This is a post i have made to the ArmorGames forum concerning your game. Here is what I said:

"I wasn't sure where to put this, but the new MMO Spiral Knights has some problems that really need to be fixed ASAP.

These issues include:
1. When toggling fullscreen on 1024x768x32 60 Hz the game crashes. (I haven't tried it on the other resolutions mainly because the game runs poorly even on my own resolution.)
2. Opening the options screen covers the page, allowing you to be attacked from enemies you can not see. Idea: make it a bar over on the left or right side of the screen.
3. Various sliders - moving the sliders requires you to click above the specified slider, and most of the time they still refuse to move.

In addition to these issues (I played a whole 3 minutes before finding these issues and having the game crash) the controls need to be reworked - movement is okay being WASD or the mouse, but the attacking needs to be somewhere in the IJKL area for American keyboard configurations instead of Z.

Gameplay needs to be smoothed out. MMO's in general face a HUGE enemy called LAG. Lag and rough movement causes more player deaths than anything else that I know of.

Once these issues are seen and looked after, I will most likely do another review.

Thanks for your time and for reading this. I'll attempt to find Sega's email and send this to them as well.

I hope that these issues may be fixed because this is one of the few ways I may be able to talk with my siblings who are in another section of the state.

Thank you for your time,
Begin-Again/Skelelord

It's more likely your computer's fault rather than the game's fault

Out of curiosity, what does

Out of curiosity, what does the game look like on your computer Trying? Is it pixelated at all or is it smooth? Hopefully I can find a solution to this so I can continue to be in touch with my siblings.

It runs completely smooth.
You most likely need to update your Java. Most of the people I know are behind on it.

Follow the directions here.

Java is updated. Looks like I don't have the correct graphics card but I meet the other requirements. I'll order one and hopefully all this will clear up. Thanks for the help :)

Um. You don't need a GeForce 5 series or ATI Radeon 8500 to play the game smoothly. The important thing is to do the steps after the list of minimum requirements.

The video card is a basic card from about 2000 lol. Everything else matches up after following the instructions.

Thanks for the help :)
