No. Only a few glitches and bad mouse input (has work arounds and a fix)

its a horrible port
Mixed.

I've already had to restart the game a few times. First due to installing a fix for the mouse accelleration. Another because I encountered a door glitch that made progress impossible. And a 3rd time cause the game flat out crashed on me.

I love this game, but jesus christ this is about to make me refund.

runs well. but that's the problem actually. running this game above its native framerate causes weird physic glitches and mouse sensitivity. The ingame vsync is just garbage, capping the game to 30. but it's a relatively easy fix. look up the dead space mouse fix mod, stick it in your dead space folder, then force vsync (or a 60fps cap) through a 3rd party program. Easiest way to do that is using your graphics card control panel and forcing it on for dead space.

It's horrible if you play it on modern hardware. You need to either play it on console (superior versions) or an era correct PC.

I recommend the PS3 versions of the trilogy. Xbox had a lot of issues for dead space 1 and 2. 3 was fine on both consoles.

Absolutely not.

You have only 2 things to do to enjoy it:

Disable ingame Vsync and enable it in your graphic drivers

Google and download Dead space 1 mouse fix: its a DLL file you put in your dead space install inventory so that you can enjoy keyboard / mouse controls without issues.

Its the best sci fi horror game ive ever played, just be sure to stay under 100 fps because it bugs if you play over it, game wasnt designed for such refresh rate when it was released so many years ago, on console.

By what people are saying about this port support it seems like people are saying well it well it's good when you do this and that To fix it Which in my eyes is still a bad port Or the game hasn't aged well on PC Due to how it was programmed

All you need is a mouse fix found right here on the Guide section and cap your FPS to 60.
Do not listen to these people complaining.
the mouse and controller support is ♥♥♥♥♥♥. That DLL file that supposedly fixes it doesn't work.

You either did not put the files where they need to be.
Also did you try capping the fps to 60 or at least 80 ? Mine works perfect.
i tried it with and without vsync and i put the file wherever the instruction called for...Maybe i'll try it again just to see. Anyway, it'd be great if there was a fix for Binary Domain. Great game with broke mouse support. I'll never forgive Sega or EA for this incompetence and disregard for gamers.

It's not a bad port, but it can be made better.

It even has soft shadows on PC, whereas that's missing on consoles.

I really good port. I am baffled by anyone silly who wants to play with K+M a game literally designed around a controller. Not fault of the game that you chose inferior controlls.
I tried it with a controller, it was awful. They managed to do a port so bad it doesn't play well no matter what input device you use. It didn't have much joystick pressure zones of detection. In other words, I remember it as aiming was either too fast or way too fast and didn't allow for easy accurate aim.
