It's not DDoS, it's just bad servers.

It's just like Elon Musk saying his livestream crashed because of DDoS. Hmm ? I think it's just your bad servers.

Time for a 1-day refund now.

I hope this is trolling or sarcasm, hard to tell from text.

I hope the servers are just trolling or being sarcastic too

Totally agree, and by the way we are also getting another maintenance, it's like maintenance every week, so you only get 75% of the time to play but they give no refund.

They never did even back in ff11 years. But they did make up for it by doing some event or giving a free week or something.

Realize that FFXIV's server structure, applications, and tools were those of FFXI for FFXIV 1.0 which were transferred over but modified for FFXIV 2.0 and onwards. XIV doesn't do well with data sharing, specially accessing databases; it's why the armoire has to be heavily modified for us to store things on it patchers later.

square enix makes it worse by placing their servers in californi and through level 3 networks/nodes. Arenet, Guild wars 2's developer, realized this and moved their servers away from level 3/west coast in general and their servers are the smoothest in any mmo that I've seen.

Hmmmmmmmmm...

I'd suggest improving your connection, in fact.

Gotta love getting "server is congested" and getting stuck in a 30 second long queue with only two people ahead of you at the absolute deadest hours of the day.
