I bought it today. It runs at a shitty frame rate (with or without float32) but playable. There's a bit of mouse lag I hope to fix but I like the game so far.
All the talk of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. made me want to play the game again (5th time).
Neo: there's a 12 minute segment on the game at the end of this episode that's pretty fair and show's how the game is either love it or hate it. I definitely fall in the love it category as it's my favorite single player FPS since Halo 1.

Try adding -noprefetch after the shortcut. Also make sure you don't have anything like AIM open.
To improve performance, from the main menu, select Options, and then select
the Video tab. Any of the following should result in improved performance.
—Change Render to Static Lighting
—Lower the Quality Settings to Medium, Low or Minimum
—Lower the game resolution to 1024x768 or lower
—Enable Full Screen
—Under the Advanced button, lower the settings for Vision Distance;
Anisotropic Filtering; Antialiasing; and Shadows Quality
Background Applications and Performance
Programs that run in the background while on the Internet, such as ICQ,
web browsers, voice communication applications, or file sharing programs
cut into the speed at which S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl plays.
Turning off these Internet-specific applications can also increase your
game speed. Antivirus and firewall software also commonly contribute to
performance issues.

You try an older version of float32?
Yeah, I tried a couple older ones first. I didn't really notice a frame rate difference but the graphics look better in the newer one.
I'll give that -noprefetch a try.
I think he played HL2 like 2 months ago and didn't like it or something
No wonder he plays that EA shit.
EA? Half Life 2 was good; I'll probably end up playing through eps 1&2. I like FPS's that are either really slow and methodical, like Stalker, or really fast like Halo. The stuff in the middle: HL2, Bioshock, etc are fun, but not my favorites.
Battlefield was the shit I was referring to.
