    Agreed 100%. Complete apathy and poor leadership.

I remember before when SE changed sky that some code they used caused virus scanners to stop the connection, there could be something similar with dynamis D zones, that some special code is triggering your virus scanner and then the virus scanner is stopping the connection, thereby causing you to DC.
    I’ll try it thanks

    Ls mate suggested this too and I did it. Same issue. Uninstalled and reinstalled game now and had one successful run without crashes. I’m at a loss as to the cause and wonder if other zones will work.

    I've never seen anything like that.

    You should seriously consider doing a file check at the playonline login menu.

    I did that and same issues. I even uninstalled and reinstalled which I am now able to enter divergence sandy zone without crashing... will check to see if the others hold up after lockout.

    What blows my mind here is that I can play latest gen games with no issues... battlefield v and starcraft 2, things like that. Then, ffxi has these issues, none of which is my hardware or firewall like SE tech suggested.

    It's not so crazy when you realize the hardware that this game was designed to support. The PS2 was the hot new gaming console when this game came out, and the PS5 is now on its way. Newer versions of windows are making it harder anad harder to get old software to run correctly.
