Shell FCs are a bigger problem than we think...

[HuaTuo]

How many FC's have I helped in terms of loans in gil? To make housing a paid service as well will anger me to no end. I have invested so much time into this game already; spent so much already. I do not care about anything else in the game. I don't even know the characters names in the plot except the dragon (dungeon boss). I literally brought this game for nothing else; it's the only mmo I heard of with housing with this par of customization and personal flair.

It's almost been a year straight of me playing and trying to get my house; I've complained so much in shout and public and homies think it's a joke. It's cruel cruel fate, the game HAD to recommend Balmung to be my starting server. But at this point I dont care anymore, if I can't have my fucking plot, none of you guys should either. That god damn simple.

lol do yourself a favour then and transfer to Bismarck on Materia. There's personal wards with all of TWO houses in them. It's also a transfer free destination, so no RMT to move. Who cares about ping when you can have a mansion, innit! I've done this myself and now own 2 mansions of 2 separate materia worlds on 2 chars. I sure am gutted for my friends who get the zero bug, but you people you keep crying about no houses, having done absolutely nothing to help yourself getting one, well, sux to be you doesn't it! xD

If someone playing for months can't attain what people have gotten in half a decade, the game is broken?

I agree this housing system is totally screwed but if it was making me that angry and I could not get what was advertised after a time, I'd just quit. Many other games to play out there.

The worst offender on our server here owns 17 properties, all the same tag, closed, with 1 maybe 2 PCs in them, and all rank 6.

It's honestly just disheartening hearing people committing to the pain of trying to get a property seeing such flagrant and obvious circumvention of the limits in place and getting demoralized by it.

In reality I think they need to decouple the things that act as an allure to owning multiple FC properties (buff prep/airships/subs) and make them be accomplished via other means. Then tighten up restriction & enforcement of such things afterwards.

And the second highest has 15, and a website advertising their "investments". Funny calling something an investment if you aren't making money off of them.

Why do you think they're not making gil from them? Workshops handled properly generate a lot of gil.

It's why public workshop access should be granted to everyone. For as much stuff as we have done for Garlond Ironworks, Cid had better be over the [real] moon happy that we want to work with him.
