Hi all.

This game is totally unplayable. why is java crap runtime required to play it?
javaw.exe is running with 100% cpu all the time. game and sound are totally lagging. i even cant move ingame. i get thrown into different directions all the time. i see leaves moving around. is this wind? is this some kind of game feature to the thrown around in the tutorial???

i know my pc is not the best but it meets the minimum requirements:

athlon 64 4000+
2gb ram
ati x1950pro 512mb

i also tried lowest resolution and graphic settings. but that doesnt help anything.

Hello,

Yesterday i downloaded Spiral Knights™ without any problems updated it and created character and i have problem when im playing i have lags,
from 2 minutes to 4 minutes i have great lag for 1 minute, sometimes when im starting Arcade game im paying 10 energy and after 3 minutes im getting kicked "connection to serwer lost" or something like this, and i loose energy -.- but this happens less than these damn lags.
Today i lost 30 energy, yesterday 10.

Dear Spiral knights,

Since the update of april 7th I'm having a major problem with my FPS. My computer is very old and really needs to be replaced, but right now I simply don't got the money for that so I'm stuck with it for some more time. What makes me feel bad is the fact that I could smoothly run Spiral Knights before the update of april 7th and I'm really dying to know if there is any way to fix the problem and make it run faster again.
So far I don't know how to customize the graphics but to put it on low-detail, but I don't see any difference by eye at all..

I meet all of the minimum requirements (A tad more so on the processor) but my graphics card doesn't quite meet the game standards. However, neither do all of my friend's graphics cards yet they play the game just fine. Furthermore, I usually run this game perfectly when I first start it up and run a few dungeons. However the longer I play, the more tiny bits of lag starts to build up and then the lag gets so bad that it is unplayable?

Ok

I have a laptop with Intel Core i5 Processor 2.4 - 2.7 with toorbo boost and a integrated Intel HD Graphics with 1GB + memory, also i have 4 GB Ram, windows 7 64-bits.
but when i try run the game it doesnt work, my screen turn black and normal 5x and a msg appear JAVA ERROR " We were unable to initialize the game's graphical display" but i have the minimum requeriments...
HELPPPPP I want to playyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy...='(

Thank You.

I'm using a laptop, my pc is 13 years old and unusable, but i love playing games on my laptop, and i WANT TO KEEP IT THAT WAY
my laptop have crappy graphic card, and i dont wanna buy a new one, i rather buy a console. Since the last update, the 'special effect' like snows, thunder, fires, and the gears picture background cannot be turned off. The game is very choppy and it lags, i never found a way to turn off those effect, asked all of my guild m8s.. some of them that using low-end pc have the same prob.

When I play, an odd kind of lag gradually appears. The game runs smoothly under other circumstances, but when anyone fires a gun (swords are alright, bombs unknown), blocks break, enemies spawn or die and with some enemy attacks (usually ranged ones) the game lags horribly. At first it's bearable, but after around 5-8 levels of exploring I cannot fire a shot without experiencing a second of lag. Restarting the client fixes the problem temporarily.

Everytime I try to play, I get disconnected from the server.
I'm playing the starting tutorial and get horrible lags after about one minute.
After that I get disconnected from the game because it cuts off my whole internet connection.
I changed the Windows Firewall settings and Java is up to date. I'm not using a router.
Anyone got an idea what causes this problem?

Thx for the help

the server crashed and rolled back to the previous state
All the money i made during this time are all gone and so are the materials and energy.
I paid real money for energy and it is gone for no reason, are you kidding me????

The Subject says it all, i was going to depth 1, but having mass lag, goes back up, log out, close client, open client, log in, stuck.... Help?
