devs attitude to players

[Nooblet]

Its more likely your computer or whatever you are playing the game on(not sure how PS3 fares) I've heard frame rates effect it, and have noticing it being harder to dodge when plumes are stacked, as it gives a small hiccup in fps, though still very avoidable. I play on VERY unstable connection with very high ping at various hotels as i travel for work. I have no issues dodging anything from titan. I also tether to my phone at times, and have no issue there either. You also have to get used to the cast bars(not animations). It might help if they synced the graphics to the damage a little better,instead of giving a false sense of dodging something you didn't, but its definitely something you can avoid.

I would have more sympathy.. but I felt the same way while i was learning the fight the first several times, till I got the rotations down, and saw that the cast times and animations don't align. And now I have 0 issues avoiding.

It's probably because you're a computer player. I'm on the PS3 and I don't get hit by anything..

I will be honest though...I remember when I first started Titan that I used to blame lag too.

Inability to dodge is the least of your worries. The server eating buffs and abilities without ever executing them is a real problem. Complain about that.

yoshi's response to our complaints about lag in fights (mainly titan) as telling us to zoom out that we are bad players is very alarming and infuriating if this sort of attitude continues i don't see this game living on. this is not early 2000 anymore if you insult your customers they will leave.

if this is true then yoshida is nothing more than tanaka 2.0 now

I find it a bit humorous that since Yoshi-"L2P" has taken the reigns of FFXIV, he has completely turned it around from the failure it was in 1.0; but the second he says something "we" don't agree with, he's the one that's wrong.

I'm not saying the man is infallible, but he MIGHT just know what he's talking about.

Developers who refuse to defend their own product and cave to the communities outcries about things being too difficult or not good enough end up with boring, homogenized games. Case in point, WoW.

Had it happen the other day to me in WP on the first boss. Me and the other two that were dodging the circles kept getting hit even though we were out almost as soon as they were around us. So yes it happened to the whole group and therefore on server side. This is the first time I had an issue with this boss.

Start a craft, launch a quick synthesis. Then stop it. You will see three to four additional synthesis complete before the action stops, if you spam the stop button.

What does that have to do with combat? It's a player test of server side delay. If you can't stop a quick synthesis on command, don't even bother trying to do HM dungeons. The fail factor will drive you crazy.

Great thing about that gif is you can clearly see the person is standing in the landslide. The delay for moving out of area of effect abilities works the same EVERYWHERE. If you're still in the red when the cast finishes, you're gonna get hit, regardless of if you aren't there when the animation plays. 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".
