This sounds really interesting. Any chance of their being on on July 20th?

Quote:Actually, I do partially agree with you. I think, with all of the doors in the game, that it is possible to assign a door as person's residence so that it is part of the game world. However, once you click on the door and are "allowed in", then it is instanced the way a house or an apartment is in the real world.Originally Posted by Adeon Hawkwood
A lot of what he says there would not (IMHO) make snese for CoX. In particular I tihnk instanced housing would be a must. Non-instanced housing makes sense in MMOs which have huge tracts of open land but CoX is set in a city and lacks the large open areas required to provide non-instanced housing for even a fraction of the total characters created.
Additionally regarding taxes, my view is that if player housing is ever developed it should (essnetially) be viewed as an extension of the costume creator. Not something you need to spend a ton of inf accquiring and maintaining but something you use to display your character's personality and use as a setting for RP.
SG's require you to pay "taxes" to keep them up. I think to prevent housing from being taken up by inactive players, there should be SOMETHING required to keep it if not taxes.
As for SG bases... they are absolutely not a substitute for player housing. The only way to have your own "private" space is if you choose not to belong to an actual SG. The two should be separate and one should not be forced to give up being part of a player community in order to have your own space. As for furniture for my "room" in an SG, I want more than a cot or rug to sleep on. -
I've been playing CoX since two months after it's release. As you can see, I RARELY post in the forums. It's just not my style. However, when my husband (also a veteran player) and I read this blog post by Greg Dean, author of Real Life Comics and long time gamer, I just HAD to post it. It's way too long to post in its entirety here, so if you're interested go to this url: http://www.reallifecomics.com/ and look at the Feb 10, 2011 post "The Player Housing Manifesto".
It's a really great read and has a lot of fabulous suggestions for player housing, something I know my friends and I have wanted since before Super Group bases were introduced. -
I need monkey heads please!! But really, monkey heads aside, THANK YOU!!

I almost never post, but this one is near and dear to my heart. I haven't read all what's been suggested already, I'm just gonna post my wish list.
Floor to ceiling walls so I don't have to fake it
Workout equipment
More options for floors, walls, and ceilings
More wall art
More options for chairs, tables, and BEDS
More options for lighting
Kitchen / break room options
Additional types of bookcases
Floor to ceiling book cases
Pieces to build mechanical labs
Lab animal cages complete with animals
More computer styles
Additional floor tiles, one is just not enough
More COLORS. Even if it's just the same old stuff, give it to us in a rainbow of colors
How about the ability to remove upper and/or lower wall molding for an entire room since it disappears when you put item to close to it anyway or don't make it disappear.
