Apex Unplayable Lag
Hey everyone so as the title says, my apex is completely unplayable on my PC. I just started playing recently and I don't know what these two red symbols are on the top right but I'm guessing they're the reasons why I'm unable to play the game. Ever since I downloaded the game I haven't been able to play at the firing range let alone a public match. I am highly doubtful it's my hardware or network connection because they/re pretty up to date and they don't pose any problems on other games like Warzone or Fortnite. The strangest thing is that my brothers PC runs it just fine and he has pretty much very similar specs to me which really makes me question what the root of the problem can be. Note: All of my drivers are up to date and I have re-installed multiple times.

If anyone has had a similar issue or know someone who has and knows how to resolve it or can lead me in the right direction that would be much appreciated. Thanks 🙂
Hey there @JoeBasquiat,
The most left icon would indicate UCMD Delay, which could be caused by the route your internet is taking.
The right icon indicates an prediction error, which could also be caused by the route.
Firstly, try these guides:
If that doesn't work, try switching datacenters to see if that resolves the issue.
And if that does fix it, please mention what datacenter that causes this lag.
I've also noticed that many other users are experiencing this, which leads me to believe that this is an issue directly related to the servers.
I think it's better to try and fix this issue from our side, that way we can at least try to resolve it before a fix is pushed by EA/Respawn.
