Issues unresolved
Control issues
- Many users are reporting the mouse + keyboard controls being unresponsive.[7]
Pop-in issues
- The game has severe pop-in issues, and there are no settings for changing the render distance.[7]
Screen Tearing
- Game suffers from screen tearing in borderless mode regardless of settings. Only enabling V-Sync in fullscreen fixes the issue. Forcing V-Sync through GPU control panel has no effect.[citation needed]
Users of AMD GPUs have reported that enabling V-Sync in their GPU control panel's Global Settings solves the issue across all fullscreen types. The game's own V-Sync setting has no effect one way or the other, nor does the game's specific profile in the GPU control panel.
Issues fixed
Frame Rate Drops, Stuttering, and Hitching
| Disable Steam Overlay[8] |
|---|
|
Game not starting
| Free up at least 10 GB on the system partition[citation needed] |

Crash to Desktop
- If the game crashes to the desktop even if you meet the system requirements, your settings file may be corrupted.

- "Large Frame Drops, Texture Flickering
We are working on a fix, in the meantime try disabling Steam Overlay. Go into the properties of the game in your steam client. Under the General tab uncheck the Enable Steam Overlay option."

After rebooting my machine, i could not get past the Hello Games logo. It would start, then immediately close. I checked steam cache, deleted my savegames (backed them up first), deleted and reinstalled the game, lowered my cpu and gpu overclock, nothing worked.
I then remembered i had manualy changed the FOV, so i decided to look at the settings files under:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\No Man's Sky\Binaries\SETTINGS
Well for some reason the "GCUSERSETTINGSDATA.MXML" file was completely empty. It must have somehow got corrupted. I backed up the other 2 settings files (which looked fine when i opened them), deleted all three, and started the game. It now launches fine. I exited and replaced the two other settings i backed up and i am not launched into my save with all my settings the way they were.
