    Actually no, I tried this at stock speed, my 110% stable overclock of 525/1050/475 and my max stable overclock of 550/1200/475 and they are just there.

    That's weird... I don't think it's artifacting because those are actual objects just floating in the air... I haven't seen anything like that but occasionally I'd shoot someone off a roof and have them just stop half way in the middle of their fall and just float in the air... game glitches?

    LMAO - I shot someone off the roof of a building and their arm apparently got stuck on the railing and stretched allll the way to the body on the ground. I was lol'ering.

    lmao, wow. Yeah... the game has beautiful graphics but it's in need of a patch xD Whats so realistic about a floating corpse and a man with a 50 foot arm? xD Not to mention in one of the levels when being lifted out in the helicopter you CLEARLY see a huge seam in the middle of the ocean where the waters textures meet. So ya, I think it's just bugs.

    what about those patches: 1.3 and 1.4 - are they strictly for multiplayer use? i mean do they fix anything in the single play?
