I logged on at about 5:25 EST and started to get lag, and my computer dosent lag, So I changed servers to the least populated server and still had lag! I dont now if its just mean but please help!!
Major lag *PLEASE READ*
No the lag has definitely been terrible for the last few days. I'm spending as much time on 1 bar as 3 bars, and even my guildmates in the US are moaning about their lag. Those of us further away feel it even worse.
If a 480GTX can't run this game I don't know what can.
I'm lag too and it's not my connection nor my comp. It happens for the last 3-4 days, I think.
Since the 5/17 update (or sometime around there) older wireless routers are having real problems keeping the game connected.
Some threads about a specific router issue are here: http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/9438

For diagnostic purposes, can you all make sure that your router is not the issue? There might be other models affected by the patch. Please turn off the router and plug your computer directly into the modem. If the problem is fixed, then something is wrong with your router configuration--please report back with your router's make and model.
If your problem is not fixed...then something else is going on. Could you try a pingtest to some American servers on the east coast? (Washington D.C., Maryland, somewhere on that end of the continent). We need more data about your situation.
It's less than a year old and new enough to have wireless N, even though I'm connected by LAN...
I'm not going to say I'd expect a perfect connection to US servers, but just stating the lag (or rather the volatility or the ping) seems to have taken a hit for the worse recently. I now often walk around at a constantly varying rate :S
lol. its prolly cause of your graphics. turn it to low not high in the settings and it'll run smoother
