The server is crashing APEX LEGENDS

My game keeps crashing due to server issues during ranked matches, and I just lost 126 points. When I try to reconnect, it doesn't work because the game thinks I quit voluntarily, and then it hits me with a 10-minute penalty. This isn't the first time this has happened.

Are the developers aware of this? 

Sometimes I can still chat with teammates in game, but nobody can play it, since lag ate the game.

    Hi 1000rr_trc-20​,

    I’m sorry to hear this happened, especially during Ranked. I understand how frustrating it is to lose RP and receive an abandon penalty when you were trying to reconnect.

    We’re not able to manually adjust RP or remove penalties through the forums, but I can pass along reports like this when we see them. To help us understand what happened, could you share a few more details?

    • Platform:
    • Region or server used:
    • Approximate time and date of the match:
    • Any error code shown:
    • Whether this happened to your whole squad or only you:
    • Your EA ID:

    You can also check the EA server status page here. For lag, packet loss, or disconnect issues, this article may also be useful.

    I know this is really frustrating, especially when it affects Ranked matches. Thanks for reporting it, and I hope we can get a clearer picture of what is causing these disconnects.
