Aren't players Houses EXPLODING for the increased item count load coming from Fellowship Insignia ?
Perhaps, JUST perhaps it is about time for another Storage Upgrade purchase be made possible ?
Just perhaps....
It has been stopped at +60% for Ages now, but new items get added over and over, often not even stackable, and this stresses the ability to store the new items....
Take, as only 1 example possible about many, the new Fellowship Insignia items.... it is loads and loads of new items, which do not stack..... that's quite a new load of stress on the already stressed up storage capacity of players.... and then we got the Annyversary items, the Holiday items and on and on and on....
Perhaps, JUST perhaps it is about time that we get given a +100% Bank and Storage Upgrade considering that it is years and years now since the +60% Bank and Storage upgrade was given ?
Thanks.

Then you have the possibility of getting a second house, a third, a fourth,
Which it was, well 9 Years ago....
And since this Year's Event was all about a High Seas revamp, wouldn't it be nice to "also" get an additional Bnk and Storage upgrade as purchaseable (+40% to reach a flat +100%....) ?
More money for UO, players happy to have more storage to accomodate all of the new items, everyone is happy.
Why not ?
Never be afraid to challenge the status quo
put the matching outfits together...
easier to sell a complete set, for those wishing to buy
but I have to be honest... I'd love the increase in storage too
would be nice to have an even number in the bank...
I know the jewelry box helped with storage a lot...
I have been hoping for a box for armor, but with the mannequins added to cleanup, makes me want that less... and love they added the ability to see the stats
@popps
At https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/gameplay/npc-commercial-transactions/vaults/ it is indicated that :
There could be a number of reason for a players forgetting or being unable to pay the rent, not logging into the game for real life reasons etc. etc.
No thanks.
It is no fun to come back to the game and founf one's own items gone because the rent was not paid....
I MUCH prefer a one time payment like it was for the various additional storage upgrades and be done with it, without having to worry about remembering to pay any rent or loose the items stored....
Getting a bigger house is technically an option but finding a plot for a big house is very very difficult.
Buying a second account just for storage seems like overkill, imo.
High capacity containers for armor and weapons would definitely help at least.
What would really be the harm is another storage bump? I can't really think of anything.
I've suggested another couple 20% storage increases myself. Once even to Mesanna directly at a meet & greet. She seemed surprised we wanted more storage.
The current Housing & Bank Storage upgrade code at the EA store is $20. It would be nice to have two more that stack up to 100% house storage increase. Be really nice if they also increased banks to 200 and 225.
The Developers keep adding, with new content, new items, often not even stackable, and MANY of them !!
Look at just this Year's Global Even... we got, NOT stackable, Merchant Maritime Cargo Crates, Fellowship Coins, Mysterious Fragments, the Fellowship Insignia items, the Rewards both from the Black Market Pirate and from the Fellowship, the new Shipwreck items centered around different Ships' wrecks (so if a player wanted to collect all of the wreck the amount of items that would need to be stored is exorbitant.....), Live Rock that does not stack etc.etc. etc.
Sure, some of them like the Cargo Crates, the Coins and the Fragments can be turned in BUT, often the way it works one segment one collects them, and the segment "after" one can then turn them in so, at least for a few months, it IS necessary to have to stock them up somewhere....
Furthermore, many players like to hold on to them and delay their being turned in, whatever their reasons to do that so, that is MORE storage space that becomes necessary....
So, it is a MUCH needed, as many players mentioned in this thread and other threads before this discussing the same one topiv AND, it would bring revenues to Ultima Online for its upkeep and maintainance and to fund better, new additions and new game content to it.
So, WHY NOT I need to ask to @Mesanna , @Bleak , @Kyronix ?
Please, make an effort to get this done for the better benefit of players AND of Ultima Online's revenues....
Thank you SO much.
if you really must think of it in terms of revenues, the game would get far more revenue if you opened another account, paying monthly, than if you have a storage increase and pay only once.
Not everyone can afford multiple game accounts' subscriptions so, rather then cutting down on their real life expenses needs, likely they renounce to additional game accounts and just do without the extra storage....
YET, these same players, instead, "might" be able to afford a one time purchase for some additional storage space.... that month they save up in real life for those 10 or 20 bucks, purchase the additional storage space and keep going....
What is better for Ultima Online, NO extra monthly subscription revenues (if players cannot afford multiple accounts and just suffer the storage limitations) OR, instead, "some" extra Revenues albeit a one time coming from the sale of a new Bank and House Storage Increase ?
Personally, I am of the opinion that "some" additional Revenues is still better then NO additional Revenues for UO....
Because, I would imagine, on average players who cannot afford multiple accounts will NOT spend additional money on additional accounts but, rather, suffer the storage limitations and keep going....
So, making available the sale of a new Bank and House storage increase would likely benefit of Revenues which are anyway lost to UO since those players most likely willing to spend, one time, on a purchase for additional Bank and Storage increase, would in no way consider the monthly subscription of an additional account.
"Some" additional Revenues for UO from a new Bank and House Storage Increase, is my thinking, is much better then no additional Revenues from "new" multiple Subscriptions when these players simply won't do those extra subscritions because they cannot (or have other priorities to spend their money on...) to spend that extra account subscription money....
Lastly, an Bank and House Storage Increase is usually a "percentage" gain.
A new, subscribed account, permits the owning of another House which can "double" the storage of a player in UO.
If a player has with Account A an 18 x 18 House and gets X storage, a Bank and House Storage Increase would only increase that capacity of a %. Usually, 20% unless they want to make it 30% or 40%.
With an additional account B, the player can have "another" 18x18 and effectively "double" the storage capacity in UO .... not increase it only by a mere percentage.
So, they are 2 different purchases targeting 2 different needs for different players having different needs and purchasing abilities.
They can well co-exist side-to-side, to my opinion.
That is, offering to players a new Bank and Housing Storage Increase does NOT prevent players who can afford it, to want to subscribe for additional Accounts and, thus, increase their storage ability far more then what % the Bank and House Storage Increase purchase would give them.
That is at least the way I see it.
High capacity armor/weapon storage would be a great help.
If we can't that, then more storage would be great.
My coin getter is up to 550k so I can only get coins with gm cargo now. I'll use others at the end to get some coins to keep.
There is no reason to keep those things other than deco. Tritons will be great pets for returnees.
Do you only think of yourself Popps?
Do I qualify for the "Hoarder" title?
#sorted
My departed mother was a bit of a hoarder. It is taking me a while to go through her stuff. It has got me thinking that I hoard too much stuff in the game that I will never use even for deco. Who really needs 500+ treasure maps and a 100+ sea chests?
Strangely enough, I TOTALLY agree with you...
Never be afraid to challenge the status quo
And we would like to build a custom house like everyone else can
