They addressed lobby congestion issue! The implementation of AoE is the same. Yoshida tells how difficult it is to deal with multiple ISP providers - nice try!
ffxivboot.exe establishes connection to Akamai Technology CDN - one of the best.
Then ffxiv.exe connects to the data server of your choice: in New England it is Montreal that is on level3 CND. My ping is 39-45ms.
3x45ms = 135ms: dodging is a 3 step process: plum shows, I react, server responds.
My speed numbers: 50Mbs/37Mbs. I get hit every time in Titan unless I am on the edge of the plum and escape in a split of a second!
I can only imagine how gamers whose single ping is 250ms feel!
To those who complained the game is too easy: Congratulations! you've got everything "hard" mode :-) Enjoy!
