Bad lag again with NTT's NA server network

[Ursiel]

I'm really about to just quit entirely. It's not worth paying a monthly fee to play a laggy game. It really sucks, because I was looking forward to this tier a lot, but I just can't play like this and I'm not dropping money on a VPN to play one damn game.

I share the same sentiment a lot of you have been expressing, if this isn't fixed there's no way I can justify spending money to play this game anymore. Being on console I can't use a VPN even if I was willing, but I shouldn't have to regardless.

I had just renewed my sub when this whole fiasco started, so I'll attempt to wait it out. Hopefully we at least get some sort of real communication soon.

I will once again repeat, if you're on PC (sorry console people), you can spend $3 on Mudfish and use that VPN service, it's not a sub, it's pay-per-usage. It has been working well for me. It will last you more than any sub can offer.

I entirely understand dropping subscriptions and quitting whilst something happens, but if XIV is your "main" game as it is for many others, it's worth a try honestly. Don't let NTT stop you from playing the game, in my opinion.

FF14 is my main game, but I'm willing to give it up if it's not providing a good experience on its own. I shouldn't need to look to a third party paid program to play a game I enjoy, especially when SE doesn't really seem to care either.

I check this thread every day and just get sadder and sadder. All my excitement for the new patch has completely evaporated because of this issue. This is ridiculous.

Same old story on my end. Still broke, says the Hrothgar.
Probably won't play tonight as I'll be busy getting lost trying to play YuGiOh: the Gathering with the new Guilty Gear Strive character, but I'll likely pop on at some point just to test and make sure that Warp is still working for me.

[CODE] I really do hope it's not some sort of dumb money spat between the two, that would just make me so sad to suffer because of greed.

Welcome to late-stage Capitalism.

PvP remains unplayable without a VPN. I would prefer to not use a VPN but am for the time being. Without it, the rubberbanding and lag is so bad I am useless in pvp. Especially with the new ranked CC season starting.

I submitted a ticket to both ATT and NTT today. The technician at ATT said that it has been escalated and gave me a contact to provide details to the "backend team", and the response received from NTT was:
"I have associated this to our master ticket. I cannot disclose the full details but know that this incident is escalated to the highest level within NTT. I would advise continuing to create tickets with your upstream provider, ATT, to bring attention and awareness to the impact this is having on you and other ATT customers."

I'm not sure if someone has already posted this information, but I found NTT contact info.

There is a number for technical support. I'll be calling when I get a little more free time. I'm unsure if they'll even talk to us considering we're not technically customers, but trying is better than nothing.
