Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
No I understand that , something along 100mx100 or 150x150 would seem reasonable to me. Of course then we are cutting into their cha-ching they want to sell I'm guessing.
I was more pointing out there are some who thought they were getting along the lines of a square mile to build a mini town off the bat were not being realistic.

So wait that one square outline in the video was the entire claim? That's extremely small.
Man all the people that wanted to be dungeons and entire zones are going to be severely disappointed or most likely have to pay a lot of $ to have multiple all linked together.

It really depends on the upkeep imo. Have they said anything in this regard?
Personally I would hope that you can keep one plot that size without an upkeep. I hate having to micro stuff like that in games I dont actively play, and I equally hate loading it up again after a couple of months away and my precious dick castle has been reclaimed by nature or some guy remaking the pyramids of Giza on that plot.
That's one of the questions that have been bugging me about buying alpha, because for me this looks like the kind of game I dig out for a few days/weeks every couple of months. Although I might have some spare gaming budget for soonish thanks to another thread here

From what I gather even your first plot has upkeep on it so if you wander off for a while you can lose your spot. The upside is they've said once your plot lapses it'll save it as a template so when you come back you can plop it down again, though you may have to move if someone else now lives there.

From the Q&A on the last page.
It'll probably be some sort of exponential growth on resources is my guess.
The impression I got was that's the much quicker route, but that there will be also in an game way to do upkeep , where you could viably do a few , maybe several if you play a lot, but you aren't going to keep up with 50 accounts worth of plots in game without paying a shitload.

That brings up another question, I haven't heard them mention any sort of 'gold tier' subscription yet. Also wondering if they have plans to toss this onto the Station pass (if there is).

They really do need to work on that aspect. I definitely understand their reasoning for normal plots but there should be a feature where plots can be combined into a large whole for groups that want to do this.

This is no different than many FTP games on the market now. To truly grow, you have to either constantly be playing or paying a fee. Don't want or need a large plot? Then you just have to play a certain amount every week(or whatever). Large plots can really limit the world. I have no problem with that as long as you can expand and have options. Which I'm sure there will be.
The best part is that anyone who's even constructively suggesting more claimspace about it on forums is getting shout down by stuff like, "It's not supposed to be creative like minecraft, this is an MMO!" and "Gamers are so self-entitled nowadays", even "a bigger claim would overwhelm me". I swear to god, I hate like 90% of forums communities. Fucking bootlickers, white knights and pollyannas everywhere. That's why I love all you miserable jaded bastards.
