Like actual net code, which the devs falsely claimed was in at launch?
The game has had real multiplayer for a long time, bud
It wasn't in when they said "oh it's just so big you won't find anyone"
There needs to be a full story for people who forgot / weren't interested in the game. The devs said there is multiplayer and you can meet but you won't since the game is so large. A day after release or so, two players "met". The planet had a different time - day for one, night for other. They couldn't see each other. There was no interaction possible, there just wasn't any netcode at that point. Of course the devs then ran with the story screaming "omg people already met up! Amazing!".
It wasn't, but it was added I think back in 2017 or 18, so at least 6 years being able to play multiplayer. Not that it really matters, aside from base building, the game doesn't feel better when played with a buddy or a rando.
