PTS Update 20 - Feedback Thread for Housing

Community Manager
This is the official feedback thread for housing and the housing editor. Note this thread will be updated with specific questions for the new homes and furnishings next week when they are added to the PTS. Specific feedback that the team is looking for includes the following:
Edited by ZOS_GinaBruno on September 17, 2018 4:33PM - Was the new Undo/Redo feature in the housing editor clear on how to use it?
- Were you able to use Undo/Redo effectively?
- Was the item grouping clear and easy to use?
- Did you try using item grouping with multiple people interacting with it?
- Do you have any other general feedback?

✭Didn't try anything, yet... but i do find this part of the patch notes a little disturbing.When selecting a furnishing in the housing editor, any children linked to it will be tinted for easy identification. If it has a parent, the parent will also be tinted.
I guess I get the point, but tinting children and adults when linking them just sounds wrong.

Currygaminginc✭✭✭✭When does the Lakemire Manor become available for purchase? Also are there other houses as well?2 -

No one in here threatening to quit the game over changes? Ahh. That's a nice change from all the other threads. I think I'll stay here a bit.
Seriously though, when someone gets their hands on PTS, can you show some photos of the new house? I'm stuck at work.4 -

✭✭Can anyone share any information about the music boxes? Specifically how they are obtained. I assumed we would buy them with writ vouchers, so I want to know if I should do some master writs I have or sell them.PS5 EU.0 -

Snowfaeriewings✭✭✭We can't really give notes because we can't buy the house to test it out! However this one i doubt i will be purchasing as it's just a gigantic argonian ruin. However, I do like the whirlpool in the water and the waterfalls are very lovely!
The aquariums are fantastic!! i cant wait to BUY ON PTS so i can see if the aquarium part is editable. that might change my buying mood but still not a huge argonian style fan. So hopefully it becomes buying on pts soon to tinker with.Edited by Snowfaeriewings on September 17, 2018 7:46PM0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Once again we get a huge house in a tiny zone, I see the pattern here. And once again every Murkmire item costs 1 or 2 new style item, it's the Culanda problem all over.
IF some of the new sets in the zone are in this style so you can decon them, then it isn't too much of a problem, but I still think the Summerset and Culanda ratio isn't the one you should aim after, Clockwork and Brass items works perfectly fine, that is the crafting cost you should be looking at to replicate.
The Lakemire house is once again a huge overland mass with nothing much in it, and a large house that's much too large to decorate entirely with the limit. Most likely gonna pass on this one as well, like I passed on all the Summerset houses, due to too large size and too expensive furniture item requirements. The underwater aquarium thing is neat, but that doesn't change the fact that the house is way too large for the item limit.
You increase the "collectible" item limit, which only means undaunted busts, which are completely irrellevant. Do something about the item limit for NORMAL furniture items, or you'll have lost most of my house purchases in the foreseeable future. I don't want more huge manors with nothing in them, and I know I'm not the only one.
Also, why don't the wind chimes make sound and have animation like the ones you showed in ESO live? Them being silent and inanimate makes them a lot less interesting.14 -

✭Haven't played around much with the new features other then a simple undo/redo which seemed to work fine.
Really liking some of the new items like the ladders, planks, and pathways. Items like these really help housing function better. The simplistic style (basic wood/reed) is great because it allows them to be used in a variety of applications and houses.
Home goods furnisher has a good selection of conservatory items which was nice to see.

✭✭✭✭✭Also disappointed that there is no sign of the Venus Flytraps anywhere.
These have been in game at least since SotH, and Mazzatun is full of them, yet not a single sign of them in crown store or anywhere else. We now got a bunch of new exotic plants with Murkmire, but no flytraps. Could we PLEASE get these flytraps in the store and elsewhere soon, seeing as some of us have wait for years for them, and we already have the pitchers and sundew in the store .....0 -

I've watched all the datamines that have been published here on the forums, and nothing about those. Could you be more specific?0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I mean, you can't go with the really outdated and offensive Master/Slave description.
But there has to be a better designation than Parent/Child for furnishings.
I'd go with something like Leader/Follower because the Follower furnishings move with the Leader furnishing so it's both a symbolic and literal name.signing off0 -
menathradiel✭✭✭✭Undo/Redo: Thank you! I have lost count of how many times I have wished for this feature. I tested it out a little earlier and it seems to function perfectly fine.
Also a thank you for fixing the constant toggling on of run when placing items from the preview screen. It was a major annoyance!
I still wish there was more finesse in placing items, like being able to move them along the XYZ axis in the same way as you can rotate them, and a way to align wall/floor sections.
I'm a little disappointed that there were not more garden/flower additions in the new furniture. There are so many beautiful plants in the game that we just don't have access to, and for an avid gardener like myself, who based their decision on what house to buy on the gardens available, it's a real shame that what's on offer is so limited.
EDIT: One of the fish in the underwater area of the new Murkmire Manor is dragging around a geometric shape as it swims. It's on the same fish in every swimming school.

✭✭✭The basement of the house that doubles as an aquarium is pretty spectacular. It could use more and larger fish or other creatures; but otherwise this is a wonderful addition.1 -
