Unplayable Game

[Amiantos]

Even if is good ping, why I still getting spikes? That's the question. Also, doesn't matetr to me if have 100 or 300 average, if game lag spike is unplayable even if you have 10 average! Also I'm not complaining about Titan, since I cleared it, I'm complaining about is impossible play now on evening, and is evening that friends start play.

I understand you're not complaining about Titan I'm just saying that calling it unplayable because of certain lag spikes is a bit over the top. I've personally have not noticed lag spikes on my server even when it's supposed to be peak play time/ramping up to be peak play time in the states. I'd maybe check your ethernet ports, maybe the cables are going bad that you have. Could even be something with your ISP if it's peak playing time in game it wouldn't be too far fetched that the ISP for your area is getting hit heavily too for internet usage in general. What type of internet do you use is another question. DSL your wiring might be going bad in your walls which can lead to having packet loss.

The problem you need to understand is this...(I'm bolding this not because I'm angry but to put attention to this part)

Everything worked fine for everyone from FFXIV 1.0 till FFXIV Beta->Early launch. The lagspikes suddenly appeared for tons of people out of nowhere and is only affecting FFXIV:ARR. Which again worked perfectly until a certain date.

I for one don't understand how it suddenly became an ISP issue when my and others people connection worked flawlessly. And I also don't understand why S-E isn't adressing the elephant in the room. It would be nice if they clearly stated what we should be doing to fix this issue. In my case, it even seems to be getting worse over time. The last few days, I had R0(lagspikes) that kept leading into d/c, rinse and repeat.

Sorry to hear that, I played 1.0 myself and had no issues and still have no issues outside of my bases internet itself. I'm curious to why it effects certain people and not others though. Am I saying there's no issue? No I'm just curious to why certain people are effected and others are not while playing on the same data center/servers. I always tend to assume that a small portion could be attributed to the users issues.

Then everyone would have broken ISP? Come on, I said I can play fine any other MORPG like PSO2 in JAPAN without a single lag, and could play before as well. Sicne you never noticed lag spikes, you don't know how is unplayable the game. I hope you never get any of it, since getting it every damn evening when ppl trying log in (if you dc or reboot game you will notice queue for wait to log) is absurd. I don't know, ppl want always protect SE, it's always fault of players to me for certain ppl, but what if is SE PROBLEM? Also, I can't afford to change ISP, and I don't see why I should since until weeks ago was working fine. As someone pointed, I seen the thread with lot of ppl having same lag spike problems. So, is me or is SE? My friend changed to fiber and still getting spike lags that he had to use Pingzapper... also why community rep can't give any info about it? I know you reading Camate or whoever else.

Guess most my FC that I've talked to, my ls and myself are nobodies since you mentioned "everyone" having this issue. I try to mention things to check to see if maybe those are things that could be wrong on your end and you get snippy Never did I say I their servers were perfect, I know very well they're a far cry from perfect as they go down easier than the titanic. But to say "everyone" is having said issues is again over the top. Not everyone uses the forums as a main way to converse about the game unless it's something like the log in issue that 23k+ people had and they only used it to post that issue and went back to their main site they use and even then others still didn't use it even when they had the issue.
