Apologies if this has been stated before, but the actual width of the channel is much smaller, and definitely not 80 miles (~130 km). That would be the distance via the Eurotunnel, from Dover through Calais and then on to Dunkirk. The point-to-point distance from the Dunkirk beaches to Ramsgate is ~ 30 miles (<50km),…

First off, amazing example of species co-evolution and synergy. Secondly, “just 70mm” is not that small. 7cm, almost 2.5-3 inches, so rather on the large scale as far as crabs are concerned.

It’s become too much style over substance. Visuals are nice, especially at this level, which is not a common occurrence in a series, and you can see that a lot of effort has been put into them. But I believe most of them redundant, and - not to gripe regarding comparisons to the book -, a good half of the scenes so…

Fast-paced (Led Zeppelin always gets me up), dark hues, lots of…

So, you believe the issue was CPU throttling? I have a similar 2.5-yr old set up (i5-4690K OC’d to 3.8, 16GB Ram and the 1070 Asus OC). I can easily max out all latest AAA titles and get >70-80 fps, but I have seen numerous dips in the fps in crowded scenes (and points where there is a shitload of things happening) to…
