Moving Feature

[Masekase_Hurricane]

Here are the questions I posted, hoping to get answered:


Unfortunately they went with a generic all encompassing question that I was specifically avoiding because the answers tend to be vague and lead to rumors. What was asked and answered:



So we still don't know for sure if it's FC only, we don't know if we can move between plot sizes, we don't know what happens with the furniture although new storage was mentioned, we now know the move feature will be ready when the houses are and we can assume the cost will be the same as purchasing a plot.

They answered about plot sizes. If you move from a small to a big your housing items get put into temporary storage.

Maybe it didn't get jotted down in the write-up? I just got up so I snagged that before starting the morning routine. Will have to watch the actual live letter in a bit.

Also of interest in the write-up:

Q2: Is the timing for purchasing plots in Shirogane the same for free companies and individual players?

A2: We are currently in the middle of investigating how much of the player population owns housing, so this is still being decided.

edit: Well it looks like I won't be watching it because it's apparently been scrubbed from the net.

This is quoted verbatim from an UNOFFICIAL source and offers a little more clarity.

Thanks to Mrhappy and his friend who interprets, Markoturn.

"Q1 – Can you please give us more information about the moving system since we are getting Shirogane in the expansion?

A: As a reminder, while Shirogane will be there from the beginning of the expansion but you will need to wait a few weeks before you can buy land there.

The moving system will be live as soon as land can be purchases (sic) in Shirogane.

To move, go to the land you want to buy and buy it. If you already have land/a house it will give you a text pop-up asking you if you'd like to move your house to the new estate and relinquish the old land.

If the land is the same size and (sic) the previous land you owned, the house will just move. If the size is different, all of the furniture will go into a warehouse reserve, so it is not lost. Private rooms, workshops, stables, everything will move without issue.

They are still discussing if they want FCs and individual players to have the move feature unlocked at the same time.

Prices of the houses: Just look at the current prices!"

Mr. happy mentioned it , although SE might have left it off the notes or it was mistranslated by Mr. Happy .

Well, at least we've learned that there will be a "warehouse" feature that auto-stores the furniture etc if you choose to "move" to Shirogane. No scrambling around trying to make more space in retainers or in fc banks or in our own inventory to store the existing. The housing plot prices will be the same. We can choose move and change the size of the plot as long as we have the funds to pay for it. I thought I saw them say that apartments will be able to move there, too. But I'm not sure. I'm kind of encouraged with the news that they are thinking of dropping the existing gil limit if you choose to transfer to another server. No mention of new wards, etc. I guess it's too soon. If it's a log on rush at a certain time when it opens, Gilgamesh will be a mess.
