Air Force One and Chocobo Racing

[NessaWyvern]

Chocobo racing is not that bad, I'd say its more like 3 seconds for a lane change, and depending on your chocobo build, you can have it so you don't need to change lanes at all to win.

I think they have the lane change system the way they do, so that you can accurately see and put debuffs on players despite having different levels of ping. (Since I think chocobo positions are server side? Me no tech savvy)
The "delay" is part of that.
It wouldn't be nice if it looked like you won, but someone behind you was actually in front of you, you just couldn't see it because of ping, and then you lose.
