Server is overloaded

I can almost see the steam coming off the server as it tries to keep up with the massive load.
But seriously, it's starting to get unplayable. I'm dying like 5 times per Jelly run, normally I don't die at all.
At least the CE went down so it's not quite as painful to revive. :P
But I think the server is going to need an upgrade or something...

Usually I'd just blame my wishy-washy connection (that's the problem almost every time :P), but my party members were also having more lag than usual.
Could have been just temporary at peak time, I haven't been on for some hours... If so I'll just avoid playing at peak then. :P

I'm european so I always have lag issues, I didn't feel any changes concerning lag actually, even since the population got multiplied..
The Lag is unbearable. :/ screen freezes, glitching, jumping... servers definitely need upgrading.. this steam integration is killing me.
Chat lag, is also an insane problem right now.. i say somehting and it takes 2minutes for it to appear... same for my friends talkign to me..

Is the new post/thread button missing in the forums for anyone else? Can't do much in the bazaar if new threads can't be made.
There's different types of lag. Some are local and some are the server's fault. If your character or others are jumping around, it's likely the server or your connection. If your screen is freezing, it's your own computer. I was getting lots of screen freezing, turning vsync off seems to be a decent fix for the moment.

I met lag on my second run today, and it's a kind of lag I never experienced before. Every monster stops moving, the players continue to move in a straight line through walls and off the floor and after a while I get teleported to another place in the depth. After that, monsters stop doing anything and when you kill it, it's figure disappears but you still cannot move through them. Then it takes a long long time for them to finally die and drop something.
I haven't noticed any lag, and the whole time I was playing I was in ''red channels''.

Hum yes I noticed too...I can post replies to threads, but its impossible to create threads..I wanted to create a thank-thread lolz, but right now it looks like its not possible!

Yeah, the New Thread button fled the page. We found it trying to disguise itself as a flightless snipe. It will be returned to its proper place soon.
It's similar to the bug where it says you need to log in, but you can still post under your account. Also when it asks for email verification again.

Cool I can post my thanks thread now lol
I'm not having any issues in the dungeons, Haven is a little laggy though.
