@EA_Barry my game is unplayable right now due to lag
Recently when i open the Apex application it is forcing me to select a "data center"
upon research i have learned it is best to pick the data center which has the lowest ping and lowest packet loss %
i followed those instructions and my game is lagging to the point where it is not playable still
no matter which data center i select the game is still not playable
why must i select a data center?? arent games supposed to place you in the best/correct server automatically?
someone please explain to me
what is a data center? what is packet loss %? this is ridiculous - i have never had to go through this with any other multiplayer game
my friend who lives within 10 miles does not have to select a data center and does not have any issue with lag
while in a party with him last night my chat would work perfectly fine while in pregame lobby but once we entered a match laggy gameplay and choppy communication started
after leaving the match and returning to lobby chat returned to normal
i place all the blame in this new data center feature - i just dont understand why it is a requirement for me and not my friend or other players
my internet connection is perfectly fine - i use LAN
i can confirm no issue with internet connection because i can play any other of my online multiplayer games with no issues or lag
i resorted to deleting the app and re-downloading last night after several disappointing and frustrating hours of horrible gameplay
still having issues
i would just like some explanation and resolution to this issue so i can continue to play one of my favorite games
i dont understand why i am forced to select a data center
