These are the options for multiplayer
I don't know if turning ambient multiplayer off will also get rid of other people's claimed planets. Honestly I haven't seen any yet. You just see other people in the space anomaly station, I haven't run into anyone else yet outside it. Co-op works a treat though.
I'm already 40 hours into the Beyond update. I started a new save yet using my old 80 hour save from launch for resources for my 10 year old. It's not hard to collect them yourselves but kids are lazy nowadays :) It's actually a lot easier to make money than at launch, but also a lot more to spend the various currencies on.
I'm surprised the game is still getting hate, it was the same with DriveClub. I didn't hesitate one second to buy another copy of the game for co-op play, fully deserved imo. There are plenty 60 dollar (currently 90 in Canada) games I get bored of after a few hours.... This game continues to wow me, on flat tv as well as in VR. Yes, it's still buggy, glitchy, drops frames, loses co-op connection, flat out crashes (about once every 10 hours so far) but what other game lets you drill a hole into the ground to shelter from a fire storm to continue tunneling to your next objective.
It's all busy work or grinding in the end, yet also very relaxing, much less stressful and less tedious than Elite Dangerous. Elite Dangerous is a lot more realistic, which also means one earth like planet in 50 systems which you still can't land on, while most airless planets (you can land on) are simple barren rock worlds with much less variation in 'structures'. The draw of ED is the realistic version of the galaxy, the draw of NMS is something different in every system. In ED you set course for a nebula to explore and the sky changes depending on where you are in the galaxy while in NMS travel seems rather pointless. The sky is the star in ED, the planets are the star in NMS.
You always keep waiting for Star Citizen :) I'm going to find a Korvax scientist!
