Moving Feature

[ProjectT]

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.

I really hope they make Shirogane FC-purchase/transfer only when it initially launches.

I'm happy to hear that company workshop/airships/personal rooms are transferred with no fuss, no muss. After hearing countless horror stories on these forums about FCs being unable to move because 1 person had 1 item left in their personal room, or having to start from scratch on workshops and airships, it's nice to know that future FCs won't have to go through that pain.

I'm definitely looking forward to hearing more details, but that one piece of news has made my outlook on the move feature a lot more optimistic.

I had to kick an offline member from my fc because her chocobo was in the stable and we couldn't relinquish the small plot.

It definitely is very stressful moving from one plot to another, even if it's at a silly hour where very few are awake. There's always that small chance that the plot you want may be taken before you go there, and the plot you had be taken when you get back. It's not something I ever want to experience again, and thankfully won't have to.
