I'm getting insanely high packet loss on all servers just like many others. I never saw such high packet loss numbers before legendary hunt update.
Check out the screenshots. Ignore latency because that's normal for me. My problem is with packet loss which gave me very bad feeling in my stomach just looking at the lag last time I played the game for 2 min. I almost spewed. I just checked right now and it's still there.

I have been using netlimiter 4 to check what server I am connecting to and since the game came out selecting data centers has done nothing. It will put me into matches all over the world and I am in Australia. I even played on EU servers at 500+ ping.
Another question. Why are you even allowing people to select data centers outside their own region? Does it really make sense that someone in Hungary should be able to select Sydney Australia Data center?
I am thinking your logic with data centers is all wrong.
edit: also put an in-game ping into the game so we don't have to use sites like https://gameserverping.com/

@EA_David My game used to run at 80 fps consistently. but now after the two updates it runs around 40fps in areas like skull town, market, etc. In the past I tweaked my config files to remove shadows which gave me a crazy good fps boost. but now shadows remain. I wont ask about future plans, but Do you believe turning off shadows gives players a competitive advantage and is why the config was removed?

@EA_David Hey. I live in Moscow (Russia). My provider is called 2kom.ru, my Internet speed is 95/94 Mb / s. I turned to my provider for help, they said there was no problem on their part. In almost every game of apex legends, I have high ping and lags, and my friends who live in Moscow are also fine and have ping 40-60, when I have from 90 to 120. There are no problems with ping in Battlefield 5, always stable 40-50 . Please help me, why in apex legends I have such a high ping, why do they give me such bad routes to me?

Hi David,
Experiencing severe packet loss over all servers on PC (EU, US, UK servers) - all other games play fine (Overwatch, LoL, Assorted Steam games), and Apex used to play absolutely fine until the last update.
Here's a youtube video showing one typical drop for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqgrW-3idkg&feature=youtu.be
The packet loss network error symbol typically appears around the time of leaving the ship, and is consistently present through all game play (the game is absolutely unplayable in this state - which is unfair for the team when i'm testing the connection). It appears to be so bad I actually can't even exit the game through the menu (Esc > Leave Game) and have to terminate the program manually.
As shown in the attached UOTrace, 0% packet loss over all addresses, attached DXDiag shows PC info. Attached Image shows my default server is London (as expected as i'm ~50 miles from London) and it appears to ping all local servers in a reasonable time with no packet loss.
I previously have had some degree of success connecting to Amsterdam over London, but no longer.
I hope this helps - any updates/advice on getting this fixed would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I've not really experienced any players from other reigons in my games. Seems to be assigning my region properly.
Cheers

I reside in EUW.
While you're at it, ask why are some people unable to claim Legendary Hunt rewards.
