Whether it was a passing comment or not but a while ago... Think back in 2011 Yoshi-p mentioned that he'd like to allow players to Summon the primals, but they would need to fight as a free company and meet certain conditions to do that.
I was wondering if people had seen any recent news to see of this was still a possibility to be implemented?
I thought it was a fun idea but possibly wouldn't work in the long run. Especially the way fates are spammed in the servers a lot.
There was a post made in a thread made by ZakarnRosewood that Yoshi-P mentioned at PAX that he would like to implement this in either 2.2 or 2.3.
I would think the only time we are going to see it is when all the primal are in Fate, basically they are designed to be in open world, the only thing I would hope for is that they are allowed to PvP or High Raid only like when you are going for a 24 ppl raid or higher.
i wonder if we will get an update here in the live letter?

Perhaps most interesting is what Square Enix is doing with summons. Instead of giving every player the ability to summon primals like Ifrit or Shiva, there will only be one Ifrit per server. “The players will get together in their Free Companies [guilds] and they will fight Ifrit. If they defeat him, they will get the opportunity to summon him once. That Free Company will get to decide where and when to use him. Then Ifrit goes out to another place in the world for other people to go get him, so it’s like this competition between people in the world. This won’t be instanced, this will be public content, so anyone in the world can do it.” Until Ifrit is summoned, no other player group will be able to summon him. When Ifrit is actually brought into a fight it seems like nearly everyone in the server will know, because the skies will turn red. Then once the skies clear, you’ll know Ifrit is again available to defeat and acquire. “The whole world is involved in the summoning of these monsters.”
