Just saw that Mutiplayer is being worked on for the pre-alpha release. It's interesting to say the least. Firstly because it is the $500,000 Kickstarter goal, and secondly because despite my initial reaction that was "Why would they do that so early or even at all?!" it might be actually a good idea. To be honest, I'm not much of a multiplayer person myself but if the rest of the game provides a solid experience it might go the way DayZ did. I would like to know if devs are just toying around with the idea of adding multiplayer so early, trying to futureproof or actually including the multiplayer in Pre-Alpha?

Valid questions! :)
Currently Multiplayer is in development for the pre-alpha aiming for a COOP/Server Based experience. However, a singple-player/offline remains the priority and core of the early versions.
The Kickstarter Multiplayer goal is a persistant online experience with 100s or more players in the same server and locations. This requires dedicated server hosting and scaling as well as different development methods and optimizations. If the game continues to grow and recieves enough support, this goal will still be pursued.
