I am experiencing a significant issue with severe input delay while playing Apex Legends on my PlayStation. Here's a detailed explanation of the problem:
Input Delay: There is a noticeable lag between my controller inputs and the game's response. For example:
Moving the analog stick causes a delay of about 1.5 seconds before the cursor or character registers the movement.
Button inputs (X, Circle, Square, Triangle, L1, L2, R1, R2) also lag significantly, making the game unplayable.
Troubleshooting Attempts:
I have deleted and re-downloaded the game multiple times with no improvement.
I have tried different servers but still face the same issue.
I tested several controllers, and the problem persists.
I tried playing Apex on different accounts on my PlayStation, and the issue remains.
I reset all in-game settings back to default, but the issue was not resolved.
However, this issue only occurs with Apex Legends. Other games on my PlayStation run smoothly without any input delay.
When I used my Apex Legends account on a different PlayStation, the issue did not occur.
Additional Details:
My internet connection is wired, so it’s not a Wi-Fi signal issue.
My ping averages between 30-50ms, indicating stable network performance.
This is a brand-new issue that started around the first week of November, I have been playing Apex Legends for years without any problems like this before. Also, this issue appears to be isolated to Apex running on my PlayStation.
- Oddworld949 months agoNew Ace@THEleobello Are you sure it's input lag? I have that similar delay feeling but I think it's caused by the server because the game just feels sluggish and AA is not triggering at the right time. Normal ps5, wired, 30-50 ping and no packet loss. I also have good gaming monitor.
- 9 months ago@Oddworld94 Thank you for replying. It is not the server since I’ve changed it and I still have the issue. Also, I don’t experience this issue with my second PS5 on the room next door in my same apartment.
