FYI i figured out how to fix it, verify your game files. i had 22 files fail to validate and redownload and now i dont have the issue.
If anyone finds this and is having the same problem with the anti-cheat, I'm using Windows and EA launcher and I've been running for about 5 hours with no kicks and no failures to load the game, after creating an exception in Windows Defender for Easy Anti-Cheat. I was also getting CPU spikes after a few rounds before I created that exception, and I'm not having that problem anymore either. The launcher, the game and the anti-cheat app are all running as admin.
Battlefield trying really hard to * people off by NOT posting and NOT fixing *. These guys should be fing ashamed.
