Thread: 4.2 Housing Update

A German website asked SE if people will lose their old houses with the new system and SE said that they wont answer that question right now..so this reads much more that its still possible that people might lose it because if they dont, why would they not just say it, especially if its true and Yoshida already stated this in the liveletter.

Also they did wait with the housing informations because they said that they dont want people to get ready for it..no information from yesterday hints at something that people can prepare. The only thing might be the restriction to FC and four members but if that is the information than they already gave it out way to early since people can prepare that..so either they went against their own words and already told us everything or the most important information is still locked up..which would be: what happens with the old houses? If they would have told us that people will lose it, they could have tried to sell them until the patch so not telling them would mean that they keep their houses thus prevents them from getting too much Gil out of this. This just feels like a good plan from their side and would also explain why they need a whole website for this.

(And lets not forget that the housing timer did not exist from the beginning too and people bought their houses with the knowledge that they can keep it. Yet when the timer came, every house was put under that rule. So it would be only fair if that new rule will be used on old houses too, otherwise the timer should have just been for newer houses.)
