Areaian Ellisson Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I abandoned my old linden home to get a houseboat. I go to select my new home but the only option i have is the traditional style. I do not have the option to get a houseboat. What am I missing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get to the page shown below, can you click on the Houseboat image? The screen defaults to the traditional homes, but I can still click on Houseboat. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loverdag Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I think they are already all taken, so only the classic homes are available. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritigern Gothly Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 (edited) More boats will be released in the near future, there are large parts of the continent which have not yet been released which are going to have more houseboats. So get one of the traditional homes for now, and get a houseboat when more come available. Edited April 16, 2019 by Fritigern Gothly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maitimo Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Sigh. I heard about this whilst I was at work. I won't be home for another 2 or 3 hours, no doubt all the traditional ones will be gone by then too. When is Linden Lab going to release sufficient homes to meet demand? 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dansintherain Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Ugh! One day and they are all gone? I got rid of mine too assuming they would still be there. So much for premium. Hopefully they will get more out soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Patch Linden Posted April 16, 2019 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2019 We do have more houseboats coming soon! You can always take a Traditional home today, they are still available, and then switch later as more houseboat supply becomes available. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone must have done an Abandon just before I hit the page earlier to check (after your post) because the Houseboat option was there for me, but not now.

My guess is that they did not realize just how popular this was going to be or they would have had more ready right off the bat. I'm also guessing they are now working very, very hard to get more out there as quick as they can. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe release the next batch in a different time frame to give other time zones preference. This time opened up around noon US, give or take a bit, which was probably perfect for much of Europe or anyone in the US that doesn't work during the day. With this go-round it was all so popular that by the time I got home from work (in the US), all of the beach houses were taken and most of the best houseboat locations were also gone. For me, I got lucky and got an awesome houseboat location backing to the open water and I preferred an inland house closer to the foothills/mountain ranges (though even that took 13 tries across 3 accounts before I got my perfect house location).

Caerolle Llewellyn Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 This really sucks. I just signed up for a year of premium to get a houseboat, and there are none. What a ripoff. :( Classic LL... 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephy Silvercloud Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 These new Homes, why are we not able to pick the style/size we want, like we've always been able to do? You click traditional, and it picks a random style/size for you...that doesn't make much sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like the land around you and want to stay, click the mailbox and choose between 4 different houses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If some people get mad and abandon their boat, you can snap it up. If you can, try and try again, today, tomorrow, and the next days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 The original SSP regions show lots more houseboats coming on the eastern side. My guess is they are working as fast as they can to get these ready to move over to the new continent due to the extreme demand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isabella Vanilla Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 The boat houses that you abandon are not available? How long will there be boat houses available? Will it take days or months? I only paid the premium for a boat house and they did not give it to me, I am very disappointed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatBigHippy Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 There don't seem to be any options even for the traditional houses now... Honestly, I've been on less and less and wondering about cancelling my subscription... I figured though that the new houseboats and a busy region might make things more interesting for a while. Guess I was wrong. I'll see what happens but I don't have the goddam time to sit pressing refresh on a webpage... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
