Hey Guyz ..!! I came across to fixed all Dead Space 3 problems like -- CHAPTER 9 (Snow truck E doesn't appear ,which let us to jump from that) , CHAPTER 13 (Boss fight- Snow Bug always break free and keep attacking, it must splitt into 2 pieces) etc...
So back on point how ?
:-- Set your game graphics to 1024*768 , vsync OFF , Windowed fullscreen , quality low. APPLY
:-- Now, PRESS Window button on your pc/laptop keypad , Unhide your folder and option (Control Panel).
:-- Now, Go to C:/user/User name/ appdata/local,EA games/Dead space3/system
(4) :-- Now, (its an Important part**) CORRECT all options from true to false, and set all digits 2 to 1 , and window.height to 480 and window.width to 640..... SAVE IT.
(5) :-- Now, click dead space 3 icon , now your game will resume up
:-- turning on the harpoon generator pressing [F] continuously for 3-4 times , lure snow bug to the harpoons(laser area) , then go towards the (whatever you call that rotator box or something else) PRESS [F] continuosly for 15-20 times . then the snow bug might escape from that 1 time but do again this time it will gonna cut into 2 pieces.....
revert your game graphics setting after save when you successfully pass chapter 13 :: from game menu itself..
DO THESE INSTRUCTIONS WHENEVER YOU GOT STUCK, DUE TO GAME PROBLEM

Nope, still stuffed. Come on EA, this is a major issue. The game stops at this point halfway through.

Pressing the 'F' button super rapidly is a non starter for many of us, and I would like to see the dip* QC people achieve a solution this way. Just how fast are we supposed to have these paroxysms? Sort it out.
