Re: Game not fit for purpose

i can report the same.
Empty a whole purple mag on target 1 bullet count as a hit, while i die in a split second despite having a purple shield.
Internet seems fine , no icons nor the loss counter tells something would be wrong. 
And i dont believe those are cheaters, bcs when i spec they are not remotely able to track a target, but they managed to track me perfectly while being magically shielded from any damage , gimme a break ?
And this all started with S18, so there its the game not our internet connections
Respawn rather fix those issues before introducing stupid perks and yet another rank system that wont be accepted by most players.

    @r1ggedgame Similarly yesterday one cell short of full purple shields I got downed with 4 shots from AR from long range... only 4 shots registered my end and most bullets were meters wide of me. Says I got hit by loads.

    I recall the other day killing a downed opponent when I shot about 2foot to the side of him (I completely missed.)

    Yea, there were always issues with that, but to a degree i could brush it off as some weird effects like every whatever 10th game.
    But now it feels like on 5 days of the week every match behaves like this, while on the other 2 days if feels okish

    Every single game now.

    Every weapon is downing me instantly one shot.

    Volt. 1 shot dead.

    Havoc. 1 shot dead.

    Any range any time always 

    Dead game.

    UNPLAYABLE GAME

    @1ronKeys My bullets are literally going through opponents. Through them

    No damage.

    Or emptying full magazines twice into opponents still standing.

    Downed in one or two hits constantly.

    Tumbleweed Arts remain silent.

    @Wid0w_kiss Same just deleted it.

    Not had a single game last more than 2 minutes.

    Empty 2 whole magazines into enemy doesn't down them.

    Bullets going thru players.

    Get downed in 2 bullets from ANY weapon.

    EA just taking the p*** at this point

    @1ronKeysAny videos of this? I'm not seeing this at all. Wondering if it's some syncing issue.

    @hayhor What's a syncing issue please brother?

    Nah I don't have much capacity for videos and also cbb recording them too often.

    I'm sure I took a few. It just gets so tiring. And not had great or honest help when dealing with EA before.

    @1ronKeys I mean what you see and what your opponent sees is significantly different. Could be an issue on your end, theirs or the server itself. You can do a few things to ensure it isn't you. Resetting your router/modem. When going into the game, pick a different server. Sometimes even higher ping might play better for you.

    i highly doubt its sync issues on my end, they would show in other games too and also with the ingame network icons and networks stats (no sync icon showing, no loss nor choke).
    My suspicion is a high rate of "out of region players" that shift  the delag delta in their favor.
    The more high ping players on a server antilag has to  work "overtime" and most antilag routines are made in favor of the high ping player, otherwise they would miss the point.
    That paired with overbooked servers (you can tell by the magically declining ping when a huge chunk of teams died).
    So server might drop packets/ dont process them  if its under heavy load, most likely from lowping players bcs they update faster ... but with Apex having that "20 tick multiple shots in one packet" netcode ... might be likely a reason.
    Als if my connection would loose packets, there would be the infamous rubberbanding, bcs the server would try to set me back to the last known position.

    @hayhor Maybe I'll try playing in a different continent or country then

    Any servers known to be particularly good ?

    @1ronKeys You obviously have an aiming problem where you seem to think that aiming on target then shooting is enough to hit them. Nope the enemy is a moving target the time it takes for your trigger and bullet to travel is enough to miss a moving target.

    Go in the firing range and set the dolls as moving you will need that training.
    Look at pros... when there is a distance between them and the enemy they shoot a little in front of him so that his movement and bullet travel time can result in a hit. Pros are live right now in ALGS.

    We need to see the videos of you not downing opponent with 3 mags we could then easily point to your problems. If you don't down them with 1 mag it means you miss a lot of shots!! If the problem was the game then pros would miss too. The problem is obviously you who miscalculate how to hit a moving target.

    @Palette24carats No, I do not have this issue; as expressed. Usually I have been wiping and slapping enemies.

    And similarly, as others have experienced, there have been times when enemies are being downed almost immediately half a mag of an smg or weaker when full shields.

    This has nothing to do with aim (or very very little) as I'm quite aware when I'm shooting poorly - in those cases I get annoyed, but at myself.

    In times when I'm point blank drilling a whole magazine into a stationary opponent then continue to riddle them with another mag or two before getting downed after two hits - with this happening I know something is amiss (and it's not my shots) - as expressed I experienced this before in Battlefront (another EA title unsurprisingly) where I drilled a whole assault rifle magazine into the back of an enemies head - their health went down half way. Then completely stopped going down; yep hits and hit animations but their health bar did not reduce. And they then turned around and downed me in two shots.

    Something entirely suspicious is going on there, whatever it is. Whether it's the game... eas servers... or whatever else. That behaviour is what I'm experiencing now.

    I usually getting 3 - 6 kills a game pretty frequently. For the past week I've been getting 5 kills every 20 games.

    White shield enemies aren't even getting downed with 3 rattlings of an r99 from close range.

    I would love for it to be an issue with my aim; as it means there's something I can do about it. However. Its not. I'm hitting the shots.

    A new one as well now...

    My player stops being able to run and only moves at walking speed fot 2 seconds then I get downed in 2 shots.

    Don't try blaming my Internet my connection is fine. Everything in the world works...

    Except...

    Oh of course... EA Apex.

    Same same nonsense with fifa. Same Same nonsense with Battlefront.

    My Internet is fine. Maybe I don't spend enough money on the game have to buy more skins this ea encouragement.

    Why am I getting downed BEFORE I've been shot.

    Scam game. Absolute scam.

    I assure you the problem is on your side as we dont have that problem but just a tiny minority of players. 

    Can I watch you play? Ill take a look at your twitch.

    @1ronKeys it takes a minute to get an account you should do it. I created a twitch account for that single reason to be able to rewatch my plays to learn how I could improve and have a different views on the plays and think about what was best for me to do in those situations where it didnt go well. That is also a moment where I noticed I really needed to train my aim as I was missing way too many shots.

    One of the most useful tool to improve is cast yourself on twitch. Also it is motivating to have a few wins saved to rewatch.

    @Palette24carats Well my PlayStation failed to capture my win last night... my team members quit along the way and I held tight when down to 4 squads and pounced on the final team... one was downed, the other looting I downed with G7 and had to bridge the gap to a bocek wielding oppo Ash (I Ash too) and won with some clever manoeuvring and re45 work.

    So does twitch just record your game? Concerned how it may impact performance re internet and console having to do extra work.
