Party Not Ready
- When pressing Ready, the game states Party Not Ready, even when playing alone.
Close and open the game, or enter then leave training mode[citation needed] |
---|
Crash to desktop
- There have been numerous reports of crash to desktop on both Nvidia and AMD GPUs.[5][citation needed]
Downgrading to GPU driver version 417.71 (using DDU) is known to fix the issue[citation needed] |
---|
Upgrading to driver version 419.35 is known to fix the issue[citation needed] |

Device Hung - NVidia RTX errors
- "Device hung" crashes are still not yet fixed by Nvidia/Respawn
Downgrading to NVidia driver version 436.48 stops the error |
---|
Issues fixed
Low FPS/stuttering on Nvidia Optimus platforms
- Some Nvidia drivers might not properly detect Apex Legends as a game and automatically select and make use of the Nvidia discrete GPU to render the game on Nvidia Optimus platforms, instead it will default to using the integrated GPU that resides in the CPU (Intel-based GPU).
Configure the Nvidia display drivers to make use of the high-performance Nvidia graphics card for the game[6] |
