It's not a promise when you know you cant do it.
Yes, he reported falsely on that one mechanism.
The fact he reported falsely is a proof that he hasn't tried by himself the current alpha and hasn't verified his informations.
The fact you don't see any false information is also a proof that you don't know the real state of the alpha.
You really should call him out on this egregious act. It would be wrong to lie to and/or mislead potential and existing backers, no matter the source.

So basically they scammed people?
With a single 1 universe massive player battles promise? yeah I suppose
Nope, all the others too. Say where are those cannot distinguish human from NPC's NPCs? Where are 110 systems? Where is PVP slider? And so on and on? Are those all unrealisable dreams?
You know where is BDSSE? Is it even technically possible to realise in promised scale at all?
In development! It's Alpha for a reason. Not really broken until they either slap a 1.0 label on it or CIG goes bankrupt. But the server meshing thing was a lie from the start, can't defy physics.
To me it is like "I promise to you mr. Fusion home fusion powerplant, just give me your money" And deliver some firewood and lighter....Hey it produces energy....It's an alpha 
And what else is going to be a lie?
Its quite a well written piece outlining the problems of SC having such a massive scope. Comments are reasonable as well.
I think its very true that some backers think if you have 1 feature and add a second feature it takes the work of adding 2 features. But every feature has to integrate with every other, so the work of 2 becomes 3, the work of 3 becomes 6, and so on. It becomes an exponential nightmare of features.
And many backers do not understand this, and many backers know it, but choose to ignore it, because they don't want their dreams destroyed. So they keep excusing CIG and giving them more time and money.
But all the time and the money in the world will never allow CIG to make the game as advertised to backers.
At least not with foreseeable technology.
Rarely. Doesn't stop backers telling people who tell them that that they are just haters and FUDsters though.
And generally, the bigger the dreams, the less likely they are to get what they think they are getting.
And no game out there has bigger dreams than SC.
Its a disaster just waiting to happen.
Except for those who are in so deep that if CIG released the game as it is and they would praise CR for his vision and declare SC to be the best game ever.
Let's see what % of SC on release matches the backers dreams.
Basically CIG's problem though is that besides fan dreams they promised many things that will be in foreseeable future just dreams. It is one thing for fans to dream such and such, and whole another to developer basically sell those dreams and then fail to deliver.
Ah, the usual MO. Find something you can find criticism with, use it to dismiss the whole article.
Well done!
Players can fly Idrises now?
Of course, you know what the question really was, although it was badly phrased. And you know the answer as well. No, the space battles that were promised by CIG are not there, and most likely, never will be.
