Housing Wish List

Trying to update the list that's on the forums since it's like 40 pages long, not updated for a year and some since have been added to the game.
Originally added by Katsi (Thank you for permission to fix up the thread!)

This is not a Bug thread, but rather a Wish List for new or updated items to be added for our decorating escapades!
My personal thought on these is that while we wish some of these added to the game year around, that some also be added to guide quests, holiday or other world game events.

Floor/Wall/Ceiling options
  1. Maybe make Q and F options available for both/all cities?
  2. Multiple colors, not just brown and gray
  3. See post: Dear Dev's Qeynos Homes vs. Freeport Homes for discussion
  4. Walls that can be painted colors
  5. paint, wallpaper and carpeting
  6. Ability to change walls and ceilings in Q 5 room basements
  7. Neriak, Kelethin, Gorowyn Wall choices


/House Item Collection Window

  1. To show which items on the list show towards your count with a number or x

House Item Limits (as if you didn’t expect this one! Please note, this keeps getting requested.)

  1. Increase in house item limits
  2. or make all quested &/or no status items not count towards the house limit (Getting there on this one!)
  3. Larger homes (More money or status, who cares! We need more rooms!)

Housing Options

  1. Additional housing options in the starting zones of Qeynos and Freeport
  2. Ability to sell or give entire house and furnishings, with existing furnishings set up, to others
  3. Ability to hire out as decorator (ex. Decorator status like Vistior/friend)
  4. True co-ownership: let others (specifically the same account) access owner's broker (to let the adventure character add stuff to the broker character's broker listings) to help with broker shuffle. To let husbands and wives (ect) share ownership so the window pops up for them like it were there own.
  5. The ability to mark sales crates for what's inside (Misc, Tradeskill, rares...ect)
  6. The ability to rotate items on all 3 axis. The amount of versatility this would add would be huge! Things like placing books flat on the table/floor, placing bookcases on their backs for a ceiling or on their fronts for a floor, etc, etc.
  7. Large Houses in Freeport and Qeynos that do not require Status (Smaller perhaps?)
  8. The ability to Lock items in place so you don't accidently pick up while decorating a large area

Item Usability (Another one often requested)

  1. Ability to use furniture, such as lay in the beds and sit in the chairs
  2. Ability to turn item features off, such as the pop-up zombie
  3. Eating and drinking emotes

New house structure

  1. Windows in Kelethin Acorns (Asked often)
  2. Staircases as seen in many houses around norrath (Spiral, small, ect.)
  3. Building Blocks (see post: Please give us building blocks! for discussion)
  4. Solid iron bars building blocks
  5. Solid planks building blocks
  6. A plain dark rectangular chest (no hinges / lock, for using as a 'brick'
  7. Walls, floors, and stairs for creating extra rooms, lofts and such
  8. Windows to increase lighting without adding light fixtures
  9. Windows with views you can choose, such as other zones
  10. The ability to add/remove windows
  11. The ability to add/remove doors and doorways.
  12. Different colors. Wood / Dark Wood / Metal / Sandstone / Fabric ... etc ..
  13. Make sure the building blocks have geometry so items can be placed on them.
  14. In game building block ideas: Tile close-up Tile large view Walls and windows
  15. Roof top outdoor area for Q 5 room house in place of attic in some houses.
  16. Better houses built for smaller races
  17. Larger Maj'Dul Houses
  18. Housing option inside Village of Shin
