Battlefront FPS Problems

Hello @Alexander8728 

I am really sorry, but Star Wars: Battlefront is currently available only on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. I am afraid we can`t give you any advises about running this game on Mac. 

Cheers,

Archi

It makes no difference whether you are on an Apple PC or a regular WinTel machine, the hardware required is the same, and the failure to include any discrete video graphics adapter with a core from either AMD Radeon, or nVIDIA Geforce disqualifies the great majority of all Laptop systems, and many desktop PCs as well. 

Minimum PC System Requirements

    OS: 64-bit Windows 7 or later (Win 7 should have SP 1)
    Processor (Intel): Intel i3 6300T or equivalent (3.3 GHz)
    Memory: 8GB RAM
    Hard Drive: At least 40 GB of free space
    Graphics card (NVIDIA): nVidia GeForce GTX 660 2GB
    Graphics card (ATI): ATI Radeon HD 7850 2GB
    DirectX: 11.0 Compatible video card or equivalent
    Online Connection Requirements: 512 KBPS or faster Internet connection

There is no official support for systems below the above minimums.  Even if they might have seemed to run for a time, they weren't doing so as well as intended by the developers.

I am using Boot Camp Assistant to run windows 10 on a mac, I have full DirectX compatibility and have had no problems running other windows only games using this method. However all the other games I play are on Steam, is there some compatibility issue with Origin?

@Gorath_the_Elder

I have...

Graphics Card: GeFore GT 650M

Memory: 16 GB of RAM

Processor: i7-3740QM

OS: 64-bit Win 10

DirectX: 12.0

Online Connection: about 1 MBPS

When I first bought the game it ran perfectly on medium settings (the default that it set for my computer)

after a few hours playing it started slowing down and I had to lower the settings, the game runs fine on every map except twilight on Hoth, death star, and some bespin maps, if my computer is a few steps below minimum, why did it run perfectly fine when I first got it, and why the slow down?

@Gorath_the_Elder

Is there any way to upgrade my graphics card to a GTX 660 without getting a new laptop?

I have never felt sufficiently unrestrained with my budget to buy any Apple products after the IIGS in 1983 or close to that long ago.  The Lisa had come and gone, unsuccessfully, and the first Mac was either already out, or about to be, when I bought a Commodore for gaming (I already had an IBM to handle business needs, and traded in the Apple). 

If Apple builds laptops differently from the way that the WinTel laptops are assembled, and has any access available to remove the graphics card, I have no knowledge in that regard, sorry.

there are tiny screws on the bottom of my laptop, just it looks like I need a special screwdriver to unscrew them.

Probably "Torx" type screws, however, you should be seeking assistance from someone in your local area with experience disassembling electronic hardware.
