Thread: Why is there no Housing Update on the special site 7.3?

Same... I was so excited for it. Although I have other things I can do in-game, this really killed my motivation.

I thought that's what we were doing originally, and I was fine with just item slots for now. The interior upgrades better be good lol

This is what I was suggesting in another thread I made! If you're going to let us upgrade to any size, then let us upgrade the item slot limit so we can use any layout + max item slot limit. It makes sense right now since it's an incentive to aim for a bigger house. But if a cottage is going to be a mansion in 7.4, let everyone have the same item slot limit.

Realistic prediction now - We're probably looking at


+ 50 / 125 / 200 indoors and + 10 / 20 / 30 for outdoors.

I have a feeling we may not even get a limit increase for outside, that's how bad the communication is between the players and devs are atm

From today’s Live Letter digest:

Housing Updates
We're currently in the final phase of adjustments for housing-related updates, such as increasing the maximum number of furnishings that can be placed, and allowing housing to have interiors which are larger than their exterior appearance.

We still need to perform major optimizations for handling immense amounts of data, so we'd appreciate if you could bear with us a while longer. We will follow up with additional details when we have updates to share.

While I wouldn’t expect to see this in the current patch cycle (7.3x), unless they do a presentation specifically for it, this is the first time the interior size change has been confirmed to be coming alongside the item limit increase, and within this expansion. “Final phase” sounds promising but who knows how much longer a wait we’re in for.

But it does seem like they are holding the item limit to do interior size change at the same time. Twelve please don’t let them be linked! I want a small with more items in it, I don’t want to have to increase interior size to get more items!

Sadly this is just corporate drivel again. If anything this just screams: "Just wait till it arrives"
again with which it being from our notorious Devs can mean 7.4, 7.5 or 8.0 or never.

As long as they don't give definite release date / patch treat it as "Ugh, stop asking you peasants".

What would be the point of saying it's almost done only to never release it? How does that make any sense?

they got make sure you stay subbed to their mid game by holding the jingly keys in front of you until the last patch when basically there is NOTHING AT ALL worth doing anymore. and people are just "catching up" to meet the expectations for 8.0 basically you're the funding cash cow for the dev's weak budget.
