Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[Alice_89th]

Speaking of which, we could also use this to split the Unending Journey into several volumes when in Private Houses, one for the MSQ (Dubbed "Chronicles of A Realm Reborn" with sections titled "Rebirth", "Awakening", "Maelstrom", "Defenders", "Dreams" and "Fall") one for the Heavenward MSQ (Dubbed "Heavenward Tales" with similar sections for future patches), one for the side stories (Called "Chronicles of a New Era" after what I think is an existing section) and one for the Job/Class storyline and the Relics (I got nothing for the title)

Please no. More items would mean more items to place, when item limit is already a problem.

Also, the Unending Journey has already been confirmed, so please look forward to it:

A furnishing for housing that has the same features as that of the Unending Journey is coming in Patch 3.1! As for the Crystal Bell, we'll be sure to follow-up with information as soon as we can.

And while I'm at it, other features that have been mentioned/confirmed by the devs:

Also, as you may know, there is currently no system in place to allow you to upgrade your land plot, which means it wouldn't be possible to carry over your furnishings were you able to upgrade from a small plot to a medium one. However! We are looking into implementing a moving feature, which will allow you to bring everything to your new home.

We are still in the planning phase of this system, but once there are developments we will be sure to let you know.

Additionally, though this is something for the future, we are currently looking into making it so you can dye furnishings that cannot presently be dyed.

We’re currently looking into adding a guest book as a furnishing item for the future so that visitors can leave a comment. However, as there are other tasks at the moment that have higher priority, the details have not yet been finalized.

I have touched on this topic before and wanted to provide a brief update. The development team is continuing to look into a feature that will allow you to set the brightness of the lighting in your houses, but as a result of adjusting the development schedule the team has been prioritizing other tasks. Once there is more concrete information about this feature I will be sure to update you.

Greetings, everyone,

I was able to get some responses to a few requests, and I would like to relay that information to you all.

There are no plans to add a market board as a housing item at the moment. Doing so would serve to further increase the load on the housing areas. Since market boards are already available in the housing areas, they would like players to utilize these instead.

The aesthetician bell is planned to be released in the future; however, there is no exact time frame on this.

Fish tanks have been requested for some time now and rest assured that the dev. team is looking into it, but they have no updates to share at the moment.

Thanks for all the feedback! The Community Teams were busy in Tokyo over the last week, and we have been playing catch up. Alas I was able to get some answer to your requests!

The development team thinks dyeing wallpapers is a brilliant idea, and they have looked into it, but the game mechanic to change the color of wallpaper is not available. They would need to work on creating this mechanic first before they can implement this feature.

At the moment it's uncertain whether this would be possible from a technical standpoint, and the dev. team needs to see if this project can be added to their schedule. They don’t want to make any promises, but they will be looking into it!

It turns out that stacking large outdoor furnishings is something that is quite difficult to accomplish with the current game mechanics, so they are thinking to prepare a giant outdoor furnishing that will allow players to climb up high.

The development team is brainstorming on what kind of object they should prepare for easy rooftop access, so please hang in there just a bit longer.

After an internal discussion, it turns out that implementing a feature that allows lighting in houses to be adjusted will require more development time than what they had first thought, so they will need a bit longer for this.

They are working on this feature along with the huge task of Heavensward, so this will be implemented sometime after 3.0. The development team has assured me that they are indeed working on this, so please look forward to it!

The development team is currently looking into implementing a new furnishing item which would allow players to place a minion they own on their property. However, they're still checking to see if they can accomplish this feature, so we can’t make any promises as to whether it will be added at the moment.

Many of these posts are older and some ideas may have been scrapped/changed by now. There are a lot more Dev responses in this thread but those are about features that are already implemented so I left them out to prevent this post from getting even longer
