just got done trying this game as its been a while since i last played it (was laggy then too, maybe a year or so ago). they may have updated the UI but its practically unplayable due to the lag.
hate to ask this about a flash game (since you shouldn't ever need to) but could someone please tell me the system requirements for http://armorgames.com/darkorbit-game/15574 ? this game gives me more lag than any of the other MMOs here.
To fix the lag in Darkorbit: 1. You go to 'Settings' on your in-game page. .It is located in the top-right corner. 2. Then click 'Show hit counter' until it's off.
theres no hit counter in the settings anywhere but its no lagging now. maybe it was just my internet as it seemed pretty jerky when moving around yesterday.
