Apex Legends lag/stutter issue on Xbox one
Since season 9 launch the game has been pretty unplayable. I am getting massive amounts of lag/stutter spikes mid game. It almost always happens during a fight but will also happen if I am just runni...

@illnastyone I'm having the same issue. Now I just started working again, so my play time is down. But my play time was down substantially before I started the new job. It was down because I'd get frustrated by the lag issues and just close the game.
I have the next 2 days off and thought I'd advance on the BP, get a ton of gaming in this weekend. I've played maybe 3-4 rounds. The game is just simply unplayable. Bad movement, I get insta-knocked because by the time I'm notified I'm being shot I've already taken 100+ damage. So I can hardly fire a few rounds off.
I've voiced concerns about it. It seems to be an issue on consoles, I'm on a 2-3 year old Xbox One S. I have tried absolutely everything and nothing fixes it.
I don't have these issues with other games, played BFV for a bit and the game runs fine. I might try and complete the BP because I already paid for it. But beyond that I don't think I'm going to play much this season.
Buying a Series X sure, I will when I can find one. But I'm not going to pay some scalper $900 for one. So I guess until I can get my hands on a Series X, I won't be playing much apex.

@DarthValtrex I can tell you this till I'm red in the face. It isn't your internet. Support can only suggest trouble shooting methods on your end unfortunately. They are not allowed to admit fault on EA or Respawn's part for the game being no longer optimized for last gen. Sadly enough, that is the case. When patches come out, more and more code (amongst other things) are left in the current build they may or may not be needed and when things aren't cleaned up (optimized properly) these are some of the things that happen.
Thankfully, my newer console (Series S) has superior hardware and these things are not noticeable on it. Unfortunately everyone without a current gen console or comparable PC is out of luck. I can even play my PC and Series S on Wifi without any issues. So I can promise everyone reading it is not an internet issue. I even had a spare Xbox One with no games on it except for Apex Legends and it still did the stutters and freeze frames.
Please don't ban me again for "being disruptive" I am only trying to help and explain all that I have done and what ended up being the final resolution.
Upgraded console = Problem fixed.

Thanks for the accepted solution xd : To play this free game , we need a new console gotcha
- @hggrreew1111 Honestly wish there were something else in could say to help but I'd just be lying to you.
100% an xbox one issue. I play on my same wired connection on PC, 0 prediction errors. Xbox one stutters every 10 seconds. Got worse season 9.
EA, why aren't you admitting the issue??
- @snickertwix9 I can play wireless on my PC with no issue, even my Series S. The two Xbox Ones I own cannot play the game wired or wireless. Its just very poor optimization of the game since release. What I would do to have day 1 Apex Legends back...
