blocking fps at 190, 165 like my refresh rate, startup parameters like -freq, -high and the like, I turned on gsync but it didn't help either, I installed the game on hdd, ssd, ssdm2 nothing too, I ran the game as admin, I turned off fullscreen optimization , I just did everything and a little more and nothing, the game is to blame.

The game is really the culprit, cuz this is the only game i had issue with. Other games runs smoothly, Respawn for how long are you gonna keep this a thing?!?!?

So this isn't going anywhere. I love apex, and I really hope the devs do something FAST.

You can tell they are cutting costs everywhere, the game is so bad optimized that even arenas map are loading the whole map to play in a specific location. How much does it cost to reduce the map to only visible areas.

And yep still having 100% CPU usage. But hey, they can add a keyboard shortcut to buy apex coins at the lobby.

An update!
I deleted apex, deleted the local cache (C:\Users\<USER ID>\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex), REINSTALLED (through steam) but the stutter still remains.

For the 100% CPU/GPU/RAM usage, this worked for me and some other people in the Apex Legends discord:

go to

This PC > Windows(C: ) (or wherever your apex files are) > Users > (your user profile's name) > Saved Games > Respawn > Apex and from here, delete the assets folder, then run the game.

Do not remove local or profile, since those just contain your ingame settings. They will be completely reset if you remove those folders.

After doing this, just run the game. It will automatically redownload it without needing to manually verify your files. Last time I played and used this, I had to redo it again after I closed the game. So if the high CPU usage comes back, just redo these steps whilst the game is closed.

It's definitely not a permanent fix. We need to wait for the devs to fix it. They know about the bug, but are having difficulties pinpointing it down. So if anyone knows anything about it, @rspn_pav on twitter is a dev that people have been talking to about it on twitter. He's been trying to get as much information about the CPU bug as possible and has been asking people to share their PC specs with him.

If it's about information about bugs, like consistently replicating them/others, I believe he said that his DMs will always be open. But if you're hesitant about DMing him, I have a twitter link where people with the bug are just sharing their specs.

It's better to stay quiet if you have no idea how game development works. The devs have said that they'd need to recompile the whole map in order just to use one specific location.

So do everyone a favor and stop posting about something you have no clue about.

Already tried this method and it didn't worked ☹️

Bois I think I've found something. Check it out maybe? I'll try reverting to old drivers and let y'all know how it went.

For me the stuttering seems to happen when the ping fluctuates. It's going from 60ms to 100ms to 250ms and in between. That's when it freezes and stutters. I thought yea,could be my internet. But i upgraded my internet today and re-installed apex and tried to run it but nope, even with 2.5 times the speed of my previous internet, the issue still persists.
