Apex Legends players have been facing server issues for the past few weeks. These server issues seem to have started after the launch of the Apex Legends Evolution Collection Event. Players were facing tons of issues including connection timeouts and the inability to enter the game.
Respawn Entertainment released a patch update in an attempt to resolve the ongoing server issues in Apex Legends. Prior to this, the devs have been actively participating in and monitoring discussions that take place in forums like Reddit to improve the game.
Apex Legends 1.81 update details
Apex Legends players were facing a lot of problems even before they could enter into a match. Most players couldn’t even log in and enter the game, while some faced slow-mo server issues as well.
Respawn Entertainment launched patch 1.81 as a patch update to fix the ongoing problems. The hotfix was an attempt to improve the stability issues, lag and connection to server issues that players were facing.
Aside from server issues, Rampart players could replenish Sheila ammo by meleeing opponents. A lot of players in Apex Legends were abusing this glitch which put others at a disadvantage. This update also aims to fix the error that occurs when players open their map in Arenas game mode.
It seems that the Apex Legends devs have fixed these issues with the launch of Update 1.81.
