Thread: 4.2 housing system update and what's wrong with it

the current houses would stay. They would just stop adding in Wards and start giving people access to instanced housing. After they purchase and decorate their instanced house, they can transfer to a plot in a ward, the small and medium house would have to be redecorated, the large should easily transfer decorations from instanced to ward housing.

Unless SE is willing to add a new ward every time the large houses sell out so anyone who wants a large house can buy one, instanced housing is the only real fix.

Exactly, very few new housing owners. Just people who keep trading around. Oh you're new? Congratulations, you now don't have access to a part of the game.

The issue isn't an issue. A person relocating is always leaving a plot behind.

If you want the ability to relocate, buy any house you can and wait for a prime location to open up

A person relocated before you could buy the house? Find out where they came from and camp that plot.

On my server we have a lot of empty houses both small and medium. If a house means so much that you can't wait, move to a less busy server.

I wish instanced housing was an option, but SE doesn't seem to be working on it.
