Re: Constant 100% CPU utilization since Season 3 update

Why is it taking the developers this long to undo what they did that caused high cpu usage? Why is this community having to learn how to edit files and drop them in installation folders to prevent their CPU's from melting? A hot patch/update could of been implemented within a few hours. This is obviously a wide spread problem. Sure, we can all figure a work around but at what cost? Are we losing performance, increasing input lag, causing damage to our hardware?

    @AOD_Mikezilla It takes way more than BF2042 to melt a CPU lol. . All CPUs and motherboards have build in protection features.... It however might distinct the quality components from the others 🙂

    @th3m4r1n3 need to check specs of your cpu, some are made to run in high temp values, 90c is not weird, depends on systems and cpu specs !!!

    So just wondering, it’s been 11 days since you guys tweeted saying you were investigating this issue. Any idea of how early in December you plan to release a fix? Already December 6th…

    So was reading the patch notes for update 3.1 tomorrow, didn’t see anything that says it would fix CPU Usage?

    Also, will we have to delete our temporary user cfg file that we have saved for this update to work?

    @RiggletsTTV no need to delete, just move/copy to other location.
    First test the new UPDATE !
    You could always add user.cfg again, maybe it needs new settings !
    Test it and update us !
