Any plans for a 2nd house for FC? Or maybe housing upgrade?

[Frizbeez]

Hi, I've been wondering if SE is making plans for FCs to own a maximum of 2 housings? Or maybe a way to upgrade to a larger house?

Our FC's grown, and would like to upgrade to a Large House to serve as a new HQ. But we've already invested a lot of furnitures and crafts on our current medium house, so to demolish it is a no for us.

Housing Transfer is coming in a patch or two. That should enable your FC to upgrade, although I think they've described the feature more for FCs that want to move their existing houses to other wards.

While a lot of people might get angry that FCs like yours want to buy different houses while many FCs remain homeless, with irreplaceable furniture and airship exploration, they really need to implement this feature soon. FCs literally lose months of airship progress if they demolish a house at the moment.

Official word was that housing transfers will be implemented BEFORE new housing wards are added. Not sure when that will be though.

EDIT: See, I had a feeling no one would read WHY the OP was asking for two houses, and that everyone would get upset. He is not trying to be greedy, he simply wants a different plot without losing irreplaceable work that his FC has done.

There's no way SE is going to allow an FC to own two houses, the lack of housing is bad enough as is.

when there are serious housing problem, i.e. high demand extremely low supply
no, i dont think SE will and should allow 2nd house

They need to fix personal housing before they allow a second FC house. For crap's sake, they need to make 1 personal house per account.

I hope SE doesn't ruin housing any further until they make this a reality. At the moment, it's unfair on new players or those who were simply not fast enough to even get their first house around patch release. New wards haven't been implemented since last year which means we have a lot of players who are waiting patiently to get and probably holding millions in the hope the next patch will get them their first. From what I've seen, I don't think they've even considered adding any more wards just the possibility of getting rid of inactive. >.<

I will be very disappointed in SE if they consider 2nd housing. O.O

Some FC's can't even get one house because of the lack of plots. This would be very unfair.

[Parodine]

They haven't added new plots in over a year, it feels like. They need to address that before anything else really.

[Frizbeez]

Yes, I do feel a housing upgrade is a more logical approach. One major thing that is keeping us from buying a Large plot from other inactive FC are because of the unique furnitures and our airships. Don't really want to spend the gil and time for those all over again

I dunno why anyone would be getting mad about an FC wanting to upgrade. If they upgrade to a Large, that leaves a Small or Medium (whichever they happen to already have) open for someone else to buy. Losing furniture items is the whole reason I haven't upgraded my personal house from a Small or upgraded our Free Company house from a Medium. I don't want to lose the furnishings. :c

As for an FC being able to own a second house, there's absolutely no reason for it.
