I have tested among Warzone, Fortnite and Apex, Apex got trash servers

From middle-east, Warzone: 90-95 with almost zero PL (my PC can't handle it, very low fps but stayed in games to check servers) also asked friends living close to me. Same results. Fortnite: 50-60, ...

    It's def the servers on my end. I've played in other countries where I have 200+ ping & a few months ago there were no issues. Past few days I can play on a server with 60ish ping & I'm getting little glitches here & there messinng up my shots. If I try playing in another country now it's even worse. I'm almost curious how it would run if I was wired. But I have a feeling I'd still have issues.

@hayhor Apex skill gap has been significantly decreased on apex its wayyy easier to win a game on apex than on war zone.

only thing i like on apex is its movement besides that it has nothing on warzone

Console version of Apex is literally soft aimbot 60% aim assist?

And its not because of the cod franchise name it’s simply because everyone is on the same playing field, same gear , can choose your own load out, a dev team who listens to their community.

Im done arguing

Google the facts on which game is competitive more.

Heck apex devs don’t even come here so whats the point of a forum for their game??

@BlinkxzAi Everyone is not on the same level playing field on warzone. I dont have access to every gun or attachment. On apex I do. And the weapon balance is pretty good. Hemlock is a bit strong right now but a nerf is coming.

And I've won enough quads warzone matches to know it's pure luck on that game. Apex is easier to win because there are way less people and you can escape fights. Warzone you round a corner and get melted by someone hiding. But guess what you automatically get a 2nd chance or your teammates get get you back by buying you or doing a contract. I've brought teammates back 3 or 4 times some matches. That doesnt happen in apex.

    @hayhor weapon balance is not that good, There is mastiff, there is double tab trigger.

      @WreckingVi The servers are trash and feel laggy because the game sometimes puts you into another server.

      My original server ping is 19/20 but in game it shoots up to 50/60


      No wonder i get random rubber banding some games

        @BlinkxzAi I dont think the rubber banding is ping related. It seems like when it happens it is the whole lobby in that particular game. I've had it when on 24 ping and when on 140 ping. I've also played perfectly fine for hundreds of hours on high ping.

      @Lord_Scorpion34 I assume you are seeing packet loss? I had a few days of that like 4 or 5 weeks ago. I never did figure out why. I'm wired. I'd never play a game like this wireless myself.

        @hayhor 0 packet loss! That's the irritating part! You'd think I should be smooth sailing but no lol.

      @Lord_Scorpion34 Fact is games doesn't eat up enough bandwidth that there will be problems even over wifi in your home. About the only thing that will cause issues in the home is buffer bloat. If you have newish networking hardware and prioritize gaming traffic then you should be fine. After that it comes down to your ISP routing to the game servers.
      You ISP usually hands off to backbone carriers who then route you to the local carriers on the other side, if any, then to the game server infrastructure.

      In theory there is a lot to go wrong and it is almost impossible for to get it looked at as an ISP customer. Backbone carriers are often run on skeleton crews and the 3 plus different companies involved in TSing these issues properly is tough to coordinate. I have been through it professionally as a Datacenter Engineer and as an ISP customer at home.

      In any case if you open that can of worms you are in for a very time consuming frustrating time.
