Maybe I just never noticed the actual speed of it before. As for movement speed during combat and such though, I'm dodging AoEs and everything just as I always have, so that's why I said I haven't seen an issue regarding the controller. I tried fighting on my SCH, DRG, and PLD, but nothing felt different.

Until my movement is being limited to where I'm getting hit by AoEs for no reason and such, then I'd say all is working as intended on my end.

Well, yeah. There's def degrees. My movement issues are also on the lower end (just needed to change my sensitivity by 10 and I mostly don't notice) but if you're having significant hang in any situation then you're experiencing it. Obv for your case (and mine too mostly) it's not as big a deal, but they're aware of it and it will hopefully be gone soon.

I'm dreading doing Titan EX and Levi EX. Heck, even Ifrit EX. Thankfully I don't need to do any of them again, anytime soon...yet.

yes this bug is very annoying, but I just cleared T6-T9 last night without issue. acid rain and lunar dynamo no issue.

I'm playing on the PS4, but this only seems to happen for my chocobo. I can run just fine personally, but poor Bo has a hitch in his step whenever I try to get off the line.

(Yes I also use a gamepad while lazy tanking..)

Lazy tanking?! Oh no! How will you ever dodge things now?

Oh man, I thought the response felt sluggish. THIS explains why I was having trouble with Titan HM's Landslides last night! I haven't missed a dodge since switching from a PS3 to a PS4.

And the Tanks were unforgiving with their comments. They even vote kicked someone who couldn't get out of any of the Weight of the Lands soon enough.

Hello, everyone.

The cause of this issue has been identified and the following is a follow-up from Hiroshi Minagawa.

We’ve identified the code causing the bug and as an emergency fix we will be reverting back to the previous version of the code, but we are currently checking to make sure that doing this will not cause other bugs to arise.

The cause was a latent bug with the formula that determines the threshold value for switching between running and walking, and we edited the program so that issues would not arise when adding new features in the future; however, the issue at hand arose as a by-product.

Currently, we’re performing checks and as long as there are no new bugs we expect to release an emergency patch tomorrow. Once everything has been confirmed we will be making an official announcement about the timing of the patch.

I apologize for the inconvenience in the meantime.

I've noticed movement problems right after the update. I thought it was just me being tired yesterday, but the issues continue! My melee feels slow as hell even with movement-speed buff. Glad the fix is coming tomorrow

How about don't tell people what should or shouldn't ruin a game for them? I won't be playing until this issue is fixed because it's incredibly noticeable, and has a dramatic effect on combat as a DRG. Call me crazy, but I tend not to enjoy games so much when a blatant bug is putting me at a jarring disadvantage.
