I think I read something on the official forums about some speculation that FRAPS (some versions anyway) might not accurately gauge FPS. Something to do with how the game is rendered, or being that it's on the new Unreal3 engine, FRAPS might not have correct support for accurate FPS.

Just what I read though. Haven't tried anything myself. All I know is that it runs like sh*t! :(

Well I have fraps and the in-game fps from the console running(Counter Strike Source), and fraps isn't accurate for the amount of times it updates in 30 seconds. But fraps is a really good movie program :D

Yeah that would be cool to have some people here post clips of their best takedowns. :D

I'm in like the second level in Vegas (they are pretty long). Had to go into the Soldier Room to rescue the Tracy-whatever reporter. That was probably the hardest hostage rescue so far. The room was very large, had lots of ways in, but even with flash grenades they would kill her first so it was hopeless. After trying different things (a silenced assault from the top level would've been cool, but I got spotted), I decided to take out the guy with the pistol to the reporter's head by myself, then call in the team with a flash, took out the other guy right by me, then stepped back to avoid flash, then with the team in there I jumped back in, dropped a few fools, and hostage was safe soon after. So now I'm in the maintenance tunnels/sewers, where there was a shield laying against the wall. Shield is pretty damn cheap, so I've been getting pistol practice and using that for now.

Awesome game. :)
