Server issues stuttering/lag

Am experiencing really bad stuttering when I play apex and it's making the game unplayable because the games keeps stuttering every 5 seconds and I've check my WiFi speeds and tired out other game's to see if my WiFi was causing this issue but everything works fine on other game and my WiFi speed is running at 200mbps as well and it's a wired connection too so that makes me think the apex servers need fixing as it only happens when I play apex and nothing eles I've tired to change my server but nothing seems to be working and before the new update came out the game was running smoothly but since 2021 came it was unplayable needs fixing as soon as possible and I play on ps4 as well thanks

  • It doesn't help that their servers have a tick rate of 20hz that's why hit reg is bad and you are getting stutter . It's basically just EA cheating out on the servers an doin EA things,  also never expect it to be a thing they will bother fixing . You just have to deal with it . GG .

  • Hi,

    i used to play Apex using the origin launcher. Due to the massive timeout errors it was unplayable and no character selection was starting - almost each time timeouts at the start of the game. When a game started, it was fine - no timeout during the match and no server issue like stuttering or rubberbanding etc...ping about 30ms. Now i tried on Steam and installed APEX. NO timeout issues any more - i can join games very easily and did not face and error so far - BUT the game itself feels very laggy and i face stuttering and rubberbanding. the latter exspecially at the start of the match. I have like 140-180fps and using steam a ping around 50-60ms....

    So the timeout problem cannot be related to my computer/internet as it works fine with Steam publish - the rubberbanding/stuttering cannot be related to my computer as it does not happen when using the origin/ea launcher....

    PLEASE do something to make APEX playable again and do not force thousands of people trying thing which cannot help the situation as the most obvious reasons seems to be related the code/software/apex/launcher/server and not the client/internet/WLAN/LAN/ISP side....

    I tried on Steam to limit the fps to 144 and with steam in the background running it was even worse (extreme rubberbanding / stuttering with 144fps, no packet loss and 40ms ping) - after closing steam client it seems to be much better - but i only tried in shooting range...

  • im experiancing this as well once every 10 matches or so no ingame symbols show up
