The Apex Legends servers have been experiencing frequent issues lately, and players are not happy with the current state of the game. Alongside the aforementioned teleporting, packet loss, and lag, players have also been encountering disconnects and errors. The most recent update also seems to have introduced additional bugs relating to certain Legends’ abilities, such as Wattson’s Pylons.
The previous update was supposed to include the hotly-debated tap strafing nerf, but the change was delayed indefinitely due to unexpected side effects. With multiple issues popping up after the last patch, it seems like the tap strafing changes may be put on the backburner while Respawn tries to fix the glitches and server issues. If you’re able to play Apex despite the current issues, then the Evolution Collection Event is currently live in-game with a ton of new cosmetics to earn.
Apex Legends is available now on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
