What about "Lags"

I have played a long round Diplomacy today with a friend of me against AI.
After a while he had ~150 Long Range Ships (TEC)

At this point the game went unplayable.
His ping moved to over 500, we had sometimes 30second gamefreezes and those things.

So, my question is...what happens with Rebellion?
Will Rebellion lag exactly like Diplomacy in these situations?
Rebellion is steam supportet, so i think the connection would be much better?

Its not the connection but your computers. with this many ships your computer must calculate physics and move all the ships.

yes, sometimes its very cpu intensive.but even after he destroyed his fleet - there was no change.
still pingspikes with over 500 and freezes...crazy
i think the physics wont change in rebellion?
mhhh...is there something like a benchmark for sins to test the game under extreme situations like this?

There were substantial optimizations in Rebellion and more will be forthcoming in the next patch and likely through to release. Performance should be much better even on older machines.
