Lag is also a laymen's term that means: Fail to keep up or to fall behind.[1] In real-time applications, the term is used when the application fails to respond in a timely fashion to inputs.[2][3] The most common use regards online gaming when the game doesn't respond in sync with the player's controls, usually due to a slow internet connection, server latency or overworked hardware.
Lag is also often used in reference to video games to describe the delay (or latency) between an action by a player and the reaction of the game In the technology world lag typically is something you are describing when talking about network communications though. |

Lag isn't a very precise word in this case, so extra information always helps. After reading the rest of the posts it looks like you had a drop in your fps in large battles (which everyone suffered to some extent) - and the patches over the weekend should have patched that back up to more normal performance.
The important thing is to be descriptive - "In big battles, there's a bunch of frame lag" is easier to figure out than just saying "Mother of Pearl, the lag!" - context is everything! 'Lag' covers too many things to be helpful on it's own.

After the past few patches i have seen immense performance increase. Instead of 5 FPS in a bio lab battle. It is 15-20 frames. So keep up the good work and i may beable to turn my resolution onto highest. I'm even surprised its playable on my laptop.
