Respawn Entertainment has been incrementally improving their battle royale since its February 4 launch, but there are still mounting bugs and glitches that the developers need to iron out. Players have encountered bizarre bugs throughout the game\u2019s short lifespan so far. While some glitches are hilarious to find others can cause major imbalances in matches which should be high on the priority list for Respawn to patch out. Lag, rinse, repeat In a Reddit post, user \u2018Buczz\u2019 showed off their match where a series of connection issues left them in the air for an \u201ceternity\u201d during their drop with no signs of ever coming down. After finally making landfall, they went into the nearest door to start looting, but was caught in a loop that made them relive the moment over and over and over and\u2026 Set to the tune of John Denver\u2019s \u2018Take Me Home, Country Roads,\u2019 the player experienced what they called \u201cGroundhog Day Bug\u201d in reference to the movie in which Bill Murray\u2019s character is trapped in a time loop to relive the same day. The hilarity ensues at the tail-end of the video when it seems like the player has given up on looting all together and just wants to move away from their spot in the balcony. Unfortunately, their connection to the game\u2019s servers just wouldn\u2019t allow that to happen, seeing as Buczz even dropped down just to look back up their balcony \u2013 before they were taken right back to the place they started. While this glitch certainly qualifies as something Respawn needs to address, it could be hard to straighten out since it might have to do with the game\u2019s temperamental netcode. Since the game\u2019s release, players from all over \u2013 even with consistent, reliable internet \u2013 have had atrocious experiences when dropping into the Apex Games. With tons of players dropping into the game with every passing event, Respawn might look to address these problems soon to avoid future connection issues like this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Terrible Apex Legends lag results in frustrating \u201cGroundhog Day\u201d bug Apex Legends can sometimes have terrible connection issues among players, but it got so bad a player was forced to relive the beginning moments of a game multiple times.
