EA anticheat Update - Addressing Stuttering and CPU Issues

Hi everyone,


A new EA anticheat update is now available and addresses instances of significant stuttering for players with certain CPUs.

Thanks everyone for your patience while the team investigated this issue.

The update will be applied when you next launch the game while connected to the internet.

If you are still experiencing performance issues after this update, please use the troubleshooting steps and/or start a new thread in Technical Issues & Bug Reports if the issue is still not resolved so we can investigate further.

F1 TEAM

    Hmmm. A fix that by the last two posts is equally good or evil?

    The issues are in individual setups; unless EA can say specifically what the fix corrected. 

    Anti-cheat is making some legit customers annoyed. Is it really stopping cheats?

    It took a few seconds extra loading to update Anti-cheat, so something changed, but it made no difference here ultimately.

  • since this update my game has constant stuttering both in the menu and in game. I have tried just about everything that i have seen on how to fix it until i found this page where i realized that my game stopped working the second launch after this update.  If there is anything i can do please tell me.
