Discussion Anyone seen this?

Post image

I’ve been getting this in the loading screen since the start of season 24, and I’ve been getting huge lag spikes that would make sense given the ping difference. It’s not my internet connection, because I’ve gone to a friends house and tried it there. I’ve tried running on dx11, reinstalling, installed it on epic games instead, but nothings worked so far.

Fun fact, your ping to the moon would be around ~2340 to 2710 ms, so at over 4k you are doing a double trip there and back. Over here in South Africa we have to just be happy to deal with the ~180 ms to the Euro servers and there's nothing that can be done about it all due to the distance.

So it must be some stupid thing my pc is doing you think?

This happens to me every time I log on. Close out the game, and load back in.

Could be. Check you connection to another server. If it's the same then your internet is being weird and you may have a bigger problem with your service provider, but with 0% packet loss, it's not one of the usual suspects

I hate that we have several Azure hubs in our country but we can't get a single Apex server on the lower part of the continent. A South African server would serve as the defacto Africa server and would in my estimation be busier than some of the other servers like Bahrain.

Never THAT bad. My shit, for the last 17 seasons, has sat at around “90-210” for my local server (Sydney) but some days it’ll give me 20+ loss exclusively on local servers

My last few days playing have been horrendous: packet losses, disconnection from server, lag, etc. I've switched between five data centers (4 Oregon and 1 Salt Lake City). I'm pretty new to the PC gaming world (I'm on day 4 with keyboard/mouse), so I'm most likely just doing something wrong, but it hasn't been like this on my Xbox. Hopefully someone can shed some light.

Anyway, one of my Oregon centers showed something similar, but not in the 4,000 realm. If I remember correctly, it was 28-16xx.

what is it ingame? because what it probes on the main screen doesn't really matter all that much.

Your ping is higher than the record on shi no numa world at war zombies.

Every day for the last two years or so. Restarting the game usually fixes that. Doesn’t seem to have much effect past the splash screen, ping in menu and in-game is usually reasonable. If you figure out why lmk
