    Unplayable Lag

    Reportedly thousands of players have been experiencing lag since about Monday(pretty large post on reddit). Half of my raid in Coil last night was lagging so badly that we had to call it in turn 2 because we couldn't get interrupts off. Has SE posted anything about the lag or given us a notice as to why this is going on? It is simply not playable when the game freaks out like that. Anyone else experiencing these issues?

    Would be nice to have a response from a dev

    A few people from my FC, including myself, had this lag issue yesterday too.

    There is something wrong on the server end for sure.

    I can safely say, as cliche and over-used as it may be, I have an incredible computer
    and my internet connection is perfectly fine. No throttling, packet loss, etc. etc. etc.

    Tested all that, opened many other games/programs and such. No issues. Seems it's
    been this way since that last maintenance at midnight I believe? Really unfortunate,
    I was getting anywhere from 1 second to 6 seconds of the game coming to a complete
    halt before going hyper speed to catch up.

    Seemed to get better towards the evening time (8PM Pacific). Maybe because everyone
    was so fed up that they all logged early. Lol.

    In a way I am happy that more players are experiencing this. As of a few weeks ago players that complained about lag of this nature were responded to with "it's not happening to me so must be something on your end". The more people that experience these issues the more likely they are addressed (in theory, heh.)

    Yep same thing here last night. Somehow even with Garuda completely disappearing for some people for entire phases, we managed to beat her, but AK was completely unplayable.

    I had to tank AK earlier with near constant R0's. I guess I was the only one lagging because we were still able to beat it. The wall was reeeallly fun, luckily it didn't start to spike on it until after flies were down.

    In a fate group in northern thanalan yesterday, the entire Fate Train was lagging. E.g. we'd take off on chocobo's and the entire train would be stuck in place on my screen me lagging out, then the game would unfreeze and we'd be blink 10-20 yalms forward.

    We were having trouble last night with Lag on Titan as well. What was weird was that some of us had virtually no lag and others were spiking hard.

    This is what I experienced. We died 3 times on Demon Wall in AK before beating it last night because the entire team except for me was lagging. Mine was running just fine, but on vchat my team kept complaining about the terrible lag. Apparently on their screens I was still at the beginning of the dungeon but they could see my damage happening and my moves firing off out of thin air. And then when we got to final boss I future walked all the way up to them. Luckily the team stopped lagging enough for us to beat the dungeon, but we spent way more time than was necessary.

    I had a few of friends having lag issues yesterday, however I didn't notice any lag. Our issue may have been a routing issue instead of a server issue. I live very close to Montreal while my friends that were complaining live in US.
