Upcoming Housing Improvements Announced [EverQuest II]
from ZAM News (full)
|
Earlier this evening, Dave"Smokejumper"Georgeson announced a couple of upcoming features that will enhance player housing even more. Players will be allowed to own more than a single home--there will be no maximum limit to the number of homes allowed. The EQII team is also planning on adding many more prestige homes to the game which will give decorators more variety to work with. It was also announced that the prestige homes will come with portals that will allow you to travel from one home to that particular prestige house. At this time no further information is available regarding the prestige portals. These housing changes are intended to be introduced in the next month or two. Dave Georgeson clarified that the enhancements are not linked in any way to the launch of the upcoming expansion. We'll be keeping an eye out for more information regarding these changes on our Housing Guide !
