Can MacBook Pro mid 2015 15" with Intel Iris Pro and i7 run Batllefield 4?

I have Mac Book Pro 15inch Retina 256 Gb SSD Intel Iris Pro 1536mb and Intel Core i7 Is it possible to play Battlefield 4 in multiplayer with 50 - 60 fps? If I install Windows, buy Battlefield would it run properly? I didn't buy this Mac for gaming, but recently i saw review of Intel Iris Pro GPU, it showed, that Battlefield 4 works well with it. Please help me, i want to know for sure that BF 4 will work well, because i don't want to waste money and time. Thank you very much!

    You can try to install Windows and run Battlefield 4 and test it. If you will have problems with the game, you can use "The Origin Great Game Guarantee" and return Battlefield 4 https://www.origin.com/en-us/great-game-guarantee

    "Refund requests can be made within 24 hours after you first launch the game, within seven days from your date of purchase, or within seven days from the game’s release date if you pre-ordered, whichever comes first. And if you purchase a new EA game within the first 30 days of its release date and can’t play it due to technical reasons within EA’s control, you can request a refund within 72 hours after you first launch the game instead of 24".

    I'm sorry, but I really doubt it will be able to handle this game.  As far as I saw, the "Intel Iris Pro" is integrated graphics on the processor, not a dedicated GPU.  These are never enough to run games such as Battlefield, and if you are able to run it, I know it wont get 50-60 FPS.  I know someone who has an HP laptop with an i7 and a Nvidia 740M dedicated GPU and only gets 50 frames if she is lucky, and the frame rate bounces everywhere.  The other thing is you would have to spend money on Windows for the game to even work.

    As for buying the game like @IIPrest0nII suggested, you could do this, but to get the refund, you will have to make sure you stick to the strict rules of the refund policy that he has conveniently put in his response.  A better option for you to try out the game would be to do the Origin Game Time trial of Battlefield 4, which gives you 168 hours of access from the first time you launch the game.
