I can't even play the game anymore. Seriously. Here are just SOME of the things I've experienced.
- Not being able to dismount my Chocobo
- Not being able to Teleport, sprint, ect...
- Waiting a thousand years (well... about 2 minutes) to talk to an NPC.
- Having to select my target multiple times. Example: Had to "Examine Mangled corpse". Examined it 6 times. The phrase "The enemy is still around" popped up each time. Only on the 7th time did the enemy actually show up.
- Got 90K'd a total of 5 times today. (Internet connection is fine by the way)
- Walking through transition lines and not transitioning.
ECT...
Some of you may ask, well what did you try? Port Forwarding? DMZ's? Well I major in Networks in college, so of course. To no avail. I have exhausted all aspect of my end and I am thoroughly convinced its on SE's end. My guess would be it's due to high traffic, but It's been like this the day leading up to and following maintenance on the 11th.
On an ending note, I love the game SE. I really do. I play every FF game that comes out, because I do so enjoy them. It's gotten to a point now where I compare every RPG to FF, and they usually pale in comparison. (Other then Zelda, which is by far the best game ever) But me loving the game. Me liking the story. Me enjoying the world and the playability all means absolutely nothing if I can't do anything. You've taken the joy out of this game, and if it continues I will not be paying for this service. You must know about this issue. I have seen many topics in this sectio non "lag", even though most of them do not detail anything enough for you to actually do anything...
Please, SE, all I am asking for is a reply, an announcement, SOMETHING to let me and everyone else know where this falls on your priority list. I am sure there are many things you have to fix. In fact, I've seen many things you need to fix. But this is a game killer. To me, this should be at the top of your list of things to do. I just feel like you guys don't even know this issue exists and that is more bothersome than anything.
Thank you for your time.
