Hows the multiplayer?

Do people still play this online? Does it take long to find a match?

Multiplayer isn't well populated, sadly. It wasn't very popular even right after release, so make no hopes here.
But singleplayer is fantastic! Non-stop chaos and destruction, explosions everywhere, collapsing buildings and bridges, it's a hell of a fun. Demons of the Badlands DLC is even better in a way, as it provides greatly increased cap for satchel charges and concentrates on cool stuff right from the start. I've bought it for 10$ in winter, and it's totally worth the money.

The introduction videos for multiplayer made me hot for playing it online. After a few minutes i finally found a server (seems like it was the only one at this time). It then took another two minutes until enough players have joined. The game started but in a matter of a few moments i was kicked, disconected or whatever. I guess if you want multiplayer you might be disappointed.

The singleplayer mode is very sweat tho, one of the best "open world" shooters there is! Dont miss it!

Ah, I was kinda hoping for a multiplayer, Not really interested in buying another single player game right now.

I've gotten into a multiplayer game fine always when I wanted. Takes max. 10 minutes at worst case. Guess I'm just lucky.

I got into a couple of matches pretty quickly, but the lag was unbearable and made it completely unenjoyable. I'll just stick to the single player.

Up to 10 minutes can be a pretty long wait...
