Ranked Play waiting times is * ! The higher you are in ranked the longer it takes to get games...... If you are diamond you will be sitting for a minimum of three minutes for games to Que. And that is a fast time ! On top of that after waiting all that time then we always get errors have and have to start over again. it has been at times 15 minutes waiting to get a ranked . Great Idea but dumb * results and waiting times

You've not played/won't play but seem to know an awful lot about issues with the game lol. They have corrected a lot of the lag issues, because since S2 dropped, all the slo-mo and stutter is gone for me on PS4. Still get end/start game disconnects but never in game. So that's a fix. The also fixed Gib and Caust damage debuffs. They change Pathfinder to. That's 3 off the top of my head.Uninstall it and play something else for christ sake.I still have 4 figure players in queue for ranked, even late at night and wait times are fine until you hit higher gold, but that's because the new ranked isn't even 2 weeks old. What are you expecting?We get it, you don't agree with any decisions Respawn make, so cut your loses man. It's in your best interests. Just leave lol.The cartoons are epic imo. I'd watch them as a mini series tbh. Keep 'em coming Respawn 🙂 Octane is my new main because of the S2 trailer btw.

The team is aiming to make improvements to the servers and have requested info from the community here to help speed up that process. We know code:leaf/net errors are the last thing you want to encounter while you're coming home from a long day of school, work, or enjoy your day off. For those hanging in there and providing detailed info for us, thank you. We'll do what we can to provide a status update on this for everyone as soon as we can. We have a lot of forum posts on connection troubleshooting where there are workarounds to minimize the amount of connection issues you'll face and dramatically reduce lag. A great example is how a specific network adapter adjustment can remove rubberbanding and lag. Be sure to utilize that search bar at the top! Our Live-Support team is always on standby if you want to go through connection troubleshooting. @xcr762 wrote: If nobody complains they will never fix it. Trust me, we hear the community loud and clear on this. We know it's a top concern and the devs included it in their recent post highlighting the dev tracker here. We never look at negative feedback as "complaints," but derailing conversations on the forums by going off-topic can come off as counter-productive feedback.

@xcr762 For someone that supposedly has not played a single game over the past month because of “connection issues “ you are on the forums a lot

If nobody complains they will never fix it.Dude, if you quitted playing how do you know if there are still problems whitin the game?Please, do not go on; not constructive complaints aren't good for the community and as i can see you are just commenting negatively under every post in order to put Respawn under a bad light. Build up something helpful and come up with some ideas; orelse you do not have any rights to criticize somebody else's job.

Well, I was sure long waiting times could happen if the playerbase gets split by matchmaking or additional modes. Considering how small the percentage of high level players actually is, the ranked matchmaking needs to probably have tens of thousands of daily active players on each server to fill the top tier matches at all times, which (I wildly guess) translates to Apex having the DAU in the millions...

As more players climb the ranks the wait times should be reduced, but we'll make sure the team is aware of abnormally long wait times so they can make changes if necessary as we get deeper into the season.

Good luck tonight!

The game doesn't have enough players to fill lobbies, that a good sign. Maybe fix the netcode and servers stop wasting time and resources making cartoons.

Hey lads, being the ranked system skilled based, in platinum, for example, it is normal not to find the same number of players there are in bronze: this is the purpose of a ranking system and personally to wait an extra minute is a good deal if this means having a good match!
As they said "code leaf", crashes and lag have high priority so there's no point to be here every day writing down the same things in every post, it is a waste of energy and time!

As you seems well prepared about the topic, i would like to ask you why we keep complaining but we do not quit playing Apex?

I'm complaining because they don't fix the netcode and in the current state its a laggy pile of garbage. The game could be good though I hope they fix it.

Yes i got it, that's why my question: why you did not quit playing yet?
Nothing personal, just curious about some player base's feedback!

I have quit playing. I come here daily to complain while I'm waiting for an update. If nobody complains they will never fix it.
