No Man’s Sky Foundation Update bugs

Game crashes when players select the game mode

If you’re experiencing this issue, delete all the mod-files and the game should start correctly.

The game is crashing every time I get in my ship in normal mode, and crashes after about 1 min in creative mode or when I get in my ship.

The Z key always brings up the menu

Gamers report that using the Z key can be quite tricky on AZERTY keyboards. The majority of players use the Z key to walk, but it always brings up the construction menu when pressed. Fans already requested Hello Games to remap this key.

I have a problem. Everythime i press ‘z’ to walk something pops up and it is really annoying, how do I dissable it it isnt in the controls tab or anything?

The best solution is to simply switch from AZERTY to QWERTY:

Low FPS rate issues

Players also complain that the FPS rate is extremely low, causing flickering and other graphics issues. Other gamers confirm that the situation can get even worse, and report getting even 1 FPS on the loading screen.

20fps at 4k now… Or 60fps at 1440p but everything flickers… Still a waste of time and money

Apparently, particular actions can also trigger low FPS rate issues. For example, many gamers complain that when they enter the ship, the FPS rate drastically drops to even 5 FPS.

Despite these issues, No Man’s Sky Foundation Update received a warm welcome from gamers. The general opinion is that the update has significantly improved the gaming experience by making the game more stable and more interesting.
