Re: Game freezes after new mid-season update (Lobby)

They broke something.

Before, every time I updated or reinstalled the Nvidia driver, I had to wait a moment before being able to play while the map cache was processed.

Now I can immediately jump into the game, but the maps are processed while I play, my old cpu is at 100% while I play.

    It's funny how some comments here describe EXACTLY (word for word) the problems i have actually in Apex.
    I can describe what I observed in 3 parts :

    1) exactly what sebashooster says here !... same difference about how fast Apex compile the shaders (after new Nvidia driver as after deleting shaders cache) and top high CPU usage.

    2) After that... my game freeze most of time in the lobby.

    3) At last... on the rare occasions when I've managed to launch a game, i had a terrible lag i never seen before in Apex that make the game unplayable.
