Game is consuming high CPU process power making it very Hot

[KhronoX]

I found this game is consuming around 30%-60% CPU process power all time. Making it very hot when playing. Around 60-80°C. For comparison, Forza Horizon 5 don't consume such high power nor get my PC so Hot. FH5 consume 15-25% CPU Power and temps are around 40-50°C.
It would be great if they can optimize the high load to the GPU.

If you turn on VSYNC the problem goes away. In all games that you do not open, the display card will try to get maximum performance. You can fix the fps 60 if you want.

Thanks, but I just now tried with VSYNC ON, but the CPU consumption got higher to 75% peaks then 40% average. I locked FPS at 60 and monitor at Full HD 60hz. (I have 2 monitors, don't know if this can be an issue)
Quality at Low, no shadows. With quality at High and shadows it gets 60% CPU peaks and temps of 70°C.
I don't know why this game consume so much CPU power.

this is not a game it is a nasa atomic particle accelerator lol...I have the same problem with the use of the cpu I think that everyone the game is not optimized

See this thread here:

[BUG] 100% CPU usage? Really?! Why?

Not only does it have very high CPU usage to the point where the PCs turn off to prevent overheating, but someone with a 3080 has 90+% GPU usage and a 3090 has over 70% GPU usage. Either it is really, REALLY poorly optimised or there is something shady going on with the game. My money would be on the latter.

same issue here. Had this with ICS1 as well

Had to refund the game. Consider three things.

1. Even a poorly optimized game won't overheat your cpu
2. They've done nothing to address or even acknowledge the issue
3. They put bitcoining mining and overheating computers into the game, making it next to impossible to find out if this game is up to something.

REALLY cool concept, extremely suspect software.
