The 6th Season of Apex Legends has been nothing but successful so far. The Season brought about many exciting features to the game that have managed to win back a section of its lost popularity as one of the best Battle Royale titles out there.
However, since the onset of the season, the game has been plagued by a series of glitches and gameplay issues. Although devs have taken care of most of them, a new issue has been tormenting the game.

As many of the fans may know, the September Soiree event is live now. This event brings back some classic LTMs to the game. However, players faced a weird issue of servers crashing during the Dummies Big Day LTM.
If a player went AFK at the character select screen, the whole server would crash. Devs at Respawn Entertainment posted a tweet yesterday addressing this issue.
We're hitting pause on the party. After DUMMIES Big Day went live, we discovered a bug that caused server crashes if a player AFKed on character select. For the health of the game and our players, we're turning it off and working on a fix with details to come as we have them.
