Personal Housing

[YeaniNah]

I know for some people will remember or not But i try to find the picture of the House with field and a barn that was shown (drawing).
When i saw that i was so suprise and couldn't wait to introduce it for everyone to unlock and that everyone can have it and thought it could be everyone got same size of house and you can unlock the field to farm to farm on it.
Be able unlock the barn
But we end up with an personal house that we need to hurry to buy that cost alot and is with the FC house.
And the reason of not able to do it and have so much stuff is server stress. But they add more space to armoire , they allow to buy retainer and maybe more retainer in future they said they are checking on it.

But for those who say Buy to win ...with retainer on optional its already one ... 2 more retainer to sell thing that alot. But what if we are interest to pay $ each month to have our own personal house instance (no more armoire) but we can store things in some desk that can only be in those house. Since some will prefer have retainers and have a mansion house in FC instance.
Im sure many will be able to have a house and farm on it.(they could have added the option of getting our minion walk in our personal farm instance.)

And with that 1-2$ each month you add more server for those instance.

It's just an idea.you have right to not like it

PS. Sorry for my english im not perfect in it and i forgive and still understand those who wrote in my language in a wrong way.So rude people pls ^^. But if you want to correct it to help i won't mind.

I'm with the idea if it's the only possible way (and I do mean the only way) for everyone to get personal housing, but I'd prefer it to be a one-time cost (I'd say $20) rather than paying monthly.

This is not necessary, the problem with housing limitations comes from pure server space, to add more housing they have to buy more servers, something they will be doing in the future, because we are already paying for it, physical CEs and cash shop, if you want to support their income so they can add more housing, use the optional services.

And to inform people who seems to ignore the base of the problem, because of lack of knowledge or whatever, making housing instanced wouldn't solve the problem, the memory limitations are related to the big amount of data saved for every house, the neighborhood does not take sever space, so making housing instanced would only make it lees interesting.

i think the idea is sound, but don't think they should be limited to only one size. while a one-time fee would be obviously preferred, they would eventually no longer be able to pay for the server resources required.

i personally would drop my retainers in an instant and pay no more then their combined total for an estate. i have been playing this game since early release, and have only earned a net total of around 3.5kk~5kk. even if i wanted to save for an estate... it would take me a god-like amount of time.



ANOTHER idea is to allow players to rent/lease an estate with gil. these estates will come with a house already built upon it. you would make all your payments up front. maybe a specifically designated sub-division for these estates.

The reason why i see the way of the FC house style is first come first serve so some have like many house (with alt) and some who don't one at all. that's the problem. Optional service like you said pure server space (they say they can't had more space inventory to store gear cos of server space but allow people to buy retainer on the same server that is space right) if they can add retainer you buy why not house you pay.
And like you say if yeah instance for one person that too much maybe like instance with neighbours but the house is not bought by gil but by optional service. so that everyone can have atleast one house or buy at the FC house ward

For different size might come with different price either maybe ... more bigger house means more you'll pay for it ...More idea is always welcom

I do think it would be feasible to have a subscription purchase to reserve a personal housing instance.

However the question would remain on whether you can share this instance with others and what that would entail? Is there a directory of these personal instances? Then everyone would KNOW you pay real money for that, at least most of the vanity items are more discrete. And so how would acces be allowed? Do you make a list? Would it be a check list? A virtual lifetime invite you share?

We really need FC housing to have its own space again, though. Separate from the personal houses.
Personal housing completely killed any chance for new Free Companies to get a house for the upcoming content.
Implementing personal housing this fast wasn't really a good idea. I can understand people demanded it, but I'm sure a lot of people would go back on their word now, seeing the trouble it's caused.

There's a difference, they have the space to make additional retainers, there's not really much interest in having more than two, and they seem to take lees memory than housing, but a lot of people is interested in housing which requires more space than retainers, and must be added in big quantities, in this case, the money for housing must come first, so they can buy and install the new servers, or upgrade the old ones, who would pay a service they wont be able to use for the next 3 months or more?
Even if this is not a problem there is another, houses are not minions or retainers, houses are content, the fact of directly selling them to the players for real money is a moral problem, if you can pay $ for a house, why not pay $ for tomestones?

This system is not needed and definitely not right or moral. They will end adding more housing, the implementation of this system will only make you pay for something that will be free in the future.

And just an observation, you are on a high populated server, there are lots of free plots in other servers with less population, i'm not telling you to move, but even if they were to add this system, the housing would still be limited, and the high populated server would still suffer the "race" to get a house.

If you want a real solution, SE should add more housing based on the population of every server, instead of adding the same number of plots for every server.

it's not hard to see who have using real cash. Odin Mount , Minion bought in cash shop and other mount they might add no??? and for instance someone talked of it saying would be more like shared instance but would be fun its was little different of FC instance. like more space to it and a better looking chocobo barn and field. Sad i cant find the drawing i was they showed before 2.0 went live -.- was so pretty small house and a small garden and there was a bridge and you could see the chocobo stable seperated of it was pretty. but maybe like a filter.. friend only can enter the estate / Friend/FC can only enter / Public can enter. And if there is chest its lock to people entering. And i would LOVE GEAR STANDS to come ..... i remember hearing of the weapon stand .. but that idea was killed -.- RIP
