Is there any stuttering in the version EA PLAY?

I think OP has refunded the game and abandon this thread.

I did find some settings that helped mitigate this a great deal for me. I turned on Dynamic Resolution Scale, set the DLSS Mode to auto and set the Graphics Quality to auto. It still doesn't seem to look as good as it did previously, but it still looks really good.

Yeah... got stuttering too... why is it happening?

You guys could all try updating to the newest version of NVIDIA DLSS. The game shipped with version 2.5 and never updated for some reason. All you gotta do is download the newest DLSS which I think is like version 3.6 (could be wrong I'd have to check) and just copy/paste that download into the Dead Space directory. It overwrites the old version and you'll have the updated DLSS.

Edit: Here's the link to download the newest DLSS. It is version 3.6. https://www.techpowerup.com/download/nvidia-dlss-dll/

The thing is that the game ran perfectly fine the first time around for me. I don't know if transferring my saves caused problems or what.

Can the new DLSS dll be downloaded directly from nvidea? I don't download files like dlls from sites and put them on my pc, even though I understand most of the time they are perfectly fine.

Try to cap your fps to 60 or half of your monitor's refresh rate , less stutters more stable.

It's called traversal stutters. It's common in this game. Hopefully when denuvo is removed it will go away. For the meantime cap your frame rate to 60 and enjoy the game. Not even fsr 3 mods can fix it. This is clearly a cpu issues of having issues rendering. We might need a cpu that can brute force it or denuvo removed. Some games have these issues even players don't realize. Example resident evil village bug ladies cause extreme lag on all systems. Friend was using 2080ti at the time. I was using 1080 and other friend using 1070. We all super hardcore lagged with all different system cpu gpu from top line to mid range. Denuvo causes issues from longer loading times at the worst to straight lag in certain areas. I am glad more money is being put into these pc ports. It's at the cost of denuvo to prevent piracy and it works. I just wish it was removed sooner for actually paying customers that have to deal with half baked products. If you see these things you need to refund asap.

You have absolutely no idea what the hell you are talking about. Stop blaming Denuvo for everything.
With Resident Evil Village it has been proven time and time again that denuvo didn't cause those issues, it was capcoms very own DRM they put on top of denuvo that messed things up.

Dead Space has a severe engine issue that is tanking performance on any system. Removing Denuvo won't magically fix that. EA has to fix that but they won't so we're all stuck with this.

Yes, and that has happened with other games where devs either didn't implement Denuvo well, or something they added messed up performance. Anti cheat software for mp games for instance could cause such things. Players always want to blame Denuvo though.
