FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE FIX THIS MASSIVE LAG PROBLEM!

[ntall1]

You know, I came to realize that those of you suffering from this probably aren't going to see relief.

I have my own theory, course I know lots of people will disagree and start throwing all sorts of "throttling" and server this issues at me, but the fact is you won't get help because you are ALL (including myself) 2nd class customers.

I am aware I run the risk of mysteriously disappearing for this, but it's pretty clear so far, given the ENDLESS complaints of poor customer service. I think the problem is we all live in the wrong place.

SE reminds me so much of Capcom its not even funny.

At least 90% of Capcoms games were good.......

90%? that's kind of exaggerating a bit...

After looking at the list I have decided to stick with the 90% estamate. Capcom only started sucking on the next gen games, but I guess that's when Square started sucking too. Lets face it.. We are in an age of crap gaming.

So far I've only had this issue with the Cutter's Cry Dungeon. It was so bad that the dungeon was completely un-doable and I had to quit since I was just dragging the party down. I would constantly get hit with attacks that don't show up on the screen and I would randomly die.

I know it can't be a connection issue, I had no problems doing CM that day and thankfully the lag didn't get affect my Dhrome Chimera fight.

After talking with my ISP and spending hours this week end reading about this issue, it appears to be a dead-end type of situation where as usual the costumers get shafted.

Square Enix can not despite what they told me in support "work on this", the issue is not in their hands, but in the hands of who they choose to work with. This lag problem has been going on for months at least in my country (France) and it is in fact across many major games such as: Diablo 3, Star craft 2, World of warcraft, SWTOR... The HUGE difference is that the companies involved namely Blizzard and EA Bioware have COMMUNICATED with their costumers, even better they did so in many languages, not just english like SE who seems to only work with Japanese players. The SWTOR french support even issued strong statement that they were pressuring the ISPs as much as they could, it is costing them business and unlike SE they care about their money A LOT.

Sure Blizzard and EA haven't been able to fix it, at first they blamed the ISP who in return blamed Blizzard/EA. It is now obvious that the trouble is of simple matter.. The only thing that matters for those people in fact: Money. ISPs want someone to pay for the increased traffic but they don't want to put it on our backs (they would loose too many wallets), the middle men like Cogent-Tata want more money or they just leave the traffic completly screwed up and Blizzard/EA or even Gooogle won't spend a dime either.. So they are all standing still waiting for one to crack, while we are paying them and are the ones left in the dirt.

That's the schematic of all that i gathered across 5 major games forums, a phone call to nice guy from my ISP who explained their side of the story to me instead of serving me the usual "everything is fine check with the game producers"..

TLDR: IF you are affected by major lags everyday from a ecertain hour to another, you can unsubscribe right now because this won't be fixed in the near future unless SE opens their wallet.. Would you bet on that?

Granted, however, since the network 'fix' on the 21st many people who were not affected now are (reading the newer posts). I myself had no real issue, but since that 'fix' on the 21st I have not been able to play at all. Logically, since the 'fix' has been the only thing to change, it would suggest the problem is related to something SE did.

I actually find Guildwars 2 laggy as hell..but so is FFXIV

[homunyan]

I dont have much lag in FFXIV and I live on the west coast which is pretty far away from the servers. I dunno why so many people have lag but I don't.

What I find funny, Is every time they do maint, rubber banding and lag comes back... makes me laugh
