    Post update lag

    Thanks, Square for even worse character lag post patch that was supposed to fix positioning by speeding it up.. now instead of making it post heart on Titan 90% of the time my char gets hit after being out of the indicators by a mile. Way to kill progression still despite echo for folks who have been busting their butts trying to progress for the past 3 months yet... considering unsubbing because if I can't beat Titan EX, all I got right now left is Twin and Coil 6-9.. I won't even get into Atma because that's friggin rediculous as it is. Spent 6 hours between queues today farming one zone to get NOTHING. Yeah. This doesn't feel like progression. Echos were supposed to assist some of these things, but it can't assist when you lag out and get knocked off a stupid platform.

    Previously it was bad now it's 100% unplayable. Anything after stone vigil is completely out of the question to even attempt.

    Why are you prioritizing open world when you literally have nothing challenging in it?! I never have bad lag outdoors but in a dungeon it's just beyond terrible and broken. And by broken yes I do mean it literally. The game is completely unplayable in boss fights no matter what your skill level is.

    Even lvl 40+ one shots are 100% lethal because even if you avoid the aoes you will still die to the hit every single time.

    I've noticed the lag TENDS to affect 4-man instances much more then 8-mans, but it is pretty unbearably annoying to consistently have to deal with combos not registering. I wouldn't say it's absolutely unplayable, but it is very, very obnoxious.

    Hoping it's succinctly taken care of soon.

    I think they're trying to find a way without putting auto logout back on.

    I did Titan HM about 20 times the day after the patch trying to get my relic, wiping each time. At first I thought it was me and the PUG's just not reacting enough. I logged in the next morning and did not get touched except by tumult. I was relieved I finally finished but at the same time i thought, "did I really have to do this that many times?".

    I'm sure they will get to the bottom of it soon. Just please do not bring the the game down for maintenance wed or thu, those are my days off ;p

    I would think a compromise of auto log out after 1-3 hours would be best. A half hour was short. But no auto log out and risk congestion with peeps just up and left their char and never came back. I'd prefer 1 hour but idk if that is enough time for others. I wouldn't keep an unmoving char in the game for longer than 3 hrs max.

    They said it themselves that they aren't willing to put money into improving the servers.

    I for one am willing to forfeit any future patches it costs to get the servers working. It's not unplayable when you miss a combo but when it consistently causes everyone to die to attacks no-one saw then it's broken. not a little rough around the edges but broken as in not working at all.

    Well to be fair, did you ever think of WHY they aren't? Putting some money in to beef up the servers, isn't a one time thing. It costs more over time as well. This coupled with the concept that the current load is NOT normal.
