BF2042 CPU Running At 100% Constantly For No Reason

Everything typed below this was a KNOWN issue with the Closed AND Open BETA, and it is still here, with the Early Access to the Full Game.

Game is maxing out my CPU at 100%, and my CPU ain't cheap. Meanwhile, my 1070 is only at 10% usage. So it's not balancing between CPU and GPU correctly, and I dove through all the settings for twice as long as I actually played the game, hoping to find a simple fix without any progress. I'm running at mid 40s - 62 FPS tops, and it doesn't change at all, regardless of me setting graphics settings to Low OR Ultra. And CPU is at 100% even with me NOT streaming, and having Spotify AND Discord killed. So there is definitely some sort of issue here.

One of the previous Madden games would max my CPU at 100% as well, and when I turned off VOIP and some other setting that has NOTHING to do with performance, it stopped doing so. So MAYBE it's some dumb * like that again (both are EA games), or the game needs some sort of optimization balance, because there is absolutely no reason for my Graphics Card to be CHILLING at 10% usage while my CPU, which is a higher end piece of equipment than my GPU, is actually just killing itself.

If I could get 50-60 FPS and NOT have my CPU maxed out, I'd be fine with it. It's the fact that my GPU is barely being used while this game is overloading my CPU for no reason.

i7-7700k Kaby Lake (4.2 GhZ Base Clock) with a ASUS ROG STRIX 1070-OC-8GB along with 32-GB of RAM (This setup runs every other game I play just fine. Including games that are very heavy on your hardware, like Escape From Tarkov, ARMA with a ton of Mods, DayZ with a ton of Mods, Minecraft with a * ton of Mods, Battlefield 1 and V, and the list goes on.

Plus I can stream AND record these games at the same time and still not even be close to having my CPU at 100%. Yet this game is at 100% CPU with no recording or streaming happening, no Discord, no Spotify, nothing. And again, my GPU is CHILLING at 10-15%.
