Flaank

It might be the problem but I have specifically gone in and selected the "preferred gpu for this game" option in the control panel. I realise that the integrated GPU is way below the limits but I was hoping for a fix. EDIT: Trying the global settings to see if that makes a difference.

Following with a resolution hopefully in the not to distant future. At the moment 9pm is right in the middle of my prime time. When daylight savings ends that will help a little but -1 or -2 hours wouldn't even be noticed.

I have posted in Steam boards but will post again here. This is my secondary/travel computer. Does server side settings cause issues? i5 - 2410M (low but others are in game with the same or less) GT 520M direct x 11.1 shader cache 5.0 according to the Nvidia site. Nvidia GPU selected for both files in Control Panel. http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gt-520m/features 8 GB Ram W10 - tried in compatibility mode for W7 on both client.exe and client_.exe Cache verified on Steam Launched in normal and x86 modes Anti virus file exception for NA folder ping of 317ms from hotel wifi but could ports could be blocked. Mobile internet isn't an option in this location. Any one else come across this on their laptop or secondary pc? EDIT: Fixed. It appeared to be a firewall issue with the hotel. Loaded the game fine at home.

In the clan and linking up for some people asking elsewhere

New to the game and maybe on the to-do list already but ... Can the chat in the battle instance be on when you spawn in and be toggled on/off by a hotkey. I feel like I may have missed some chat as a newie and when playing ungrouped others may be unaware that the ctrl button is the key to toggle the cursor to toggle the chat bar. I only have http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/1964-keyboard-shortcuts-list/as a keyboard guide so perhaps I am missing some other hotkeys/shortcuts anyway. Thanks. Great game. I think I may have found a new home.

Thanks Admins. As a fellow Aussie I support this

Always sell the ships or break them up?

Thanks for this. Captured my first Trader Lynx after wondering how I would ever catch up to them.
