Not again this shit of regional servers.
We all know FF is for international servers, for both jap and west people. They'll not come. dot.
And foremost, i love play with people of all world. JP onry people is just lazy

By the way, to those that say that there are "two seconds" of lag between input and skill execution, try checking your stamina. If you can't administer your stamina, it's not the server's fault

Maybe if the server did not have to agree on everything we do on the game we wont have such problem with lag. I have no lag when it come to menu anymore just a few here and there.

I would not mind JP,EU,ENG servers or everyone together there both fine by me but SE would stay with everyone together and i agree that is the best idea.

UI is still laggier than other games even though there is a marked improvement since release, and combat is still unresponsive. If it's not due to regional servers then SE needs to show that they can improve it without regional servers.

It's due to serverside interface which it makes no difference where the servers are as it's all up to the game in general to be properly optimized especially if I need:

Click action > wait for server to 'OK' > send action > get response.

It's all because of the middle steps that's causing it to be laggy, since most MMOs you send action > get response on if it lands/deals damage/cures etc etc, no middle augment.

I think it's cool to have people to play with around the clock. People in other countries are pretty cool ya know.

Heya!

This (and XI) is one of the few games that allows people all over the world to stick and have fun together, building relationship all over the world, and you want to destroy it because of the latency?
I don't know you guys, but I don't experience any lag issue, neither I did for the little time I played XI. It's only a thing that needs a little more tweak.
If the player's issue is the misunderstanding of languages, they can use the Auto-translation feature to ease the understanding.

Please, don't drop cool things!

See ya!

I like how it is now. But there are some risks too it. If people from Germany or Japan for example all go to the same server because there friends play there too and they speak their own language all the time, it is really annoying to see them talk in their own language and thereby dividing the gamer population in groups.
As long as some people actually try to speak the most spoken language in the game and connect to other people from other countries I dont mind.
But I've been in games where people only spoke German although it was an international game. I can understand German quite well but seeing this people isolate themselves from the rest of the community is really annoying.
Luckily I have seen only 99,99% of the time English in some occasions some Japanese, but maybe that's because Karnak is still quite small.

I see no issue whatsever with multi-region servers. It works for Xbox live and PSN. Nobody complains about latency issues from those.
