@seyiallentay Thank you for the post, that's very strange indeed. 


Can you try restarting your console from the power menu, and power cycle your router, then check if the issue persists?

Hey! I know this thread was months ago but I have the same problem on PS4. I figured out that it is probably an internet problem. Connecting wirelessly to my router allows for a normal Apex experience, but when I'm wirelessly connected to my router I actually lag in game. So I usually connect to a subrouter that is ethernet connected to my router, essentially giving my PS4 a wireless ethernet connection priority through that subrouter, stronger than a wireless connection. On the subrouter (I've been saying subrouter but I don't know if that is technically what it is called), I have this same problem as the guy above. When I ready up after a game, the level icon does not turn into a "check mark" symbol but I still hear some sound. And if my team ready's up, I don't see the check mark or hear the sound. If someone left or joined the group after the game, it does not update the characters/accounts shown. Same thing happens for me at college when I'm NOT on ethernet connection (my college has some weird system for internet, can't say if I'm connected to a router or 'subrouter' of some kind there). The problem continues and if I'm 'readied up' but have this problem, my team will be put into a game and I will not. That right there is the big reason as to why this is a problem. Some other players might experience this and be unaware as to why this is happening. So the source of the problem seems to have something to do with the internet connection or NAT type maybe.

 

My impromptu solution is to back out of the lobby after every game and join back, which isn't too big of a deal. I can tell my friends to not ready up that way they aren't put into a game while I back out. But if I'm playing with a squad of randoms I invited, they might be confused about why I left or don't know to not ready up so that they are not put into a game without me. Playing solo is a bit easier because I just back out to the main menu after every game. But if I don't back out when playing solo and I 'ready up,' I just sit there in the lobby, never entering a game.

 

If you need more info or think I should post a formal report let me know.
