Any other thoughts? I like hearing what other people have to add.

I'll tell you what you missed. Everything on that front page of yours is fine an dandy for good criticism but there is a HIGE amount of us who can't even experience that. You wanna know why? Because we're crippled by both latency issues and terrible routing to go with. Why is there no mention of the latency issues? Or the poor routing between ISP's and this game in certain locations??

I don't really experience that myself, but that is another one yes. I was talking about mainly the the game core mechanics as a whole, not the terrible way the servers were setup.

Yup I know you are, but I feel like this problem does tie into the others outlined. A lot of us can't experience the core mechanics due to frequent rubberbanding (why the servers are in CA for NA I dunno) I feel personally that this and feedback regarding this and other issues should be included as needing a fix. I cannot speak for you all but I can for people in my own spot. I don't know how long we'll be around.

On top of the issues outlined in your topic we're dealing with people in denial of our problems, blame passing, no response in a 170p sticky, and all the stuff you've mention on page 1. I dunno I'm just venting I guess feels like it's all gonna get rug swept anyway. I'm just not masochistic enough to pay someone to make me a sandwich step on it a and then hand it to me. And that is what this service feels like ATM.

I know the feels. I was on Aegis (JP) in the beta and retail until the free server transfers due to my legacy char originally being on there. Titan probably made me clairvoyant trying to dodge his attacks. It's funny though, there is still a delay even after I xfered to NA servers. I am in Toronto, 500km away from the NA data center, and still see weird synch delays with spells. IE, I'd cast a spell, move when 3/4 of the cast bar is done, and it would still fire.

Sounds like the connection seemed to have gotten worse, I quit playing quite awhile ago and I never experienced or heard of it much. I wonder if it did get worse.
