Every door where you must use kenesis on to open makes some constant aweful ticking sound comparab...

No fix yet?
I've the same annoying door sound bug, as shown in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYIYcjbVJFI
Anyone want to bet whether we will get a patch before, after, or at the same time as the first DLC pack?
I'd be willing to stare in awe, should we recieve any patches whatsoever. DS2 recieved rather poor aid in the past, hence my hope slowly dies every day in relation to DS3.
Since there was no refund button, I just went ahead and "asked a question" on Amazon, linked them to this forum and requested a refund in the message.
They actually did it, I have $65 back...happened in less than 24hrs.
In the message I mentioned that the studio wasn't responding and told them I'd buy it again if they ever fixed it, which is what I plan to do.
By the time it's fixed, I think the game will cost even less than now <eyeroll>.
Anyway, I'm a happier non-customer until that day...so many things to do with $65!
This issue has been ignored for far too long already. It is time somebody paid attention to it, because it RUINS Dead Space 3.

Starting from Chapter 3, CLOSED Kinesis Doors constantly stutter as if their closing sound effect is stuck on infinite repeat.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Every single one that is closed stutters, often multiple ones at a time. Like a bus engine that goes BRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
2. The more FPS one has the faster they stutter. Vsync = 30 fps = Slower Stuttering. No Vsync = 60 fps = Faster Stuttering.
3. Since they are EVERYWHERE, it is impossible to get away from it. The constant noise RUINS the atmosphere.
4. If you open a door, it stops to stutter - but every other closed one in sight immediately takes it over, if they are not already stuttering.
5. The first Patch DID NOT FIX IT. How is it possible? Is nobody at Visceral aware of this issue?

I, as well as many other human individuals, paid money to enjoy DS3, yet the PC version has to suffer from such a ANNOYINGLY BOTHERSOME bug / glitch ( among countless others on both PC and consoles ) that first occurs within areas that were advertised as MORE DEAD-SILENT then ever before in the franchise. Why is this the case? Bad port? What is the reason? And would you please fix it? Two weeks have passed by now.
And if Patch 1 couldn't fix it, then I honestly wonder if anybody will try to at all. My money will not go to future EA titles if this issue remains.
THANK YOU AND HAVE A NICE DAY ---
Bump^ to this. I have been a fan of the franchise from the start but in a game that, because of a glitch that is no doubt SIMPLE to fix, doesnt deliver on something it ADVERTISED (silence), I'm starting to have serious second thoughts about dumping EA games altogether. Honestly, when we buy a game, we don't expect it to be flawless (no game is) but we DO expect play testing and we DO expect support - it is NOT too much to ask!
- Count me in, same problems, same dissapointing feeling this hasn't been fixed or even acknowledged to be an issue as of yet despite a fairly sizeable patch.
Same problem here. FIX THIS PROBLEM ALREADY!!! I paid you guys money for a working game! I bought your stupid game on day one at $60 and this is what I get? I haven't been able to play yet and have since seen Dead Space 3 drop in price to $40 at amazon.com. I COULD HAVE SAVED MONEY!
If this bug isn't acknowledged I will NEVER buy another EA game at day one again. I've already canceled my preorders for the next two EA games I planned on buying: (Army of Two & SimCity). I can't believe this problem still persists even after the first patch. You have got to be kidding me.
I have contacted Amazon and got my refund. I will repurchase the game (at a discounted price) once this problem has been fixed.
I have also recommended that Amazon pull the PC version of the game from sale until EA releases a proper patch. Amazon has agreed to look into the problem.
I STRONGLY recommend everyone else who bought from Amazon call in to do the same thing. Be sure to reomend Amazon pull the game from sale. Hitting these big companies in the wallet is the only way they will be accountable to their customers.
