European based servers, maybe too much lag for US players
Not a bit for me. I'm on the East Coast, admittedly. I am in upstate NY near the Canadian border (about an hour and a half from Niagara Falls). I average 150-200 ping. I can and do outrun kitin regularly (without speed-up). The only 'lag' problems I have ever had are the few times the server's had some issues. (And despite how much complaining happens when that happens, I've had it happen all of 4 times in the 6 months that I've played and it never lasts very long. I play way more than I'm going to admit, so I'm not just "missing" the server issues by having a short play-week.)
In fact, most lag issues mentioned in game usually have to do with the router a player is using, or their computer and their graphics/sound settings, etc.
I can participate in an OP battle with average graphic settings and not lag, but I'm using an nVidia 7900GS (I think it's a GS).
Just wanted to toss out a few pence on the matter of US players and the potential for 'lag' because of it.
Javings are only doing what they are supposed to - making themselves a nuisance!
