And thus is shown on the keyboard map (F1) And also shown on that keyboard map is the keystrokes for increasing and decreasing TC which are Keypad + and -

I have been playing this game (or trying to) since release and have already memorised most of the controls. The problem isn't knowing what buttons to press, it's that the game doesn't respond like it's supposed to. TC was never this bad in SH3 or SH4 and you shouldn't have to limit it's use to 1024 speed because it's broken, these things should work on release. The truth is the game is unstable and i'm sick of it, like many other people here. And it's not like i'm running on min specs either. (Core 2 Duo 6700, XFX8800GTX, 4GB RAM) I would expect this to run games almost flawlessly most of the time.

Aye aye Fozz, I just posted that in case.
It's never failed to work for me, in fact at the end of the day nothing has really failed in my install so far and runs more stable than FSX does on my system. Not that FSX runs badly on it, but framerate in some sceneries can be a bit low.

But as for SH5, it runs stable and smooth and every time. In fact the only time it ever failed in any respect was after I did a system restore, and according to tech support this messes with the registry in some way and caused SH5 to not be able to connect to UBI's master servers. And a simple reinstall fixed that. And because of online saves, I didnt even lose any campaign progress.
Im beginning to believe that the issues with instability that some experience may well be system dependent, and may well be due to hard drive performance or viruses, adware, spyware, and many other things of that nature. Even virus scan programs, system cleaners and the like can play havoc with things.
I know that about two years ago I had a trojan in my system that played havoc with anything I tried to run and had errors and crashes all the time.
So much so that I was so sick of it I took out that HD and slapped a nice big new one in and have had no problems ever since.

Non issue on the following rig;

AMD Phenom II 955 BE Rev C
Nvidia 9800GT
8gigs of RAM
Win 7 Pro

All sliders maxed out and 1920 by 1080 widescreen.

I can steam in at high TC hit the "\" key and she goes to TC 1 instantly.
