Lag and freezing issues in apex on ps4

@YooHooc10222 try resetting your router and do the connection troubleshooting from the forum help center , if that didn't work then try to delete the game then............well that's all
I hope you weren't expecting me to say install it 🙂
ah ☹️, ok just reinstall the game.
one more thing, do a database rebuild on your PS, it will help not only with Apex bit it will make the system a little bit smoother in general

@YooHooc10222 Reinstalled it I mean

@YooHooc10222 I'd say your wireless connection might be the big issue here. The ping and packet loss can be fine, but wireless can cause many spikes, especially when there's a lot of traffic involved. The game needs a stable, large bandwidth, because there's a lot of data sent by the server on each update. If that data is not received in time, your PS4 won't be able to process frames in time and that's why you get freezes.

Also, ping you see when launching the game is always more stable, because there's little traffic when you're in the lobby.

I'd try a temporary wired connection to see if things go different. Also, lower all the video / audio settings to minimum to minimize performance issues.

@DoYaSeeMe You are right , wireless can be a problem some times and maybe someone is downloading or watching movies so that sure can cause lag but I don't think it will cause the game to freeze .
Also you don't have control of audio and video on playstation☹️
But yeah , @YooHooc10222 you could try it wired for some time and see if you get any improvement

@maximas1986 I tried rebuilding the database and uninstalled/reinstalled and it's still trash, so I'll probably have to find some way to change my connection situation

@YooHooc10222 it's not only the connection type , you have to check if someone else is using the internet while you are online .
if a single user is downloading something even if you have good internet speed then it will effect your online gaming

@maximas1986 Well yeah, that is of course going to cause the internet to drag, but this happens usually when there is nobody else on. I forgot to mention, but the rest of my online games seem to be fine. It has just been Apex that has been doing this.

@YooHooc10222 what's the ping you are getting and what type of freeze,
is it lag or game freeze?
honestly, I've never seen this issue before in Apex unless am playing with very high ping.
I advise that you do a wired connection test after you make sure no one else at home is using the internet, from my observation Apex is very sensitive about internet connection quality.
i can play any other online game with 140+ Ms ping with no issues , but for apex anything above 60 Ms will cause all kind of issues

@maximas1986 Usually, the ping is very good around right at 60, sometimes above, but for the most part has ran good regardless. It has only recently been doing this sort of lag/rubber banding.
