Re: Awful packet loss only on apex
Hi @BeanBeanBeanBeen
I'm in Australia and this is the case for me too.
This is a great game, but terrible Netcode. https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/f02vxz/apex_netcode_still_worst_of_all_brs/ Mainly due to 'packet splitting'.
I have struggled to play it over the years for the exact same reason. I suspect the 'Data Centres' are just relays to the main servers in the US. I get terrible ping spikes and packet loss frequently.
When it gets to bad I just go and play a more stable online game like Overwatch. I have bitched and moaned about this for a couple of years now - it falls on deaf ears. If the majority (The US) can play it, that's all they care about.
