Apex crashes in ranked
Can you help me? I keep crashing while playing ranked matches so I lost over 100rp today because of the abandoning penalty. Before the game was telling me that I was out the game and didn’t take rp a...
My game crashed during the middle of a ranked game with only 5 squads left. It kicked me out of the game and said that I could not rejoin because the game probably ended- it didn't. Now I have a 10 minute ban and didn't get my 150 rp for the match. The player should not be punished for crashes/server issues. It is extremely frustrating to have this happen in the MIDDLE OF A RANKED MATCH. Please fix this because I am losing patience with this broken game. There are plenty of bugs that have swept under the rug and they need to be fixed. #Boycott Apex August
Hey hey @furyballsUknowit,
I understand the frustration, though it's pretty much impossible to create a system that compensates for crashes.
Not every network issue is related to servers failing, this can be related to many other issues which EA/Respawn cannot detect.
Even if it were possible, it would easily be abused by players, which isn't really a situation that should be created.
Next to that, your teammates are still at a disadvantage, so it's better to punish the player so they'll seek out and resolve their issue instead.
From the image I can see that you're running at around 100 ping, accompanied with the red speedometer icon that indicates issues related to your latency.
If you're playing on WiFi then I'd highly recommend switching over to Ethernet.
Try following these basic guides too:
Switching datacenters might also resolve this issue, so try playing around for a bit.
If you're still getting any issues, feel free to come back!
(For future issues it's recommended to create your own thread, as older outdated threads might be related to other issues which might not be relevant to your issue)
Thank you for the swift reply. I will look into switching data centers if it continues to happen. It has only happened to me a couple times so I am hoping it's just a random occurrence.
