PLEASE ADD MORE THAN 700 SPACES TO GRAND TOPAL HIDEAWAY!

✭✭✭
Please add more than 700 spaces. @ZOS_GinaBruno , i paid $125 bucks on crowns to purchase this house (which was overpriced, and i had to trick myself into thinking i was just buying x2 new xbox games from gamestop) and there are so many limitations to this area, such as not being able to scale the volcano, and although you can vist most of the map, its tricky in some spots... , or not being able to move the mini boat, This area has SO MUCH potential yet i feel 700 spots isn't quite cutting it. Please consider doubling this to at least 1400 considering this is twice if no the size of daggerfall and earthtear cavern.

✭✭✭✭✭Isn't going to happen. They completely botched the island and the cavern by making them have the exact same item and player limits as the in-game manors. There's also invisible walls all over the place, and more than half of the island is impassable due to rocks and cliffs. The value of the island was just terrible considering the price. I don't anticipate ZOS doing any more work on the home when it makes no financial sense to dedicate resources to it anymore. Plenty of people already shelled out big bucks for the home and it's not even available for purchase anymore.
Keep in mind though, being an ESO+ member gives you double the item limit on homes. So if you want your 1400 item limit, subscribe and then decorate to your hearts content.Edited by AlienatedGoat on May 3, 2017 1:29AMPC-NA Goat0 -
Fingolfinn01✭✭✭✭hey I hope they triple it.
I didn't buy it. Though if it had more functionality and higher decorator limit. I might have been tempted.Edited by Fingolfinn01 on May 3, 2017 1:33AMPC-NA1 -
AlienatedGoat✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭I am an ESO + subscriber and the max limit for me is 700
You might want to put in a bug report then. 700 is the base limit on all manor sized homes. ESO+ is supposed to double that.
Actually I just checked, and 700 is the ESO+ limit. Forgive my mistake.
Just another thing to add to the list of disappointments of Homestead.

Evan8642✭✭✭350 is the base size, 700 is what it says on players spread sheets because they are already factoring in the "double" you get from ESO + which is why it says "maximum size available"

CirithValaria✭✭✭✭Been spamming feedback about this in-game.
Considering the size of the island... the item limit makes no sense at all.
I don't care even the slightest if its not fair to have more item capacity than other "houses" - this island is clearly something very different and should be treated as different... Yes I bought it and I accepted as it is, but it won't mean it couldn't be improved thanks to constructive feedback. "It's mmo - things tend to change". I trust zos will realize this issue sooner rather than later.
Why is this island considered as a "house", its clearly an area and we should be allowed to ride there!
I can live with invisible walls, since otherwise we would build bridge out of there... hehhhehe!
What I don't understand is the limit in the first place. It is instanced secluded area. Only you decide to fill it with junk and if it then becomes very slow to load, it is your own fault - so we can live with that which we have control over!
I think eso+ subscribers should have no limit at all and if there just HAVE TO be a limit, just add one zero to that 700(0)...
I've been wondering the collectible limit too. Why is it there? Why can't all my vanity pets roam freely on my island?!?
Just so weird...but then again I'm not the brightest one out there..
Zos always encourages us to be creative and loves when we are, but these limits give a hard cap for our creativity and I hate it. I love details and I like to think myself as perfectionist when it becomes decorating. I use money, time and heart to it. I want the island feel alive, creative, unique and nice place for my guild to be in. I'm at item limit already, even if I got only my right shore - small ruins - waterfall/pond area made (all else is plain empty).
Dueling arena, hatching area (RP), DD practice grounds, crafting area. These eat a lot item capacity and require details.
I don't see any point decorating outside area with just few trees and rocks, and putting few chairs and beds or kitchen indoors which does not benefit me in no way and are only visuals at best with no real utility.
I understand homestead is made as time and gold sink (also crown). It has no use for most players by default, but after some creative thinking it can become a social environment to you, your friends and guild. That benefits them in many cool ways!

I do not have a link. I believe it was during an interview that either @ZOS_RichLambert or @ZOS_MattFiror had mentioned it was under review for consideration to increase the furnishings cap and that the current settings were purposely limited to see how server load was affected.1 -

✭They need to double all homes current housing limits
It's ridiculous this is even a problem. They didn't even give us storage! The exact definition of housing is just storage for your crap.
Not giving more storage to special sales housing items twice the size of manors was just laughable. I dismissed the island as soon as I saw the item limits were the same1 -

I have comprised several answers for you, feel free to use any of them.- Because he felt like it

- Some people think virtual homes are cool
- Not everyone has to live on Ramen and tap water

Livvy✭✭✭✭✭700 slots isn't even enough for landscaping and lighting on this property.
I really do hope they increase it, not only for this property, but for all of them. It truly hinders creativity, and is so so frustrating the way it is right now.->--Willow--<-2 -
Stormahawk✭✭✭✭I agree that 700 slots is not enough for the island. Actually it's not enough for most homes except really small ones. The item cap will also hurt furniture added in Morrowind since people will reluctant to destroy builds, or remove items from their homes for Morrowind furniture.
I bought the island UNFURNISHED as a guild home and found it already had about 150 furnishings as plants/rocks, meaning unless I wanted to kill all plant life on the island, I only had 550 item slots to work with.
Small items counting as much towards the item cap as larger ones means you also lose out by having detail-oriented builds. I've seen homes that had really incredible living rooms or yards, but the rest of the property was empty because of the cap.
The cap on mounts and pets is also a problem. It's 10 on the island and much lower in non-notable homes. Meanwhile there is more than 50 mounts and pets in the game, and more are continued to be added while the cap remains the same.
Buying more homes is not a solution since players can only have one primary residence at a time.
Either increase the item cap, or allow for it to be upgraded with gold like bag space.5 -

If you look on your map, the island is in an area that hasn't been released yet. My guess is that you will eventually be able to swim there, or maybe buy a bridge. You can see the far shore when you swim out.1 -
