Summarize your bug Origin overlay (Shift + F1) is active even when fully disabled in OriginSettings. There is no "casual" way to disable it. If disabled by not loading/deleting the .dll inside of origin the game runs much smoother. This has to be fixed, I use a beefy mashine but can tell the differnece, two friends reported much better frametime stability und less laggy gameplay, too. Please reproduce this and apply thiis easy fix. I bet the overlay is active for every PC Player even when we were sure to have it diabled for performance reasons. Nobody has to be forced to use a overlay. On some configurations overlays have a massive impact.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Disable the Overlay in Origins main settings and Origins game settings. Open the game, press Shift + F1. See the now visable Origin overlay that keept waiting for key inputs since we installed the game.
What happens when the bug occurs? Worse perfomance compared to no overlay.
What should be happening instead? Overlay should be not loaded in game if we disable it.
