Do you think we might get to decorate/alter our houses a little more?

Wouldn't it be fun to be able to add to our houses? We change our outfits.....

  • The answer is a definite yes. In the future, most likely after launch.

  • I'm hoping that at some time we'l be able to enlarge our homes as well as decorate them.  That would be truly awesome! :)

  • Yay....that is very exciting!

  • Yes, definitely. That is the highest priority feature post-launch. Houses will be just as customizable as avatars in decoration, but you'll also be able to expand and upgrade them as well.

  • Oh, stoot!  *squeals and jumps up & down* What great news!

  • Awesome! :D  
    I'd love to be able to actually build upgrades to houses, a good use for blocks maybe?   
    Would be great if houses could have the potential to be completely unique to the owner, and not just the decoration of them.

  • I wonder if we can upgrade a small tree house to something as huge as an Alakol Home stll keeping the tree house style ^^ we'd need a very substantial tree if it will be possible, tho I'm hoping eventually to get a home in the deeps ^.=.^

  • Interesting to hear that feature is only coming in post-launch...thanks! Does that mean launch is closer that I thought it was.... :)

  • Violet,  stoot said several weeks ago that that would be held off until after launch.

    It just means that the task is complex, and they're focusing on solving easier/smaller problems so they can launch.

  • I am so super-di duper excited abou this.....My bank account, however, is fearing for the worst ;)

  • Woo Hoo!! Thanks stoot!  Now I'm REALLY glad I bought a subscription! :D

  • This is awesome n_n
    I really hope that we can interact with the decoration object... things.

    (Like for example you can sit down on a chair and rest or sleep in a bed and it will allow you to maximize your energy and happiness but you can't move for whatever time period or something like that, etc)

  • +1 @ cocomoes
    I agree...and I can't wait to be able to decorate. Interacting with the objects in the house is something I wished I could have been doing all along. Along with being able to decorate. I have read something about being able to set your bags down on tables and such only in certain houses. I have always wished we could do that in all the houses. Being able to turn lamps on and off would be fun too. And what about actually painting our own walls? Is that something that could happen? You know...like if we were in a graffiti mood.....

  • Granny ,you can place a new babys cribby in the new rooms you create.lol and babysit in glitch.lol

  • Being able to sit down would mean changing the avatars again, adding new commands, etc. and I'm not sure that it should really be a priority.  If they do get around to it, though, it'd be great if energy loss were slowed or stopped while avatars were sitting or lying down.

    Also, I hope that non-subscribers will get home expansion options as well.

  • Thank you stoot.  Have I told you lately how much I love you and the communication that gets put out here?  No?  

    Well, I love you and the communication that gets put out here.  I think upgrading and expanding the house is just what I need (because I think I love my house in Marrakesh Meadow).  Good to know that it's roadmap for post-launch.  I can wait patiently now that I know it's coming someday.

  • Ooo-whee! :D I like these ideas! 

    I'd REALLY like the ability to plant more trees on my property. That would be sweet! :D

  • I'd like my Alakol style house to allow me to:
    Paint inside walls, outside walls, and floors with color and pattern. Big bold flowers or swirlies or evil cupcake with crossbones please!
    Choose new artwork on wall
    Add trees
    Expand with more levels.
    Add garden plots.
    Add herbs.
    And truthfully I am scared of gnomes (along with clowns, mall Santas, and circus people)...can we have another option besides gnomes please? Something that looks cute but is really very vicious, expands its fearsome toothy grin and threatens to bite when people knock on my door?

  • Oh dear, Dagnabbit!!!  I fear that players will now be tempted to plant gnomes outside your door!!!
    Posted 17 months ago by Pirate Apples Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Dagnabbit,as soon as reset is over I am buying you a gnome named wabbit ,haha.
    Posted 17 months ago by Jellybelly Baby Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Definte thumbs up! I love the idea we'll be able to expand/upgrade our houses!
    Posted 17 months ago by BumbleBeez Subscriber! | Permalink
  • lol...um please god, no gnomes outside my door. Seriously. lol. I had a cute little chick out there waving at people, but thieves kept taking him. I wish he could have opened a huge mouth full of needle sharp teeth and bit their Glitchen heads off!! Everyone is welcome to leave chicks though. I will pet em and love em and name em all George. :)

    Oh..and I'd like to amend my list to add: Puddles.

  • LOL Dagnabbit!!  Chicks named George! 

    We can do that! :)
    Posted 17 months ago by Pirate Apples Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Oooooh, is this why they're taking so long? Because they're preparing for launch? If so....
    *SQUEAL SQUEAL SQUEAL!*

  • Imagine a pool,from the Alako balconys you could have such a party jumping into a nice pool of water.
    Posted 17 months ago by Jellybelly Baby Subscriber! | Permalink
  • KitkatCat

    Everything they're doing is preparing for launch. 
    Posted 17 months ago by WindBorn Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Maybe I wasn't clear. I meant as in, This is THE TEST. The last test? :)
    Posted 17 months ago by KitkatCat Subscriber! | Permalink
  • KitkatCat

    You were clear.  There is no indication that this is the last test.  In fact, having just brought a major new staff member on board, I would expect that the launch is not even "soon". 

    But, like everything, it's all just guessing on our part.  Unless a staff member makes a comment, it's all simply us imagining a world in which our guesses come true.

  • KitkatCat,
    I liked your guess better. :D Keep on imagining!

  • Expand and upgrade houses? Oh boy, I'm so up for that. I have no interest in decoration (hey, I'm a guy... what do you expect) but the opportunity to add bigger house features to a smaller, well-positioned house... I'd love that. eg adding an animal pen and more tree spots to my treehouse. Would be awesome to be able to add a cave so I could have fireflies, egg tree etc - but that seems kinda nuts.

    I guess the houses would have to reset back to the default when you moved out. If you didn't, over time all the housing stock would become mega-houses & we'd have no small entry houses left.

  • Snazzlefrazz: Don't you want the option to leave empty pizza boxes and build cement block and particle board bookcases then? :D (trying to remember what constitutes guy decor you see)
    Posted 17 months ago by RM Subscriber! | Permalink
  • LOL RM... I went through that phase 20 years ago. I'm slightly more domesticated now (ie I keep the chaos within the confines of my home office).

    I think I'm just saying that, for me, the things I do within Glitch have a certain practicality to them... a house is somewhere to store things and farm. I guess if I was more social and inviting people to come visit me then I'd be more concerned about how things looked. I guess we'll see how the game develops and if it changes the way I play it.
