The circle test: revisted
So, FFXIV:ARR Beta Phase 3 rolled out last night. Finally, the phase with local(NA) data servers! No more connecting to Japan, no more excuses for the intolerable lag that plagued the original game. For reference sake, here's the test video from 1.0:
Ouch, I know. Pretty embarrassing. Surely, the NA servers will fair much better. I wasn't about to run across my apartment (different setup) to quickly pan like last time, so you'll have to make due with a simple transition slide. On to the test!
As you can clearly see, the localized servers made all the difference. It was clearly hardware limitations this whole time! SE knows how to make a functional online game, long live Yoshida! What's that you say? It looks exactly the same? Nonsense, this fixed everything and I won't hear another word about it.
Not another word. (lol)
