Community ManagerFrom your post @Lucid_Fiasco it sounds to me like you are having network issues. If the issue is only during peak times then this points to an issue that you are going to have to discuss with your ISP.

Hello,
I appreciate the response, but as I stated I have fiber with 200 down / 75 up and no issues playing any other games during these times. It is ONLY Apex Legends. I have done everything I can to eliminate the possibility of a personal network issue, I when I run speed tests they are consistent and do not change during these times.
When I am able to run fortnite and see a stable ping of 17 ms during an entire match but am lagging uncontrollably in Apex, that does not seem like an ISP issue to me.
Sorry if I'm coming off harsh here, it's just very frustrating because this issue is happening primarily between 8-10PM EST which is when I am free to play with my friends.
Also, I would just like to emphasize, the lag / rubberbanding is even present before I actually get into a game lobby. I can see the smoke lagging in the regular party lobby, and also in the actual character selection screen once I do enter a match.
Here is an example of how it looks during character selection, you can see the smoke speeding up and slowing down. Then, when the dropship begins moving, it is clearly rubber banding as well and looks like it is constantly changing speeds.
I'm really at my wits end here, the fact that this issue is occurring before the match even begins is so bizarre. I have opened all my ports per EA's suggestions, etc etc. Yet, from around 8 PM -10 PM, this happens every night and only with this game. Absolutely flawless during other times of day.
