CPU bottleneck.

The Season 3 update completely wrecked CPU performance for me. I’m running a Ryzen 7 7800X3D with an RX 9070 XT, and before this update the game ran flawlessly — CPU utilization never went above 40%. Now, after the update, my CPU is pinned at a constant 100% usage and is severely bottlenecking my GPU. Because of that, the game has become extremely laggy, full of constant stuttering, and FPS has dropped significantly compared to before the update. I’ve already tried resetting shaders and cache, disabling all FSR upscaling, lowering graphics settings, raising graphics settings, and multiple other troubleshooting steps with absolutely no improvement. This issue is clearly widespread, yet EA still hasn’t acknowledged it at all. It’s frustrating to see a major update completely tank performance on high-end hardware with no communication or response from the developers.
