And no, it's not our problems. When I can fire up Rift/WAR/Aion/Tera/GW2/Diablo 3/LoL and have zero problems, ever, then it is something SE has done differently.

Pretty sure SE wouldn't have requested this information for awhile now if there's zero possibility (as you just stated) of it being on our side. SE doesn't run our ISPs, yet it's known ISPs throttle P2P traffic which some reported affect their XIV gameplay. The only thing differently SE did was their packet handling and client design, which as we've proven is way more open than it should be.

Considering a full PC upgrade fixed my issues with this? It's not 'denial', it's the simple fact in my personal experience it's clear there's more variables than: "It's SE's fault." In my upgrade I didn't even change manufacturers, using newer parts by the same people. Nor did I touch my ISP package or modem/router.

Let me bold it for you.

Thanks for agreeing with me.

Yoshida himself said the issue would be fixed, and it isn't.

And then how about this thread in the accepted bugs forum:

You're putting your head in the sand because you, personally, can't see it. Good for you, it's going to pop up at one time or another because it effects everyone. Do you pre-move out of WotL in titan? Have the phases memorized? Have you done twintania? Moved during the last ~.5s of a cast and still completed it?

Go online, right now, and cast a spell while moving. Does the cast bar pop up, and does part of it start to cast? You do have the problem. I have not met a single person that could not see a cast bar pop up, and part of it cast, while moving.

I'm pretty sure Tupsi has the issue, though he doesn't want to admit it or fails to comprehend what it is. In about all games, if you are out of the telegraphed AE area visually, you dont' get hit at all. it doesn't matter if your reaction was slightly late. visually, everything seemed like real time. in this game, it isn't, at all. it scales from player to player a bit, but it happens to everyone unless you live next door to the data center and the routes chosen for you doesn't exceed 1 hop.

Some people have adapted to this problem. Some adapted to it a long time ago. But because this is now a natural reaction to the problem for them, they don't see it as a problem at all. That is delusional, illusional, denial thinking at it's finest.

If I told him to go part by part I could have pinpointed it, but I know the most noticable upgrade was my Network Hardware (new mobo) and new GPU. The CPU was actually a "downgrade" if you believe the whole Intel > AMD.

What you are describing has simply zero to do with what people are complaining about. If upgrading your PC "fixed" it for you, this simply means you were running it on too high settings considering your old hardware and you had low FPS/lag which made you get hit by AoEs. Not what people are talking about in ths thread, so troll somewhere else. If you had your fiance build your new computer, this also clearly shows that you lack the knowledge in that field, which makes your PoV invalid, cause you can't contribute any useful insight and you're just posting for the sake of posting.
