Why Lagging occurs in Brawlhalla

Source: Brawlhalla


Brawlhalla is a platform game played by millions of players across PC, consoles, and mobile devices. Unfortunately, many players experience lag in this game in the form of delayed inputs, character teleporting, stuttering animations, or sudden frame drops during online play. Lagging in Brawlhalla occurs because of Wi-Fi interference, a high latency or ping due to distance from servers, background bandwidth usage like downloads or streaming, and server overload or maintenance windows. This article is going to explain why lag happens in Brawlhalla, the different types of lag players experience, and practical fixes to help you achieve a stable gameplay.


What is Lag in Brawlhalla


Lag in Brawlhalla can be understood in the three different variations which include Network lag, input delay, and performance lag. Network lag occurs when there is a high ping or unstable communication (network connection) between your device and the game servers, hence causing delayed actions, missed hits, or characters vanishing/teleporting across the screen. Input delay happens when your controller or keyboard actions take longer than expected to reach the game making combos and reactions feel “off”. Performance lag refers to frame drops or stuttering caused by hardware limitations, outdated drivers, or background applications using system resources. Identifying which type of lag you’re experiencing is very important because each has different causes and requires a different solution to fix.


Why Lag Happens in Brawlhalla (Network and Connection Issue)


The most common cause of lag in Brawlhalla is an unstable or inconsistent internet connection. Brawlhalla relies on real time online matches, so a high ping, packet loss, or poor routing between your device and regional servers can result in delayed inputs. The developers themselves have emphasized on how wireless Wi-Fi connections are often responsible for lag, as they are more prone to interference than wired Ethernet connections. Distance from servers, internet congestion, and background bandwidth usage such as downloads or video streaming can also increase the frequency of lag in Brawlhalla. Even if your internet speed is high, instability in network connection can still cause lag because consistency of a network connection matters a lot.


Why Lag Happens in Brawlhalla (Hardware and System Issues)


Hardware and system related issues can cause lag in Brawlhala even if you have a stable internet connection. On PC, outdated GPU drivers, chipset drivers, or network drivers can lead to performance instability which will then result in frame drops, stuttering, or inconsistent animations. Background applications such as active browsers, screen recorders, launchers, or system updates can also consume CPU, RAM, or disk resources, leaving Brawlhalla with less processing power than it needs. Low end or older hardware can also struggle to maintain a steady frame rate especially when there are lots of effects on the screen. On Consoles, and Mobile, lag in Brawlhalla may be caused by thermal throttling, limited memory, or a long uptime in the game without restarting, all of which will reduce performance even when network conditions are ideal.

How to Fix Network Lag in Brawlhalla


1. Connect via Ethernet: If you play Brawlhalla on PC or Console, you should plug an Ethernet cable from your router directly into your device. Wired connections deliver a more stable ping than Wi-Fi.

2. Selecting the Best Server Region: In order to do this, open Brawlhalla then go to Setting -> Network. Look at the listed ping values and choose the lowest number server close to your location

3. Pause Your Background Downloads: Make sure that no apps, games, or videos are downloading. You can pause them and continue after playing Brawlhalla. Also stop video streaming or Cloud backup if you can.

4. Restarting your Router: Restarting your router refreshes your connection and clears temporary routing issues. To do this, unplug your router for 30 seconds and then plug it back in.

5. Test Latency to Brawlhalla Servers: You can search “Brawlhalla Ping Test” or use the official Ping checker found in the games support or network settings. If the ping is consistently high (>80 – 100 milliseconds), you should consider contacting your Internet Service Provider to check routing to game servers.

6. Reduce Wi-Fi Interference: If you must use Wi-Fi, then try to place your device closer to the router for better network connection.


How to Fix Hardware and Performance Lag in Brawlhalla


1. Update Graphic and System Drivers: On NVIDIA, open GeForce Experience -> Drivers –> Check For Updates. On AMD, use Auto-Detect and install from Radeon Software. On Intel, check Intel Driver & Support Assistant. You can also run windows update to make sure your operating system is current.

2. Adjust Brawlhalla Graphic Setting: When you enter Brawlhalla, go to options -> Video/Graphics. Set Display Mode to Fullscreen, lower resolution by one step (for instance going from 1080 -> 900). Turn Shadows/Effects OFF or LOW. You can also disable VSync if you’re experiencing input lag.

3. Close Background Applications: On PC, press Ctrl + Shift + Esc -> Task Manager. Close the apps with high CPU/RAM usage. You can close all, it just depends on you.

4. Set Brawlhalla to High Priority (PC users only): If you’re a PC user, you can set Brawlhalla to high priority. Open Task Manager -> Details. Right-click Brawlhalla.exe -> Set Priority -> High. Your PC will give the game more CPU focus hence leading to less lag.

5. Check Temperature and Ventilation: Brawlhalla performance will decline if your defense overheats leading to lag. Don’t block your vents so hot air can go through. You can also cooling pads for laptops. It’s also good to keep laptops of flat surfaces.

6. Restart your Device before Playsession: You can restart your device before playing the game. A fresh restart will clear memory leaks and background tasks that accumulate over time.


Closure


Lag in Brawlhalla usually comes from unstable internet connection, incorrect server selection, or device performance limits. Fortunately, most of these problems are fixable. By using a stable connection, choosing the right server, lowering the games settings, and keeping your device updated and cool, you can reduce lag in the game. This will ensure you have a smoother gameplay.
