Clearly something in the patch got broken, but aside from a few bug fixes, nothing vital really seemed to be patched, although I'm sure you guys snuck in plenty of stuff that you didn't mention in the patch notes. I don't know if the Spiral Knights engine has the ability to do it, but while you guys are trying to figure out what went wrong and fix it, is there anyway we can revert to the patch before? As it stands, a lot of people are losing time on elevator passes, amplifiers, etc, which is a bit infuriating, and increasingly inconvenient.

The problem pretty much sums itself up in the title.

Whenever I try to open the in-game mail, the game freezes for an unforeseeable amount of time. When trying to click somewhere, it crashes and closes the game.

This is getting pretty annoying, so to say ._.

I've seen a ton of topics about the lag and problems caused by the recent patch, but none about what actually causes it. Looks like in this latest patch they tried to update some of the dependencies, I downgraded mine (and of course the natives as well) and the game works flawlessly again. Just a heads up so OOO can fix this problem easier.

Yeah, this patch definitely screwed the pooch. My kids and I play on four different systems, and all four have choppy video (hard 2-3s freeze every 15-20s) as soon as the game loads with the freezes becoming more frequent until about the 15m mark when the game completely stops functioning. All four systems ran perfectly stable at their listed resolutions prior to the patch. Now none run at 1024x600/768 even at low detail.

Like everyone else posting at the current moment.. After this last patch there is an extreme amount of stuttering lag. After about 30 minutes or so you disconnect..

I've disconnect in the middle of pvp games 3 times already...

I purchased a coin booster from supply depot between 1-3am CST 06/06/2012... in hopes of using it all today farming coins in pvp instead of my normal Fire Storm Citadel runs.

I planned to literally PVP 10 hours straight.

I cant be the only player using a gamepad, so, since last update the controller isnt working on this game, thats werid.

ok its a xbox360pad, a funny thing about this, seems like only xinput works well on this game, because analog stick from another devices (using direct input, I think) only can aim in 8 directions, but only the 360 pad aim in a fluid analog way, nearly like a mouse

So please, give us back gamepad support, its my only way to play this game. thanks in advance

Edit: OK I cant find where close or delete this post, so, you can find the original post here:

Yup. Everything has been lagging after this last patch. More than normal, and worse than ever. Hope you guys can clear it up soon! :)

I recently just played the furnace map after the update, and my game was plagued by extreme lag. I wasnt playing the game lag free up until that point , but the lag I experienced was horrible and got proggresively worse as the game went on, until the game froze. I have never had Spiralknights freeze on my so Im pretty sure this is a server side problem. has anyone else ran into this extreme lag on the LD map furnace

after the update i noticed haven and game areas are lagging by me jumping around halfway around haven but also my game froze 2 times first when changing from hall of heros which previews where lagging when showing up to haven then while i was in the main area of haven near the fountain. also it took me awhile to get on site cause log in though steam was being buggy.

We were unable to download the necessary files after five attempts. You can try running the application again,but if it fails you may need to uninstall and re install.

Well I did try later but no results the message kept appearing. I run Spiral Knights through steam. And do I need uninstall SK from Steam and then re-install it again for it to work properly again, or just wait it out and hopefully it will work?
