Any plans to address severe server issues?

I dont believe people understand whats being said here.


While doing savage and extreme primals for the last month or so I am unable to stay connected to the game, or play without severe packet loss.


In extreme primals and savage. This is where my issues are most noticeable. I also experience issues with packet loss during crafting or gathering.

So yes the game is unplayable. I cannot play a game that relies on crafting procs, or you lose materials when you craft, or required high damage output, and reflex reaction times when i'm getting packet loss (loss of procs, while crafting, inability to perform combos due to packet loss etc etc) or flat out getting disconnected etc.


This has been ongoing for 1-2 months, and getting worse as i said with each day. I have been calling comcast over and over for 1.5 years, and now i'm starting to seriously consider that its XIV. I ping wikihow.com and never have packet loss but when i ping XIV, its always severe.


Last nights issue was just icing on the full triple layered cake. So again, yes the game is becoming unplayable for me.

If youre not aware, a game is something youre supposed to enjoy, and if over 50% of the time I cannot participate in the content or activities I want to participate in due to connection issues then yes its not fun anymore. No point in playing if its not fun. I'm glad the other two people are not experiencing any issues, and maybe the problem can be resolved, hence why i'm here expressing my concern.

Also note, I pretty much never have any issues with Final Fantasy XI. So no its not me and yes it is just this game.

Last nights issue was largely with Comcast routing to FFXIV servers....

So I'm seeing an issue already.

I would contact your provider again. Possibly check your DNS where its being routed through.

Considering I am on Spectrum and the biggest issue I've had was last night since I route to Comcast on my way to FFXIV servers.....The issue is not server based.
