Every time I lag out I can’t load back in it just says reservation timed out
Do you get "code:net" before you lag out and get "unable to connect; reservation timed out" like I do? And if so, then you might want to try switching servers (but that didn't work of me so best of luck). Does this happen consistently with all of your matches or only with certain game modes? For me, it happens about the first 3 games on a new map or when I first get on Apex. And has there ever been an exception where it (for some reason) DIDN'T kick you out of your match? For me it's after my first 3 games but then I get random 150 ping when I should be getting 48-64 ping. Don't hesitate to let me know what you have tried to fix this error with.
i have the same issues since mid season 9. cant play the game with my main account because of it. i had to create another account just to play the game.
it doesn’t matter what game every single game that I lag out In I don’t load back in. I’m on Xbox so it doesn’t only happen on pc!
BREAKING NEWS: I just tried turning V-Sync on to "Triple Buffered" and I was able to get into a game and play with NO ISSUES! And if it doesn't work for you then try turning V-Sync onto "Dynamic". PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF TURNING V-SYNC ON TO "TRIPLE BUFFERED" OR "DYNAMIC" HELPS WITH ANYONE! IT DID FOR ME!
Gonna try that c:
The V-Sync thing doesn't work for me, sadsad
I get the same reservation timed out issue when I play on my main account. I have reinstalled the game on steam and on origin, I have rebooted my router countless times, flushed my dns and followed multiple connectivity troubleshooting guides without any results. I tried changing data centre multiple times too.
I tried playing on my other low level account and it worked perfectly. I never had any issues with apex ever.
I messaged EA Help on Twitter, they didn't really help, they said they would " keep monitoring the issues, and try to fix it if it's still a thing in the future " something in these lines, they also don't refund the battlepasses we bought but can't up since we can't play, quite the winners...
Yeah, I tried using V-Sync a few days later and it didn't work. Must have been a fluke or something like that. Also, does anyone else live sort of far away from their nearest datacenter? That might be why we're having this issue. I live in Southern California and my closest datacenter is Oregon. And (just wondering) what launch settings do each of you use??? I'm interested since it could also be why we're having this issue. IDK I'M JUST SPITBALLING AT THIS POINT AT WHAT IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE.
My data centrer is in Germany, i'm quite close to Germany, so...
If that's the case, can we all agree that this isn't an issue on our side and that this is an issue because of the EA servers, not us? Since I'm assuming that everyone here has done the "Troubling shooting guide" and the "Connectivity Guide" and has done a lot of research but nothing has helped. So I think we have 3 options.
1: We all create a new account and just play Apex (since someone said that it fixes the issue).
2: We raise awareness by contacting multiple devs about this issue and don't stop until they investigate this issue.
3: We just give up on Apex and play another game.
Personally I'm not certain which option to pick... let me know what you guys are gonna pick out of these 3 options that we have.
There's multiple tickets for this already. Check out the workaround on this ticket so you all can at least play while they try to fix it: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/code-cloud-Stuck-in-pre-match-loading-screen-until-error/m-p/10583959#M66525
I tried the alt plus tabbing workaround but it didn’t help. But maybe I’m doing it wrong. Do I just spam alt plus tab or do I just do it once after readying up? And does anyone know any other workarounds that might temporarily fix this issue? Would love to hear them. Or… I guess read them lol
I tried switching data centers like 10 times before every game and I was able to play like 1 out of 3 games. For now I have been playing on my alt account and I have no comnectivity problems. I really dont understand why this problem is account specific, I doesn't make any sense.
I tried the vsync thing and it worked for a couple of games in a row but then it stopped working. I am just dissapointed that apex doesn't do anything to resolve this because I also bought the battlepass and now I cant advance it.
I am facing the same problems, but have a higher than 50% chance to get an error....
this is really fustrating and might consider myself quitting APEX. I tried looking into my internet, I tried reinstalling, nothing iworking...................
Making Apex Legends minimized did not change the effect of this issue.
It's a damn true bro. I used to play apex with friends but when every time I want to play with them I'm the only one who stuck at the loading screen and they said “you're not in the game bro, just two people in this character select” every single time. And also, I only can enjoy my two games for every single map. I fix everything though my flush dns and so on but still I faced the same problem. The funny thing is I right NEXT to my router. Pls ea tell respawn to fix this we don't want to know about buff or nerf legends or weapons just fix thissssss. I'm beg.
Does EA devs even see these forums?
Making apex minimized (alt-tabbing) works for me like 90% of the time now. As soon as I ready up I alt tab and I click away from the game and I wait. As soon As the apex icon lights up yellow, I click on it and the character sélection menu starts. It's annoying but it works almost every time. I really hope they fix this because its horrible. This problem never happens when I play in Arenas though.
hello is this issuue fixed already? Apex Legends still wont let me play properly. Then it would be stuck in an infinite loading screen then it will say connection to server timed out ☹️
Nope. This issue has, somehow, for some perfectly good reason, not been fixed yet. It's a frustrating bug but I guess they're too busy making more 7 dollar apex packs (Sorry for the sarcasm but I think I'm going crazy because of this issue. Respawn. EA. Please. Help). But the best thing you can do is turn on V-Sync to triple buffered. For me, it slightly reduces the issue.
OMG, it just got worst with the new seer nerf patch, now it occurs 3 times the "usual"
i forgot to mention that if i switched to any other app like browser for example sometimes it freezes and i have to force close it, but not as frequently as the problem in question
It's worked for me bro. Thank you
