thankfully I didn't refund the gil and I was the only bidder. so hopefully when they get to me it'll be a more simple fix.
The plot I bid on was one of only 3 bugged ones in the entire private ward, 6 people just waiting to see who won XD I already refunded the gil because I wasn't aware of the bug and thought I lost, but I have no issue with just paying for the house if I end up being the winner.
I really hope this fiasco gets them to reconsider instanced housing. At the bare minimum, I hope they finally upgrade apartments, this has gotten beyond ridiculous.
I was lucky i won my first large and yes as a lalafell i filled it with 400 cakes
I just hate this housing system in general.
Yes fixing the programming part was probably easy. Dealing with the angry participants is the hard part. 😆
I was like…. I already watched this 😆
Wait, I think it's fixed now. Video 3?
Mrhappy went from bald to full head of hair ?
They adressed it quickly and are going to give all ppl their plots if possible.
Cant expect more
Mistakes happen but when they happen yoshi and the devs work hard on it.
Gotta appreciate them loosely explaining HOW the system actually works instead of just saying, "sorry, we're aware of the issue and working on it"
How to prevent it from happening in the future: make 👏 more 👏 houses 👏
Gotta laugh at all the copium huffers who were insisting that this was all intentional and by design. "They put zero in the lottery so all the houses wouldn't sell in the first round guys. Its so obvious. Here's this vague and poorly translated statement by YoshiP from months ago where he said there would be systems to 'keep the market moving,'". Whatever THAT means.
Well if the end result is that the people that should have won get their houses in the end, I guess that's the best I outcome we can hope for.
I lost the house I put my lotto in to an actual human…but in the back of my mind I'm always wondering would I have won it if my chances were 50% vs. 33.34% (only 2 entries were put in the plot)
There's an issue with housing in FF14? I'm clutching my pearls in shock
Pranked by Yoshi-P
The thing is they HAVE to address it. Housing is if not the BIGGEST part of FF14. Ever since it has been released it has ALWAYS been sought after
Happy they found the problem and fixing. Wish I was one of the ones who got the bug then I would at least have some hope moving into a lrg plot in ishgrad but nope, the lot was won by someone else. Now Im sitting here trying to figure out what to do next. I saved close to two years to move out of the goblet(I HATE the goblet) and be in a better place. Out of all the other housing areas there is only two private larges left one in shino and one in lav beds. I really dont know what to do. Could downgrade to a med since there are alot of meds open but I hate to do that. Just wish there wasnt so many fc only wards. Alot of those wards have more open larges to pick from v.v
Or – OR – we can stop putting bandaids on a fundamentally flawed system and implement instanced housing. I don’t care about losing the supposed “neighborhood feel” people bring up. I simply don’t care.
Lol so the people who got a refund could have won and it’s only being “considered” if they’ll actually let them? That’s kinda shitty af
The sore losers will still not accept this. Even if the system did work and they lost, they would still rage. It is what it is. The bug is nothing but an excuse to act like a piece of shit.
It’s kind of sad how this community treats the devs imo. Obviously I am not an expert but when something goes wrong some people feel the need to send mean remarks to the devs. Despite all that they have done and continue to do for this game. Although I have had a majority good experience in game I do know some friends that got the bad ones and made them stop playing the game overall. So it seems just how really divided the community can be. Especially when people say “can’t they just etc” kind of trigger me for some reason. But then again this is what I think overall.
This video is even old. He posted again

on the bright side. At least this is faster and easier than a real property deal.
giving away the houses affected by these errors to the ACTUAL winners with no gil recollection from people who withdrew the gil would be their best compensation. absolutely positive these salts would turn into honey if they did.
My fear is, should me and my fc mates take the refund gil or not? if we do, what will happen? if we dont, only one of us won and the rest of us will just lose their gil cause we didnt pulled it back fast enough? i expected more details about that from them, cause right now im in the dark on how to proceed.
Hella yeah, that means another chance for us sorry loosers 😊 but it's bitter for those who actually got a house and the system probably didn't know it… So they just have to pay the price and that's it? No being robbed of their illegal houses?
Well that's a compromise then I guess. I just hope I still have a real chance…losing two times in a row would be madness 😬
Just let people pick up their deed from the calamity salvager. Seems fitting.
I think this is the first time ive ever been disappointed i lost the same thing twice in a row in one week lol
MISLEADING: Housing will never get fixed. Meanwhile, many MMOs have had instanced housing because they know that it works. Wards only have "charm" because of the neighborhood aspect. But most of them are EMPTY most of the time. The game needs to render literally all of those houses whenever ONE person is in the ward for w/e reason. That's such an irresponsible waste of resources. Instanced housing would fix the stress and cost on the servers. Genshin Impact does this, and I can tell you, I literally have 4 houses in four different realms. The system works great, and is getting updates and improvements all of the time. It even has some features that FFXIV housing does not, BECAUSE it is instanced. There is a lot of really cool things that players have done with the limited stuff that Genshin has so far, and it's only getting better, and better.
Meanwhile in FFXIV, the most successful MMO of our era with like nearly 1 million people playing it…we have MAYBE 10 percent (if we are being generous) of the playerbase that has access to this very exclusive system. No, joining an FC isn't nearly the same or in the same universe. Shut up with that. Someone else has total control over the house. You're just a guest.
Apartments are NOT the same. The are woefully small compared to houses and lack some of the core functions.
The solution, since the FFXIV devs seem reluctant or straight up incompetent is this: Wards for FC only, instanced for players only, players can choose which size house they want and pay the requisite gil that they'd need to pay for the FC ward houses.
The ONLY reason that I got my medium in the mists was that I was half a second quicker than the guy behind me. That's fucking ridiculous. This game is what is literally keeping SE afloat and they can't fix this? Ridiculous.
I forgot to buy a ticket for entry period…
ngl, when this video popped up in my feed I thought to myself "didn't I already watch this"
people who won aka used mods to cheat hazzah keep your house cuz no reason. this just shows that data was corrupted we knew this was gonna happen. but lets be real if they admitted that would show them as a bad light but least they admited that dat— wait a min they just said the data was corrupted wosh
I kinda hope they change the fc/private split to 12/12 instead of 18/6 as well. Too few private wards for the demand. Glitch fix first of course, but at least on my server it was a landslide of people trying for private and FC was ghost towns…
I hope they specifically run some lotto tests with 1 participant, as that seems to be when it happens the most.
I have 4 (ones a fc plot) large plots on Famfrit across 3 accounts. Two in limsa, 1 in kurogane, and the other in gridania. One in limsa is in node 4 too. I don't decorate them at all, I don't even play the other accounts, I just pay the sub to hold the plots because I know how badly people want them and it's funny to me knowing I'm depriving others of having them.
Thanks for you video clear Explanation, don’t understand other YouTube we’re saying.
TK mate!
