Seems like normal... then again, I've never been d/c before, so that's not saying too much. At any rate the chat rate does seem faster. Thanks.

An example is i can say live chess is now easier to login, and is more stable then msn messenger. :)

Avatar of hsbgowd

No lag for sure. No disconnections, but need to play more games to know for sure.

Thanks erik. Keep up the good work.

Just played a game of blitz whilst downloading in the background, no appreciable lag and the pieces were moving nice and crisply.

Opponents clocks still running backwards sometimes in non-delay games.

Ha ha ha, you can't understand this, can you? In spite of countless explanations.

Avatar of costelus

About the original question, it appears to me that piece movement is different. I can't explain, but my eyes get tired with the new animation/piece movements. I find it quite bad, the old one was just perfect.

Today, I had a disconnect while my connection was ok and I lost the game  ! too bad !

I don't usually have dc. issues, but I did have to deal with lag sometimes. Now, there's no lag!Smile

DISCONNECTS!

I played a 30min+5 live game today and got several momentary disconnects, as did my oponent. I haven't played much before the change so I can't comment on any differences.

It seemed better yesterday but today it looks like it's going back to normal. We'll see in a few more days.
