Are you all on the same network? Same country? What type of Internet connection do  you have, what's the speed of it,  is it stable? I believe this is all network related. What are your computer's specifications?

I good test would be to differentiate between a network or video card problem. If you are able to play single player with a fps of at least 6-10 minimum with the same number of units in game, then your lag issue ie likely network related. If you cannot play single player, than its likely your video card is horribly old. To get better results from poor performance video cards set your resolution in the game options to 800x600 and see if that helps.

My computer can handle World of Warcraft , Forsaken world , Battle field.  Something up with the game.  My internet is highspeed ,high quality internet ,im with rogers. My friend lives like 10mins away from me. We live in the same area. I dont know what happening but this what score is always in end

Harvested
1 2 3  players are like   20000 25000 35000   me im like 78000 or 80000 more.

Army 3 people  35 50 55   me its  200 or more units.

Is it just that im making more people and army the game gets laggy. I dont use my army never ,and the game says lag and ends the game.

There's always lots of lag when there's lots of units moving around. If I recall, someone said it was a pathfinder issue.

Actually these days, there's not a lot of lag usually. Unless it gets around 500ish, then well it gets a bit laggy.
Pathfinder issue? I think that was a different one, and it was basically fixed. It was related to workers being stuck...

Anyways, General Scar, please try this version of MegaGlest (SVN HEAD, latest development) version and see if you still have the same problems. http://www.mediafire.com/?0chgdnqgxxpc24e

If you still do, PLEASE read this thread first: https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=5332.0
