High VRAM Usage, Possible Memory Leak

Hi

I, as well as many other players, am having similar issues with the game. When I load up the game and start playing in a match, everything is VERY smooth and I get a consistent high framerate of 100 fps+. But then, out of absolutely nowhere, my fps drops off a cliff, and the game becomes unplayable. I have more than adequate specs to handle high graphical settings on this game with ease - I checked for thermal throttling (temps were perfectly normal for CPU & GPU), I updated my drivers, checked the integrity of the game's files, reinstalled the game, repaired x86 & x64 redistributables, made sure my windows updates were all up to date, dumped the game's cache, and even put all the graphical settings to the absolute lowest values --- NOTHING worked. I also experienced similar issues with the beta, but I still purchased the game because I was confident the developers would have the issues fixed --- I was very wrong, unfortunately. I understand the game was just released, but these are basic things that should be ironed out by launch -- especially for a AAA title like Battlefield. For $75, the game is not worth it in its current state as long as these issues go unfixed. It's a lot of fun while the game is running well, but that is very short-lived because the performance issues hit pretty fast (usually after one or two games). Also, the video memory increases as the game runs over time. This points to a memory leak issue. PLEASE fix this ASAP!!!!
