I've ben playing this game since 2016. Never had any issue with performance whatsoever until the anti-cheat update.
It is unplayable now due the stuttering.
In the game I have huge peaks of 'extr offset' every time the game stutters or freezes for a sec (see picture)
There is an old article about 'extr offset' here: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-fix-lag-spikes-and-micro-freezes-battlefield-1
Pay attention to the graph the next time you experience a micro-freeze. If the Extr Offset line spikes during the freeze, you'll know you're suffering from this specific disk usage problem. Disabling non-Microsoft services should clear things up and get you back to smooth gaming.
And guess which service is a in the list of these WIndows services... 'anticheat'.
It is also exactly the same stuttering when playing single player by the way. Even with very low graphics settings.
The anti-cheat is always running and seems to be causing this disk memory leak.
Stopping anti-cheat service kills the game so no option for that.
Come on EA. I only play 1 game, it is my guilty pleasure after work. Don't ruin this please.
Best Regards,

You are very right. I just noticed that. In one point ~~12ms, then suddenly it's 0% GPU and 800ms for "xtra offset".
However, turning off several of "non-essencial" services didnt solve the problem to me. Seems like it got a bit better. But the problem persists.
Yep exactly this . If u purchased it on steam , u r entitled to a refund no matter how many hrs you have played , because they at least believe in good practice for customers. I would urge every 1 consider it . EA are useless we know this , the mods here are not even with EA so they don't know jack and they don't care . Don't expect a fix from EA .
Maybe EA is doing the greedy iphone technic apple doing by making old games unplayable so everyone has to play 2042... 2042 is %92 discount right now but i dont wanna buy that crap EA. We love bf1 EA, get it already!

I wouldn't put it past them . I for one won't pay for any EA trash in future . They are simply useless.
