100% CPU Usage after Genesis update
HI!
I apologize for the message using machine translation, I don't know English well.
The problem is 100% CPU usage during the game, my loading after clicking on the title screen (black screen with the Apex sign) loaded the processor at 100% and did not load further in the menu.
The tips that I read earlier did not work at least for me and my friend who has an almost similar computer configuration.
RAM - 16 GB, i5 9500, RTX 2060.
I discovered the load since the "Genesis" update, despite the fact that I had not observed anything like this before, everything worked stably.
Next, the black screen turned out to pass by changing the buffering to adaptive (with half the frequency) in the graphics settings. I had to do it through changing the config file, because the game does not allow you to open the settings from the main screen.
According to the points, I tried:
1. Change the graphics settings, including trying to set adaptive buffering (half the frequency) on the advice.
2. I tried-numworkerthreads 4.
3. I tried to disable Windows Defender (real-time protection, etc.).
4.I tried repairing game files, reinstalling, including downloading and in EA Desktop, Origin and Steam versions.
5. The drivers on the video card are up-to-date.
6. The launch from the administrator also did not work.

Your task list (https://trello.com/c/4L0d1Ol3/62-pc-game-hangs-with-100-cpu-usage)indicates that the ticket "PC game hangs with 100% CPU usage" has been solved, but there have been a lot of reports about such problems on the Internet lately.
I repeat, everything worked fine before Genesis.
Please still roll back the changes or fix the problem, because I did not succeed.
P.S. I love spending time in your game, it will be sad if you can't figure out the problem and help.
