Private houses Twintania and spriggan

[ShadowAmate]

Hi,

I think and I hope, I'm not the unique person who is asking this to himself, but why FC has had priority on the housing? Why one person is waiting months, transferin to a new server, to have the house you want, and then they came with this. I think more than 2 weeks is enough to buy a house for a FC. So wich is the reason for not having the private houses available yet? I think it's absurd all this time that has passed. So my question is, someone knows, when private housing will be avaliabe? Because is getting to long, this is absurd, in my opinon.

There was no private housing in the beginning - only FC housing. It is normal to give FCs a chance to grab a plot first before letting personals take over. Normally the waiting time for private housing is 2 - 4 weeks after FC housing was released so it should hit soon.
As Spriggan/Twintania is still new and attracted a lot of new players who created new FCs some still struggle to get enough fonds to buy even a small plot. We, who moved there with our years of experience and our bags of gil, have a hard time understanding the struggle of fresh players and fresh FCs. Personal I think it is fair to give them two or three weeks time to settle in.
I can only talk for Spriggan but last time we checked there still lots of larges, meds and hundreds of smalls left. So even if this will be postponed another two weeks people should still be able to grab good plots (even good large plots) for their personals.

I understand what you say Nanami, but the thing is, the server hasn't been released at the same time of the housing, it has been months ago. The thing is then, the people is gonna start farm gil the same day of the housing release? because they had 2 months to do that. Also I moved to twintania to buy the plot 11 Lavender Beds, and what I see now? I can't do NOTHING, while all the plots get bought from random guilds. So do they had more right to have it? Because I won't leave my FC to create a new one and be able to buy it because I play with my friends on our FC. I think it's no fair to do that, at least it's not fair to see how plots dissapear in your face while you can't do nothing. I think it's not fair to do that like this, because people has had months to farm some gil, and know that housing was gonna come to the server. Why I should wait for a new FC with 5 members, 2 active members, buying the plot I want, and then leaving the house empty for months. This doesn't make sense for me.

FCs benefit more from housing than individuals. Also private housing holds your subscription hostage.. you cant go away longer than 45 days. I understand the sentimental value of it though, I owned one myself. Besides that, you dont gain anything.

You have shown me, that you have no idea. With 2 weeks is more than enough for the FC buy his own house. My particular opinion, I think only 2 hours since opened the housing for FC, ONLY 2 HOURS, after open the housing for all ppl, for two hours the FC have had time to buy the house. If people work, they have class, so on, It isn't my problem, they don't play this video game. Honestly, the FC of 4 people who want to buy a house, I don't give a shit

you also have no idea anything, I think less than the other, the housing IS MORE IMPORTANTE FOR ALL, NOT ONLY FC, PLEASE, DON'T TELL ME HISTORIES OF SCIENCE FICTION FILMS.

and one last thing, when they open private houses, FCs of 4 cats (understand cats as people), I do offer (being private) more money, they should give me the opportunity to take away the PLOT

[CryBless]

Get ready to buy a good plot from a reseller owning a trash <10member house holder Free Company. One day was more than enough for actual free companies to grab a plot. The more they wait the worse the "flipper" problem will be.
"Those are Free Companies with all the right to buy a plot" people will say or at least those who are blind to the truth or even resellers themselves... but who really knows, right? /shrug

Now look what we have. Aren't you one of the especially lovely kind?
Guess what? They also don't give a shit if you want a house just the same way you don't give a shit for anyone else apparently. I guess everyone now who has a family, has a job and any other kind of obligation is "not playing the game". It is only people who can commit to be online at any hour of the day that are truely playing the game. Yes, that was sarcasm because it's utter nonsense.

I am all for opening housing to individuals now that FCs had their priority time, don't get me wrong. But anymore of these replies of butthurt people who transferred to Twin/Sprig expecting to get a mansion the moment they open housing and I am likely to consider otherwise.

the housing IS MORE IMPORTANTE FOR ALL, NOT ONLY FC

No, it's not. Personal housing doesn't give access to grade 3 buffs, it also doesn't give access to workshops. It also restricts all elements of (limited) housing to a maximum of 4 players per house.

FC housing gives all of the above and opens the potential access to 500 members per FC (depending on FC size and rank hierarchy obviously).

Imagine for 1 second, that we get into a situation where individuals own every single house and no FC gets one, no FC will have grade 3 buffs, there would be no special housing walls such as Odder Otter or Shirogane Castles, there would be no access to mounts, minions and music obtained by Submersible and Airship expeditions and housing would be less accessible to an individual than it is right now. Yes of course this is hypothetical but you have to imagine worst case scenario.

Yes of course there are shell FC's that take the complete piss, I will never dispute this, but it is literally the last housing loophole there is in order to make a quick buck (or to selfishly hold houses hostage) and I believe there should be stricter requirements for FC's buying houses but I couldn't possibly suggest a workable solution that suits the majority.

I'd also like to point out, being a complete obnoxious and petulant manbaby, will not yield the result you are after

To answer the OP, I'd expect personal housing to be available at 5.1.
