I play on Sargatanas (NA/EU) & I have not encountered any lag in game whatsoever. Nor have I heard of any LS mates encountering problems. So, how exactly does that make me a "White Knight"?

Doing titan hardmode right now, getting constant freeze lag, half the raid is lagging, almost imposisble to kill him.

Haven't had the issue at all, and non of my FC members have mentioned it yet. I'm on Balmung.

That said I have read a lot of info that suggests ISP's aren't routing the game correctly. This could be your ISP's fault. I intended to try a gaming VPN tonight just to see if I can even notice a difference.

Registered to comment.

I have a fiber connection at home in the boondocks of the US. Fast, I'm not competing in a dense community for bandwidth.

My LS understands my lag issues but I decided to do a few Ifrit parties using the Duty Finder Option. Ifrit is a very easy battle if you know the pattern. Garuda is easy too, once I figured it out.

My lag is horrible and some random jerks personally insult me. I am always far out of the cast area. I STILL get hit. Ifrit charges, I'm in the clear--HIT. Screen is fine, still hit. I've used Follow Target to see the cast.

It's driving me crazy and I don't want to get yelled at again or called names.

I was happy one time a person called me slow. That moment, my lag was bearable and I dodged everything. I raised that person 4 times, as he/she died after their comments. Karma...

I want to do Titan but if my lag is bad on Ifrit, an easy fight, there is no way at all that I can ever, ever beat Titan.

Add another .3 seconds to attacks. It will make fights super easy for good systems. But for the bottom end like mine and other players I've witnessed 'dead move', would be fine.

yes im having lagg anywhare since last maintenance... every action has 5 to 10 secods of delay its terrible skills sometimes dont work at all... and sometimes the skill start and its stop sudenly... im gladiator and gladiator dont get interupted just cuss.... nothing hapens.. weird! same whit potions, i have to tap the potion like mad for 5 seconds to make it work, its really terible.. NA servers PS3*

Actually this isn't the forum for that. The real one would be over here. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/f...hnical-Support

That outlook of yours is the exact reason why people get that way (or maybe just seem to). You're looking down on others immediately, profiling them in a stereotypical manner, just because they disagree with you. So many fingers to point, and none of them are pointed at the right person (yourself). That's not to say that those people aren't doing the exact same thing, not at all. But what's really "pathetic" is when both parties can't seem to understand that they are either completely or partially at fault. Growing as a person is sadly harder to do for some people than curing cancer.

What lag? Seriously.

Still getting lag. Cable modem hard wired into router, just pulled speed test of 30 down/7 up and still getting 5-10 second lag in duty finder server and 2-5 second in game server on Exodus. The server has many players complaining about lag both in duty finder instances and in regular game.

This is not an ISP issue. This is a server side issue.

I repeat, FIX YOUR SERVERS.

I have the same issue and so does a few of my friends and FC members. Seems to come and go at the same time for us all, and we have different ISPs and live in different countries. Please look into this issue!

In Sunken City right now and lag is so bad two different players have went link dead. TWO DIFFERENT people. Please fix the lag!

Yay another lag thread! I'll gladly keep posting in these so they keep getting attention. So the other day I told my LS about my lag. To my shock, I got ganged up on and the 3-4 people talking to me all weren't having any of these lag problems and one even went as far as to basically blame me for my lag issues. She/he went on to say because I'm on the east coast NA, then that's why I'm getting lag and I should've picked a different server. Um.. 1. I'm legacy, so limitations there, and 2. I like Balmung. Wtf? Don't you just love people? It tickles me when people just assume because they aren't having the issue then it's not an issue. -_- I've yet to try chimera again because of all the lag the party and I were getting during the fight - we never beat it due to lag.

Just had to kill hardmode titan while getting freeze lag constantly for my WHM's relic, I killed him and I'm amazed I didn't die but seriously, FIX THIS ISSUE NOW SE.

I'm now doing AK and getting even worse lag, I might not be able to play this game anymore at this rate. Half my LS, shout chat, and FC are all getting lag. It's a VERY widespread issue, FIX IT.

...or else it gets the hose again?

I've wrote SE an e-mail about the issue after speaking twice to my ISP and doing about every possible thing software/hardware wise to erase the tiny possibility it is actually me.
I provided them with all the data from my checks/rig and the data I got from my ISP Ziggo where I got a 160Mb/s cable connection and no they don't throttle.
Now I got a polite letter back from them , though more than a week later.
Also this is the first game I ever had these problems with.

This is pretty much what I got from them.

We have performed a North American and European Worlds Maintenance on September 19, and we hope the service has improved by now. If not, you may wish to review the general troubleshooting steps outlined in this email that should be of use if you are having difficulties with the initial game connection or are experiencing intermittent lag spikes.

Simply put they fixed the problem if you still got spikes it's your Rig/ISP.
I don't buy it but well that's what they claim.

Hm... 101%... something is wrong with this. xD

Isn't it great that SE responds and promptly fixes game breaking issues? And the Gil spam is getting better, right?
/sarcasm
No really....should I sub when my thirty days expires??
The map hacking gathering bots, and the gil spam are telling me this game has customer service/dev's that can't be bothered to assure quality, now I read this about end game, and the thread goes on and on with no dev response.

Problem on our ISP end? Hardly. See above for verification.

Square; Rerouting traffic away from these backbones will help the latency issues and free up some breathing room for your already taxed server ports. This is what's called a WIN-WIN situation.

If Ormuco doesn't want to do that, I suggest you get a new fiber provider as they are obviously slow to do any kind of fix and is costing you money.

For everyone affected by latency; Some ISP's have the ability to route your connection around nodes that are having obvious issues. It may be worth a shot to request that you not connect to anything as6453.net (aka TATA COMMUNICATIONS). ISP's don't always do this for users and you are basically at the ISP's mercy and also under the condition that there are different node connections that will jump you to the same end IP.

Amen. It's like, their experience is fine, so we should STFU. But instead, we post about our issues, hoping for resolution and they hijack our thread. Please if you are not having the issue, stay out of it. You offer nothing when you tell the world your game is great.

It started about 1 1/2 weeks ago for me. I have it during peak time NA on Balmung server a lot of the time. I get everything freezes the speeds up real fast then freezes the speeds up the freezes the speeds up. I thought it was all me because some other people didn't have it. I tried three different modems, changed out my cables, had a technician out to check the line, tried playing through a VPN, opened up FFXIV ports. I still get it at times even though my net is really stable at the moment.

I was able to get titan complete but only by memorizing his move patterns and with some help from friends who were also amazing at dodging through the lag.

Freeze fast forward freeze fast forward freeze fast forward over and over and over.

Keep encouraging everyone who has it to come to the forum and post. We need some feedback on this.
