Annoying Network Issues This Season

Ok so obviously each season start people gripe about server issues. But true season is a bit different. I've been getting what I can only describe as "blinks" or "flashes" while playing & they're not...

@Lord_Scorpion34 don't see how blinks or flashes would be related to network. That's usually a rendering issue, either there's too much to process and some frames fail to completely render or there's very limited memory and some of the assets fail to load in time to be rendered. Nothing to do with the data exchange with the server.

Some video would be interesting, link it up. My bet is on memory issues, as there's a new legend and we know that there are often memory issues after someone gets added to the roster.

Bought myself a Xbox Series X last Friday & have been playing Apex on that & on my PS5 (both next gen upgrades obviously) & have been getting the old prediction error symbols pretty frequently on both consoles which is a server issue on the game side.Been also getting general game stuttering & occasional screen tears & flickering frame rate drops but as DoYaSeeMe suggests this could be down to game rendering issues.Even though I'm hardwired to a router on both consoles & not on wifi other various online games I play the ping is is usually between 15-30ms but Apex seems to be always around 50+ms.Quite a rough game though on both next gen consoles & not the smooth experience we were led to believe tbh.Up until yesterday at times I was experiencing that terrible noise that sounded like the Gravity Cannon launching (but no Gravity Cannons were nearby).

@DoYaSeeMeI'll check my recordings.
@Redmattgame I couldn't even play today was lagging so bad lost nearly every fight I got into. After 3 or 4 games I shut it off. Not going to continue to lose RP cuz the servers are acting up.
