A little tweak that may work if you are having lower than normal FPS issues.
Try deselecting "Use Hardware Physics" in the Settings, Video option menu.
I have an AMD/ATI GPU and CPU and after deselecting this option got a BIG jump in performance.
It didn't seem to make much difference when I had it ticked in the past but after seeing my FPS continually get worse of late, I tried turning it off and it made a 10-20 FPS difference.
I presume the option is for PhysX support on Nvidia cards. So try turning it off if you have AMD cards or CPU.
