All day today I have had issues teleporting to spaces, and generally just getting in the game... I know others are experiencing this as well. Also extremely laggy for some reason. Over the past week ive noticed that bugs and lag are a lot more prominent than they used to be. Is this getting fixed any time soon?

Koda, can you please elaborate on what happens when you are trying to load into game and what is happening teleporting to spaces? Have you tried any troubleshooting steps such as clearing your cache? -
I've had these issues as well, just travelling to a space is a challenge now... The 'Joining Space' indefinite loading issue is something I've experienced before, but not as frequently as in the past two days. It happens on almost every space I try to go to, and I sometimes have to refresh up to 10 times until it loads. Connection issues are also very frequent, and it's not my wifiComment

If you have any kind of bluetooth device connection (headphones/speakers etc.) linked to your PC, and you are connecting/disconnecting it while playing the game, that will cause the space to disconnect/refresh automatically. As for simply entering a space, spaces that tend to cause the freeze delay, where the space doesn't load until you refresh, tend to be large spaces with many decorations/items.
In the meantime: Try going into 'Task Manager' (press ctrl, alt, delete at the same time) and view all programs running on your computer while playing SV. Task manager will display the percentage of CPU/memory taken up by all programs you are running in real-time. The more CPU/memory a programs takes, the more lag you will face on your computer. For example, programs such as 'discord' and 'steam', and browsers with many tabs open, are very likely to give you delay, especially, if you are not using a PC or desktop made for gaming purposes. When I am playing the game, personally, I try to keep everything closed except for the game.
In terms of actual settings in SV, inside the SV game, click the 'settings' gear icon. Then, click 'graphics' and select the dropdown 'best performance'.
Hope this helps, or gives you things to try, until a patch is made.Comment

Thank you, Noctus, for sharing some helpful tips and tricks regarding connection issues.
At times, as with most games, there may be temporary server-wide connection issues, which could be what you experienced over the last couple of days. Hopefully things have since returned to normal, but we will continue to monitor connection status and make adjustments as needed.
We are always focused on keeping the game fully operational and providing the best experience possible.
