Attn: FC Credits for FC Housing

Like this thread if you think the, thus far, useless FC credits should be used to make our land purchases.

Limit FC's to a single plot, and place deed restrictions on plot sizes based on FC membership.

Support your server economy by keeping our gil on our servers, in our pockets, and traded for items or repairs that we need!

This is a petition for SE to use common sense, and shift some of the power back to the players, as they've listened to very little else that we've said.

Bump, gotta get the word out.

They want a gil sink, so this won't happend.

Why Yoshida is so worried about inflation when deflation is all we got since the release and why he think that we need a gil sink of 5,000 million gils (In our server, one of the cheap servers) when there's probably less than 15,000 active players (in our server) is totally out of my understanding.


No houses bought by now on Moogle, not even one... Seems hilarious to me :)

As of last night on Cactuar, there was 1 plot sold (Small)

when i will be deciding where to pay my sub next year (this or ESO), this housing fiasko will play a part of the decision process :D

Off-topic but they've listened to us plenty, good or bad. Remember warrior in 2.0? Check. Bard doing too much damage while moving? Check. Vote-kick? Check. Dungeon time-out to avoid AFK? Check. Extra ways to earn mythology? Check. Party finder with options for speed-run or story? Check.
On-topic, I'm fine with gil as is. It's not meant for everyone and it's still too early to see how much gil are actually earned per day per character.

I pretty much agree. Players these days want everything. Sadly, we can't satisfy them all.

To the OP. The answer to you is no. A few of the large guilds could come together and help each other mass farm FC credits to buy lots and returning the favor to one another by shifting players from FC to FC farming credits. Such a system is too easily abused.

You'll need to write a 20 page thread on mechanic designs to counter such things and designs to counter those designs and etc till your idea is near flawless.

I could see that as a way to cheat the system, but I wouldn't see this happening often due to the me first mentality, maybe allied FCs?

As far as the gil being removed from the server, why? We already had very little to spent it on anyway, crafts are garbage. You might say "then what's the problem?" The problem is that, with nothing worth buying and everyone trying to sell, we're facing impending massive deflassion. Markets are already flooded with everything and prices are dropping in huge amounts. Sure, we may get more from dungeons, DF, etc, but is this enough to offset the issue?

Btw, War and Brd were both fine as they were, but I do like War more now since it's easier for fail healers to keep up; I've not messed with my Brd enough to know. Party finder is nice, not used the vote kick, never seen the need, I mostly went in ready made parties.

Or make an expensive FC option that reduces purchase price.

Free company action:

Housing coupon I : reduce plot price by 5% rank 6
Housing coupon II : reduce plot price by 10% rank 7
Housing coupon III : reduce plot price by 15% rank 8

That would create FCs that really want housing can get housing, and those FC that try to get in quickly, can't (because their members have to give up their FC actions)

Shifting members around isn't really an option as it stands players have to be active either-or no matter the FC

Losing actions is a non-issue, any FC that's been active should have an over abundance of credits, mine, for example, has 2.2 million; that's enough for a lvl 2 buff every day for over a year.

We've accumulated that much in a 3 month period? Make the large plot 6mil credits, we'd have to bust out asses in DF and events, but it's fair, begging my FC members for their gil is not.

Unless it's a very expensive FC action. And it does exactly that, if you have inactive fc, they shouldn't deserve any price reductions on housing.

Making it completely on credits is bad as well, as then it would all go to the oldest FC, instead of the most active FC.

That's why a "coupon" is probably the better action. A little reduction to make it less painful.

They just need to adjust the pricing of small houses in the legacy servers and keep the medium and large house as a gil sink to remove the 1.0 currency.

Phoenix got its first house yesterday and it was Medium size. My FC could buy a small plot at any time but we're saving for a medium one, and we're not exactly one of the biggest FC's on the server.

Regardless, if SE sees that no one is buying houses the prices will be slashed.
