game feels sluggish/slower....anyone else?

So I logged on yesterday after a 4 day hiatus (computer problems) and there I am in limsa...running and sprinting and it feels slow....my muscle memory anticipates a global cooldown to be up and it's not....the only thing different is that this time my cpu is running at 3.1 and not 3.9 ghz....would that happen???

My wireless controller has been slugging/lagging. I don't know why, or if it's the game because i haven't tried another game, but it DID work fine before the patch.

So it's not just me?? My company mates think I'm crazy, but the pace of combat and movement feels like it's slower...like I need to push buttons harder to move at the pace I'm used pre 2.2

I helped someone with Titan story mode and Titan was kinda phasing back and forth instead of walking on a few occasions. Several small lag spikes. Everyone in the party witnessed it, too.

3.9 - > 3.1 most likely, you seemed to have a failed overclock, reclock it back up to 3.9 and see if its stable again.

I'm trying it out as we speak. I'll keep you posted

Server load has also increased dramatically with new players joining and old ones returning suddenly to see patch 2.2. There was some hiccups last night in the major cities and the newer instances due to the amount of people (open world maps were ok though, as usual).

Yes i have been experiencing more lag since the patch.. ive even froze out once for the first time. Im on a ps3. Also my controller seems unresponsive at times. Ill click a button like tomahawk or overpower and the first clip of the animation will go off like i activated the skill but then all of a sudden it will cancel and wont go off.. pretty frustrating when you got dps kings ripping threat off you

I noticed that too, while doing a /beckon leve quest, that I'm normally quite fast at and good at keeping him moving almost constantly... But this time I was having to stop and wait for him to catch up and get things going again.
