Yes there is lag... for me it gets unplayable the moment all the fighters and missiles(planet defenses etc..) butt in the scene... so i suggest to avoid planetary battle, atleast until new release comes... might be fixed in it. MV is a real laghouse currently..

Nope... everything else in the screen moves, FPS stays well over 70, but it starts going zigzag, then screen freezes, then some more zigzag.. and weapons dont seem to respond even if you smash the spacebar off your board :|

Release still lags pretty bad, beta on the other hand rarely lags at all, even with 3 agincourt carriers attacking you, and when it does lag it's a few seconds at most...soon lag will be destroyed (I hope)

Zeritu, shadey and lots of others are in the EU and often the ping is like 10 seconds over 17 hops thru us and uk.overhead.nets. lag for us means entering the n00b server last and mv being so far lagged u die constantly in any bombing/battle situation as you lose all control.
come to my house and try it!

But when it is not my equipment.. I'm on high quality T1 connection, 2,08GHz AMD Athlon XP as processor, 512Mb DDR, ATI Radeon 9200 with Omega Catalyst 5.6 drivers...
sure are old parts, but then, how come i _never_ lag in *any* other games than DS.. i play L2, EVE, etc, which have even higher ingame quality, but i -never ever- lag in any of those games.. im thinking somethings messed in the connection between me and the server, probably a router or something..
and im running DS on pretty low detail.. if you dont lag, it doesnt mean others wouldnt..
and im not the only one lagging nowadays...

for sure you are lagging in eve.
as i am lagging there also. But EVE is better in hiding the lag.
and i am one who nearly had no probs with lag in DS..except i was the bomber within a cloud of bombs

were you in any battles with command carriers/cd's/ad's launching fighter/missiles and rocks at you? if so then maybe i might check out my connection.
As for me, the lag issue comes when in heavy battles.. and we even had them near a jumpgate... Those of you who havnt been in big clashes and are saying theres barely any lag need to go out and test the waters.
