Can i just say that 120k is not enough for a building that requires a master artisan and high level architect, and two different factories to construct.

Which is why some of us don't make houses except as favors to friends. Heck, I don't even own a house!


For the amount of resources that go into a medium house ($50K) I could make a $100K fusion gen. For the amount of resources that go into a large house ($120K) I could make a $150K heavy harvester and have enough resources for a $50K factory.


Economically, it makes sense - a harvester's worth more than a house because it can make its owner more than a house. But that still doesn't mean I gotta sell houses when I could be sellin' harvz. Sort of a catch-22 for the master architect.


The right solution is to find a non-master architect who still needs the XP from grinding walls, and who can't yet make 13-BER heavies. Folks like that will (a) be happy to sell you a house, and will do so (b) at a fair price.

I can only suggest patience. A large house is a very complicated item to construct, and so you'll be unlikely to find one 'ready to go'. As noted above, it's quite an awkward undertaking, so most Architects will not make them unless sure of a buyer, and even then, may not want to do it anyway.



Best bet is go to whichever busy NPC city you favour (Theed, Coronet, etc), and doa Search in the Community Window for Architect (Either Master, or Buildings IV), and send them a tell. Rinse and repeat until you find one willing to take on the commission.

Don't let the negative AFKophobes get you down. Play the game however you want.

Is the beta testing almost over for this game?

I sell large houses for 145k on Chimaera. I get more buyers than I can handle at that price... It's not that hard to make a large house really. The biggest problem is the amount of resources needed and the fact that I can get higher cpu from selling harvesters or furniture...

The return per resource is the key stumbling block you're probably up against. As mentioned above, the same resources can be used towards other structures which sell for twice as much. I churn out medium and heavy harvesters by the factory crate-load but these days large houses are a complete non-starter except for close friends.


Hopefully you'll find someone who can help, but my advice would be to thrown down a few harvesters for a while and try to gather the ore yourself. Any type/quality will do, and you'll need about 25000 units.


At least then you could approach a friendly architect whomight be more inclined to make you the house without "wasting" their most valuable resources.
