Dead Space 2 CE online pass codes
Do unused Collector’s Edition codes for Dead Space 2 redeem in 2023? There is no expiration date listed on the voucher. I’m trying to get the Zealot Suit that was attached to the CE online pass. The problem is that PSN doesn’t tell me WHY the code is “invalid”. It just brings me to a confirmation screen detailing the CE content I’m about to redeem. I hit “confirm”, and it loads. I then get a screen telling me that the code is invalid and to check my entries. I am on PS3. I cannot find confirmation anywhere online and tech support here simply told me they don’t validate codes on console, which was not even my question. Fair enough, but what I’m after specifically is if ANY of these codes are still valid in 2023, or if they are actually expired due to age (the voucher does NOT list an expiration, but I realize this game is 12 years old). The last confirmed redemption I could find on Google was dated a few years back before the game turned 10 years old. So is the voucher I hunted down used, or are they all invalid today due to an unlisted and unannounced expiration? If so, kinda sucks that EA made this Zealot suit permanently exclusive. I’ve purchased two reasonably priced Collectors Editions and both vouchers were rejected. Before I waste anymore money trying to find a valid code, I need to know if they are even accepted anymore. As of now, I’m kind of just risking that if it’s unredeemed, it’ll take. Be nice to have official confirmation.
Dead Space 3 (PC): false VM detection on Surface — VBS can't be disabled
Dead Space 3 (Steam, PC) refuses to launch on my machine with this error: "We're sorry, an error has occurred — This game will not run in a virtual environment. Please use your main Windows environment to play." The machine is physical hardware, not a virtual machine. System: - Microsoft Surface Laptop 4 (Secured-core PC) - Intel Core i7-1185G7 - Windows 11 Pro, build 10.0.26200.9457 - UEFI 33.108.143 - Windows Defender only, no third-party security software - No virtualization software installed The check appears to trigger on the mere presence of the Windows hypervisor, which Windows 11 runs by default for VBS (virtualization-based security). I tried every documented way to shut it down: - Disabled Core Isolation / Memory Integrity (confirmed HVCI stopped) - bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off - bcdedit /set vsmlaunchtype off - bcdedit /set {current} loadoptions DISABLE-LSA-ISO,DISABLE-VBS - Registry: EnableVirtualizationBasedSecurity = 0, Secure Launch (SystemGuard) = 0 - Verified Hyper-V, Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Hypervisor Platform, WSL, Windows Sandbox and Containers are all disabled After rebooting, HyperVisorPresent is still True and hvservice.sys is still running. Per Microsoft's own support answer on an identical Surface Pro case, Surface devices enable virtualization at the firmware level to support security features such as Memory Integrity, and this cannot be fully disabled by the user. Surface UEFI has no virtualization toggle at all. So there is no action available to me that makes this game launch. Could the detection be changed to identify an actual virtual machine rather than the presence of a hypervisor? VBS is enabled by default on Windows 11, and on Secured-core PCs it cannot be turned off — I expect more reports like this over time. Happy to provide an msinfo32 report if that helps.Dead Space 3 - Help Steam Achievements
Hello EA Support, I'm contacting you regarding Dead Space 3 on Steam. Since an update released in 2024, several Steam achievements appear to have become unobtainable. As a result, it is currently impossible for players to complete the game 100%. The achievements affected are: - Aren't You Thankful? - Supercharger - Survivalist - Pure Lunacy Could you please investigate this issue? If restoring the required functionality is no longer possible, I would appreciate it if these achievements could be updated or removed from the Steam achievement list so that completion remains achievable. Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope this issue can be addressed for the remaining Dead Space 3 community.
Dead Space Remake BSOD
I've been having a recurring issue with Dead Space Remake where it eventually BSODs my entire PC. It only seems to happen with Dead Space and usually after playing for around 40 minutes. There's no specific area or action that seems to trigger it.. I can just leave Isaac standing in a room and after 40 min or so I'll come back to the PC crashed. I've tried a bunch of the the things others say to try already: updating NVIDIA drivers, clearing shader caches, disabling HDR, capping FPS at 60, verifying the game files, reinstall the game, and changing graphics settings. I've gotten two different BSODs: SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (0x3B) and IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.
Dead Space 3 Origin/Steam Grey screen crash
Hey, i've been struggling to get Dead Space 3 to work on PC lately. It used to work for years on the exact same computer. any time there's a quick time event the game gets a gray screen then crashes a few seconds later. Both steam and Origin versions have same problem. I've tried windowed with vsync off, reinstalling, verifying files, reinstalling DX setup and vcredist manually. 10+ nvidia graphics updates later and still same issue.The Case for Dead Space 4: Why the Industry Demands a Sequel
The Case for Dead Space 4: Why the Industry Demands a Sequel Message: The contemporary gaming landscape is experiencing a massive resurgence in high-intensity survival horror and dark sci-fi narratives. The commercial and critical triumphs of Resident Evil Requiem, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, and the Silent Hill 2 remake demonstrate an unprecedented market appetite for mature, atmospheric thrillers. The 2023 Dead Space remake proved that this franchise remains the pinnacle of the genre; even if initial sales fell short of internal corporate metrics, the overwhelming critical consensus confirms that the demand for this universe remains potent. The Dead Space intellectual property offers an unparalleled synthesis of tactical combat, suffocating atmosphere, and psychological horror that remains unmatched. Leaving Isaac Clarke’s narrative permanently suspended following the cliffhanger of Dead Space 3 neglects a deeply loyal, multi-generational fanbase. Leveraging current-generation hardware, a definitive fourth installment would offer unprecedented immersion, sophisticated zero-gravity mechanics, and the narrative closure this legendary trilogy earned. The audience is engaged, the market viability is proven, and the continuation of Dead Space is vital. #DeadSpace4 #MakeDeadSpace4 #DeadSpaceRemake #EAMotive #ElectronicArts #SurvivalHorror #SciFiHorror #IsaacClarke #BringBackDeadSpace #GamingCommunity
Steam Deck isn't able to launch EA app/Dead Space 3
This is in regards to Dead Space 3. Have previously been able to co-op between my friend on the Steam Deck and myself on a Windows 11 PC. Now within the last few months the EA app is unable to launch on his steam deck. His files are verified on steam, and he tried an earlier version of Proton and Proton Experimental to no avail. I read online and some people have commented that an update to the EA app broke something for Steam Deck users. Would love to be able to continue the co-op :(BAJAME EL PRECIO DEL DEAD SPACE, GRACIAS
Hi there! I'm a Steam user from Argentina and wanted to bring something to your attention. In 2023, Steam introduced a new LATAM region which includes many countries in Latin America such as mine, and also added suggested prices to make games more affordable while boosting sales.Currently, Dead Space doesn't have regional pricing here. Would you consider setting a price for our region when you get a chance? This would be greatly appreciated by players across Latin America! Kind regards,
Unable to install Dead Space 3
What purpose does the forum or any "support" entity of EA even serve? In the information age, you cant get prompt responses on game-specific forums here, and of all the threads I have read in this area, the community managers basically say "there is nothing we can do." Why even run the things if you are either hamstrung into being unable to do anything, or are fundamentally unwilling to provide any help? (CM EA_Lanna: Edited to update thread title to focus question succinctly.)
