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

4.2 note:

"Players will be permitted to own only one private and one free company estate per World per service account"

I read that as the person purchasing the FC house will not be able to be in an FC with a house on any other character on that server, not that no one in the FC will be able to be in another FC with a house.

And this is the problem with this. The specifics weren't given and no one has any clue what is going on. I get it, with the finite housing resource, they don't want anyone planning ahead to take advantage of the situation. I support that. I don't like, as the master of a homeless FC, not knowing if I'm going to have to discharge someone from my FC simply because they have a house.

I guess we'll find out, huh?

I see your point, and could be correct. It would be very easy for a FC to get a house if that is the case - just give buying privilege to a FC member with no alts in a FC. Also, makes flipping FC with houses, very easy!
