I've been playing the game on my PC since launch and, though there were some hiccups at the start, after the first major update things were well optimized and the game ran fine. However, after the ...

@Dissidian84 couse the horrible quality of the vid i can only see that you BW out is super low, are you streaming while gaming? if so cap your stream software bitrate output. As it shows that you cant send out more data that the game needs.
No I'm not streaming anything. I even did a cleanboot and still the same issue.
As I've mentioned, the game ran fine before the season 3 update. Now suddenly the game has frequent packet losses and the CPU shoots up to 100% usage. This is definitely not a problem from our side but from EA's side.
I don't know much about how Networking or this Game Functions internally, but I can assume the reason there is such lag is because the game has just been released onto Xbox Gamepass Ultimate, resulting in more players playing the game. The servers were likely not prepared for this many players, just like when the game was in Beta with the Netcode Lag with a full server.
- @Edwardplayz19 I initially thought that. But when my wife's PC ran it fine, I wasn't so sure.
It can be all kind of issues!
Network, do ya use adsl , broadband or fiber ? Via a VPN maybe ????
Any other devices at same network ?
Some background software running who use network ? Windows update , a torrent downloader ? ect ect
Anti virus busy in the background or optimizing tools ? Streaming software ?
Use a tool to make sure you set CPU cores as reserverd for Game and System to !
Latest system drivers installed ? Latest GPU driver installed ?
Make sure your fans and cool block from CPU / GPU / PSU are clean , so they dont block cooling from your system(new patch uses CPU a lot more, so more heat <-- could throttle down your cpu or even gpu)
henche everything get hot without a good cooling / airflow !!!!!
With a "low end" cpu you need less resources to run , check for:POWER PLAN ULTIMATE
How to disable unneeded services
Ingame max FPS settings
Nvidia/AMD gpu windows settings
Bios XMP/DOCP settings !google for it !
Disconnect all unneeded hardware (only 1 mouse , 1 keyboard, 1 headset should be connected ->>> no game controlles, no usb drives, no cameras , no dac, ect ect ect)
Always try a cleanboot to make sure no other software is running in the background !!! test game with a WIRED connection
Post always a dxdiag so people can check and investigate if there is any issues (old drivers / software issues ect ect ect)
Cheers !
