Hello. I'm new and I have to ask about the lag.

This is the only online game I play that lags so badly.. I actually have a pretty good internet connection (tested it on one of those ping sites). I've done anything I could think of to try to improve things, but the lag prevents me from really enjoying the game as much. (I like it so far when I'm NOT lagging like crazy...) I have to say that despite this being one of my favorite games thus far, I can't play with other people... (I nearly killed myself on a firebar when I lagged into it.) But to end this post, I must say I LOVE Spiral Knights thus far.

Firstly, did you send a bug

Firstly, did you send a bug report in-game or a bug report here on the forums?

Secondly, lags are just the offspring of a reboot and update.

1.) I do meet all the technical requirements (and then some...)
2.) It lags even when I'm alone.
3.) I haven't sent a report yet but I will.

EDIT: It doesn't seem to lag as much when I play Fullscreen, so problem solved?

- Set graphics to low
- Cull Transcients is a miracle worker. It stops effects that occur offscreen from rendering, DRAMATICALLY reducing lag. You'll get a few invisible bombs here and there, but the lag reduction is amazing
- Lower your Anti-Aliasing
- Activated Compatibility Mode
- Pull up task manager, find Java, and set Priority to High

That is what I do to reduce lag.
