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

Unfortunately this is a game breaking issue for elite content further down the line, and any significantly difficult content to come (and for some even present).

Their client-server part needs to improve drastically, but so far they've shown no signs that they're "working on finding a solution".

The reason community reps are replying on threads with 2-3 pages is because this is a no-no topic for them.

I saw it all through the beta. If it's a huge gamebreaking issue, they're not allowed to comment.

It's not the Community Reps, it's the higher-ups who are taking their sweet time to answer.

Which would be Yoshida.

Unfortunately, seeing the Community Reps comment on silly topics while big ones like this are left unanswered is really the worst kind of customer service any company can provide.

It's akin to going to the store and asking someone in blue vest where the brown sugar is and them saying "That's not my department".

SE is the KING of "That's not my department".

Sadly until the "higher-ups", as you put it, don't start giving a damn about this issue, they'll avoid any comments on threads like this .
I can only hope that they will significantly improve this client-server/w/e "latency".

While this is seen worst in Titan, its not just there as many point out. I cant even count the number of times its happened to me or my boyfriend since phase 3... Did they fix it in beta, no but they did make it slightly less as obnoxious That is not enough though and the lack of real responses about it is disheartening.

My experience of the fight is - know the rotation, you won't get hit. I think the plumes are designed to be difficult to avoid, if you're not already moving to dodge them. I was getting hit constantly, then my partner memorised the rotations. Now when we reach the 2nd+ phases, he calls out the attacks for me. I can move in anticipation - I don't get hit. I still haven't beat the fight, however - it's tough, and there's just no room for error. My smaller static plan on using some sort of voip so someone can call out the attacks and help everyone avoid.

Of course this does seem silly in a game which doesn't inherently have voip, therefore requiring you to either get access to a service, or have your entire party memorise the rotations. My other tactic was to suggest that someone who knows it has macros said up to announce the moves in PT chat, but no-ones took me up on this yet. (I think the tank should have this duty - they don't do much in this fight :P)

The best part is we have been claiming this since 2011 and still "it must be you because its not us"

The question would be, is it worth fixing the servers at this point?
Most fans say the game is fine and they like Final Fantasy no matter what.

Other people seem to demand more quality but ask your self this.
If they would fix this, would the game be much better or just al right?

By reading the forums, it seems that this was also a problem on 1.0.
So, answering your question, if this doesn't get fixed, only the "Legacy 2.0" players will stay in the game!

If the client claims you've warped halfway across the map in that time, then unless you used some warping game mechanic to allow this (which should have been in the information the client sent to the server), the server rejects it and says, no, you're wrong, you're really back where you were before, and sends that information back to the client. (...)

But the problem is that the server isnt even doing any of thoose checks...
the proof of that the bots teleporting from a node to another..(not only this but also harvesting 10x faster then our delay)

so.. wth cant we do our movement check by the client? while at same time the bots can?
It seems that whats forcing this checks is the client and not the server..

I was about to say the same thing! lol

and what's up with the likes for this post? In beta there was around 2000 likes. I haven't seen a lot of the names from then so maybe that's why.

I've been helping lots of people in the DF get through Ifrit SM and Titan SM and most people complain that they are out of the AoE's when they get hit. I guess not many people come to the forums?? Who knows.

I wont be subbing another 30 days if SE doesn't comment on fixing it. Which is a shame because i really do like the game... its just not playable.
