Connectivity Issues

★★ Novice

Hey I am having a "connectivity" issue... Recently I pre-installed my PC with the newest Windows Version and the first game I downloaded was Apex. For 2 or 3 days there were no problems at what so ever, however, yesterday I started getting the "prediction error (?)" sign as well as some FPS drops. At first, I thought it was the servers causing my game to stutter. I tried changing my server region, patching game files, uninstalling and installing the game again, setting my IP to static and all kinds of other stuff but I still have those kinds of problems. Maybe help?

@HyloonHello This issue comes when the  your pc lack info from the server and there 'prediction' system

Meaning you don't get the info or get to high of package loss to the server.

 

please give me the following info:
1: Verify MS/Ping to the server in game or here: https://gameserverping.com/apex
2: Internet speed
3: What OS / Build do you run?
4: All drivers updated?
5: Any 3rd party software running like Anti-virus, discord etc?
6: do you or any other member in the household watch youtube, streams or downloading while playing?
7: Have you tried to repair the game or clear game cache, Read this to know how: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/clear-cache-to-fix-problems-with-your-games/
8: Have you tried using a public DNS to see if this resolve the issue?

@EzyHawk If you mean Packet Loss... No I don't have any and that's the reason I have no explanation for what I am experiencing.

Well...Done...I see the big difference in the ping times...Does that mean I have to change my ISP?
