Aye, what I can say for the lag is lmost non-existence. But currently
they are facing packet losses problem which is kinda like freeze lag in uo
,but that is not as critical as UO in which u're totally screwed as in EQ,
u're usually with a party. And the freeze isn't that bad that u need to
relogin. It's just for that few seconds. And the server I played on is
usually somewhere close to the least number of players online at the same
time. For eg, Fenin Ro can hit close to 1.5k while Inno just hit around 1.2
or less so u can see that it's less lag in Inno.
