Brutal lag spikes since january 8th

★★★★★ Novice

Never had an issue last year, now apex is unbearably laggy. Rebooted everything
Port forwarded
Changed dns
Actually paid to upgrade my internet (even though apex ran fine until january 8th)
Had my ISP tech support monitor my connection and physically come look at my router and internet cables
Hardwired my xbox into router
Absolutley no luck.
When it ran good I was 20-50 ms ping and 1% packet loss
Now I'm 73ms ping and 2% packet loss on the best available server and its un playable. Absolutely brutal lag/hop/freezes 

Hopefully there is a solution. This is a really great game, it would be a shame for something like this to destroy the player base 

I buy the battle passes to show my support for this great free game, but I cant fork out anymore for a slugfest like this.

I've been feeling this too.  Legends shift 4-5 bodies over sometimes on the screen.  My shots are always behind by a lot.

 

I've always had some lag issue with Apex. I am in Seattle connecting to Oregon servers.  I have Xfinity with 250+ Mbps, wired in directly and still lag excessively.  I've killed any process on my computer that consumes any network activity, and still get terrible, unsteady play.

Mine switches between Oregon and Virginia too lol. Very frustrating, cod doesn't lag like this, halo doesnt lag like this, forza doesnt lag like this, rocket league doesnt lag like this. Apex lags like this
