Whatever was in the brief patch that came out yesterday Arenas mode seemed okay performance wise but having played several Arenas matches this evening has made me finally quit season 9 in disgust.Whilst initially seeing that my Regional Center (London) ping at 18ms before playing my first game actually playing the game was something else constant ping fluctuating up to 450ms+ with my character freezing on the screen for over 5 seconds.When I got killed looking through both my teammates screens they too were both experiencing the high ping & character freezing problem I had.The second game I experienced the the same problem but my character was experiencing screen freezing & screen tears were I'd glide through several objects as soon as the second game finished I closed the game & restarted it & the lowest Data Center ping setting was London at 618ms.In all my time playing video games (30 years) I've never encountered a game with so many bugs an seemingly un-fixable issues as I have with Apex.Heck even the bug-infested game Cyberpunk 2077 looks like a masterpiece compared to Apex now.
lets puts some hope in S10 only 6 days or 5, lets see if they fix the usage or that problem, i play from Brazil in the NY server with 150ms, this type of problems i never got before like you're experiencing must be a shi.......

Lol i never had a game that has issues like these, this is the first time i experienced it with the dev not giving a fix over a month, wow Respawn.

Hey guys try this : go to NVIDIA control panel -> adjust image settings -> prefer maximum performance over quality. Still doesn't fix the 100% gpu thing but helps with the stutters.

Community managers are now spreading their 1-month-old Trello about 'investigating high usage reports' as if they're doing something while a larger amount of people run into high usage with every new update.

Search "Apex CPU" on Twitter and get through the most recent posts. Hundreds of Japanese players talking about the 100% issue lol.

The stutter still persists. What an effed up game. The game was fine until the thrillseeker event. It made everything worse, especially in BR. Arena is kinda playable. But I don't like arenas. I want to play without stutters.

Honestly, do they really even acknowledge this 100% CPU usage bug? I've seen the trello tracker, but it hasn't been changed since when it was added on July 9th.
And it seems like its not just a tiny minority of players that are experiencing this bug. I haven't seen any updates about the issue, unless I just haven't been looking in the right places.. Anyway, does anyone have any new/recent information from devs about the bug?

They don't seem to care. My optimistic guess is that they're keeping it under the radar to fix it on season 10 and don't get more bad attention from media saying they're frying CPUs after the recent hack/servers problems. But they might just not care at all and will just leave this as it is. At least they'll lose Japanese revenue cause man they're flooding Twitter about this bug.

The old Trello tracker seems to be nothing more than a 'sweep it under the carpet exercise & just say everything is fine' to trick players into thinking things are getting sorted out when in reality they are not.There seems to be more 'investigations' being done in the game than at the FBI.But hey ho only 2 days left to sort all the problems/issues for the start of Season 10, but then again I won't be holding my breath for that.
I tested out a few games in BR Trios just to see what the various new buffs & nerfs to characters & weapons & whilst the servers seemed to hold up reasonably well the matchmaking was an absolute disgrace ie more Predators Teams,more laser aim-bots than ever (the sort of player who don't miss a shot from over 150 metres through the eye of a needle) I'm at Level 400 with two of my highest main kill count characters a little over 2000 each but every match I seemed to be constantly pitted against opponents with over 30,000 kills each.Mark my words if the bad servers don't see players dropping the game like flies in Season 10 then the *-poor matchmaking will.

can confirm this one. pretty sure this is part of the reason why tokyo server (the main one, not the GCEs) which was always crowded before is now struggling to get a lobby with full 60. the other reasons are probably blatant hackers on gold to diamond and servers that crash at least once a week.

Yeah, i thought that too but who am i to know.

I honestly hope it isn't the case that they just don't care about it. I've seen English users on twitter as well as the many Japanese users talking about the issue on twitter, and the responses of the EA help twitter just seems like that most of them don't know about the issue. I've seen maybe 1 EA help person saying it's a known issue and gave the person workarounds, whilst many other replies have literally just been giving the most obvious "solutions", such as making sure video settings are at the lowest possible.
It does feel like it's affecting more Japanese users though, unless they're just more vocal about it on twitter. I wonder if there's any consistencies in PC specs from people who are affected?
- 4 years ago@ttkttx yeah i was trying to understand that, if there was some specs that got the problem like "all i5-7400 " something like that, but isn't everyone that puts his/her pc specs in the comment ahahahhaha but maybe this is a start knowledge to respawn ... they should pass a vote link with some CPUs so they can track the specs with problem.... or this is a random problem that came to some PCs when the genesis came out....

this is pretty bad, because i was having this problem in the Origin App, so i came to steam and the game was fixed, i've played like 6 days, then the thrillseekers event came out, in that day the cpu usage on STEAM, got fu***d too.... it's strange this happening .....

Some much needed publicity on Dexerto.com website on what we've all been calling for in season 10.

please tell me why I have stuttering in this game, I have 144hz monitor rtx 2070 ryzen 5 3600 16gb ram 3200mhz game in season 6 ran smoothly using riva tuner and fps unlocking, as of season 7 I have a problem with this game, I don't have frame spikes, I don't have 100% CPU usage but I have * stuttering, the fps are constant, every other game runs smoothly, I only have a problem with this game, does anyone know the answer to this question? I would be very grateful
- 4 years ago@Redmattgame Finally someone talking this in midia, i feel bad and frustrated that any youtuber has talked nothing about that, i tagged a lot of people in twitter but no one make a little short comment about it in their videos, to call Respawn responsability....

Let's just hope there's a fix. I can't believe I still have Apex coins and didn't spend it because of this 100% CPU bug.
Japan we need you
- 4 years ago@EL-Lucky_Loco Gaming sites such as IGN,Eurogamer,Metrotechgames etc have often mentioned about performance/server issues in the game over the past few months.Youtuber's such as JMeyels,Thordan Smash, KijannaPlays (& others) have pretty much been consistant in mentioning the very same issues as well.Some Youtubers do mention that they are often in discussion with game devs & insiders who work on the game.
Fingers crossed for season 10 tomorrow though. - 4 years ago
