Everyone who seems to be petitioning needs to to put what kind of system they are running and etc. I have stated a few times before that running this game on minimum requirements will cause you to have delays. If you are running a higher end PC then by all means you have the right to petition and complain here about that delay. However, after telling many players that the minimum requirements for running this game causes this delay, many other players have updated their PC since and no longer see this issue.
I think the issue w/ the delay is related to the networking code SE is using (like we've been saying this whole time). Our PC performance isn't going to enhance the rate at which SE refreshes our position in the game. Since I'm running the recommended graphic card and probably above average specs, I'll post my PC specs and say I've always shown the positional delay on myself and everyone around me in the game.

I live about 1 hr or so away from the Montreal servers and have cable internet. I can see the delay whether the pc is in 4.2ghz OC mode or standard, same thing for the card if in OC mode or not.
The games needs fixing.
I posted this in another thread but I feel it is relevant in this one too.
I have found in many mmo when trying to discuss such issues it becomes a lost cause, it invariably always turns into a fight or pissing contest between 3 main groups.
You have group:
A - They often are not very skillful and like to blame lag and other issues on their lack of knowledge or mechanics of the game etc.
B - They are skillful, know the mechanics of the game and are able to objectively look at the game and see the issues, are often the ones starting threads wanting to get things fixed or at least get some answers.
C - You then have this last group who will deny there can be anything wrong on the game companies side and it is all your ISP, your pc, your lack of skill etc and they are unwilling to look at facts or attempt to use any common sense and refuse to admit maybe something should be done. This group also has a subset that admits even though they never ever see such problems maybe some others might but they should be able to get around the issues etc etc
Of all the groups I find group C the most annoying and frankly don't have any more credibility than group A. Group A wont admit when they mess up even if it's really obvious and as such lose credibility, group C loses credibility because they refuse to look at facts and want to lump everyone into group A and thereby make themselves look good or skillful or elite or w/e.
Group B tries to maintain some kind objectivity but more often than not the trolling and flaming from groups A and C end up making them lose it or just plain look like they are beating a dead horse.
I have never understood why group A and group C cannot go play in some other thread with each other and leave group B alone, if group B gets what they want it will not harm group A or C and would on the most part improve the game both in subs and game-play.

Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

- But still players do this 'stop go, stop go' motion like their positions are being refreshed every other second and they rush to their new position. Also they are running in place a lot. 93ms ping isn't going to cause that.
Bump.
The problem is : when you try to avoid an aoe, you never NEVER know if you made it or not. This is unbearable, how are we suppose to enjoy pve with that handicap ? I insist, this is just not fun and stressful.
I've unsubbed for now, because there is still no PvP, casual raids and because the lag in this game is unacceptably high. I can play WoW, SWTOR or Rift without borderline game-breaking lag, but not this game.
Unless they address this issue I won't have confidence in the game, long-term. It's far too wide-spread. And it wouldn't be new, all new MMOs suffer from lag, animation delays and/or graphics engine problems. But this is pretty bad and Square is more opaque than a black hole.
Good news everyone! I found a solution - I stopped playing. Feels much better now.
