is anyone else having trouble with losing connection to steam? I've never had issues with any other games, but now that I'm playing worms, I seem to lose connection almost constantly.

Odd you should say this, I've just lost connection with Steam. My friends are alright though.

Everything is fine here? Where are you located? I'm in the UK so maybe the Steam servers here are fine but dodgy elsewhere?

I find that my opponents keep lagging and either quitting or getting disconnected quite frequently. Anyone else getting horrible wait times between turns?

I've been disconnecting frequently from steam aswell today, though I've just got a 149MB update for W:R.
It's working now...

I managed to play only one online game today, and it went perfectly. Then the game crashed when I tried to play another one, and now I can't get into a game.
I can get into a lobby, but then one or all of the other players will have what I assume to be their network icons consistently animating and their light bulbs allways off. Then they'll proceed to tell me to press ready, despite my light bulb being on. I'm assuming it's some sort of network issue that prevents me from seeing when other players are ready, and viceversa. What could be causing this?
edit: Managed to get into another game, but this thing happens way too often. :-/

The light bulb thing seems to be a pretty wide spread issue. I have yet to be able to play a multiplayer game....which is kind of rotten because that was why I bought the game. I have a rock solid connection and play on-line games very often and without any trouble at all.
