    Ps3 has fps lag and high ping/lag spike

    i bought the ps3 version because the pc one was out of stock.... bad move

    i expirience high latency ping not my internet as my partner is on pc version and is fine connection on the same internet

    every other character npc and monster runs at around 15 frames per second all the time

    when i update it always sais failed to download patch files but then just continues

    i have got intouch with se to see if they could look at my issue and maybe change my account from ps3 to pc but no all they say is "well noone else is having this issue so we cant just change your account" even though they have proof and lots of people experience similar things.

    just wanted to know if there was anyway around it or a fix =[ feel stupid for not just waiting but still im in the right to get a refund or have my account switched im sure i even have purchase proof but nothing i feel ripped off by se which is sad considering the game its self is amazing. shame i cant say the same about there customer service

    PS3 is horrible anywhere near fate the framerate has got to be about 15-20 FPS in most populated areas. I am moving my wife off PS3 ASAP just so she can play.

    i dont blame you, the thing that annoyed me the most is se new this and they know its happening but they flat out accused me of lying and making things up, i think anyone who purchased the ps3 version should be entitled to change to the pc if they want to its rediculas, i would get the pc version but the price is rediculas now its out of stock =[ couldnt even find a cd key on ebay worth getting ....

    Should've done your research before buying then. There were side by side comparisons prior to launch, and seeing the horrible framerate of the PS3 pushed me to buy the PC version, even though I'm a solid console gamer. I'll reconsider if/when they come out with a PS4 version of the game, but as a general rule, you get what you pay for. That means high-end, up-to-date system and fast internet service and connection, rather than a manufactured 8 year old box.

    Don't get me wrong, IN MY OPINION consoles are the ideal system for single player games (especially RPGs). But even then, when choosing between a game on PS3 or 360, you have to research fps, draw distance, dlc, UI format, etc.

    TL;DR: You have no one to blame but yourself for not doing research beforehand and being too hasty with purchasing. At the very best, you may be able to transfer PS3 data of FFXIV over to a PS4 account later on (speculation). They seem cool enough for that.

    Actually, I play on the PS3 and so does my boyfriend, the game has been working flawlessly until yesterday. Now everyone, including PC users are experiencing said Lag. I think it's just a problem SE needs to fix, not a problem with the PS3

    i can handle a bit of connection lag its the draw distance that bothers me the most just looks ugly expecially when it still happens when there right next to you, a npc which should move at 30 fps is moving at 15 fps i mean seriously yeh i shoulda done my research but would you have expected that =/
