Necessary Free Company Qualty of Life Upgrades

[Grekumah]

Greetings,

I have a few pieces of information I would like to share with everyone regarding FC quality of life improvements.

We will be releasing the feature so that free company masters can remove players with private chambers in patch 2.35. We also expect that the feature that will allow masters to remove players who have stabled their chocobos will be ready at the same time. Separate from this, we will also be looking into making it so the FC master can remove the chocobo from the stables without removing the player from the FC.

The amount of food you can obtain from gardens can be increased by using certain soil. We will look into making it so you can obtain them through other content; however, we would like to maintain the way gardening functions as content, so we will not be making adjustments so you can get a large amount of this food. (I.e. sell them in shops, etc.)

We’re still looking into some of the other requests brought up here, so please give me a bit and I will get back to you with any information we receive.

The amount of food you can obtain from gardens can be increased by using certain fertilizer.

"Can be?" Not "will be?" As in, this yield-increasing fertiliser is currently in the game? Fertiliser, as in something similar to Fishmeal but for yield?

Also, are there any plans to increase FC chest size? For FCs with gardens, we're having to dedicate an entire tab for just seeds and soil and space runs out fast due to how many unique seeds are used in growing top-tier plants.

Heh - that was exactly the same first though I've got when reading the post ...

And - I totally agree about FC chest size - it needs at least two more tabs - one for gardening and other one for food and other new stuff released. It was already (although vaguely) "promissed" so just let's hope we wouldn't need to level our FC to lvl 20 or something silly like that ... Also - can we have option to move items between FC chest tabs plus option to move / store / retrieve multiply items at the same time. It's SO tedious atm to do any re-organization of the FC chests ...

The 300k isn't a massive deal but people don't just have empty rooms. It's the furniture and such. If I invest over a mil decorating my personal room I don't want one of the FC leaders to take a hissy because he's having a bad day and kick me for no reason. We're going to go from one extreme to the other.

It was already mentioned by devs in another housing thread that if you'll be dissmissed from FC while having personal room while you'll indeed loose the room itself as well as any non-retriavable items but all other items will be stored at special NPC for you to retrieve from later on.

Quick question: Whatever happened to the FC alliance system that was supposed to be out in 2.2 according to one of the community rep's post? Can we get some insight on this? It's so odd to hear that a unique game mechanic is MIA for over 3 months.

It's been more than 3 months they mentioned this before ARR ever came out, then was not heard of again until 3 months ago and silent again.

this should be a top priority since for some reason you let it be allowed to feed a chocobo who cannot get any more xp, too many wasted krakka roots....

Please clarify that there is currently fertilizer in the game OTHER than Fishmeal.

Your statement here suggests that it does in fact exist but there is nothing other than seeds, soil and fishmeal marked as Gardening currently. If you want it to be a secret we find... we can understand that, but if its in the game and just tagged as a reagent or something please let us know.

I never expected an actual dev response! Thanks Grekumah. I'm excited for some of these confirmed changes, and I'm looking forward to any new information you might be able to give us in the future. I hope some of the other ideas other users have added are being considered too.

Now to frantically find this magical yield fertilizer. We know about the yield soil, but we tend to use the inter-crossing one instead since we are gunning for the onions.

making it so the FC master can remove the chocobo from the stables without removing the player from the FC.

This could be nice, if I understand how it will work. Many times people go out to do quests or fates or whatever and forget to retrieve their bird from the stable before they go. If I could get the chocobo out of the stables for them so they could summon him, it would be helpful.

what if they kick the person on purpose and the person wasted 300k on a private room.

it's why I think whoever buys a private room gets to keep it even if they move to a new free company.
