The game has 3 huge main maps. As you first enter a map, the game starts out with about 50 minimum fps. As you progress in a map, it gets saturated with stalkers and mutants, and the minimum fps drops down to about 25 toward the end of the map. It's a bit silly really, imho, as you can step out of a safe house and right away be in the middle of a firefight between 15vs15 stalkers vs mutants.
Overall, the performance is great at the beginning of a map, and drops down to about Clear Sky level toward the end of the map.
As for bugs, the game is surprisingly nearly bug free. No complaints in that department (there are a few graphical glitches, no biggie).
