    Re: Firefox sucks for FFR

    As much as I love Firefox I find things like Flash and Java apps run better on IE. Since IE is the mainstream these plugins are probably optimised with IE in mind. Although Firefox is getting better with time.

          Firefox is much better then IE.

          We have something called AdBlock+
          No adds.
          There we go. And Firefox does not have lag spikes (for me anyway) and it runs smoother. Before, I had a synced problem, but that seems said and done. IE is just a lag *** for me now.

              Hmm...I would consider using IE for FFR if it weren't a gaping security risk to do so.

              I may have to try it once to see about this framing issue. Firefox has had blatant problems with Java since 2.0 came out, but I didn't know about Flash.

              I suppose I should have known though - isn't Flash integrated into IE? I can't honestly remember.

                  I use FireFox for everything except for when playing FFR. FFR is the only reason I still have IE installed on my computer (I uninstalled it a while back, but I couldn't stand playing on FF.) I even browse FFR's pages with FF, just not with the game.

                      For the longest time I would swear by IE. Not sure what was in my water at that time, but now, as a web developer, IE is the biggest pain in the ass ever. I've never seen a difference in the speed of ffr between browsers. Then against I have a quad core system, so I can't be the judge of anything.

                            Eh. Firefox doesn't work for FFR, much. I use IE for FFR and Firefox for everything else.

                            Firefox: Odd syncing, bad lag on some computers, bad loading
                            IE: Occassional long gaps of lag, scores not sent sometimes

                            I haven't tried Opera yet. Does it still have the IE problems?
                            I fail to AAA.

                              IE sucks for absolutely everything, except perhaps playing flash applications. If you really want to use IE for FFR, I recommend you just create an icon on the desktop (or somewhere else) which automatically executes IE to run FFR the game. That way for normal browsing of everything else, you get a much better experience.

                              Personally when I've ran on school computers which ran IE6 and IE7, I haven't had good results at all... probably just due to the system and internet quality, which are both a little worse.

                              Also something to note: admins, if you have lots of IE6 users, you should really consider not using pixel based font sizes, because their text will not be resizable.

                              Update: so I tryed playing on IE a bit more right now to test stuff. Perhaps my system is too fast (only an A64 3200+), but there was no noticeable diffrence. What did happen though is my computer completely froze and restarted quite early on on this testing. for the record, for the 3 years I've played on firefox, this has not happened. Perhaps IE was just really damn unlucky though.
