Ain't that a network issue then? If low details don't get rid of the stuttering, it can only be that. Or a problem with your friend's network.

That would mean the game is just crappy at networking since I've played L4D2, Portal2 and many other co-op games with the same friend while I hosted or he hosted and we had no such problems :/ No lag, no stuttering.
EA isn't doing a very good job on keeping me on Origin =)

Might be the case then. Though I'm pretty sure Dead Space is a little bit more demanding in term of network, considering the potentially larger amount of information to share between players.
Make sure both of you are not having undesired network leechers (if like me you have many users on the same router, sometimes there's a lot of local packet-sharing, slowing the whole network for everybody).

I'm not sure how to do what you're suggesting o.O
We're in diferent cities, diferent ISP's and diferent connection types =) so yeah, there's alot going on.
I for one have a cable going through a switch then I dunno. My friend has a modem and pretty limited upload speeds... but I don't see how DS3 has more demanding network than L4D2.
Hmm, I'll try something with my laptop, but I doubt it'll give me some good results since it's got a low-end video card...

What I meant was a basic: make sure there aren't 5 other people using your connection at the same time as you do. That can create lag issues even in the most undemanding game there is.

Nobody else is using the cable provided by the ISP and neither is the modem of my friend.
I've tested with my laptop and my friend's account on a LAN and I have no more stuttering, so yeah, it's a network issue... but it's more of a game issue because it shouldn't affect players like that since it's not lag, it's constant stuttering, a thing which I didn't have in any other game.
Well, I guess there's nothing else I can do about this...

Hi, so I've played Dead Space 3 single-player since I bought it and it runs great on max details (but 1024x768 res due to backup monitor, long story).
Anyway, a friend bought the bundle too and got to play co-op but it seems I have stuttering issues.
While he hosts, I have lag, everything teleports, so I must host... but when I host it's like time jumps some miliseconds and it's kinda annoying, it is playable but it ruins the experience.
He doesn't have lag while I host and doesn't have these stutters, I don't know if he had them while he hosted because he hosted briefly since I couldn't play with that lag xD
I tried using lowest quality and the stuttering is exacly the same, the issue is still there, and only happens on co-op, on singleplayer it runs just fine.
Anyone else have the same issue ?
