Load of bollocks. Browser game or not it's shit.

Played for about 30mins, not sure if I like it. Was very laggy when I played it, but I imagine with the right direction it looks to be pretty good.

No noticable lag when I played.

The control is a combo of Eve and Freelancer as you can use the mouse to auto-aim your craft at a target. However, you can roll and rotate towards your target faster using the keyboard but I found the mechanism a bit fiddly at first though I'm starting to get the hang of it more now.

I found some of the out-of-mission stuff quite clunky, though its nice getting to walk around bits of Galactica.

When I was pressing a turn key it would take 2 seconds for anything to happen on screen. I do have half a meg connection though so browser based games aren't great for the lower end of broadband I suppose.

I wonder how much browser addons affect it. Might be worth seeing what is loading then disabling stuff while trying out the game?

I have no idea really, just a guess.
