Having a bad ping isn’t necessarily really bad, as it depends on how far you are from the server you chose to play in. However sometimes it could be due to your internet. Most Apex Legends players have faced the issue of “rubberbanding” in a game and it could be due to one’s internet or it could just be the server is faulty. As most members in the community already know, Apex servers aren’t the best.

To fix the network issues, players must check their internet connection by conducting a speed test. Players can head over to any website like Fast.com to find out their internet speed. If the internet speed is fine, restarting the game could help. However if the game still gives you trouble after this, it is most likely that the server you are on is faulty. As there have been no other fixes introduced by Respawn at the moment all players can do is leave the match or continue playing.

Even though players are getting good ping and everything else seems to be working fine, low frames per second can cause the game to be choppy. Most console players and high end PCs don’t have this problem. However this is a problem faced by people who play the game on mid-end PCs. There are many external as well as internal factors that play a role in FPS of a game. The external factors that affects FPS in a game is refresh rate and graphics drivers. Player must check the refresh rate of their display monitor to match that to the in-game settings and also check if they have the latest graphics drivers installed to their PC.

Moving on to the in-game settings, these are the best for maximizing FPS output:

  • Display Mode: Full Screen
  • Aspect RatioNative
  • Resolution: Native
  • Field of View: personal preference (lower the FOV more the FPS)
  • Sprint View Shake: Minimal
  • V-Sync: Disabled
  • Adaptive Resolution FPS Target: 0 (match to one’s refresh rate)
  • Anti-aliasing: None
  • Texture Streaming Budget: None
  • Texture Filtering: Anisotropic 2x
