For over a month now, PC players for Respawn Entertainment’s\u00a0Apex Legends\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>have rejoiced over having the ability to play the game on Steam. The free-to-play battle royale has seen a swell of players since it became available on the gaming client, with it recently being reported that\u00a0Apex Legends\u00a0<\/em>was touting over 100,000 concurrent players<\/a> in its first week. And while this number is impressive, the experience has been far from perfect for some players.<\/p>\n

In particular, players have noticed that the Steam version of\u00a0Apex Legends<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/em>can sometimes come with a significant amount of input delay. For those that don’t know, input delay is the amount of time between when a player pushes a button or key and when the game responds with the corresponding action. Naturally, those that are playing competitive games like\u00a0Apex Legends\u00a0<\/em>want this delay to be as close to 0 as possible.<\/p>\n

While input delay is incredibly frustrating to deal with, Twitter user @Jxneyy_ has created an easy to follow solution for this problem. After clicking on\u00a0Apex Legends<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>in the Steam Library, players will want to click on the Manage icon. Once there, players will have to scroll down to the Properties option, followed by clicking on Set Launch Options. Players need to then type the following line into the dialog box that pops up: ‘+fps_max’. Following the word ‘max,’ type in the number of frames the monitor is set to. Players can find this in the Advanced\u00a0section of their Display settings if they are unsure.<\/p>\n
