Issues I'm Experiencing After Genesis Update

Issues After Update:

-Lag that makes the game impossible to play
-Audio errors when fighting or whenever it happens
-Extremely high memory usage
-Congestion in servers
-Code Net and crashing
-Freezing in the main menu
-Textures never loading in (weapons mostly)
-Mouse movement issues (Mouse Locks Up)
-Freezing in matches
-Unable to pick up items due to lag
-Holding "E" for action doesn't work for a few seconds
-Packet Loss
-Latency even though I am connected to the closest server
-Prediction Error every few seconds
-Extremely high latency even though sever says otherwise
-Extremely slow match summary/report loading
-Stuttering in-game


These are most of the issues I've experienced during the Genesis update. These didn't happen or happened rarely before the update but happen all the time now.
  • I found a fix 

     
    1. Install latest Geoforce Driver
    2. Search up in task bar Control Panel-Search in the search bar of Control Panel: Systems-View Advanced Settings Under System-On the Advanced Tab Select Settings for the first bar (Visual Effects)-Put PC setting on best performance.
    3. Go to settings- search up back round apps- Turn off apps like photos (only ones that don't effect PC).
    After I did this SO MUCH BETTER. Still you will get natural server lag, but the game will run a lot smoother with barely any freezes.
    (Things like youtube text might not look as good after this.)

  • Hey, @Federal_Seeker  @JonasDumac can you try to do a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with APEX and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

     

    Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

     

    Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

  • @EA_Atic I've tried clean booting and closing all programs except Steam and Apex, but the problems still persist. I've attatched a dxdiag which hopefully helps.
