ideas for future patches (hopefully sooner than later)

I think it would be very beneficial to have a floor price, such as having pricing go no lower for (...) HQ no lower than 50%.

So you're saying that if a player wants to sell a HQ item at (only) 40% over the NPC purchase price they shouldn't be allowed to? And what if people aren't buying at 50% above NPC price? Then you think players should just sell it to a NPC?

That doesn't make any sense. Free markets are best. If a seller and buyer agree on a price, you shouldn't try to stop the transaction because the price doesn't benefit you personally.

more free company chest slots we are so jammed packed with high lvl mats and gear :s

give us something new to spend free company credits on we are breaching 8 million points cant spend them fast enough maybe make an npc that u can trade points for the work craft stations or the gardening plots... even though its too late for us we bought them already but for others leveling.

i feel your pain lol, its almost as if they need different bonuses for credits. If the company has the credits why cant they use that instead of gil for buying items?

I was there man...I was there...I've seen things... It was... well not really that interesting it was just some random spawning Garlean Soldiers, not much to write home about.

Yeah, I heard it wasnt interesting as well. HOWEVER, we do have the Wandering Minstrel to make things more lively.

Rather than Battle of Cart, I'd like to see 24-man stuff that is like CM and Prae... Larger and more complex with additional mechanics...
Cannons, magitek, etc.
An assault on Garlean strongholds...

omg that would be awesome, hugh raids on the empire!! WHO'S WITH ME!!!!

I like this idea for having gil into the company bank, however one other twist that could add to the FC without the flack, is that you could make this a benefit for a future rank, as well as don't make it a tax, make it a "bonus", so the user will still get the exact amount that they normally get, but a bonus of .5% (or whatever bonus) is sent to the company bank.

actually i would like to see this kind of thing as a FC credit spending buff. but that is a good idea

No. Definitively no. I want to chose when I donate and how much I donate. And I prefer donating a lovely carbuncle lamp over the 1 million gils it would cost.

This is where the petition would come in handy, if members do not wish to do this then a leader in that FC should voice that opinion. If players dont like the dues/tax in the FC im sure there are plenty of FC's out there that wont do that.

Its just a suggestion, SE doesnt have to have a 10% and 50% floor. But its a starting point to get a discussion going. If a buyer just ignorantly puts up items at extremely low prices then that ruins the economy. What they should do is look at the market board and compete with the other players, just don't drop the price to almost nothing. If someone is going to sell items for NPC value then go sell it to an NPC. The reason a buyer agrees to a sellers price this way is that they are taking advantage of ignorance.

I just don't understand why players do not have the initiative to make more gil. Instead of selling items at an extremely fast pace and driving the economy to the ground, they should do a little research and make a lot more gil for themselves. Research takes less than 30 seconds...thats it! The difference could be hundreds or thousands of gil.

Im not suggesting to get rid of the free markets, what im suggesting is making more gil for players.

[Poppa]

So you're saying that

sorry about the long post...SE and their forum limitations

People will purchase HQ items at a higher cost, they will. For example its more convenient for a player to buy 10 HQ fleece than sit out there and fight over sheep. I know its a small number but its the same concept. I have seen several HQ items selling for 1 gil, now that should not happen.

The market is there, people should use it to make gil not dump items there that you could simply sell to an NPC for the same price. Besides some of that stuff people are loosing out on, such as the market tax. There are some players that sell items for NPC value and then get taxed on top of that so they are actually selling it for less than NPC selling prices.

SE doesn't have to take my suggestion, but they do need to come up with a better solution than prisms to fix the economy.

I'm sick of 4 man content and really want more 8 man and alliance content.

Re-imagining events would be neat. They've done it once now with Ultima Hard and I could completely see us getting to do the Battle of Carteneau someday.

I prefer the game not dictate things like Market Ward floor prices or FC taxing but thats just my opinion.

I love me some minions and could see eventually having primal ones.

Summoner/Scholar icons, I can't believe they aren't already changed...
