Season 6 apex Legends servers packet loss lag

So like ... We are basically beta testing season 6 and I payed for the battle pass today. And haven't even been able to play.. Am I getting paid to test this game for y'all? Cause it needs work. . . lemme know EA I'd like to get paid if I'm gonna test your games. Oh yeah and how about you could hook me up with heirloom shards since I'm level 500, had the battle passes since season 3 and havnt gotten any yet!!!?! Love seeing these low level people with 2 heirlooms already when I bust my butt to try to get "lucky" that would make up for this bs release. I know you guys work hard AF. So I'm not throwing shade

  • Im sure there is thousands of ppl with this issue, but everyone is used to it like its normal. Its like WTF since season 2 packet loss every 3rd game....ranked servers are even worse....the only thing sometime help when you leave game and reconnect...but when you will try to reconnect, it takes 7 tries until it gets you in (about 6 minutes, so you need to find a good spot for it :D) Port Forwarding helped for second half of season 4, new patch and it started again. Its 100% their * servers fault (my download speed is over 70 MB/s)... Im playing every Battlepass since preseason :D dont know why, I should honestly stop playn this game. And the fun part, when I check all servers after starting the game there is 0% packet loss on every single one, but when I start the game beautiful Squares shows up <><><>

  • In our CZECH and Slovakia discord/facebook comunity we have minimum 20 people with this problem !!!!! EA or RESPAWN why is it still not fixed?????????before season 6, some people had similar problems. This problem is not only in season 6 !!!! It was here before in season 4,5,6 ...........

    btw i dont have problems in game(THX GOD), but I know people who have this problem.

  • Same here!

    I play since day 1 and season 6 is the first time i get huge packet loss. Its mostly during peak times i guess.. I play on Frankfurt 2 with a ping of 8ms, when i experience packet loss i switch to New York , i wont have packet loss there but i have Lag and i ping of 100ms. Unfortunately i bought the battle pass. Hope it gets fixed soon!

  • Hi Guys,

    DewVPN helped me- you can set it just for Apex, origin.

    I think its problem with Telecom-EA servers

    Try to find out if there is Telecom behind your ISP providers, if it is- change them asap, I will do it too

  • I got the same issue as I see with many others. I try play solo rank but I'm stuck in gold because for every one good game I play and get 60 to 200 RP, I am plagued afterwards with games that have terrible packet loss and prediction errors and shoddy coms. I have to play on London servers because that's the best ping I'm gonna get at 175+ ms.. and I have to constantly restart the game reset my entire network and fight with login to finally get a game where the packet loss. 

    P.S Your reconnect feature is non existent. I thought that maybe if I reset my router mid game I could come back to reconnect to the game I was in to continue playing. instead I got a 10min penalty for abandoning the game, "because going AFK or abandoning the game ruins other players experiences." 

    Riiiiiight, and me being there glitching all over the place being unable to shoot enemies as all I see is their "ghosts", or my shots just not registering is so much better for my team mates experiences. 

    All that happens when I try log back in is I get either a "server full" error or various Code errors like leaf and cloud.. So thanks for that great reconnect feature. I would love to see how this gets improved once crossplay gets released... That's going to go just splendidly.
