Launch directly from EA app rather than Steam
When using Titanfall 2 purchased through Steam inside Parallels, you may have issues with the EA launcher not working. The EA launcher automatically installs when you install the game through Steam, and when you launch the game with Steam, it is supposed to open the EA launcher in the background to open the game. For some users, this never works, and you end up back in Steam without the game running. To fix this, open the EA app manually to launch the game.

Disable Mirroring of Documents folder in Parallels
Save games and saved settings may not work with default Parallels settings because Titanfall 2 has a bug where it is unable to save files onto a different drive from the one the game is installed on. This affects Windows users who e.g. install the game outside of C:. For Parallels users, it means that if you have mirroring turned on for the Documents folder, nothing will ever save, including both game settings and single-player campaign saves. To get saves working, disable this setting in parallels:
