Will be any way to play the game without the need of buying a new pc? I can't just swap the processor because of the board...
POPCNT isn't necessary at all to run any game, EA could just remove that restricition, it's just an absurd that people with average computers won't play the game.
There was an update and it finally implemented an error message.
I got: CPU does not have POPCNT!
I run a q8400...thats it, seems like no Apex for us, who run old CPUs.
POPCNT was implemented for Intel CPUs with the first i5/7 processors in 2008 (Nahalem structure).
The wiki article about it (chapter 3.3): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSE4
It´s a bit of a shame, my CPU is from Q2 2009 but it just has the wrong microstructure :/
I bet POPCNT is just needed for the Anti cheat, the game itself dosn´t care at all about it :D

It seems problem is related somehow to the Eady anticheat solution. If I try to launch anticheat software it says it can't load the game.
