I've been playing for a few days now test driving this game. This game lags like crazy! It's so annoyingly slow. Not to mention at many times when I'm trying to move my troops it oftens centers itself to my capital randomly. I was wondering why this game has so few players, now I have my answer. I'm definitly telling everybody to avoid this game.

I've been playing this game since the second world. I've never experienced any of this.

I've been playing for about 3-4 days now. And this doesn't stop happening. I use this computer for other games and movies and it doesn't lag on any of them. Then all of sudden I get to this game and it never stops while playing.

Internet Explorer is a lot slower. The creator of this game highly recommends that we use Firefox or Google Chrome. When I made that switch, the game sped up a lot for me. Maybe that is the problem?

My bet as well.
One user's browser problems does not condemn a game.

especially when that browser is IE.

i use chrome.

Agreed. I've never had any problems with the game on my personal computer. I'm using Rockmelt which it basically Google's Chrome and it runs fine. Go to settings and try adjusting the map zoom dimensions... That may help. GT is a little laggy when I'm on my work computer... until I set it to about 75 by 75 sectors... Then it runs fine.

Yeah, don't condemn a game because you don't have the patience to work out other solutions. Try again after downloading Chrome or Firefox and see how it goes.

I play at work, and heck i am using GOVERNMENT Computers made back in the 1930s. No problems at all.

Nice to see my tax dollars at work :)

LOL, I work graves waiting for a phone to ring. LOTS of down time. They let us use the internet to keep us fom SLEEPING. :)

yea right, the problem is you and your internet.

i have no problems.

I use internet explorer- so far no lag. Occasionaly squares start turning white if I start rolling the land around to fast and I get a time out message after using it 5 seconds, but these are fixed instantly when I renew the screen. I do get lag on several "non prototype" games like mafia wars, monsters in the backyard, ect but these simple graphics realy don't seem be slowing the game. Load time is always fast.

Chrome it on!

Since getting my laptop, I only used IE.

This game was bad, slow, and lagging behind on everything. I had a hard time moving around the map.

I switched to Chrome.

Everything is flawless.

Chrome = seven lesbians getting it on piled up on you.

Soooo, Greasy, sweaty and kinda heavy? And hopefully not the Lesbians one commonly finds in Seattle. Then REALLY heavy. And sticky. Kinda smells like hemp and pitchuli oil.
