Re: Bugs in Apex Legends season 19

Heya @L0ose_Cannon 

I've definitely been seeing a lot of players experience worse performance in recent times, so you're definitely not the only one.

I'd like you to try something and check if that fixes some of your issues.

Try deleting the assets folder in this directory: %userprofile%\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex

For some reason, and I do not know why, those assets can cause major performance issues and game crashes for absolutely no reason.

These files aren't touched when repairing or reinstalling the game either, as a different subdirectory within that one also stores the settings.

These assets usually get messed up with each season update, hence why you're probably seeing these kinds of problems pop up with the season launch.

The game will download these assets again on startup, so if you just delete them and start the game up, you should hopefully see improvement.

  • My issue did sort of go away. It could very well have been this suggestion, although it feels like to me now there was a increased load on the servers post season update. 
    Whether that is from something that changed in the code in the new season, and subsequently got rectified, or it was the assets fix you suggested, I'm not sure. I am only guessing. It wasn't black and white, I still had these random server disconnects (red disconnect icon the one sort of like a broken circle) which I normally don't get. Seems much better, if not completely resolved now.. thank god.
