well the shitty Source engine is back to its old tricks again. there was an update a few months ago that finally fixed the stuttering in HL2 for most people including me. unfortunately Sin Emerence is based of the old stutter codebase. the game is really to annoying to play smoothly for me and plenty of others.

Ritual had this to say in Steam forums: "We developed "SiN Episodes: Emergence" based off of the February 2005 version of Source. We're currently working on integrating the newest codebase.

If a level is stuttering for you, can you try reloading a save game from earlier in the level and see if the stutter still occurs?"
 
They must of seen the stuttering while developing and play testing the game. So why the hell did they think they can get away with releasing it to the public?
 
No stuttering for me at all. And for the record, I didnt get any in HL2, or any other game/mod based off of it.

Me neither. I have seen HL2 on 3 computers and have never seen stuttering.

what kinda rig and settings are you running it on though?
it really does not have much to do with my rig. this stutter issue went on for a over a year for HL2. some people tried everything. some things helped but most made no difference. the update a few months ago eliminated 99.99% of the problem for most people including me. the problem is crappy Source code. Ritual said they will be upgrading the code but who knows how long that will take. :(

be very happy because there are thousands of people that had this problem even though other games such as Doom3 and Far Cry would play just fine on their computers. ;)
 
They fixed it in HL2 eh? I'll have to reinstall it and try it again. I was never able to play it because of the damn stuttering.

dont be an ass. some people with $3000 machines had the problem. HL2 is famous for the sound stutter. ;)

I think the stuttering is caused by people with cpus with under 512kb of l2 catch on the amd side, my old computer didn't stutter with a XP3200+ but does with a Sempy64@2.4Ghz (only on light flickering areas though), my X2-3800+ plays threw it perfectly though.

It could also be codecs, I just know it hasn't bothered me much even on my old computer.
