Sorry SE, but endgame won't work if you don't fix something.

So you're compensating for a lack of responsiveness inherent in the game's client->server structure.

That's a problem that needs to be fixed at best; and at worst horrible design.

I'm not saying it's fine, I'm saying that it's so bad it actually works reliably in the other direction where applicable. Like you can actually try to walk into Demon Wall's AE at the last moment and you'll actually fail every time due to lag. Of course you can't possibly do that to Weight (no way there's enough time for you to run away from it and then attempt to return), but it's an illustration of how consistently laggy this game is.

Back to the front page with you, where you need to be until this issue is addressed by SE.

Also, anyone else have any luck contacting SE via phone or live chat to ask about this yet?

Daily bump.

New developer session and no comment on this crippling problem. They did however focus on the error 90000 disconnect problem for international issues. So they care about us being logged in, but not about being able to play!

Bumping this for w/e is worth.
Disappointing how there is still no acknowledgement from SE's side of things on this issue.

I wonder if ping really has anything to do with it because I see Japanese players in the duty finder missing aoes worse than I do sometimes. This issue and the way endgame is designed in general is making me start to look for other games to play. It's a good thing for Square-Enix they have a while to fix it before I'm gone.

Latency contributes to this problem but it also does so for all online games, what makes FFXIV stand out is the extremely long intervals in which the server seems to poll client actions (we are guessing around 300ms) or perhaps it's the total lack of any predictive network algorithms, as SE refuses to comment at all about the situation it leaves us players speculating about the exact nature of the problem. It also leaves us speculating as well as whether or not it is worth it to resubscribe.

Bump, needs to be addressed or at least responded to.
