Ever increasing lag

[mouseno4]

Holy crap... i just changed the ''Large Send Offload v2 (IPv4) and (IPv6)'' settings and my connection turned to absolute CRAP! Now i am getting HORRIBLE lag spikes to which ive never seen before. Seriously, everyone on screen FREEZES for up to 5 seconds and then suddenly they all become SUPERMAN zooming across the screen like crazy.

If anyone has any information on this, even if of no use, it would be appreciated nonetheless.

Are you actually outside the red zone when it disappears and NOT when the ability lands? Ive noticed that in XIV if your inside the red zone before it disappears, regardless of whether you move out before the ability is cast (titans landslide is a good example) you will be hit.

Also, where are you checking your latency?

Are you actually reading this forum? Many posts about lag issues.

I've done some research into the issue and was able to compile some information here: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...87#post1302987

I also have quite a bit of historical trace routes and ping checks showing latency on the host end of the network. The goal is to raise awareness about the issue. If enough feedback comes back on the fiber and server companies, they will optimize and upgrade their connections or Square will give us the ability to re route around them completely.

With IT businesses, it's common practice to not address an issue until the building is on fire. Until that happens, I don't expect a whole lot of movement.

Aint that the truth. And dont i know it after years of this occurring everywhere.

The lag and rubberbanding during peak hours is very annoying. It actually makes it less fun to play sadly.

unfortunately, you have a few strikes against you, coming from AU. It's about +200 just getting across the pond to the NA shores, then when you finally get into Canada, things get even more screwy in route again.

Find the IP of your server with resmon, run a trace when you are lagging really bad so you have a good example, and forward that to your ISP if you can, as well as SE. Hopefully if we can get enough people attacking at least this part of the problem from both endpoints we can get some improvement on that front.

im in sydney using tpg... i have the exact same problem w chocobo, and fighting titan is a matter of sheer luck because avoiding landslide is as luck dependant as finding a sober man on a friday night....

i have lagg issues, i have found some of delay/lagg issues are caused by the client graphics.
VERY VERY HARD to explain but its not hardware graphics lagg its the clients software causing it & its to do with the resolution & also found if you turn off the decrease in frame rate option, it also helps suprisingly well in other areas of the game.
As for high vs medium graphics no difference.
as for monitor stock LED (has monitor lagg), ADV setting (no monitor lagg), ADV 1 setting, (no lagg).
Using Battleping also decreased the internet lagg & ping, Although going from 360ms to 160ms is good BUT IF YOU COMPARE TO TERA (MMO) which has 400ms-600ms (closer to 600ms ping Average) the lagg is a second in game YES Literally a second. GW2 (MMO) is also around the 400 ping mark & bearly noticeable Lagg.
Final Fantasy XIV ARR on the other hand: 360ms/160ms doesnt matter the lagg is anywhere from 3 to 7 seconds & anything 5 seconds or over cancels the moves you input.

I Hope they fix all the Lag Issue & comment on it soon, Because Titan is unbeatable almost solely due to it!
