After everything that we've done on our end, I really don't think that this is an isolated problem with our hardware. The fact that a review by a professional journalism website mentions the stutter indicates to me that it's a software-related bug with this particular game, which perhaps only manifests on some displays. The PS3 version had a similar issue with input lag: some displays had it, others didn't. Enough people have complained about it that the only likely solution is for Farsight to discover how to reproduce the effect, find the cause, and patch it.I've spent enough time troubleshooting this that it really has come down to little more than a guessing game. I've reinstalled the game six times total, and it's accomplished nothing. I really don't want to continue fiddling with the hard drive when there is zero evidence that is the cause, for fear of creating more problems.If Stone was experiencing the exact the same stutter as Cyborg and I, and he resolved it by redownloading, but we haven't, then perhaps there is an issue with the way that TPA downloads updates and additional content, which conflicts with some networks and corrupts the data. After reinstalling again, I noticed that TPA doesn't download the table packs through the PS4 UI, but through the game itself. In other words, TPA seems to download content independently from the UI, and therefore perhaps bypasses the download integrity check.Like I've said before, I've personally witnessed this on two completely different setups, mine and friend's. I have an LG LCD; he has a Samsung LCD. My console was manufactured in October, his in September. Our PS4s are from two completely separate batches, our displays are from two completely different manufacturers, and we both have this problem. We've done almost everything suggested on this thread, and nothing has worked as of yet. The only device that we share is the router; we both have a Motorola SBG6580. I connect through Wi-Fi; he connects through LAN. We both experience the stutter, though, so my last guess is that perhaps there really is a conflict with the way TPA handles downloads and some home networks. We don't get this problem with ANY other PS4 game, so it HAS to be specific to this game.I wish that I had more ideas, but I'm at a loss. I've spent the past week troubleshooting this glitch, and after an utterly fruitless endeavor, I'm worn out. To be completely frank, I really don't even care anymore. All this work isn't worth the upset for one single game. I sincerely hope that Farsight eventually unearths the glitch and resolves it, but as for my part, there isn't much more that I can do. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to troubleshooting the stutter, but it's in Farsight's hands now. Perhaps some lucky fellow will solve the riddle and post a detailed step-by-step procedure that eliminates the stutter once and for all. I'm not holding my breath, though.
