Servers Latency Has Increased On Average 30-40MS - What Happened?

Hello EA,

I hope someone from EA will see this.

I'm starting to see some of the West Coast servers, as well as Salt Lake with an increase in latency, that I've never seen before in Apex.

This just started in the past 4-5 days, with recent latency increases on all the west coast servers, some servers have increased as high as 40MS.

I use to always play on Salt Lake around 79ms, now it has gone up to as high as 112ms.

What happended to Salt Lake? Since it's been around as a server I've been playing on it and I've never had high pings on it till just this past week.

There is nothing wrong with my system, I have not touched anything, and I've been playing Apex since the beginning. It's clear that there are server/network issues, and I hope EA is going to get it back to where it was at.

I'm a person that pays to have a 1GB connection so I can play this game and the connection is not cheap, and then I have to play with pings like this, really sad for the amount of money I spend. I hope you will all constantly keep this in the back of your minds. I also buy games from EA, even though Apex is free, you have to also consider there are many people that buy and support EA through other games.

This game is not fun to play on 90ms pings, I hope this is going to be resolved soon.

Please see the attached screen shot.

Thanks

  • @xpl0its I hate to the bearer of bad news but this is entirely server sided and it's not getting resolved ever. In season 3 I used to play on Salt Lake City with 23ms of ping and now Salt Lake City had upwards of 50. I never got an explanation either
  • Same...it was always 32-38 for me and its jumped to 68-72 as of a few days ago. Oregon also went up about 15ms for me. Im in LA and they don't seem to care about the west coast. Sadge.

    It’s my understanding Switch just came online, maybe this is the reason for the increase in latency.

    Gamers I’m playing with across different areas of the USA have also noticed this, it’s not me, something recently has changed for the worse.

    hmm
