HUGE CONNECTION PROBLEM

Location: NSW Australia
Server: Tonberry
Mood: Cranky

You're not alone. VIC here, Tonberry, me and 1/3 of FC members are lagging too.

Yes, this has been very noticeable for about 2 weeks now for me.

Been happening the last two weeks for me as well. This is the only game that is doing this stuttering too.

I just wanted to say I play the game on PS4 and for about a month it's been just fine, but for the last couple of days (June 21, 22) - it seems after maintenance as I saw mentioned in this thread, I have a lag on actions taken by my character, the chat continuing to work fine. After 10-20 seconds I catch up at high speed. 3 Times tonight I had a DC and couldn't get back on for a few minutes when trying to do an action. Sometimes if I back out I see an 'Action Cancelled' message as well. Hope this is being looked at.

This is pretty much me, i had the 2002 / 90k glitch every time and it cleared up for a bout 2-3 weeks. Now this morning i literally can not even access the word without 2002. i can't even log in to get the 90k it goes straight to 2002 and back to log in screen every time.

PSN has been having a lot of brain farts since PS4 release. Was an announcement about it in the Lodestone just the other day. It's possible there could be some data corruption linked to some of the accounts I guess, depending on just what was going on with the crash. I know a friend just had to go trough account recovery process because things got knackered up moving from PS3 to PS4.

Sounds like that may be more of the same thing we expaerienced back around launch... forced disconnects and character flags are out of whack, preventing you from logging back in again. May need to take this up directly with SE through the support portal so they can investigate and make any corrections if needed.

I just spent over an hour in queues, due to DCs resetting my position in queue. I finally managed to get a single dungeon, and to my immense joy, it was Ifrit. At least I didn't DC from that. This is getting rather silly. I have done absolutely everything I can to ensure it wasn't my end, including using different ISPs, by playing at a friend's house, and physically replacing my wireless card. I like this game, when I can play it. It truly lives up to the stories my friends told me to get me into it. But this constant disconnecting is complete nonsense.

I find myself playing less and less, due to connection issues I've been having since 2.2 went live (we're talking beginning of April!). I might probably drop my sub when it expires, no point in paying for something I am actually not getting. I've posted many times about my issues and received no support whatsoever. I was considering upgrading to PS4, but from what I've read, it doesn't seem worth it! I really love this game, but if the only times I am able to play are well past midnight, I just won't be able to keep playing. So here's to hoping something will be fixed.

Add another to the list here, my wife was okay during the day, but in the evening tonight and the past few nights she gets virtually crippling lag in instances. She'll see a lot of little skips the whole time, then occasional longer ones like 2-5 seconds, and sometimes 10-15s where she thinks she's going to D/C, then everything snaps back. Rarely she 90k's out.

Tried resetting router, restarting system, making sure it's only her online...nada >.<

And the hits just keep on coming. Figured I'd do some crafting while in queue. Queue pops. Hurray! Just gotta finish this item first... And *poof!* There goes the connection. So, not only did I lose the queue, which I'm salty about... You also took away my mats. So thank you so much for that. Really.

Same problem here. I bought the game last week during the Steam summer sale and I've not been able to play for more than a couple of minutes without getting disconnected from the server. I contacted support on Friday and they advised me to change the UPnP settings in the FFXIV.cfg file, which I did. I let them know on Saturday that this did nothing to change the problem and I've yet to hear from them.
I'm very frustrated about this, everything else works just fine (other on-line games, Netflix), it's only this game I just can't play. I'm hoping for an official statement soon so we at least know what's being done and how long it might take to fix it.
