of bandwidth.....insane speeds.

And yet I still landed at 700 in the queue this morning.

I was only assisting my FC to get a plot....still didn't happen.

Internet connection doesn't mean nothing....its all dumb luck sadly.

I'm in favor of a 1 plot/personal house/fc house/account/server idea however.... or instanced.....but beyond that..this system will continue to drive people away. Especially when faced with those who own multiple plots across wards on a single given server...something like that should be dealt with.

I can get reasons behind it..but its just greedy and selfish.

Worst housing in any game EVER. SE uses the excuse that people want a "neighborhood" community feel. Well guess what SE, All the wards on my server are full and I seldom see anyone riding around, speaking to others, visiting, etc. It's like a ghost town in the neighborhoods. Housing here needs to be fixed asap if they want to keep subs. If I didn't have my medium in the beds, I would be gone with the wind.
