Troubleshooting

If you’re having trouble with your game, here are a few things you can try.

Packet loss

You’ll see an orange warning for 2-4% packet loss and a red warning once your connection hits 5% or above. Players typically experience packet loss as input lag—keystrokes or button presses that don’t register properly in-game. This means that some of the info coming from you to us is incomplete.Packet loss can happen on wireless connections when there’s interference. If you live in an apartment building it could be a crowded wireless channel or some other interference with your wireless signal.For wired connections, packet loss can sometimes indicate an issue with your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or with another ISP that they partner with to route their internet traffic.Learn more about ways to fix your connection.
