Problems with party members disappearing for Ps3 users

Fix is coming with PS4

I have this issue with Titan and any coil turn, It's unplayable seeing half of your team mates invisible especially the tank as you can't tell what mob people are concentrating on. What's funny is seeing a monster being pulled out of nowhere while your tank is nowhere to be seen. Very annoying bug, Re-logging doesn't help for me either and the bug resumes after a wipe. Hope this issue gets fixed ASAP!
This makes me feel that CT is going to be a lag-fest of epic proportions . :/

Earlier in Haukke Manor, I've seen BOSSES disappearing instead of the players... Return doesnt work and had to endure it, worked well, but hated going blind lol

Yeah happened to me too with bosses and party members. I often times ask if someone left because I only see 2 people beside me.

Neat, this thread's up again. Nice to know that, just maybe, SE might explain this...

If I had the option to, I would. But with the modem in another room entirely, me not having the money for an ethernet cord long enough for that, as well as any attempt to get permission to do this with the other people I live with doomed to failure... yeah, that's not happening.

Even then, that's a lot of brouhaha for just this game, and that's if a wireless connection is the problem in the first place.

I hope it isn't, or this'll be a problem for some of people with wireless PS3s and PCs :/

I will try the wired connection thing.

I have had this happen twice in dungeons. The one with dragons (Stone Vigil?), and the outdoor one with.... er, dragons? There are two not very palatable workarounds for healers:

1. Use group heals, this hits them
2. Relog

The second works, but if you're in a PUG no guaranteeing they'll wait for you.

It's not. I'm wired TWC high-speed and it's happened to me several times.

Hey all,

We've confirmed this bug with the development team who are currently looking into addressing it.

AOE heals does work, but sucks in general. Also, I have relogged to have it fix the problem 100% of the time, however it just comes back randomly :( I also wanted to chime in to say that you can relog and not lose your spot in the duty finder. :)

Sweet dear baby Jeebus, praise be!

This has happened to me in Coil. Terribly embarrassing :P

The snake splits into 2, but they both remain next to each other not merging on my screen...when it comes to switching to the alternate snake on the other side of the arena I couldn't do anything - and we would've won if I could've contributed my DPS.

In Turn 2 I often get this with party members being invisible / stuck at entrance when of course they're actually right there with me. Having to run to a specific player to pass Allagan Rot when you can't see anyone else is quite a problem! It's pretty game-breaking and I pray it gets fixed swiftly.

This has been happening pretty much since launch for me and they are only NOW realizing this? lol

Yeah, PS3 user here and it's happened a few times for me. First time it happened was back in August or September in Stone Vigil, tank disappeared (luckily this was before I switched from BRD to WHM main). Next time I recall it happening was in WP, FC mate got locked at the start of the dungeon. Made it through without wiping thanks to Medica II. Couldn't target him since his body was locked at the entrance, but Medica II still hits them. If he had been the tank, however, he probably would have died and it would have fixed the glitch.

Very glad to see this. The bug is fairly annoying when it happens, especially for us healers =p

Hooray! Great news!

Quick update on this: I didn't play too much for a couple months before 2.1(Just rushing the events, mostly. :x), but the issue definitely appears to have been fixed. Not only has Jojobo, my Chocobo, been able to continue staying by my side, but I was able to go through a dungeon all the way through without any party members or enemies being frozen in place in the client!

I think it's this hotfix that addressed the problem.

Thanks, SE, for making this game playable for people again... er, *more* playable, I guess.
