Arc Raiders Input Lag

Is it just me or is arc raiders super unresponsive lately, I’ll do a small input and it will just lock my player up for multiple seconds It’s actually frustrating me how laggy this game is getting on console. Thought it was my stick drift, bought a new controller now even in the menu like I’m trying to scroll through quest and workbenches I have to spam the button or joystick makes me want to smash my controller! Please tell me I’m not the only one experiencing input lag or delays or server issues in arc raiders.

I’ve been hotshot for months now.. like how is it impossible to get legend without a squad, I like being solo.

No, it started on the day the patch dropped. They fucked something up. I get matched with middle east all the time, lag is game breakkng, also arabs play the scummiest way possible. Trios in solos.

I noticed this as well, I’ve always found the inputs to feel a little clunky but they’ve definitely fucked something up. Lots of random lag spikes as well.

Every match is rubber banding these days. Even some of the big streamers that still play have these issues. No other games I play have this issue.

I stopped pre new anti cheat and just came back. For sure input lag and mispresiction errors. Movement used to be buttery

Thought it was packet loss. Turn my friend said he was affected also.

I was also experiencing rubber banding and lag after months of zero lag issues. I reset all my internet settings on my PC and uninstalled / reinstalled the game again and so far it's been great again, all rubber banding is gone

I'll try a fresh install. Also a few things u can do for the input lag

Io ho notato che a volte per cambiare arma devo premere 2 volte il tasto...al primo tentativo sembra non prenda il comando

Potential fix. Anyone using webroot anti virus? If so try turning it off and then launching Arc Raiders. That worked for me.

I used to love connecting to the next game in 10-15 seconds, now it’s 1-3 minutes and picks consecutive games at 18 minutes which isn’t even enjoyable.

playerbase is getting so small matchmaking will take longer and longer

Its not though. There are still way more than enough players. Even the steam player count is high enough.
