Purchase Land Timer

[Gula]

I like and hate the timer. Timer means less flipping, but at the same time people can still afk bot. Lessening the timer to 6-8 max hours would help. Or at least stop the 30 hour camps where players refuse to eat or sleep because there aren't enough houses to go around. And even still, many are just nabbing that ugly Small to be able to go to reddit, spend 150m for a Large to instantly transfer.

And Larges are scarce enough as is so "just transfer : ^)" is not a simple fix. In fact, I brought up a possible solution for that here:

One of my friends had a mental breakdown after spending days with the stupid placards and losing over again against bots, SE don't care about the situation, the "we are listening" and "we are looking into it" is just a standart industry for "we don't care enough to fix it" or "that will cost money and we hate to spend money".
Every other game in the market who have a housing system does it better, even Wildstar understood it better.

I hate to use forum post count as judgement but I'm going to assume you missed all the times the devs themselves have responded here on the forums about topics. Not to mention responses when time for fanfest and live letters.

And yet, most of those responses are just to PR and damage control, the few times they actually did something they just did a "band-aid" solution that only changes one problem to another.
Don't fool your self with kind words of "we hear you", the only real motivator is sub count, if start to drop they will start solving stuff in a heartbeat, until there they will delay every change that envolve more costs.

I for one hopes for a lasting solution but for now all we can do is suggest and wait. While it is probably true that the devs try as much as they can to provide content, in this context housing content while minimizing cost, this is probably because there are other aspects of the game that need financial resources. That being said, i believe that the devs are truly aware about the condition of the housing aspect of the game and are working on solving it. I'm very excited with the upcoming expansion as well as the patches that follow because if there are big changes to the game a new expansion is definitely the best way to implement those changes.
