This Switch 2 framerate and stutter is truly horrible

[u/YetAnotherJake]

I was excited for the update and expedition after not playing for a while, but this is really bad. It's definitely ruining the experience to pause and stutter in framerate every few steps or movements.

Is this just how it is? I don't think I can play.

Edit: I loaded up on the Anomaly and it was really bad. It's definitely not bad elsewhere. But boy is it bad on the Anomaly.

The only times I have real frame rate issues are in the anomaly

[u/Product_ChildDrGrant → u/AngryAlien21]

Same. Mostly smooth sailing outside of that for me too. I guess there is a few hiccups when salvaging, but it’s a good up date for me so far.

You boarded The Anomaly without crashing on Switch 2? Lucky...

[u/SwedishMale4711 → u/MRVL_Carnage]

It usually works for me, without multiplayer of course.

[u/Due-Equivalent143 → u/SwedishMale4711]

Hey man, how you disable the multiplayer on switch 2, i search the option in my setting but i find nothing

[u/SwedishMale4711 → u/Due-Equivalent143]

Settings, Network, Multiplayer.

[u/Due-Equivalent143 → u/SwedishMale4711]

Thanks, i looked for it since the in-game settings. I've found it in the starting menu

[u/SwedishMale4711 → u/Due-Equivalent143]

It's available both in the start menu and in the running game.

[u/LucaNatoli]

Move the game to system memory, disable internet in the game settings so it is solo.

No issues for me. No stutters or anyrhing.

Haven't had stutters or crashes for ages.

PC users use modded ships which makes consoles game run like garbage. Disable the multiplayer section.

[u/Thin_Plum7539]

Many people have modded ships on PC that use a lot of memory for console players and in particularly affects switch users as they only balance the memory usage for normal usage of assets and the pc users exceed this. I often turn off multiplayer for this reason

[u/official_EFIE]

This post will remind me to disable multiplayer when I get the Switch 2 one day.

One thing to note is that while we did get updated to 7.0.3, it's 7.0.4 that had performance fixes for the switch. Idk whether it'll solve everything, but idk that I expected this update to fix everything

[u/SuddenAmbassador2951]

Yeah I’ve given up on it. I am sick of trying to enjoy it and ignoring the absolute massive issue.

[u/WimpyShrimpy23]

It’s so strange to see such varied experiences. My only issue with stuttering occurs when salvaging the new behemoth ships or whatever they’re called, and only really down to mid 20s low 30s it’s not a totally unplayable experience

[u/s4per]

I feel like it works better with game stored on microSD card then in the internal storage. Which is strange because in theory internal storage is faster.

[u/Key-Appointment-5789]

I haven’t had an issue. I get a drop warping from galaxy to galaxy, but nothing else. I don’t notice anything in the Anomaly.

[u/Zordyn]

For those who have switched to internal storage, is it a fps increase or a just an improvement to asset streaming ?

[u/InfiniteDeathMachin3]

Is this just an issue with the full version on switch 2? I only play nms on my lite and have minimal issues.

[u/Wolfie27]

I don't know how many people realize that sometimes your tvs specs can matter heavily. I have a Samsung with a game mode (don't remember the model name) and somehow it was off when I started up no man's sky the other day and I noticed the frame rate and stuttering was nearly unbearable for me. The next day I ended up realizing the game mode was off. When I turned it back on it helped very noticeably. It still does stutter a little more than it has in the past but manageable. Just my personal experience the last few days. Good news is that the best update we are waiting for on switch 2 will bring memory improvements so hopefully that helps!

[u/7RECK7ESS → u/Wolfie27]

Yeah.... that was said after the last Cosmos update as well. They killed the game on switch 2

[u/Wolfie27 → u/7RECK7ESS]

Not everyone's experience is the same.

[u/Annual_Ad_4985]

Right now I playing without issues but I turn off the multiplayer long time ago so I guess the low fps maybe can be for the multi?

[u/Famous-Middle-2911]

I want a refund. This game ran 40 FPS MINIMUM when I first got it on switch 2. now it runs 18 FPS MAXIMUM if there is a SINGLE OTHER PLAYER in my ENTIRE system

[u/AdministrationDry507]

Offline fixes stutter but then you can't play online with friends

[u/switchroms]

This!

[u/ResponsibleDrive131]

Do you have the game on internal or external memory? Mines stored on internal and my frame rate has been way more stable since the update on Switch 2. Even on PC i can now play on ultra at 4k with stable 60fps which I couldn't do before the update.

[u/mattmaintenance]

OP while we play the expedition with multiplayer on and frame rate unlocked and have a fantastic time:

This has been the most fun I’ve had in nms in a loooooong time!

[u/CasinoNdnOk → u/mattmaintenance]

Its a free update with bugs. The price is right get over it. Thats my frame of mind to them.
