Players with severe lag: where are you from?

[Rufalus]

I am a European player on the Ragnarok world. I am wondering if the current lag issues are isolated to EU players, or if this is effecting all players.

Effected players know that the game is in dire need of emergency maintenance. Since yesterday it has also gotten worse and can take many seconds between each update, causing player locations to jump around the map.

UPDATE: Thanks for all the feedback so far everyone. We can definitely see that everyone on the North American and European data centre are being effected by this, and thankfully Square-Enix have now acknowledged the issue on the lodestone, although they say certain instances are effected when it's potentially all instances and even the open world to some degree such as when trying to interact with an npc like a mender.

I'm in the USA (Texas), and play with a buddy from Canada, and we're both having extreme lag / skill interruptions. People warping all over the place, but the real annoyance are the constant "INTERRUPTED" on skills accompanied by "Cannot execute at this time" messages.

Took all of these screenshots today as evidence:

This needs to be fixed - ASAP. Lots of people I grouped with today were complaining about this issue, mostly casters with long spell cast times (like myself), but it probably effects everyone to a degree. I had some people in my FC just give up doing dungeons today because the lag/skill interruptions are so bad.

I watched Transpose take 6+ seconds to switch from Astral Fire to Umbral Ice (several times) after casting, while sitting there being completely useless with little to no mana. I've had the same skill get interrupted SIX times in a row.

Unacceptable.

FYI, me and my friend are on the Leviathan server.

I also found this thread on GameFAQs mentioning the same issue: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/67805...eborn/68898091

And on Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/commen..._in_instances/

I am also on levi server. It's gotten to the point that anything dungeon related is just not worth the hassle in doing right now. SE i know you are reading this, so PLEASE fix it.

Goblin server here, Arizona, USA. Same issues. Dungeons are practically unplayable as a healer.

Balmung & its duty finder server just clocked 15 seconds of lagg.

Cactuar server NA, and having extreme lag in instances (both on ps3 and pc).... especially noticeable as a healer

[White-Magic]

I'm also on the Leviathan server, New Zealand.
Ever since the last "Emergency Maintenance", I've had severe lag in all dungeons and duty-related instances.
I am even affected by this lag in town at times when I was crafting.

Agreed with Kelvani, the lag is unbearable to the point where there are periods of 2-3 seconds delay or 10-15 seconds of complete unresponsiveness.

Just ran into this last night. Never had these problems before. Tried to run Garuda for the story 3 times and it was just a mess. There was at least one other person in each instance who needed it to progress as well and we couldn't keep the other players around for more than one attempt with the lag so bad. I've never seen it anywhere near this bad before so I'm sure they''re working on it.

Shiva europe ps3 player here, I noticed the same issue today, in Halatali HM with Expert DR, numerous times I couldn't keep the rotation going due to combos getting interrupted / not proc'ing

Goblin NA player from Michigan. I've had entire mission teams complaining about the lag teleporting. Playing DPS in such a situation is rough, I can't even imagine how difficult tanking and healing must be.
