It's normal bro. It's called memory leaked and it happens in every game i played, haiz from battlefield, call of duty to pubg.
The longer u play, the more memory the game eats and never release

i can play with no problem despite fps drops from 70-40 with 8GB RAM, something must be wrong with your PC, maybe a virus or unused software

Nothing is wrong actually. Try this:

 

- Start the game, run "resmon" , then Memory Tab, take note of the total memory usage

- Play 5-10 games of Apex

- Run "resmon" again, check the memory usage for Apex again.

// some c++

size_t size(0);
double *temp_ptr(nullptr);

cout << "how many temps? ";
cin >> size;

temp_ptr = new double[size];

cout << temp_ptr << endl;

// incorrect; creating a memory leak
temp_ptr = nullptr;

delete [] temp_ptr;

// correct; creating a memory leak

delete [] temp_ptr;
temp_ptr = nullptr;

 

 

// so if you have a memory leak, use (delete[] name_of_variable) before (name_of_variable = nullptr).

i had a logical bug in my previous reply, so i fixed the code. its how to fix memory leaks from incorrectly using the heap.

Normal? It's more a question of bad programming, mainly on Windows.

I nvr said it's good programming. My point is: it's normal situation that happened in many games nowadays.

 

Traffic is pretty bad in my city. Traffic jam everywhere everyday, it's not a good thing but i'd say it's normal in my city. I think You got the point.
