Sorry SE, but endgame won't work if you don't fix something.

[DeceptionsWrath]

All we want is an answer:

- Yes it's going to be fixed on [insert date]
- No it's never going to be fixed

At least with a response we'll be able to decide if we move on to another game or we wait until a certain date.
No feedback from SE is kinda rude...

I think that is exactly why they're not commenting on this subject. They don't want to say no it won't be fixed. If they acknowledge the problem then they'll need to spend money fixing it. If they simply ignore it, people will give up eventually. Bethesda is known for this approach for their games as well.

Either way people will leave the game if it's not fixed (I am).
The difference is:
1) SE answers: I will leave but with still a high esteem of the company and maybe even come back later.
2) SE ignores it: I will leave, never come back, and never play another SE game due to poor CS. CS is what makes the difference.

We'll see when PvP comes in the picture...

I don't know how they could possibly think about PvP with this kind of issue.

it was an acknowledged issue in 1.0, they even said oh thats a big reason we have to rewrite the servers
so they promised a fix and didnt do it
now there is only silence from SE and Yoshida/SE looks like liars
Tanaka wasnt the problem, it was all the people under him and they are still there
Yoshida is just lipstick on a pig

You'd think after 1,074 replies they'd at least say something..

The whole being able to start a Cure cast while I'm auto running, only to show as interrupted a second later, instead of telling me I can't cast while moving is another thing I assume is related to this whole thing. Maybe, dunno.
Came from WoW where it was so smooth, my whole Nature's Swiftness>Healing Touch macro was a 1 click macro. Swiftcast>Cure II feels so pointless as an "Oh crap!" heal when it's not instant.

Subscription ran out today and the fact that SE aren't even commenting here really puts me off renewing, at least knowing they acknowledge it and are working on it would give as some reassurance, assuming other people are in the same boat as I am as to whether to renew or not.

Edit: Great game by the way apart from this.

Bumping for good measure.

Coils can be especially difficult some times with the delay. Interupt, passing rot, etc. just becomes super frustrating when most mechanic end game have no room for messing up.

And even with perfect internet connection, other players always look like this while moving;

Obviously there is some thing wrong.

Daily bump. You have to be in a lot of denial to recognize from a screenshot that someone is clearly out before the end of the cast bar (doesn't matter how close to the end, they are still out before the end), see they still get hit.. and STILL insist there's not a problem.

Kind of like the first video I posted. A lot of people will dismiss it because I hesitated and therefore the skill could have been dodged. But if you bother to watch it, and pause it, I'm still out before the cast finishes. The video wasn't meant to show how I shouldn't get hit even if I hesitate. It's to show you get hit even when out before the cast bar finishes if you get out at the tail end.

That does happen, and that's what needs to be fixed. Yes you can work around it but you shouldn't have to. That's the point of this thread.

Eh not gonna argue my opinion anymore cause obviously I'm the only person in all of Eorzea that thinks this way but I'll leave on this: Squares usually seems to be pretty quick on owning up to their mistakes in this game so if there was a serious or game breaking latency issue they would have likely admitted it by now with a dev response or something so if they haven't than there liekly isn't a game breaking problem. My opninion take it or leave it prbably the latter but i'll leave it anyway

How about it being in the accepted bugs list? Cause it's been there but people still keep arguing...
