Read the article, the 360 has to swap but we just install off both discs.
| According to BioWare’s Chris Priestly’s post on the game’s official forums. “Even though there is a disc swap, it occurs at a carefully planned place in the game (that does not interfere with gameplay) and is done once,†Priestly explained and then went on to reassure that “You do not swap back and forth. 1 swap and then done.†|

Who really wants a retail copy of the PC version when EA is publishing with their DRM? Steam is gonna have the best version hands down.

The disc swap thing will only affect the Xbox 360 gamers. PC users wont have to change disc in the middle of the game, only while installing.

PC version is not balanced for disk swapping.

Depends if the developers allow players to pre-load the game.

I still haven't played the first one
