PSA: Don't bother with Devil May Cry 5 on PC if you suffered stuttering/freezing in Resident Evil 2 Remake
- Thread starter jett
- Start date
How about shipping a functional product instead?
They still haven't done anything to fix the performance and control issues with Resident Evil 2 either.
And lots of people will have bought the game somewhere other than Steam, which may not have the same refund policy. I've had a lot of trouble trying to get refunds from GreenManGaming in the past (an authorized distributor) when Fallout 4 launched in a completely broken state, for example.
I notice it only stutters when my controller disconnects, I have a wireless controller with a cord charger attached to my comp's usb. Also, I would say buy it anyways.
I'm also running a 4th gen, just an i7, game is on a mediocre SATA SSD, no stutter whatsoever at 90-150fps.
I have a eight core i7 with a 1070 and it is struggling when Mr. X is on the screen, which doesn't make any sense, I have it set to medium-ish settings.
Where is the game stored?
edit: and what is your vsync and frame rate set to?
I have vsync set to on and I believe it is stored on my primary SSD m.2 drive. I have the frame rate set to 60 and the refresh rate at to 120hz.
Try setting vsync to off and variable frame rate. I'm not saying that will fix it. Just a troubleshooting step.
This is the advantage consoles will always have over PCs - the hardware is always the same so issues like this that affect users differently based on any number of factors (hardware, antivirus, etc.) aren't there.
Hopefully Capcom prioritizes figuring out that the common factor here is and fixes it. The RE Engine seems to be here to stay so they definitely have a reason to keep an eye on it going forward.

I feel like the Denuvo-less exe improved it, but it's not entirely fixed. Atleast the audio seems to be synced properly now.

Not really when the two games running on the same engine exhibit the exact same issues. I never played RE7, but I've read that people experienced the same thing.
The Denuvo-free exe did nothing for me as far as freezing goes. Cut-scenes still go out of sync if they freeze/stutter.
Crossing my fingers but this seems like the exact sort of thing that'd be thrown my way to ruin my life. I built my machine with DMC5's spec sheet in mind, this would be awful.
I'll test it tonight. Praying desperately I don't encounter issues.

Might try this if I run into problems. I have a dual solid/hard disk setup. I'll gladly use some of my solid state space if it fixes problems.
Just curious. Have you shared your feedback on the Steam bug reporting thread? They may be able to take a look at it and address it if they can replicate the issue. DXdiag log output here would be super useful.

Fuuuuuck it stutters a lot worse when you play as V. I could handle this as long as gameplay remained fine, but this shit ain't fine. The game just went into single digits framerate for like 10 seconds just for going into the van. I'm gonna end up buying this thing again on PS4.
I did with RE2.
Whatever settings you pick doesn't matter.
I've read of people having the same issue on an SSD.

This is not a PC exclusive problem, it also happened to me on Xbox One X. They will probably patch that.
Op this game runs at a sexy 75fps on my 1060/ i5 6500.
It's not like REmake 2 with the stuttering when running through doors

Oh man this uh, really sucks haha. I'm kinda new with buying big release games on PC, but I went for it because a friend linked me the cdkeys offer. This stuttering is real awful and I'm guessing I'm not gonna get a refund for this. Not really sure what to do really, I don't really want to spend more money buying the same videogame again on PS4.
Yeah this uh... Sucks! I dunno. I guess I should've went with my gut and waited. I was kinda iffy after what I heard about MH but I'd only heard good things about the RE Engine.

Can we offer a tangible and possible solution instead of just putting together instead of doing a coverall statement? This just seems like such a emotional and gut response. I had issues and with some tweaks here and there I got it fixed. I would recommend doing the following.
I would also make sure you're using HBAO+ if you're on an nVidia GPU since the game defaults to HDAO. Use HDAO for ATI cards.

And others are reporting they have issues with one of them but not the other. That's the nature of PC gaming.
Hey I just wanted to update since I got tagged in this thread in the opening first. In other thread on here there's a guide on how to download the non denuvo .exe from steam and so far it seems to have completely fixed my stuttering and gave me a way more stable framerate.
Much appreciated.
As you can imagine, the biggest challenge with these type of issues, given its apparent impact on small number of users, is dev/QA's inability to reproduce it. They only have a finite number of PC configuration, and even with the same hardware setup, there's no guarantee they'll be able to replicate the problem. Either way, a DXDiag log should give devs a good indication on the test environment which may potentially lead to discovering the core issue.
Is the stuttering and freezing issue also on PS4? I played RE2 on the Pro but never experienced anything like that.
It can be hacked in via exe editing but it's poor still. Cutscenes and HUD is broke AF with it
Edit:Actually fuck that it's fixed now

Are you kidding me? I thought after RE2 had it DMC5 having it was a guarantee.
There is unofficial ultrawide fix: https://steamcommunity.com/app/601150/discussions/0/1839063537790448728/?ctp=7

Really? lol lucky you! That exe made no difference to me. The mission intro and outro cut-scenes have gotten particularly terrible.
My game's installed on an SSD and it produces stutter and audio desync on some cutscenes. I only played up to mission 2 though.
I have a core i7 7700 HQ paired with a GTX 1080. RE 2 ran beautifully with excellent frame pacing. I am also using a g sync panel. My CPU is actually not that fast relative what you could get on desktop these days. I doubt it's CPU related bottleneck. It's probably related to hardware configurations and drivers. I think all people experiencing the issue should manage to find what;s common among them and isolate it. It's easier said then done for sure.
If this is an issue RE2 also had, would playing the RE2 demo be a decent test of whether this will happen to you?
Damn that sucks thanks for the heads up. I had stuttering in RE2 but was able to withstand since it was a survivor horror game but I would not like it one bit in DMCV.
You guys with this RE Engine problem should use this thread to post your specs. Maybe we'll notice a trend.
I have microstutter on any game I play via Steam. Origin, Epic, Uplay, UWP or natively installed games are smooth as silk. Been frustrated by this for months now!
