PTS Update 19 Unofficial Housing Feedback Thread

Earrindo · July 2018

I have been having some real success with decorating the Villa so far. But it would definitely benefit from an increased slot count.
I think 2000 slots is excessive though. In EQ2, the max number of item slots is 1200, and 9 times out of 10, that is more than enough to not only build a structure from scratch using beds and tables, but also to decorate it with as many knick knacks and chatchkes as you can cram in.
I don't even care if they monetize it, just give us the option of expanding our houses item limits by 500, and you'll have yourselves a metric tonne of happy, happy decorators.

however, I do not get it why people still do not understand why you can not raise the item cap. this game is running on a graphic engine, you can not just change that. it was not intended when it was designed to do what we do now, you can not just double the cap, our pc's will burn through the basement.

So if my PC is rocking 2 Geforce GTX 1080 Ti graphics cards at 4k resolution and I'm getting well over 60 fps even in Cyrodiil (Vivec) on max settings with mega zergs, then are you saying that doubling the housing furniture cap to 1400 will seriously burn up my new gaming rig??? Sorry for all you console players, but you're out of luck since you can't overclock 2 graphics cards at max settings.
Man, you should go work for Nvidia then because obviously you know something the graphics card engineers do not when they designed these graphics chipsets.

it's not about YOUR pc, just read linked post

Technically, they were just countering the post they quoted, so the real reason didn't actually matter in that sense.

But FYI, I've seen games do much much more movable and customizable items in housing and those games are older. We also have items the developers have placed themselves that have packed relatively small areas and even have loot in many containers, such as delves, and they seem to have no issues with "too many items".
I think it's just an excuse to not bother changing the system because it doesn't get them more money doing so and to sell more houses as storage yards for crap furnishing drops, such as the burnt sticks from the Witch's Festival.

Does anyone know if the new fig trees from Hunter's Glade are available to buy from anywhere other than the crown store?

Love Hunter's Glade, will be buying it for my werewolf guild when available.

Great change with filling the Full bookshelf with books!

Why do the 7 new mastercraft plans use NIGHT PUMICE instead of the (more logical) Culanda or Malondo style items?

I would have expected the more Psijic related items to use the Malondo and the rest to use Culanda!

Next week is last for testing just letting you all know

Carbonised · August 2018

I already mentioned 2 bugs on the PTS.

One blue Alinor cup jewelrycrafting recipe still requires 2 Culandas, even though it should have been reduced to 1 Culanda, like the other blues.

Also, the Alinor clock got changed from 2 Culandas to 2 Malondos. It could be intentional, but all the other Alinor recipes use Culanda, and only Psijic recipes use Malondo, so it seems strange to suddenly change an Alinor recipe from Culanda to Malondo.

Make the Hakkvild interior better. This home is so wonderful on the outside and such a disappointment on the inside.

Don't get your hopes up, they never change anything on older houses except for real bugs.

Why would they bother, you already bought it = the money is spent.

Me personally, I cannot wait until the Psijic Villa comes out. From what I've been able to see of it my one and only dislike is the fact the pool in the back room isn't deep enough to actually swim in. Other than that I have every intention of purchasing it. Now as far as furnishings that I really wish we could have is a red light equivalent to the hag raven cauldron. I feel like we need more intense lights such as that in different colors.

Pashen · September 2018

I have a multitude of homes and plan on getting both of the new homes coming out, however..as always the biggest problem with these houses is the item slot limit of 700 it is just not enough for these super huge homes. Either add more slots or be able to purchase more slots. Make an item on the crown store where you can buy more item slots for your homes.

1. I am underwhelmed by the Hunters glade it may be good as far as space goes but its severely limited on what you can do with it . the limitations in some areas on height and hidden barriers makes for me not going to buy location i am disappointed by the insanely small "room" id call it more dismal hovel the a room the designed (purchased) furnishings is dull lack luster and simply bland. I expect new furnishings with a special flair not just more of the same variations on what there currently is.

2. The Psijiic House while beautiful will suffer the same fate many of the other "large" houses it may be impressive but the lack of available items to fill the house due to the limited number of slots will leave most of that housing area feel empty and nearly barren if you populate the outside area of the house the inner structure will have to be nearly barren and vice versa the cap or items on a house that size should be 900 to 1200 not what is currently allotted.

3. There is a need for more building/ structure items for housing areas things like doors of some sort that open and close
walls and more flooring more basic raw building materials things like windows,normal staircases andf landings are just the start

itd be nice if we had fancy houses that we could earn instead of having to buy with real money @ZOS_GinaBruno its kindve annoying that yall throw everything behind a paywall would be nice to see my time put to good use for once >_>

Aurie · September 2018

I have two queries about placing furnishings. They are not limited to the PTS, but seem to be worse.

First, after placing an item, if you haven't got it quite right (which happens most of the time) and try to edit it, when you click on the item again the viewing angle is completely skewed. Which makes it ten times harder to correct.

Secondly, as above but a different problem arises....not only is the viewing angle wrong, but also the item is no longer in the same spot. It appears to have shifted, so instead of what might have been a minor adjustment you end up by having to resite the item from square one.

I noticed the second problem far more in PTS, in fact on reflection I'm not sure that I even noticed it on the live server.

Just viewed the Psijiic house... WOW... your designers have really outdone themselves with this... it's breathtaking. Seriously good job. I'm just gutted I know I won't be able to afford it on release

There may be hope?
