Don't buy Star Wars Battlefront 2 if your (or the person you're buying for) PC doesn't meet the minimum system requirements. We also recommend avoiding the game if you're teetering on the edge of the minimum requirements because there's a good chance you'll get frustrated with the game's performance.
If you load up Battlefront 2 on an under spec'd machine, you'll run into performance problems. There's no way around it. Same goes for those of you loading it onto a rig that barely meets the requirements. You can tweak your settings all you want, but it's still not going to be ideal. Our advice is to wait until you can make an upgrade to your graphics card or memory or whatever part you need to upgrade. That way, you'll have a more enjoyable experience and you won't be one of those people on the forums asking EA and DICE why your game is running poorly. As a reminder, here are the Battlefront 2 specs for Windows PC:

Did they get rid of all the cheating going on in the first game? If not, what’s the point of getting this one? Players able to kill in one shot with crap weapons from across the battlefield, jet packs that are always charged, shooting someone in the FACE repeatedly and they don’t die, turn and shoot you once and you’re dead. It goes on and on and on and yeah you can report people but they never seem to be banned and an entire game of cheaters is back the next day. Do you have control of your damned game this time or not??

Preordering is why EA keeps beating up your favourite titles. If you’d stop that stupidity they’d actually pay more attention to what they’re doing.
You’ve already let them know that all they need to do for your money is release a fantastically early announcement coupled with a snazzy teaser trailer and everyone will make them richer.
Invite them to work for their money for a change.
