So SE.. Hows your new wards working out?

[AriaXIV]

So as predicted.. multiple times, buy -alot- of people on every single server. SE, you changing the systems did not work -again-. Like how many more times are we going to have to tell you, You need to add personal player housing. Because just look, within the first day of the lifting of personal housing limitations. All wards were full again and we're up to 18 wards, Don't you understand this is gonna have to end eventually?

They really need to just add more than a few wards LOL

Oh look, another "cry me a river" topic from Balmung. But to answer to your question:

So SE.. Hows your new wards working out?

Fantastic. What i see wast majority of players and servers were extremely happy with the last housing patch.

on every single server

Not even remotely true. Some servers got all houses sold quicker than others but i'm sure with next ward expansion everyone will be fine... aside of you guys on Balmung. Looks like we are cursed to see your topics every single day. Even if SE gives you 100 wards i already see new topics "more large houses", "more Shirogane wards"... the fact is you have a culture of entitlement and complaining. But with the last patch you lost big part of support from other servers and now you are almost alone in your "fight", like some weird version of Don Quixote against windmills.

Oh look, another "cry me a river" topic from Balmung.

Oh look, another white knight defending a flawed system just because it happens to work out for them.

There's still houses available on my server (4 just in my ward alone, granted it's Goblet). I'd say it has been the most effective housing patch yet. Could more still be done? Of course. But this was a decent start to fixing the supply/demand issue.

Unfortunately, when it comes to servers such as Balmung, unless they lock it permanently or find better ways to get people to leave then there's never, ever going to be enough houses to meet the demand on servers like that. Solution? Don't roll a Balmung character, or simply leave for another server. It's easier said than done since people have put down roots and all, but...it is what it is.

Empty plots here, unless your Balmung (lol) you can get a house. I literally bought an fc member a house so I could get some neighbors yesterday.

The update, while not perfect, has been very effective.

There are clearly only a few servers which are just so highly populated or overpopulated that are having supply trouble. There is even a census thread tracking daily updates to available houses with numerous servers reporting hundreds of houses still open.

It is safe to say if they took a general survey of reception from players across all servers, it would likely return as mostly positive. I have already met so many people who have switched to my own server for housing opportunities. Housing was an important priority to them so they came and got what they wanted. Now they are happy campers with no regrets.

sure i like the thing changes for not able to sell but there could been an schedule when its open than everyone knows its THAT time everyone can start a war for buy it, fastest who takes wins oki, that i can live with and say gratz you had fastest finger buttons for click buy lol

Bots will always be faster. You're advocating for giving bots every advantage?
