    Is anyone else trying to run this game? I've got an i7 @ 720, and an OC'd 5850 that runs at 700-1000-1000. Yet, no matter how low I put the settings I can't even keep 30 FPS.

    Help?

    Check to see if stealth mode is on or off, should be off.

    It might not seem on, but try toggling it, you'd be surprised.

    I actually can't toggle it at will, seeing as my light buttons stopped working long ago and I can't get it to register that I'm pushing it without about 10 minutes of frustration. I can promise it's not on, though.
