Fall Guys event feedback

Just some examples of the excellent netcode we're working with here. It's like 2.0 Titan all over again.

Keep posting these. Let the devs understand that this type of gameplay doesn't work with the current backend systems.

FFXIV really feels like it is not equipped for this kind of gameplay. What's supposed to be a fun, and goofy game mode is overshadowed by inconsistent snapshots from obstacles, and debuffs. Entering, and leaving a game is also tedious. It's just frustrating.

I cant lie, the fact this is the "norm" is very pathetic

The event is fun but it's a nightmare and very unfun with the natural latency and the server tick

what a mess

Wow winning 1 crown was pretty much the luckiest part because everytime I arrive at the final, I get screwed by something, it is such a mess lol

I just like how I've seen some people defending this, saying how we don't know about snapshotting an' all that.

Doesn't make it any more fun. In this sort of game, if I have already ran past the obstacle, it shouldn't grab my butt from the past.

They could have at the very least given us proper warnings on the obstacles. On round 3 for example, you have no time to react to the bombs coming from the sky. If the circle spawns under you, then have fun, you ain't dodging that.

Man, I'm so glad people are finally seeing just how bad FFXIV's netcode is. Hopefully this provides some incentive to the devs to improve FFXIV's netcode/network architecture. The only way we are going to see results is if we keep calling SE out for things like this.

Literally what stopped me from winning a crown today. Watched someone run by a second after I got hit.

The fact that Square Enix chose to recreate Fall Guys shows how out-of-touch they are with their own game code. How did they manage to think that this would work? Maybe they were too ashamed and would rather ignore the elephant in the room? We can't even have nice things in raids because of this, let alone a game mode like Fall Guys.

But none of this matters because the raids won't change and we won't get any improvements in 7.0. What matters most is that people buy the expac, beat the story, and unsubscribe. And looking at the Japanese forum where no one is discussing this, it's likely that the devs don't even know this exists. All that remains is some gripes on the English forums here and there, we get told to unsub or play other games, and that's it. Profit is profit.

(Don't get me wrong, the idea of a Fall Guys collab is great. Just like the ideas behind most things in FFXIV. But ideas don't play themselves.)

Btw I flippin knew this was gonna happen. This game's netcode is so stupid, and its been such a hindrance for why we cant have better and fun fights. Everything has to be design around a delay including mechanics and I seriously hope they finally realize they need to update their entire code if we want this game to be fun to play.

Being serious here, how many people ACTUALLY enjoy play FFXIV? I mean physically, in terms of combat? Because I dont. I tolerate sure but its shit like this that makes it really hard to have true fun with this game because the netcode and delay is so horribly bad. We just all gotten used to it for so long.

Well I say its time we started making more noise about this, because if the game is going to try to evolve for the next 10 years, it needs to get its network and engine upgraded just as much as the graphics.
