5 Common Issues In Free Fire And How To Deal With Them

Free Fire is the most popular battle royale in India currently - it is specifically optimized for low-end devices. While you can definitely run the game on any phone, there would still be problems sometimes - in this article, we would list out the top 5 most common problems that people often get in Free Fire and how to resolve them.

1 - High Ping

Connection issue is probably the most popular problem players often have to deal with. Most of the time, it would be on the player's side, as the connection to Free Fire servers from India's pretty stable. To test the issue, you could try to run the game on other devices that are using the same network - if all devices are slow, the fault lies in your connection.

How to fix

You could try to reset the modem or check if there is someone else who's using the network, as the more people use the internet, the slower it gets.

2 - Lag

This can be part of the connection issue... however, if your ping is high, the lag could be caused by something else entirely.

How to fix

If your device is overheating, you should stop playing until it cools down. You could also try to set all graphic settings to lowest to reduce tax on your system.

Sometimes the device would display an error message after trying to download a pack or game data for a certain amount of time. This might be caused by bugs or low storage.

How to fix
