I'm getting the same problem as well. It started with season 3, and I tried taking EA's advice by lowering and raising the graphic settings and it makes no difference to the CPU usage.

      i7-9700k

      RTX3080

      more ram than i'd ever need

      Been experiencing this since first install in S2. I've done everything this thread and previous threads have mentioned as fixes. No success. Can only play Rush due to the CPU constantly maxing out. Every other game runs perfectly fine on highest settings. My hardware is plenty enough to handle this game.
