LAGGING ISSUES FOR CONSOLE PLAYERS #FIX
A few of the community members have said that loading the game (Apex Legends) to an external SSD has solved the lag, rubber banding, micro lag etc for XBOX ONE users. Just wanting to know if anybody...

@SILVERisSORRYI play on PS5 still get lag and stuttering, I don't think storage got anything to do with the lag .
what really helped me is changing the DNS as one of the Cms suggested to another forum member .
but in general STAY AWAY from Frankfort servers 🙂
@maximas1986 Where are you located and what DNS settings did you use?
I was suffering stuttering issues that was rendering Apex unplayable.
Here is one example of a stutter death (and some wayward shooting):
And another that was particularly annoying
To rule out internet speed issues, here is video of me playing Paladins after I had quit Apex in disgust after that last stutter death. More data (ten players as opposed to six) and zero stuttering (and lots of spammy shooting, but that's Paladins for you)
So, I took the extreme step of completing resetting my XBox One (which really was my last resort) and you know what? It worked! Played for four hours yesterday and not one single stutter! Yippee! I'm guessing over time the internal disk gets fragmented and Apex cannot access the disk fast enough when this has happened. This is just a guess, though. By wiping the disk and redownloading Apex the stuttering stopped. If you have problems, try this extreme step. It worked for me but YMMV.
- @EdwardDLuffy So I guess on this one occasion, we PS4 players can be happy we have to spend a half hour minimum downloading updates!
- @RockDokRock am in Qatar, I used the 8.8.8.8 DNS
