I play Apex on ps4 slim, and I have, for the past week or two, have had the game completely freeze for a few seconds, and then play completely normal for a bit, and then freeze for a few seconds, and...

@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.
