But you would only need to plant a first seed once. After that, you'd be alternating them, changing out just one plant at a time that's always next to a plant that's already there. Awkward, especially when you want to change your target harvest, but it would at least be possible to get cross-pollinated results (which wouldn't be possible with single pots). And, as I said, that'd be the smallest they could realistically go, not the ideal place I'd want them.

They did say all along that they wanted FC housing to still be relevant so I'm guessing there will be the limiting/removal of some features and the adding of others, trying to get you into both types of houses.

But that has more to do with choco stables and eventual airships and such.

I copied this from Reddit:

Housing

Individual player housing to be added. (06/19/2014; Slycer)
Personal Housing

Must be level 50 and have FC Rank past a specific level. (?? Probably doesn't matter anymore.) Cost will be more than 850k.

New land will be added alongside personal housing. (Letter LIVE XVII; 08/23/2014)

Zodiac (Relic) Weapon Quest (Letter LIVE XVII; 08/23/2014)

Team cannot go into the item level just yet.
Relic weapon upgrade will take a long while to obtain. (Dengeki Online; 08/19/2014)
Replicas of previous Zodiac Weapon stages possible if they don't have battle related differences.
Novus Weapon stats will not be reset upon upgrade.

Chocobo Raising

Players will now receive a warning message if you try and feed a Thavnairian onion to a chocobo that does not meet the requirements to increase their rank cap. (Grekumah, OF; 08/20/2014)

The Binding Coil of Bahamut

Savage version of First Turn Bahamut's Coil (Turns 1-5) to be added. (??) (Letter LIVE XVI; 07/22/2014)

May be pushed back to unknowable future, due to timing with Savage version of the Final Turns of Bahamut & possible lack of original Coil data. (Thanks Theendofallthatis of Reddit!)

The Crystal Tower: Syrcus Tower

Sands of Time Drops to be added. (??) (Letter LIVE XVI; 07/22/2014)

Quality of Life

Ehcatl Wristgloves to be made equippable by all jobs for glamour purposes. (Grekumah, OF; 09/03/2014)
"Unique" tag to be removed from Artisan's Spectacles & Forager's Hate so multiple can be obtained for dyeing and glamour purposes. (Grekumah, OF; 09/03/2014)
iLvL of rings obtained via Ramuh Extreme to be pushed to i110. (Triairy, OF; 09/08/2014)

If you have a Ramuh accessory in your possession, it will be bumped up to i110 immediately upon update.

User Interface & HUD

Configuration settings to alter the way buffs & debuffs are displayed (Push back to 2.4 or further, or never implemented). (Minagawa Blurb via Grekumah, OF; 08/06/2014)
Multicolored text to be fixed (Was originally a bug which was resolved in 2.38 patch development). (Minagawa Blurb via Bayone, OF; 08/07/2014)
Various special text characters to be removed. (Was originally a bug which was resolved in 2.38 patch development). (Minagawa Blurb via Bayone, OF; 08/07/2014)

Misc Additions

Additional commendation rewards to be added. (May be pushed back to 2.4). (Letter LIVE XVII; 08/23/2014)

And the hug emote too!

That reddit quote thing comes from a BG thread, I think. http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/122...ted-Interviews

Just can't put my finger on the Relic upgrade based on the content available... I would say its Soldiery or Allied Seals (which Seals would be broken in context of 'long') related but everything since i90 has been associated to RNG to make it supposedly 'long' while luck contradicts their statement. There has to be some low-rate, low-challenge, redundant content to keep consistency...

I doubt Savage 1-5 is gonna be in 2.38 all they have ever said is that they will look into it someday

Also about the personal housing and land, I've always learned to scrutinize every little word dealing with disclosed information from SE because they have a dubious record of never wanting to do so. So although every single time he mentions adding land, Yoshi-P also mentions that personal housing will also be available in 2.38 it does not mean 100% that personal housing will require the land but just that both will exist in 2.38. Although I have to admit it is prolly about a 80% chance that they are making the ridiculous decision to put personal housing on the same server structure as FC housing, maaaaaybe they won't make that mistake because he never flat out says the land will be required for personal housing. If the Dev team cannot figure out a way to supply FC housing to the playerbase because of resource limitations the last thing they should do is attach personal housing to the same resources... Then again based on their track records of falling short on EVERY single patch/sub-patch so far, this is the highest probability of severe disappointment to come from this patch

Some people are going to be disappointed. Some people are always going to be disappointed. That's just how the internet is. No matter what happens, someone will whine. No matter what they do, even if they give everyone who plays FFXIV a pony that farts rainbows, this forum will be full of whining when the patch comes out. Look forward to it!

Well yea that is true, but i was more directing to the fact that there has been maajor oversight errors in every patch, that then gets adjusted asap for damage control... and not having any room for personal housing because of the needless way they seem to be planning to handle the resources is the most likely oversight error of this patch
