Apex Legends players furious with \u201cunplayable\u201d lag \u201cruining\u201d Season 20 Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends players are claiming the battle royale is currently \u201cunplayable\u201d as lag issues are \u201cruining\u201d the game following Season 20\u2019s release. Apex Legends Season 20 launched on February 13, bringing a long-needed breath of fresh air to the battle royale. While there were no major additions, the update was still packed. Legend Upgrades were the biggest addition in the Season 20 patch, but they came with an overhaul to the Ranked system, the long-awaited 120fps next-gen console upgrade, and a ton of Legend tweaks. Season 20 of Apex Legends is, in many ways, a very different game. But, nevertheless, players are lashing out with their frustrations, calling the game \u201cunplayable\u201d due to the connection issues that have emerged since Season 20\u2019s release. Apex Legends lag issues are \u201cruining\u201d Season 20 In a Reddit post on February 18, an Apex Legends player claimed the battle royale is \u201cruined\u201d as they\u2019ve encountered some of the \u201cworst lag they\u2019ve experienced\u201d in any game since the update. \u201cI started playing Apex halfway through ignite so this is my first season start. Is this normal? The lag is the worst lag I\u2019ve experienced in a game and it\u2019s every game except when I play Mixtape,\u201d they explained. The player added: \u201cLast match I played I started getting shot at and turned to run through a door. The lag then jumped me backwards as if Spiderman himself has slingshot me. It was so ridiculous I just burst out laughing.\u201d In the replies, others explained their own experiences, with some claiming Apex has become \u201cunplayable\u201d as a result of the networking issues in the game. \u201cI have had bad lags every other day and it\u2019s unplayable,\u201d said one. \u201cI\u2019m having high ping on SG servers since last season. I used to get 20ms but now it\u2019s 200ms. Sh*ts infuriating,\u201d wrote another. \u201cYeah my game will freeze basically for 5 seconds once or twice every match. Got me killed a few times lol. Never happened before the update,\u201d one player explained. A bunch of small posts have popped up on the subreddit, making it clear many players are having this issue. And, while it could be the fault of the players\u2019 internet in some cases, the sheer quantity of users hitting out at the game\u2019s servers make it likely something else is going on here. For now, we\u2019ll just have to cross our fingers and see if the devs find whatever\u2019s causing the issue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
