FPS issues still remains.
I'll spent my last shot on trying to reinstall my O.S. but I have no hope anymore for fixing it.
Funny fact: on Trainning lobby fps is about 60 constant on ultra.
Here we go again...
I was able to fix (or band-aid) my FPS lag issue. For context, I used to run a GTX 970 on a Z97-WS with an i7-4790K. Ever since 9/19, my ingame FPS would drop to 34-50 fps intermittently in game. Drop ship or not, but particularly on the ground. There was no pattern or anything I can attribute to it, since it would just happen erradically.
I have since upgraded the GTX 970 to a 1070 TI SC thinking it was my GPU that was not able to handle the game anymore. Upgraded the GPU on Sunday, but still having the same issue.
Yesterday, new NVIDIA drivers updated (436.48) as well as the Season 3 update for Apex, so I'm not sure if any or either of those 2 things helped, but I also did something else.
I clocked my CPU back to stock and disabled XMP for my RAM thru my BIOS. I also uninstalled all ASUS programs running on my PC.
The massive FPS lag is no longer plaguing my game every few minutes anymore. I can still VISUALLY see some lag, but its not game breaking to the point where I can't track my enemies or move my view left/right/up/down without it behaving in a slow-mode way.
Anyhow, that's my experience at least. I have little faith in NVIDIA or Origin/Respawn/EA in having included a fix in the latest software update, so I'm attributing it to me setting my CPU back to stock speeds. Overclocking my CPU isn't a huge deal for me anyways.
Hope that helps some of you.

Thank you for sharing this with the community. 👍@EA_BlueberryI hope the core issue is still being looked at, regardless of whether there are band-aid fixes that users have found.
I for one am not thrilled that I have a K series CPU and cannot overclock it, solely because of a video game. - 6 years ago@EA_Blueberry I'm still stuck with terrible FPS. It's a bit better now, but I'm still at 40-50 fps and when I look the middle of the map I go down to 30, to the sky I go up to 150+ fps....
