Why do FCs get 75% of the wards?

[PMSJordan]

Can you please stop spreading misinformation? We don't have any info on Island Sanctuary, they never said it comes with a private house... on the contrary, they said to lower expectations concerning Island Sanctuary.

Yoshi-P was the one who said it. So back off with your "misinformation crap"

That moment when the producer says not to be too hopeful for content they teased months early lol.
I think a bit of people are a bit upset with 6.0 as a whole. (Story, tanks being too Op, classes being gutted) And now in 6.1 the housing nerf is not gonna be appreciated by the player base :/

It smells like BIG hiatus time

There is no housing demolition timer so Yes, big hiatus time approacheth

Have they given any details for those of us in private homes they will now be in wards designated as FC-only? I can’t imagine I’m logging in tomorrow to be forcefully ejected from my plot?

Not that I'm aware of. They've grandfathered every plot into the mix so far, so normally I'd say that it is a safe bet that they will do the same thing now. But it's hard to say. I honestly don't know anymore.

No you won't be removed from the ward or your house. This only applies to new housing purchases. Your ward however if it's in wards 1-18 will only allow a FC purchase if someone transfers or electively demolishes their house given auto demolition is off at the moment.

As much as I appreciate this- I take his words with a grain of salt

Can you link the full interview? Because if I remember correctly, this quote was heavily taken out of context. In one interview, Yoshi-P said that the islands will be different from Housing, and that quote really seems like the first sentence referred to Housing and the rest was to tell that Island Sanctuary will be different.

"He didn't say anything about that!"

*Show quote where he said that*

"Take his words with a grain of salt"

I'm not even mad anymore. Just tired.

He hath become Todd Howard with all the lies, lies, telling sweet little lies.

Not quite there yet, but he is certainly fast tracking his trajectory at the moment.

It just feels like they've entirely forgotten how bad things used to be in the past... even if you are a hardcore promoter of 'individual players shouldn't have housing and don't deserve to enjoy the content if they're not leading an FC'... this isn't going to help your issue at all, this isn't going to promote community this is going to promote the exact opposite. I already know 2 friends who will be leaving their respective FCs if they can't get a personal house in order to make 1 man FCs so they can later on bid on houses in the FC wards.

This will also once again up the popularity of RMT FC-House sellers who will charge real money in order to pass ownership of a house over (something which personal plots entirely make impossible by the way) and on most servers save for the obscenely overpopulated you're going to now see empty wards with tons of empty plots that are unusable because you need to be in an FC to get them while the 19-24 wards will be at capacity.

Also saying "Oh just wait to 6.2 and they will reevaluate it" is very mean spirited to say to a LOT of people who have been playing this game for years, hoping and waiting for a more fair system so they can enjoy an aspect of the game they've only been getting a taster for but locked out of due to limited housing (apartments which imo are far faaar too limiting compared to how much you can decorate in houses).
