Player Feedback. Have some!

[HuaTuo]

SE apparently appreciates and acts upon a feedback. Pros and cons of the new "improved" way of acquiring a house are much in detail discussed within tons of other threads and posts, so I'll keep this short and sweet.

Square Enix, YOU SUCK!

Yes that's my feedback. Of course the community on here, may or may not respectfully agree/disagree, but that's besides the point.

I wonder if SE has a stake in some shady RMT syndicate, coz all it does is hugely favors FC selling, limited by 30 days of wait (or just simple instant character delete). So much for "integrity".

Once again: SE, you suck!

A bit harsh but I can't say I disagree. Well, other than the RMT rant.

I love the housing decisions. Just wish they sent me one of those big tins of popcorn for all of the forum entertainment they have provided.

Try doing the instant delete if you dare.

Words going around are that the FC gets auto dissolved and the FC estate auto demolished if no one else in the FC were members for at least 30 days. So at least SE did close the loophole which certain players are trying to exploot.

it doesn't work that way :P Tho I wish it would. Surely you have some source to back it up?

Its been tested on the reseller discord. 2 people confirm that deleting the FC owner, when there are no other over 30 day characters instantly dissolves the FC. Meaning the house is destroyed and becomes available for all.

If they wanted to be making money off house sales, they'd just do it outright in the cash shop. No need to hide behind illicit RMT.

I think this is more a case of either someone on the team got lazy or some problem kept them from doing what they should have done - divided the wards world by world based on individual world needs. Some worlds might well benefit from having 75% of wards set aside for FCs due to a high number of FCs on those worlds. But it should have never dictated the ward distribution for lower pop worlds, or the new Materia worlds.

Still not going to stop RMT but at least SE thought that part of it through.

I don't feel the lottery is terrible. The fact that on day one we didn't see thousands or even 100s of entries is more interesting for me. Although, I'm sure that I will see a sharp uptick from people who are waiting for the last day to see which plot is the least popular and try and go for those... I still prefer lottery over the placard clicking personally. FC housing still having mostly zero peeps even trying for them is what's actually annoying me at this point. I just don't get how they didn't see how long housing remained vacant for FC only housing and only after personal was open that wards were being put to use by solo peeps...

I know they want the neighborhoods to be more lively but they need stop acting like FCs are the only ones that will make it that way. There's plenty of venue type houses that are not FC base that can help wards come to life as well. But I guess that doesn't matter. Anyway good luck to everyone who's trying to get a house o/.

I think any1 with a modicum of brains and tactical thinking will wait until last hour or so to enter on the plot that is least contested. The madness it yet to come.
