Great, so your Intel graphics are supported which is good. Can you set up a new user account on your Mac and try and play in that account?
- ApprovedSo Oddly it works fine in a new user, till I actually try to log in to my EA account then it crashes every time I hit enter to log in. It does not kernel panic though just the application closes.

Yes, it does that annoyingly. Just make sure the box is checked to save your details. Next time you open the Launcher you should be logged in.
It's not that odd that it works in a new user account, it confirms that something is conflicting with the game in your normal user account. Something serious and odd to cause the kernel panic though. Maybe reinstalling the OS may help? Back up your Mac beforehand just in case but you shouldn't lose any data as the OS installs over the top of your current installation, checking and replacing any system files and permissions which may be corrupted.
