So I remember playing this game about 2-3 years ago on my old computer and enjoyed this game a lot. Eventually I stopped and went on to other things.

Just recently I got a brand spanking new, shiny computer (which i'll put the specs at the bottom of this paragraph) and decided to download Spiral knights on this computer.
But i've been running into huge complications with downloading it...

Hello. I played SK through Steam, but since I am using another computer, do I really need to go through the installation of Steam just to play using my Steam acc or can I just play through the browser. I ask this question because when I pressed play after logging in through my Steam acc it just won't open and just displayed in the address bar steam://rungameid/ something something, unlike when I did the same thing before logging in and it works fine. Help is deeply appreciated :D

When I open up SK it zooms in and I cant do anything. When I close it, for a second, it stays zoomed in and then it goes back to normal. I have a steam account and a normal one but they both have the same problem. I've tried adjusting the screen resolution but that didn't work. Can anyone help me?

So yeah as the title says the screen flashes black and then back to the desktop repeatedly when I try to open up the game. After a while it just stops on the desktop and thats it. Java stays open so in order to relaunch the game I have to close it on the task manager. Even doing that it still happens. I've reinstalled, made sure Javas updated, Graphics card up to date, I meet the requirements and made sure the firewall isn't blocking the game or Java. I've also ran it on administrator but still nothing. I usually use the steam client but then it just started doing this.

Hello everybodey,well i have a proble! I dont know mail or username from old acc but i know name of knight,and i would love to get it back! Please Help!!!

I keep crashing on most loading screens, and sometimes even in the middle of a level. Usually I can then just boot up the game and start up where I left off, but it happens so frequently that it is becoming annoying.

I have Steam Overlay disabled, my graphics settings are on minimum, and I play on a Windows 8 computer. I have no idea why the game could be crashing like this, and none of my other friends seem to be affected by this issue.

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this and how I could fix it?

I'm unable to log in through Steam in-game. There is literally no button that gives me the option to log in through Steam. I don't know how problems with the Steam client could change something as taking out a clickable button in a game so OOO have either done something or that is actually possible because when I logged into TF2 I had problems with that game too. Couldn't go into servers and didn't have my loadout. Has this happened to anyone else?

It does not matter what I am using or what settings I tweak, the servers are always gpoing wacky and causing me to die at very inconvenient times (i.e middle of the battle and enemy walks off the map and onto the sky.) This very last time I was in Beastly Brawl Arena and everyone froze. Then they tell me I got disconnected for the millionth time, then when I go back in the game loads me back into Beastly Brawl and is frozen on the loading screen after getting to 99%. I am sick and tired of the crappy server disconnections. And now I can't even get past a frozen screen.

Hello all,

I haven't been able to run Spiral Knights on Linux Mint 14;. Originally, it was possible to, but after a patch update a message came out like this:

Anybody have the same problem? I have no idea how to fix my Java,

So currently game runs great on High settings for me, but sometimes it goes far from 60fps and then it start to overheat my computer, as soon as I turn on VSync to cap at 60fps I get huge loss in performance, so I must change settings to Low, to be able to play smoothly.
I did talk about it with my friends and guildies in the game, many of them experience the same overheating issue.
VSync is not a solution a tall, because it is a minor cosmetical change which cost a lot of resources. Sometimes I have even worse performance at Low settings with VSync, than at High settings without it.
