Re: This is so bad, it takes forever to start apex!! Need Help!!

@Rranim First I would verify the integrity of your game on Steam, which doesn't hurt. Then I would do what's in this post: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/This-may-be-the-fix-to-high-CPU-usage-Replicated-and-Fixed/m-p/10494141#M125828

Which helps generally with any game's stability if you experience random crashing etc. As far as the long loading screen, I believe that is server related since I used to have the same issue and always got back a "Code:XXX" error, and it fixed itself within the same day. But I have no way to test that now. While on that black loading screen you can tab out and do this:

1. Right-click your network connection at the bottom right of the task bar

2. Click Open network and internet settings

3. Click change adapter options

4. On the next screen you should see your connection saying "Ethernet X"

5. Right click your "Ethernet X" connection and click disable.

After you go back in-game you should be booted back to the title screen

6. Re-enable your Ethernet connection from where you disabled it and then continue back in the game.

See if that helps.
