Extremes are never good, never a true resolution, compromises need to be made, it is time they look at the coding. No reason to wait eons for lusterate to work, and monsters get no animation delay.

Not entirly true, many bosses have animation delays, which is why groups dont wipe on ultima in dun scaith when supernova goes off just before he dies.

Not saying it's the players' fault for the lag, but it sounds like it's something on their end opposed to on the data center end

It is also knowing what I am talking about:
http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ues-Irrelevant!
What I am talking about also exists as low as 35 ping (from who I talk to) and the people that seem to understand are calling it "intentional delays" Why are they there? what purpose do they serve other then annoying people that can see them that happen to increase in problems as the ping increases for anything over 70 ms.

can you see the "lag" here? that is what I am talking about.

East coast player.. 0 issues. not even a blip of an increase in ping. Fix your own stuff players.

I went from 100-110 to 200-220... Germany

The game feels "ok" while half america is still asleep and EU is at work but in EU prime time i can always count "one... two..." before i see anything happen :(

So I just checked my ping. 250-290. Game is still 100% perfectly playable, but then I never really experienced 0 ping so I have no idea what I've been missing~

You can't see if something responds slow? I saw it at 30 ms =.= =/

Well... I first started FFXIV on the PS3, so my biggest issue was dealing with lag (hence my response to the Titan gif. That was frustrating). Then the PS4 version came out and I got that and my latency 'improved' and then I got a gaming PC and noticed even less latency (or it was all a placebo).

Basically, the changes I noticed were based on the systems I've played FFXIV on. Once I got on the PC, my latency seemingly improved and I haven't had any issues with anything in game (save for the occasional hiccup when everyone starts port-running and my Sharpcast buff doesn't activate when I use it). I also mostly only play BLM and my oGCD's aren't as frequent as other Jobs.

If things like this happened more often, then I would be VERY annoyed (this is the Sharpcast not happening despite it going on cooldown). This happened during a surprise lag spike.

Under-rated post.

It's like I'm always slightly lagging now....I am not very happy.

Like clicking Rapid Fire only to start casting. Not to mention almost every oGCD causes clipping with my next GCD....rip any and all double oGCDs.


Oh numbers....115ish, was 80. I am quite surprised the difference is so noticeable tbh. East coast FL.
