how much lag are u guys getting? I'm thinking of buyint the pc as oppose to the 360 because i don't have to get a keyboard but how much lag are u getting.
Note: I'm running with 768ram and 22mbps connection
radion x600 or sumthing, 512 ram, 3.0 proccesor and I have like no lag besides the random lag spike but never really any that hindered my gamply. Unlike eq2 or wow holy $#@%. They do a nice job with there servers.
A lot of it rides in your video card, But no matter how fast you are, there are some places that will lag you (Like Beseieged) I've never had a chance to look at the 360 Config, But I can tell you the Ps2 one is bare minimum compaired to everything you can change around on the PC ^.^ My pc is a few years old, And Mostly I only lag In Lower Jeuno (Pretty much the Major Trading city, 4 Parts to Jeuno, each with an Auction house, but Lower Jeuno is where everyone goes to sell somthing (Lots of shouts <.<) And they horde around the Auction house So It can become Laggy... But hey there are 3 other Ones in the City) And if you're somwhere were theres a lot of animation going on, Or multipul parites close togeather with High ammounts of Animation (Unless we've got some ffxi vets on PC, the 360 noobs wouldn't quite be at these area's yet) But on PC you can turn off Any effect thats outsdie your party (even a few inside that my lag ya) And lower the animation rate where you'll play smooth.
