The lag doesn't make me unable to load players and monsters so the haven I am going in has no players in it for sure. Or maybe its the rare alternate spiral knights glitch?
whats up with the lag !!!!!!!!

Kinda fixed
I restarted my spiral knights and it still takes ages to log in. Infact its taking longer to log in than before.
EDIT: I think the server crashed. I can't connect to the server.
EDIT2: I think its fixed now, probably because it rebooted.

Either it crashed or they're
Either it crashed or they're restarting it and maybe applying a fix for the lag.

1. Red Screen Hit Border causes lag due to the high-rendered effects.
2. There is more than 2x the players than there was before the update.
3. Ping/latency issues.
Only thing causing me lag is mostly the red screen border. I noticed everytime I get hit the screen gets a little choppy. After 30 minutes I get dc'd for like 5 seconds.

Is the laggy Red Screen border OOO's way of encouraging us to not get hit? This is very bad for warriors (a.k.a. meat shields).

Just a comment to those saying it must be something wrong on the players end.
My entire guild has confirmed increased lag and teleportation after this patch. No, our computers and connections did not all miraculously start sucking out of nowhere. These are entirely new issues. Is it small enough to live with, yes. New, yes. Our fault, no. If you aren't having this, good for you

its the update and influx of people wanting to play w/updates
though it is really bad and seems to be worse now than before. hope they work it out soon. @ Mtax. youre not on a phone, so quit typing like you are sending a text and maybe someone could understand/want to read what you are saying. its a full keyboard, use it. (dunno why that bugged me so much) anyway... yeah the lag sucks but its probably not going to be around much longer. its just form all the people flooding back to play with the battle sprites and [scrap] about no heart res/ the crappy new heat system

Dude, it's a month later. There's no way it's still the sheer traffic causing this.

Me and my friends are getting ping 'n lag, but we think it's good!
We learned how to teleport and walk though walls!
And how to stop time and freeze enemies in place!
Isn't that cool?

@Batabii
it sure is, good sir. Even after one month, I'm seeing higher guild traffic, more guild applications etc. People have come back, and it takes time for most to level that sprite. While the initial burst will have slowed, the battle sprites have brought in new players, and old players have returned. Frankly, it's the only thing that makes sense right now.
Let's look at it logically: most everyone is experiencing higher latency than usual. Therefore, this isn't a few peeps with ISP issues, or poor computers who can't handle the new graphics/sprites etc and are mistaken frame drops for lag. This is a server side issue. What could cause that? Either Sk downgraded their package with Amazon (we both know they didn't), or the amount of people logging in now are using the allotted bandwidth much faster, and OOO has not upped their package. I've noticed a definite increase in lag after 9pm EST, on a daily basis. I've verified no one was on my network, and my package is over 35MB/10MB, so it's certainly not a speed issue. Hence, issue is server side, related to over usage.

Nowadays...
Sometimes ask others if they lag and They agree. Once in lockdown my game froze and I ran into a wall. To my suprise EVERYONE ran into the wall. I also saw eveeyone saying they lagged. Yeah I can hardly play. I'm glad to hear it isn't just me though.

What's wrong with SK servers?!
I've been playing SK for over a year, and this lag only started recently. At first, I thought it was my problem, but I remember before I used the same Internet at my house and I can always play with absolutely no lag. Sprites works well for me before as well and even then my connection was one red bar. However, now, it's literally impossible to play. I'd go on Vana only to waste over 10 sparks reviving just myself. If there's something wrong with the SK servers, please fix it, it's just totally ridiculous and if you don't fix it, pretty soon, you'll see people will quit because it's simply UNPLAYABLE!!!!!!!!!!!

So if your lag only stared recently, why are you complaining about it on a thread about lag which happened over three months ago?

The Russians
Lots of Russian join the game, they are causeing heavy lag to game I think becaus they are far away SK EU servers and their numbers growing every time.SK open server for Russians or Banned all Russians pleas.
As strange as it sounds, power-cycling all my equipment fixed the problem. This could be for a variety of reasons but I didn't really dig into it. Try and and see if it helps!
Edit: Oh never mind, it's filling up now, issue must have been fixed. Have fun!
