Cities And Housing Archive

Intances just don't feel right in my opinion. It is the way eq2 is set up, and I can't quite put my finger on it, but it made the world feel less immersive. I would be very upset to see instances here. Kashyyyk is bad enough already. Just my 2cp.

Yea i agree...just do a purge...that will solve alot of our problems. And then continue the purge, like if someone is inactive for 3 months then their house gets packed up in their data pad, that will keep the problem solved forever.

Each server is different, however; each server has land loss and lag because of housing. I don't see a solution coming at all. Don't be prepared for one. I'm not saying this because the developers won't do it. I made that statement because it would take a lot of man hours, resources, and mass server downtime to prune thousands upon thousands of structures per server.

The Developers might decide that they need to extend NPC cities 'No Build' zones to help relieve lag time and open up enough space for players to use around the cities. They might also use the new 'House Pack-Up' option to pack these houses away and place them in the player's datapad for future. This idea would work but would take time to figure out who has retired from the game or long vacations have prohibited the upkeep of their domain.

Actual player-based apartments won't work. Like mentioned, the above coding structure, lag within the building with 'x' players with 'x' items might overload or cause the server to slow down to unpleasant rates. A great idea! Don't get me wrong butI don't see this as a solution.

Will never happen though, its just the simple truth.

Nope, don´t think it will happen
