Free Company Housing, Not Player Housing

[Tupsi]

not hilarious, it makes sense.

Pretty much every MMO with a housing or "room" system were for individual players - even their first FF MMO did this. Guild houses usually were released along side of individual housing or after or they used a specific system like 'guild halls.' I think that's where it being hilarious comes from.

not hilarious, it makes sense. FC housing will help test to see what needs to be tweaked and/or added to make player housing work. It is a much better alternative, then to have then release both FC and player housing right now, and have everything go to hell.

100% Agreed.

The player rooms will most likely be first, to cater to the guilds.

Unless they offer attractive incentives to dump gil into a house, like actually raising a chocobo for use in game proper, I really do not see the reason to invest so much development time in this stuff.

As much as I'd like my own house...the idea of having our own rooms in the FC house sounds really great. Just more incentive to have a hub to see your FC buddies more often.

EDIT: But I guess not everyone is in a FC so I suppose there's that.

I bet you think you're so special!

No I am not disappointed because ever since they announced housing they have been saying that player housing would come some months after FC housing.

And personal housing is coming because they usually get questions about if you can own a home in a separate zone from your FC house and they said yes you can, this was even asked/answered in the latest letter.

Quit pretending you can afford a house :P I hear they're gonna put up some lowrise apartments outside Ul'duth. As a GM I feel the FC only housing is a good idea, especially if I can lock everyone else out after they help pay for it. I think we could do this over and over and take up all the house slots on the server if we just support RMT to it's fullest extent.

Look me in the eyes and tell me no one else has come up with this idea? Yea, fun times.

You realized that it's instanced right?

I do. Do you realize that the quantity of housing is limited by server and that there will be an auction? Are you competitive with those who have RMT monies? Will you be? If not, what would help you to be competitive? Do you feel that some FCs might as a whole decide to invest in RMT to stay relevant? You can lead a horse to water.
