Neither me nor my friends had that issue. What have you been doing so far to fix it? I'm not that good with tech but perhaps I can help somehow,

i reinstalled driver, i reset the pc, i wonder if the card just randomly started to die its only a year old, you know whats weird, in training i dont get that problem the fps stays at 144, but when you enter a match it goes down severly to 60-80s

I'm having the same problem but it's not bothering me too much since it's always above 60s, kinda sucks tho

New Radeon drivers are buggy, if you have an AMD card, roll the latest driver update back. With Geforce I cannot help.

It's probably just Apex's optimization and servers. I've had really good frames and then the next day or week everything feels choppy again. See if you notice these fps drops in other games to confirm it's your card's issue

He's not talking about the 60 fps, he is talking about how it randomly dropped, although still at 60 fps it is indeed peculiar to see such a drop with just an update

it might be the waterfall thing in Olympus since or maybe his settings reset so it be more gpu load

I got the point of the post
It fits the meme too perfectly
"pc gamers when they only get 200 fps"

As unfortunate as this is, it's really not surprising tbh. Respawn isn't the greatest at optimizing their games well.

fps tends to drop when your in the drop ship and should go up after you land if not go into nvidea set and cap it at 100 that will keep it up but your fans might be louder depending on what setup you got

[racist]

yea same problem

I think the issue also is that if you're rocking a 144hz or higher gaming monitor, dropping to 60fps from 144 is very noticeable and doesn't look like actual "60fps". In many cases the motion blur seems a bit more like 30fps.

Over a week ago, I was getting really nice 144fps movement motion while playing Apex. But just recently, it began to look like I was playing with a 60hz monitor again.

The other weird thing I noticed, was that sometimes when I get turned into a box and spec either my next team mate or killer, the 144fps movement motion looks super smooth again. Like liquid smooth. No motion blur at all. But it depends on who I'm spectating. Makes me wonder if it's dependent on someone's PC and their internet connection with the server.... I have no idea. It's weird.

So I chalk this up to "just a thing with Apex". Both my CPU and GPU aren't even being fully utilized.

I can also confirm, that the buttery smooth fps is intact in the firing range, most likely because I'm the only one in it, rather than with a bunch of players from different parts of the world.
