Was the 0.3 second delay fixed?

I never had this problem before nor now so I can't really judge. I've always been able to get out and if i didn't i knew it was my fault. Can anyone (Sunri?) who had this problem before the patch comment here and let me know if it has been fixed?

Haven't heard a peep about it since the patch dropped so I figured it was a good sign, unless everyone was too busy fuming over the "Free Company Housing is too expensive" bandwagon. These things seem to come in waves, usually roar along for a while then disappear without a trace, rarely a "Hey! You fixed this! Thanks!".

The Thread topic was one that came and went as it seemed to be a persistent issue for some people (but not for others) so it would come and go. I do hope this has been fixed enough for people to be able to enjoy the game regardless of their hardware or connection.

It's difficult to prove it, but i feel that dodging Titan's AoE is a lot easier now.
So I'll say yes, they changed something.

Supposedly they increased the rate at which the client checks with the server to 0.1. I wouldn't call it "fixed", as it's still rather backwards and can totally result in getting hit in AoE you're not standing in (something I ran into repeatedly yesterday when I don't normally), but it's... improved?

I can't say. I've been having problems downloading the patch because my router is blocking the ports that need to be open, and the password to login to the router isn't working, not even after a factory reset of the modem/router hybrid, so have to call a tech to the house to see what's up. A friend is currently torrenting the game to me so I can even play it.

I saw one report of it still happening since the patch. I would expect it to be improved but not fixed. What they did was increase the amount the client sends information to the server.. so an improvement should be visible. However people with packet loss or latency hiccups will still likely get hit sometimes. A complete fix would require them to re-work the programming, which would take a very long time and a lot of money. Unlikely to happen.

The lull in uproar wasn't cause it stopped happening, just btw, it was because Yoshida actually addressed it in the Live Letter, which is all the majority of us wanted.

I would expect myself not to run into it anymore, just as a note, because it never really hit me bad to begin with. Usually I'm out of things before the 90% bar.

TL;DR Most people should see a noticeable improvement in their ability to dodge, but it will still be possible to get hit by AOEs you're out of.

I don't know I had no problems before but trying to play PvP is like having a visual seizure.

Yes, it was fixed. I did titan today and it went really well. I was able to dodge everything.

Fought Titan before and after. I didn't really detect an issue, but I didn't have much of one before the patch, so I'm not the best to ask.

However, I can say that temporarily invincibility on raise makes timing raises much, much more forgiving.

It's fixed in certain instances, I think. Sometimes I still see it happening, like when DPS get targeted by last boss of Copperbell HM. Wouldn't say it's fixed but it seems to have improved in some places.

my connection got fixed, went from good to excellent

Patch notes state that the position update frequency interval was only reduced for the trials (primal fights) and PVP and that they would be monitoring its effect on server performance before expanding it to other instance types.

I noticed it felt a little easier, people would still get hit though but some people can't dodge.

It has improved a great deal for me. I've had no issues dodging anything whatsoever in the past day or so. Anything I haven't has been my fault. Before the patch I didn't have much of an issue but on fights like Titan HM with a lot of visuals causing lowered frame rates going on it was hit or miss sometimes. As of now it's working like it should all around for me. If I'm out, I'm out. If I'm not then I'm not. There have been occasional lag spikes but that's nothing unusual.

It seems to have been fixed in trials and Coil only. Same bs going on the rest.

Yeah, time will tell if it's still cause of positions not updating or skill. Hopefully we're getting into an area now where for the large part, it's just players skill and not the other way around.

being on a 1mbps line and having to learn to pre-dodge everything i can say YES it has been fixed.. seeing Ultima's ifrit plume hit the ground with me in the middle of it and being able to run out of it without casting to update my position felt amazing lol

Hope the good news keeps pouring in :D I finally got the game started up thanks to my buddy. Waiting on CT fates now.

Thank you for the reply! :)

Sorry I got your name wrong. I totally realize the "uproar" (poor choice of words on my part, sorry) was mostly about the uncertainty. It felt like the complaint was being ignored and it was a critical issue for those experiencing it.

I'm glad you got your answer and that the fix, of sorts, has at least made it more playable.

I was actually kinda honored you even remembered me. :) I was stuck not playing the game, so I've been browsing the forums trying to get my 2.1 fix, and you got it close enough that I figured it was directed at me. Glad I got it right and I wasn't just being full of myself!

No problem, I've been on here for a long time and I'm under a different name now. Using my sons account cause the toxicity of the forums my other account banned from posting here. But thats a long boring story.

Anyway, the reasion I rememberd you was your level headed and articulate posts. That was the kind of environment I was trying to foster. You can acheive more if listening goes on on both sides, as i'm sure you would agree. take care~!
