Honestly, I hope they don't. They screwed everyone with the first remake. It's been 3 years, and most bugs/crashes/instability still haven't been fixed. I still cannot play the game on my PC without the TITLE SEQUENCE making my entire computer freeze and crash. They shoveled garbage out the door and charged everyone $70 for it.
So no. EA, don't try and remake any other game. Just fade into obscurity and be forgotten like Dead Space: Remake

You might have a hardware issue. I’ve played the remake on both Xbox and PlayStation and am playing it on pc and I have never had the issues you speak of. The remake is Beautiful I believe on par with the resident evil 2 remake for best remake of all time.

Agreed, Runs great on my PC. i9 9900ks with an RTX 3080ti. Maxed, with frame rated limited to 85fps in NVCP. No crashes, and looks great.

I have an i5-9600kf and a Radeon Vii. Crashes happened on a clean Windows 10 installation with all drivers up to date. Every time, it was a DirectX function call that did not exist or a failing function call from the Frostbite engine. I had been fighting with it for MONTHS while EA community managers promised fixes were coming. The fixes never came. I was not alone. It still does not run on my computer, even after all this time, with new driver updates and OS updates. This is the only game on my system with this problem, and it's the only game I've ever had this problem with out of the hundreds of others that I own

I'm not sure what to say except it needs an SSD. What is your GPU etc. Hard to say without specs. Your CPU is i5-9600f. I imagine that may struggle in this game. But can't be sure. Certainly would have to use low settings.
Good luck. I hope you figure it out. Otherwise it really is just a hardware limitation.

If it were the game, it would happen everyone. There is probably some minor issue (easily overlooked) to do with your PC or installation.
Runs excellently for me on a 5 year old PC.

Hey, don't speak for everyone... I really hope they can bring us the Dead Space 2 remake. The first one ran great on my PC and I think that it is the same in most of all players who bought it too, otherwise the game wouldnt had 91% of positive critics on Steam.
It's a shame it can't run that great on your PC, you should try to figure out if there can be a hardware malfunction in your RAM, SSD (either NVMe), graphics card or motherboard, also try to check graphic card drivers or Direct X, NET Framework, SO updates, etc.
Hope the best for you.- GawgPorkChop7 months agoSeasoned Veteran
Exactly. Going by DS1 remake, it is not the best optimized program, and uses fairly heavy resources but on my PC (i9-9900KS & RTX 3080ti on Samsung SATA 600MB/s regular 2GB SSD). Real speed maxes at 550MB/s or 540MB/s, but hardly relevant.
So using remake 1 as a model, the same kind of thing would work on any new or fairly powerful PC. It is really hardware dependent.
