Re: Traversal stutter on PC
Any update from the developer on the traversal stutter? It's so annoying when entering a new room or area the game starts to stutter for MS.

The traversal stutter is unchanged, it's still as prominent as it was on launch. It happens so frequently that it really ruins the experience.

It seems they've tried to fix it with the last 2 patches, but it's still exactly the same for me. I still have hope though, the devs truly seem to care about this remake and I doubt they want it to be known as Stutter Space forever.
I sure hope so. They can only work on it as long as EA allows, so I’m hoping for a quick resolution. They fixed the PS5 bug in 3 days…

I really hope EA gives them the time to fix it, it would be such a shame to leave it in this state, it's so close to being perfect.
- @MrH999 You and me both, it’s otherwise a perfect game for me.
- @MrH999 Do you sometimes get stutters just panning the camera around Isaac while standing still?
It's kind of hilarious that a big company like EA is asking his customers to profite video and other specifications from the pc hardware to solve the traversal stutter issue. Don't you have good pc's to test your games before releasing?
I ran CapFrameX for 30 minutes whilst playing. I had the game locked to 120fps using RTSS.
- @MrH999 This program removed all stuttering?

Yes this is happening and will probably continue to happen unless you guys figure out a way to stream the assets dramatically more efficiently or use DirectStorage, unless the game already utilizes DS.

Anything else? No, aside from traversal stutters it runs absolutely incredibly well
I really hope this can be fixed. It's a bummer when it happens because like someone else said, it's like 99% perfect but the 1% we're seeing here only becomes more and more glaring because of that.
- @macatak Yeah, we had several AMD GPU owners report stuttering in the Reddit post the dev’s made about the issue.
I did a comparison of Dead Space and Spider Man, both games were capped to 120fps and settings were adjusted to hit that target 99% of the time.
The difference is night and day, Spider Man runs flawlessly (apart from the one massive spike in the middle, that's the only time the game has stuttered in 6 hours), while Dead Space is a stuttering mess. If I can web sling around a massive open world without stuttering I should be able to walk slowly around a ship without constantly hitching.
- @MrH999 It’s hard not to feel like a “second-class gamer” at this point. PS5 had a launch bug that was as serious as ours, and they communicated quite heavily and had the problem fixed within 72 hours. PC is 9 days post-launch and still suffering from the same problem, with very little communication outside of a Reddit post asking for DxDiag’s and specs.
I love this game, and desperately want to be able to enjoy it. I wish they’d at least tell us they’re working to resolve it, instead of radio silence.

I spent £1200 upgrading my computer to be ready for it, only to have the experience ruined by stuttering, so I'm pretty upset honestly.
