Eve Online wages largest war in its 10 year history

[Metalhead-]

What, is this because of the lag or something? Or is this how the game functions?

The battle is so big basically that the servers can't handle it and run at top speed. Therefore to make sure no one gets dropped they slow the speed down greatly to make sure a lost connection isn't the reason someone loses.

I've never heard of a game doing that before. That's actually pretty interesting.

its the only way that the server can process everything that is occurring without dropping connections or player actions.
