yes some people do over exaggerate the latency issue but i for one have a great PC and a almost always dependable HIGHspeed connection and yet i would suffer alot from latency problems in Ifrit fight. The whole deal is the entire games coding/server structure is/was ass. I died a many times to eruptions and plumes when i was miles away from them and responded to them immeadiately. Always just set chat to show monster actions and really payed attention yet i would often die to latency problems. But anyways anytime u have a monster tossing out timed actions at you; and there is latency problems and the servers the info is being sent to is half way across the world your at a huge disadvantage. This MMO brings it even a step further because of how taxing it is on your PC. Alot of people try to play this game w/ underperforming 5+yr old PCs that just cant keep up or have the power to play the game in general. We'll see during beta testing how well thsi new can play on almost anything graphics engine works for us i find it hard to swallow that a lousy i5 cheap laptop alone can play ff14 so well but who knows ?I wont be surprised when people start testing and complaining that they are gettin poor fps and stuttering on there cheapo laptops lol.
