Multiplayer games allow you to play co-operatively with other players around the world. In these cases, one player is 'hosting' the game (server), while other players 'join' (clients). The game will decide on the best host, so you don't need to worry about that (however, in some cases you might want to force a partcicular computer to act as a host, read below for how to achieve this).
Multiplayer games are have special characteristics. If your computer is the host, the game is pretty much the same as a solo mission. If you're the client, however, you should keep in mind that the quality of your game depends on the quality of your network connection to the host.
The game is really being played on the host, not your computer. Anything you do on your computer must be transferred to the host. This takes time. Roughly speaking, the further away the server is geographically, the longer it will take for your commands to reach it. This creates a delay (or lag) before anything you do takes effect. This lag is known as your ping and is measured in thousandths of a second (milliseconds, or ms).
When you play a network game, your ping is cycled in the network area (top-right of your screen, as you're playing). Pings up to 100 ms are fine, you probably won't even notice the slight delay. If your ping is 100-250 ms, the delay will be noticeable, but you'll quickly get used to it and you'll easily be able to play. Pings above 250 ms will negatively affect your game experience, as you won't be able to react in time.

In high-ping situations, you should focus on the position of the green reticle (which responds instantly to your mouse movements), and not the spaceship itself. The green reticle always shows the final position of the spaceship, even though it might take a while before it actually gets there.

In network games, you might also notice some artifacts as you're playing, like passing through enemies, getting killed by something you didn't touch etc. The worse/slower your network connection is to the server, the more of these glitches you'll experience. Although annoying, these are normal for a network game and there's nothing that can you can do to fix them.
