Latency Issues still not fixed??

[Ruri]

Considering it's happening to multiple players, it's more than "packet loss". And yes, I blame Time Warner. May they burn in a fiery place for all eternity.

They just got baught out by another POS company (Comcast) too so not getting any better.

I have Comcast and still getting 90K errors all day long, with random lag that doesn't drop me from the game too. Always on the days where I want to get something done...

[Mogi]

Comcast!!!!!!!! eww them and there lies about very fast net :P but at this point i do think it's the game i mean iv seen everyone lag here and there since yesterday :P maybe after they take the game down tonight they can fix it {i hope}

[Itseotle]

hmm I have Cox Cable and have only had in-game lag once and that was on there end and they fixed it. I play on Diabolos in case anyone was wondering. I only have basic cable package of 5MBs (but I realistically get 5.4MBs) down and 1.1MBs up, so not super fast speeds at all.

Play on Balmung, using Cox cable, 90k once today (rare), and minor lag here and there, but no problem in Duty at all.

He's talking about how yesterday (and today) people were getting super lag and getting kicked due to R0. I haven't timed out of the game in months - maybe since last year and yesterday I got kicked multiple times along with almost everyone in my FC.

Hence the maintenance.

the only time I 90k normally is t6 ever since 2.8, yesterday I barely finished my roulette and was terrified to do my alex maps. Every time I entered an instanced server I would dc within 15min and I would run into a que when I came back. I assumed it was/is the duty servers being messed up since cactuar wasn't all that busy yesterday.

I always lag after a new patch, and then 2 weeks later it's gone. Is that really my ISPs fault? I mean how would the ISP know that they added a new patch and then "alright new patch, let's make it hell for Kiara, but only for 2 weeks so that she wont suspect us!"

Edit: Now I got 90k doing one fate, logged in again and the fate was gone, ran to the next fate, fate almost done and got another 90k.
I'm gonna write an angry letter to them every day til I get the playtime I lost back due to lag :@@

Getting major lag spikes recently, using software to help isn't really an option on PS4.

At least on the forums the reports of bad 'lag' seemed to have subsided. While I get a fairy good 100ms from the UK (Virgin Media, cable) there used to be occasions where I'd get hit when I was 100% certain I was out of it in time. It still happens but very rarely. There's even times when I was sure I was in it but wasn't!

The internet wasn't made for twitch responses so MMOs have to have some mechanisms to deal with that and it seems that FF14 2.x doesn't. A VPN tunnel shouldn't be required to play an MMO. If players have to do this it's SE that loose out when players decide it's not worth it. They can increase the polling rate sure but they need to make client side code that compensates for higher latencies like other games do. Hopefully 3.x will have such work done to it.
