huge lag and stuttering while playing BFv

hi
I'm playing BFV with my friends and over the past few days my game keep freezing and lagging while in the match. the stuttering remains for a few sec and while its happening FPS drops from 100 to 15 and game takes no input until I stop moving and wait a few sec. this keep happening randomly in different times. might be 10 sec , might be 2 min later.
I tested this in both community and Dice servers. 
I asked around and a lot of my other friends have been experiencing the same problem.
my ping stays the same throughout this experience.
my pc is old (GTX1060 - i7-4970) but well within game requirements and i never had this problem before the recent updates. 
also my other friends with the same problem have very very better computers than me .(RTX-3060 or above) and still having the same problem so I know its not a problem with my PC.
we are all lvl 500 and receive a lot of reports from the lower lvl players. ( i thought that to be the problem maybe)
the only way we have found to fix this problem (sometimes works) is resetting the pc multiple times and trying to get back into the game each time to see if the problem still exist.
pls fix this problem .
thanks

    I think also it might be the anti cheat because the only thing that received an update was that.
    but for me pressing any movement key make this lag.

    Probably connected with Anti-Cheat, there was no problems for years before.

    I found a temporary solution to fix this lag and stutter.
    as everyone thought this lag is caused by anti-cheat javelin.
    the location of this software is :
    C:\Program Files\EA\AC
    for most people if you haven't changed the game installation location.
    1- first exit EA.
    2- then go this address and delete the file "preloader_s.dll".  
    3-then reload the EA app and lunch the game.
    it will automatically install the deleted file again when Splash screen appears but this time it wont lag in the game because its a fresh install.
    I hope this help you all until they fix the software. 
    ** PS: don't worry for getting banned. as i said it will install the software again and you wont have to completely re-install the game again. 
    sadly this solution only works for one login into EA and for your next login you have to do the same again. **
