Lag spikes every game??

I am having trouble also, I'll be in a fight and my game will freeze for a solid 5-10 seconds. No internet issues

Legit having the same problem. It's saying that my ping is dropping but this never happen before with any other game, It also lags my discord making the connection go red bar I hope EA comes out with a hotfix for this since this already got me killed twice in game.

Yeah, seems if I play with east coast friends if they're the party leader I lag (I'm central west). If I'm party lead I hit a lagspike every couple games.

Having the exact same issue - GTX1080, 32gb Ram, i7820 4GHZ Alienware Area 51

I have the same thing tried lowering my graphics to the lowest and nothing 
on the right corner appears red sigh like speedometer but my internet is good and I play fortnite with no issues  

I'm having the same issue. Every game, at least 10-20 times per match, my game lags out for 10 or more seconds. The game is completely unplayable in this state. It's really sad to say, because I'm absolutely loving it. We've played over 24 hours since release and I started having problems about 4-5 hours in.

PLEASE patch this. Please.

Same issues. Game is literally unplayable when every 60 seconds or so I'm getting a 5-10 lag spike that acts more like a game freeze.

It's worth noting that I'm using a wired ethernet connection, and have 150+ mb up and 20+ down with sub 10 ms ping to every other major game out there. i7 processor, 1080Ti GPU, 32gb of RAM. There's no reason that this should be happening.
