PC - High CPU/Freezing After 1.03 Patch

Question

Ever since the 1.03 patch on PC I've had this problem where one moment the game is running perfectly smooth; single player, arcade or multiplayer - it doesn't matter which - Then the next match or phase loads up and the CPU will sky rocket from 35% CPU to 80, 85, 90, 95, 99%.

It'll continue to stay high and fluctuate in the 80s and 90s, causing the game to micro stutter until it eventually freezes the game and causes my computer to freeze up for some seconds, only to unfreeze seconds later and it'll go back to micro stuttering just to repeat the same process.

The only "fix" I found is to force close the game, re-open and play until it decides to randomly happen again.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Hey&nbsp;@TamTaaam&nbsp;Thanks for coming back with information!&nbsp;

You don't happen to have DirectX 12 active? You can take a look at:&nbsp;document\User name\STAR WARS Battlefront II\settings then open the file called&nbsp;BootOptions.&nbsp; The setting should be 0 on DX12.&nbsp;
