Idea to eliminate the need for Furniture storage in inventory:

CGPsaint

I own at least 15 houses. Three of them are completely decorated to the limit and the remaining houses are all full of furnishings that I'm storing for my next build. Do I need all of those furnishings? No. Is it nice to have a plethora of options when doing a build? Absolutely.

What OP is essentially suggesting is a furnishing bag. No matter how it is explained that is what it is.

This has been suggested many times by many people including myself. Zenimax answered this request a couple years ago with a solid no because it’s a performance drain. They noted that there is a lot more unique furnishings than there are crafting matts which is where the issue lies.

We can hope that after the server code re-write will improve performance enough that Zenimax will revisit such an idea.

I hope they don't consider this if it means that we lose something else for it, like what happened with Account Wide Achievements.

I called it "Deadlands Warehouse". It makes for an almost perfect warehouse. No annoying doors, like Grand Psijic, so it is easy to see across the whole plot. What would make it more perfect is a 1400 item limit, though.

what could we possibly lose if we got a furniture bag?

If it takes resources they have to come from somewhere.

Sever performance.

Hey, thanks for the furniture containers when we buy furniture packs from the crown store. BUT, a couple of requests: could you stack the furniture containers, of the same furniture pack eg Furnishing Pack: Aquatic Splendor containers all stack in our inventory as a single slot. Also, could we add the furniture containers to our banking slots for our other player houses?

Actually, server load would go down if furnishing bag was to be implemented. Right now servers have to store information about all the furniture placed in players' "warehouse" houses down to its exact position and angle. With the bag it would be as simple as "this player has those things in this quantity".

Just use one of your extra houses as storage.

I use my Psijic Villa as sort of a furniture swap meet. Whatever I am not using, I just place it in organized rows in the Villa. If I want something for one of my other homes, I just go "shopping" at the villa and grab what I like.

Some of us don't have 'extra' houses for our own personal Ikea. All i have are hotel rooms and they only hold like 15 or 30 items, and that fills up FAST, and is hard to see everything in such a tiny room.

My bank is stuffed with furniture stuff, as are my storage containers.

i have my main house, besides those hotel rooms and that's it. i've been since trying hard as i can to make gold to buy an Ikea property... but as it stands now, 1, 000, 000 is a lot of gold to make, and takes time for regular players.

If everyone had a huge property given to us, yeah sure, easy to say to use that.... but for new players who don't have real world money to blow on crowns and such, it's a laughable thing to say.

You can get and use the Hall of Lunar Champions as an attic. Just do the zone quests in Elswyer. It's free.

Yeah, I call it my attic, but yeah, that and the Hall of Lunar Champions.
