Pretty much how I feel right now. If they listened to everything they will just end up shutting down the servers again to remaking the game to FFXIV 3.0 where when you log in everything end game is sent to your mog house after making your character.

Who said anything about one shot? I'm talking about people who see someone in AOE but the person doesn't. There are people out there who are not patient with wiping. There needs to be some understanding of the learning process.

Agreed. People using the duty finder should never expect a 1 shot, or even 2 shot. If you're using the DF, then you should assume nobody has been there before. If you want a pre-made group to minimize screw-ups, then ask your FC or friends.

someone send yoshi to australia for awhile and force him to play on NA/EU servers.

Lag is not SE's fault, if it was, everyone would have it. I don't have it. Stop blaming the game for having a bad internet connection.

I've noticed a bit of a delay with these sort of attacks, and I have a 50mb/s internet plan so I know it's definitely not me.

I...hate that idea. The idea of any company that would just flat out tell their customer's they're wrong and they just have to "deal with it" is terrible for everyone in the long run.

What I would like to see is more open discussion between consumers and creators. Giving us good solid answers to our questions and listen to our own ideas. That way we can have a better understanding of the game itself and they get to help develop a game we actually really want to play.

But that can't happen because of the terrible choking demon of legal issues and copyright abuse.

If you're ever expecting it to work any other way, you're getting your hopes up for nothing, because the game wasn't designed to work that way. Learn how to play WITH the delay, rather than blaming "lag".

Watch it at normal speed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5g4TM1fkCg

We learned to play with the delay in 1.0. Please tell me why we still should in 2.0.

I agree with Xanj tbh. It is doable to kill titan and dodge aso but at times it's acting up something fierce. Like at some point i saw the stones explode in front i run there only to still get hit by the back stones when im already at titans feet on the other side. Stuff like that is very hard to predict and it is a known issue that since they only have servers in what Canada it's very far and causes problems at times. You can also see a distinct difference between doing titan not on prime time and on prime time.
