I have played this game for 40 hours without any FPS issues. It first started in the middle of a game, I have gotten a couple of kills and then went to loot the bodies and my frame rate dropped to 10. I tried lowering my resolution and settings thinking that my PC was just running slow, but nothing worked. I left the game and in the loading screen, my FPS went back up to 80 and then to 144 in the lobby screen. Tried going back into a game and the same issue occurred right off the bat. As soon as we picked our characters, my FPS dropped back down to below 10. Tried reinstalling the game and restarting my pc and nothing worked.

    Are you getting this in any other games?

    Open origin and go into the origin drop menu in the top left.

    Application settings then installs and saves.

    disable cloud storage.

    Now run the game play with settings then come out.

    Go to your user files and then saved games folder.

    In the respwan folder is all your settings.

    Delete the profile folder and the files in the local folder. (if you want to keep you keybind settings do not delete the settings.cfg file)

    This will reset your settings. try default out in training and see if this resolves the issue.

    If so adjust your settings carefully incase its a specific setting.

    Another thing to try:

    Right click the apex game in origin and open properties.

    Go to the advance launch option tab and in command line tab put this in it: +fps_max 144

    Save and start up the game
