What works
Everything I tested. I'm running the game in full resolution and frame-rates are buttery smooth.

Workarounds
What was not tested
I have only played the game for about 8 hours, so it's possible I will run into issues. But no issues yet!

Additional Comments
I am running the Origin version. Origin is a pain like no other to get working, but once I got Origin working the game ran without issue.
It's possible that some of the work-arounds nessesary to get Origin working are important for getting the game running? If so it might be worth reading my how-to on getting Origin running.
