Apex Legends major performance issues which are affecting players in-game.
Apex Legends had one of the quickest rises in the history in gaming history as they amounted a player base of over 50 million players within their first month of being released to the public.
This quick rise has not come without its downfalls, however, as the hype is beginning to die down and fans are expecting Respawn to start addressing some of the major issues with the game such as performance issues such as the hit registration issues with characters and lag to keep this game on top.
Lag is an ‘extremely high priority’
In a blog post shared by Respawn on April 25, they confirmed that they were working on a fix for the Apex Legend’s performance issues and listed some of the critical issues they were prioritizing first.
One of the their main concerns was the slow server performance at the beginning of the match which is occurring in many players’ games, Respawn confirmed they were working on a fix for this issue and treating it as “extremely high priority.”
