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 ---
This glitch has forced me to stop playing about 2 hours into DS3. While I am disappointed in Visceral and EA; I'm not all that upset about this. The inability to play Dead Space 3 has forced my to finally start playing the copy of Valkyria Chronicles that has been sitting on my shelf for years, and I've been enjoying it for more than the sections of DS3 prior to the game ruining glitch.
I wanted a scary game...that's the only reason I paid $60 plus tax, the first two did that, but I can't be scared when I'm this annoyed.
So I got Amazon to refund my $60 plus tax too. The only way I'm going to buy again to continue play is if the game is anything like the first two...creepy/scary.
I also will be enjoying non-EA material with my $63, quite a few titles I can get packaged on Steam for that price.
Bottom line: your game is not fun until you fix the door bug.
Mephiem, I'm glad you are making the best of a bad situation. Valkyrie Chronicles is a FANTASTIC game that more people should enjoy. I myself started playing Hitman: Absolution and Zelda Skyward Sword in DS3's place. However, I still urge you (and everyone else for that matter) to get a refund if you can. We need to stop letting these big companies take our money while not delivering what's promised.
Just so EA knows, I don't acutally mind that there is a bug in the game. I get it that games are complicated. What REALLY bothers me is that the first patch came out and it wasn't fixed. We haven't even got acknowledged yet! This is poor customer service at it's worst.
