This thread is hilarious.
People taking Sean Murray's intentionally vague and cryptic tweets/statements as gospel on one side and people seemingly feeling offended and lied to on the other.
Here's my take on this:
- It's Sean Murray's duty to ensure the game sells as many copies as possible. Saying that multiplayer interaction is 'possible but highly unlikely' or 'the servers are borked right now, you guys are pummeling them' sell more copies than saying 'there is no multiplayer'.
- All comments from Hello Games are intentionally vage to keep the illusion of multiplayer being a thing going.
- There is no multiplayer interaction beyond sharing discoveries at the moment.
- 'Proper' multiplayer will be introduced in the future. It was probably meant to be in the game at launch but was pushed back for reasons.
Keep on GAFing, NeoGAF.
I think most people left posting here fall in the middle of your scale.
