    No. Not sure if you actually went from ps3 to ps4, but no.

    What most PS3 users complain about isn't actually lag from the servers or their ISPs or network adapters or routers - it was graphical lag and processing power.

    I was totally in the camp that I was just as good as anyone else was on my PS3 - I rarely got hit by a plume and almost never by a landslide in X mode on my PS3, tanked T4 and T5, etc. I can say with absolute certainty that my gameplay has improved since upgrading to PS4 - like, by a lot. I can see clearly, I don't get hit by things that it looked like I was out of - I am more often clearing the rims of plumes and the rails of Spinning Dives by a wide margin as opposed to razor thin pixels. It is honestly ALL due to the enhanced performance of PS4.

    My hot buttons don't lag, I don't have to press my macros 1,000 times for them to work, my combo'ing is smooth, I don't have camera whip lag - its honestly like a totally different game, or like I had been playing with one arm tied behind my back before. While I was finding a high level of personal success at this game on PS3, it really is a handicap.

    I'm not super tech savvy to the point where I would be able to ghetto-rig a PS3 to make it play nicely, or tunnel my ISP, or do whatever else - but I can say that in my experience, game play is definitely enhanced on the PS4 versus PS3, not just the graphics.

    For everyone curious I bought a PS4..and I saw someone say I need to ditch ps3 because it lacks graphics? I love my ps3 and playing all my games on it..I could care less about graphics I just wanted a smoother play..because even on ps3 I dodge EXTREMELY WELL but I need that little fps boost ps4 will give me.

    Wait for the price to go down. Most fights are as the 'pros' call them "Straightforward mindlessly easy", so if you already know what's coming, you can just anticipate it and move ahead of time.

    Although that's just the cheap side of me speaking.

    Very simply PS3 had load times, NPC's took long to show up now all of that is done. Everything is now quick, draw distance is much more now and not too mention how beautiful the game looks in full hd
    The controller feels so much better, and woo i can actually see other players in Mor Dhona now, lol

    The PS4 has full mouse and keyboard support.

    PS4 is godly compared to PS3. It's well worth the upgrade. You can see so much more and the framerate is so much smoother.

    PS4's recording function is really good when you are going to do a new encounter. You simply record it and rewatch it to find out mistakes you made. On the same time, you can also see how other people doing in the same encounter. I recommand PS4 over PC right now, especially when yolu dont have a super PC.

    Yes but not exactly. The default setting is for the right button is confirm and the left button for cancel and that's ok for left handed people. Unfortunately most of the worlds population is indeed right handed so it feels unnatural to a right handed person. To make things worse THERE IS NO WAY TO CHANGE IT! Not even in the Keybind menu can I change it. It won't accept mouse clicks as a bindable key.

    I sent in a ticket and what do I get back? A message about seeking help elsewhere for my in-game content issue. I'm really frustrated.
