PLEASE SE!! make it so one can convert there personal house to a free company house.. i personally want to give up my personal house so my free company can have one... i would let it go and re-purchase it for full price as a FC house but this RNG on the housing is not fair at all and could lose it completely.... another idea could be to instance personal houses instead of having the apartments .. and leave the wards for Free Company's .. it would possibly help people interact more as a community

I like the idea of letting you turn a personal into an FC. The rest of it not so much. I'm in the same boat, I have personal I'd love to turn into an FC, but I can't so I'll likely buy *another* house. If I can win the spam click.

The thing is, that timer was made to put a dent in reselling plots (at least the personal ones) and if they let you convert it to an fc plot then someone can either:
convert -> sell fc
or
join fc -> collect gil -> convert/leave. -
05-04-2019, 04:03 AMArazehlI don't think this is great idea. Way too easy to take advantage of by players who would make an FC house, only to turn it into their personal home. FC's should be unique for their members with workshops, house buffs and the like. I'm not sure you can do this, but I suggest to watch for a plot to open up and transfer to it and make it the FC house. There would be no rng timer then.Quote:

I also would like the ability to switch my personal house over to an FC house and back again! :D But, I also didn't think about people having the ability to steal it for themselves, either. If there could be some sort of system put in place like... maybe a days-til-switch countdown or having a number of FC mates or leads sign a waver to allow it or something. :/
When you create an FC you have to have people sign the deed thingie to start it up. Maybe they could do that for switching it from an FC house to a personal house. A "days-til-switch" could give the FC a heads up that something is happening, and stop it if necessary. /shrug Like: "Hey, this house it being switched to a personal estate in blag blah days." -

Being able to convert a personal house to a FC house, assuming your FC doesn't have a house and you have the appropriate permissions in the FC, would be nice. This would need to be a one way thing though. No taking a FC house and converting it to personal.

If it was a one way street Personal > FC only then several of these arguments would be null. I'd be perfectly fine with that.

I see another scenario that would be a problem. A player with a house is invited to an FC, donates his house to it, and then is kicked out now that they have what they wanted from him.
However, if that player remains the actual owner of the house, both this and the problem pointed out by Arezehl shouldn't be an issue. There would be a new problem, though; the player who donated his house could then lord it over the rest of the FC, demanding all sorts of preferential treatment, because they don't want him to leave and take the clubhouse and all its amenities with him.
It's a nice idea, but I'm not sure if there's really a way to do this without one serious problem or another developing. -
05-08-2019, 12:22 PMAzurithBasically don't be a dick, I mean this could still happen in away now, player donates time and money to get an FC house, then gets kicked after they've got what they wanted. People will be assholes, moral of the story be careful who you trust.Quote:

I'm all for them adding the ability to do a one way transfer of personal to FC. Trying to start up my own FC but due to the fact that I can't just change my personal medium into a fc estate we're fighting to try and get a plot, all so that we can just relocate to where my medium currently is. I'd even be okay with repaying the entire cost of the plot all over again just to convert.

05-12-2019, 09:30 AMDyvidMaybe SE should just let the free market do it's thing. People are just selling FC and plots regardless of random rimter or not.Quote:

has to do with programming in the company workshop and ability to have quarters in an FC as opposed to a personal house that prevents a direct swap.

It's absolutely ridiculous that we STILL cannot convert a private house into an FC house in zones that are allotted for both.

Years asking for this and only silence from YoshiP and the devs. They don't care about player housing. NOT.AT.ALL. They gave up giving us new housing zones after Stormblood. No new zones in Shadowbringers. No new zones in Endwalker. Does anyone here actually think someone at S-E would read this thread and say, "Hey, we should make it so players can turn their private house into an FC house. That would make so many people so happy." Nope.

well, ye oldest version allowed that, given that you had the money. that's what we did in HW when me and my friend wanted to turn her house into FC house
but we are talking about turning personal into fc house without the pay? and currently, the lottery nonsense.
i guess. in perfect world this would be wonderful. in real world, these forums would be flooded by thousand threads complaining about private > fc pipeline.
i say this as kindly as i can: help your friends to begin bombarding those plot lotteries. i genuinely believe in you. -

You're promoting house trading with this idea. It's baffling how people want to introduce systems that make it even easier to obtain multiple houses despite the claims that multiowning is a problem. :D
