I've stuttering issues since July I think. (Maybe the genesis update, but i can't confirm).
It happens the most when the game starts (both BR and arenas). BR : In the ship or after the jump. In Arenas : During the countdown. But it can happen after too ....
It's a big quick FPS drop, 144 to 80 for exemple and less than 1 second.
My PC :
AMD 5900X
3080 Ti FE
32 Gb @ 3600 Mhz
WD Black 1 Tb

@Fasty07 Is that WD Black 1TB the SSD or old school spinning/mechanical disk? If you go back a page and read my post in the disk usage section, you'll see that Apex now loads the entire data off hard disk at start (around 5GB-6GB). On and SSD, that takes about a minute, so isn't a huge deal since it takes that long to get in your first match. On spinning disk, that will take 4-5 minutes, so it will affect your first match or more. Every time the game decides to read a lot of data from the drive, it will take really long for non-SSD PCs.
- 4 years ago@lPumpsDadl It's the SSD, nvme.
I tried to check my disk activity during the drop, but i don't think the disk is guilty.... - 4 years ago@Fasty07 You'll be fine then. On SSD or PCIe (NVMe), the game finishes loading about 1 minute after opening the game. By the time you get a server for your first match, it has been more than 1 minute. I feel sorry for people on spinning disks (mechanical).
