The game has become unplayable. I was playing it fine last night and I think it was after a death then it kept freezing. The game chose ultra settings for me so I thought there was a problem there. I lowered the settings and it didn't make a difference. I turned off vsync but still no difference. When I could play the game was very smooth with no issues., that was for about 3 hours .
My specs are
Asus Hero VIII with i5 6600
16 Gigs GSkill Trident
Gigabyte 980 TI
Running on SSD both OS and game
The problem happened once so I restarted and was running GPUz as well as watching task manager. Everything was going fine then when it started happening my CPU went to 100% and stayed there, on all four cores, and the GPU usage went basically on and off while this was happening from 0 - almost 80%. I shut down my PC because it was unplayable and when I started it today the same thing happened. I am playing because of Origin Access and was going to buy the game but this is a deal breaker unless there are others who have seen this issue and know what is causing it. I searched the forums and google and can't find a similar problem.
I turned off everything like G Force experience but no difference. Thing is it is not just the game the menus do the same thing when it happens so I have to use task manager to stop the game. The memory usage doesn't seem to go above around 8 gigs no matter what. The game was fun when I was able to play it for the 3 or 4 hours and the environment blows me away.
Has anyone else seen this?

Maybe reinstall?
I can play Doom on Ultra, GTA V on highest settings and I am using a Dell GSync monitor at 1440P but this game is unplayable for some reason. Sadly I will have to pass on this one until a few patches down the road which is too bad I was looking forward to it. I am just thankful I didn't pre-order and was able to try with Origin Access as I would have been upset if I had to pay $72 for a game I can't play. For everyone else, enjoy the game, it seems like a great game and lots of fun.
The game launched midnight here. I have been playing it for 45 minutes with a lot of freezing.
My game freezes for a second or two every 30 seconds.
Also textures are oddly very blurry.
After restart if it doesnt work, try going offline in Origin.
My rig:
GTX 760
HERO VII - i5-4460
Driver version: 368.39
Switched to ultra textures and seems no microstuttering anymore. So might be lack of VRAM.
I hope this helps anyone else who has this problem.
