Hello,
I am having a ton of fun in this new patch, however when I go after an S Rank hunt or Behemoth/Odin I get extreme spikes of lag that make me have to sit on the sidelines.
There was alot of large scale content in Aion such as Fortress Sieges where sometimes more than 800-1000+ players attacking each other and the fortress boss.
To get rid of extreme lag there was a command option (shift+f12) which would hide Other PCs not in your party/alliance(except names). This cleared up the lag dramatically in large scale battles.
Mabe a feature like this could be added in the future to FFXIV?
