Game is unplayable due to Desync/Prediction Error

Hi, My issue is that the game starts desyncing me whenever too many things are happening at once. It could be 2+ people shooting me at once, a care package dropping, an octane stims while shooting...

@fataIshotsOP I looked at your video from your main post and see nothing wrong with it. The shots missed were... simply missed. Either from aim flinch (taking flesh damage) or actual missing when they're strafing. Most of the issues are the earlier.

I've personally seen a lot of desync issues in apex, and they symptoms are quite different from what you're seeing here.

    @Ranked_Ape_4 In the first video, I already had landed on the ground, but my crosshair kept going downward like it was delayed and out of sync. It took a bit for me to be able to actually aim and by the time that happened, I was already as good as dead. I thought that would be the most obvious to see so I put it first. In the second video, I was on target until shot at then I simultaneously exploded and could not control my recoil in the short time that I was alive due to flinch. And the 3rd clip was just meant to show that this lag can trigger even versus a single person and I still got flinch. It also showed how I can no reg someone that is standing 100% still which is wild because that just means I'm not shooting at all at them on their screens. Of course apex has desync issues due to the way the devs made the game to be, if that were my problem I wouldn't have made this post. Also, did you see the 4th clip that I posted later on?

      The fourth clip you definitely had some desync / lag issue.

      First 3 I'm not convinced.

        Yeah it's usually hard to get a good clip that shows lag without a shadow of a doubt. If you were able to play on my pc you'd definitely feel it constantly, but being able to show it is a different story. Playing with this type of lag is not fun at all either so I'm not gonna have that many clips to work with.
