Update 43 Stream

MedicInTheWild · July 15

I figured I would bring to light that almost every reveal stream the chat is full of things that people are wanting in the game for housing and none of the repeat items seem to be improved.

More furnishing room, just during the update 43 reveal had to be several dozen complain about not enough furnishing room in these homes.
One specifically stated the reason people want more medium homes is because they cant furnish the large homes correctly due to the limited spots.
I believe its true, think about the non house maps and to build your own walls, floor and roof how much space it takes. Great idea to be able to build your own home but its so limited.

Special/Collection furnishings
I even seen one state in the stream that 2 of the 10 are gonna be wiped to have a merchant and banker.

More Housing Storage
We have not had any more chest since the original, We are not going to get more world bank space at least give us more chest or and idea make a vault to sell for each house. 500 spaces each, how can we get so many items in a game each update but nowhere to store.

This is just the housing portion so many things that they have failed to been addressed from other streams. I dont understand why the people supporting the game get ignored, no one asked for
home tours. I would have rather seen the money dumped into the 6 months that took to develop into server performance.

As always looking forward to all the new guaranteed monthly crown store items created while the broken issues of the game are under budgeted.

I'm not sure if this is just meant as a venting post, but I'm going to assume the points made are meant seriously.

It's not true they're ignoring players--they've addressing furnishing slot limits multiple times and explained why they won't. Just because someone mentioned it in chat again, doesn't mean they have to address it every single stream. They've got to know it would increase sales of Crown furnishings, at least a little bit.

Maybe it's just me, but if they don't make a change that many players requested repeatedly, I assume it's because they decided not to, they can't, or they're looking into it, not that they're ignoring it. Assuming that it's being ignored sounds like a recipe to be disappointed every stream.

no one asked for home tours.

People have been asking for a way to visit and share houses other than people's primary for years. In fact, that's why addons were made to do it. Plus, a lot of great ideas aren't requested first--for example, I've found addons that I didn't know I needed. I didn't ask for a 5-second cast time skill, but I love Fatecarver lol.

You don't have to like how they implemented Home Tours, but it was requested by people whose opinion matters as much as yours.

They cant truly say they are listening if they dont fix the issues that have went across several updates.
If they decided not to, they arent listening to what the ones playing are wanting - Im not talking the things just a few players have wanted, more to the hundreds or thousands.
If they cant, they arent funding the game properly, which in my un important view is not paying listening to what players want.
If they are looking into it more than 6 months, I think they are focusing on the wrong things.
If they arent listening they are ignoring what the payer base wants.

Now I do agree that many people have wanted something like Home Tours and I did make an incorrect statement. It is just frustrating that so many new things are coming out but they have not fixed the repeat issues that those are even publicly venting to. People are willing to get kicked from forums, twitch streams and in game to be heard on the issues that have been ignored for far to long.

As I have stated in other forums, the one thing I can count on every month in new Crown Store items which I personally do not buy anymore due to the state of the game, I know that is how they bring in more cashflow to fix and develop but isnt one of there selling points "Join the more than 22+ million players", If that was true I think they could stand to fix the issues in the game.

I know that most of the issues are more relevant in pvp where I spend most of my time but if they corrected the problems more people would invest into the Crown Store in turn making them more revenue, I just dont see buying enough crown crates to get enough gems to buy a mount, I mean I cant even mount but 5% of the time im in PVP when I havent fought anyone in several minutes. Im to the point I wish I could get reimbursed for the mounts I have bought over the years because I bought mounts to be able to use them and cant.
The other things are balance in PVP, they could easily place another campaign to try fixes but dont, the only testing we have got was in December for pop cap and it has been crickets since.

All I see is people being ignored, content and new items in the game are part of keeping a game relevant but fixing issues, balance and communication are just as important but I feel almost no communication happens on the pvp side, balance is a joke and expected to be worse with upcoming changes and ongoing issues are still ongoing.

No, literally no one asked for house tours. It was random and is more akin to a Group Finder update, NOT a big hyped up new feature for housing enthusiasts lol.

Furniture slots are not the only ask either. Far from it. How aboit Mannequins? Harvestable Plants? Changing the weather? Furniture craft bag? How about furniture deconstruction?

These are things housing enthusiasts would enjoy seeing. U43 is a no content update. And same pretty much goes for U44.
