Any word on whether or not players will be able to own houses?

    yeh, i heard that u can buy a house if ur in a clan. it is bought with virtual money so u dont have to pay real cash and is used for meeting other clan members. also i have heard that if u are the leader of the clan and own the house, you have access to a sort of weapons storage and item, a mini bank, which u can use to store things for the clan.

    The only official word on housing is "not at release". The devs have stated it is something that they plan on implementing, but it is not on the feature list for launch.

    I remember wayyyy back when this game was called MEO, housing was a feature they where advertising. It probably changed, who knows.

    It did, when speaking specifically about what features they plan on having at launch. The devs at Turbine have said that it is on their list as a feature, they just are not sure when after launch they will implement it. It could be 2 months or 2 years. They just haven't shared a solid time frame with us (the public) yet, providing they even have a time frame in mind. If I had to place a bet, I'd say about a year after launch as they know how much people want housing.

    They were speaking about kinship housing at least. But I could imagine that they will do instance housing like in EQ 2. I doubt they will do something like in SWG - it just wouldn't fit the scenery.

    it would be kind of kewl if like you could if  make your house like on a hill and was open to the public to look and go in and rate how your house looks but I doubt they will.... and i think giving a burglar the ability to steal from some houses would be awesome.... of course not Players houses but NPCs  

    or maby players houses would be great also

    There have been a couple of discussions about housing in the main forums. As I said above they mentioned something like kinship/guild hall housing for the start.
    It's the same thing with mounts - the devs said that they were thinking about it but it won't be in for release.
