I played it from the moment it released early 2009 untill august and really liked it. I especially loved the area of effect skills in this game which all classes can have. It made quests for which you had to kill a lot of mobs a lot less grindy. There's a review in the free mmo's review and discussion if you're interested. I never had any lags and I'm from Europe so you should be ok aswell. There are 15 channels on this game, the first being a trade channel where the player shops are. That leaves a lot of channels for leveling without the quest areas getting too crowded.
