omg lag

I have never known lag and disconnect issues like this before as soon as I try and do the new trial what the hell is going on here

I am having the same issue it is anywhere though...everything is speeding up slowing down. I could not even see the NPCs for all the lag, only since i have updated today.

Did a WOD and other raids it was awful but even in towns and in general it is bad. Not DC just massive lag spikes and loading issue.

Be interesting to see if others having issues.

No problems, here o.o

ISP: Telus
Country: Canada
Platform: PS4

Same on my end, lots of lag spikes. (with Virgin Media also) Everything was fine yesterday, before patch. My connection seems fine. Could just be a patch day thing, lots of people on or something. In any case, hope it gets sorted soon I had a hard time healing through Keeper of the Lake due to the lag spikes.

I'm the same, I didn't have any lag earlier in the day but this evening it's been dreadful. Everyone keeps stopping for a few seconds and then they would be in a completely different place, not to mention all the dc's I'm getting /: I would think maybe it's just me but multiple people in my FC are having this issue.

I'm experiencing EXTREME lag in chocobo racing making it impossible to play and also dungeons, I'm with Virgin Media, Balmung Server, UK.
It was fine before the update!

Also with Virgin Media in the Uk. I thought maybe it was because of patch day but it is quite bad everything just stopping and starting, usually its just a little bit of lag because of extra people but nothing like this :(

Same here. Also Virgin Media in the UK.

I also got one huge lag spike during the new Trial. Everything just stopped but I can keep casting with no result. A few seconds later things just flashed by like fast forwarding a video and I die to AoE. Everything's smooth everywhere else.

Same, I'm on Virgin Media also.

Same here, also on virgin media, i'm now getting an 'you can not spawn anymore monsters' error when trying to do a main story quest

It might take a little while, but you just need to keep running in and out of the circle to spawn the enemies you need to kill. You're most likely getting the error because so many people are doing the new quests.

Also lagging here.

Virgin Media UK
Cerberus server

I tried the VM website but it won't load at all so I Tweeted them, judging by their Twitter feed it seems that pretty much the whole country is having issues. VM are aware and are investigating.

Same here Virgin Media and lagging like hell today

Many people on Twitter are reporting connections coming back on and games having no lag now. Hopefully it's all sorted.

Sorted? No, no, no. It's just getting late so the congestion is dying down (imo). It's the same problem as we had last patch, and I'll bet we'll have it all over again when Heavensward goes live.

There's also a thread in Technical Support btw with links to VM forums:

VM thread 1

VM thread 2

Clicky, clicky!

edit: If one of the posters on the VM forums is correct, it looks like a routing/Cogent problem. :/

I am a very sad Lalafell.

Nopes. After not doing much apart from main story quests & the related trial which I didn't complete (I lagged so hard I DC'd. We wiped, so I left. It wasn't fair on the rest of the party) earlier in the evening, I joined a hunt in the hopes that the lag had cleared up enough (Western Than A Rank). I'm just glad I wasn't melee. Huge spikes still.

edit: and it wasn't even that big a hunt group.

No. I did a chocobo Race while it didn't seem as bad as earlier it did still lag a lot, I guess like someone said congestion is probably less, however i did get 90002 error while idling. Thats twice today, I rarely get DC errors.

Same thing happening for me earlier, I stopped playing because of all the lag and crashes.

Also Virgin Media UK.

I am having the same problem like.. glitching... players like teleporting from one place to another, like massive lag :o

I was having lag issues and disconnected from the server a couple of time 3-4 days ago.
