I did not know this, spent most of last night only seeing my mates in supercruise, a wake scanner would in theory put us in the same 'instance' of the area being jumped to.
Smart, now enjoy some tasty rep points for you both.

That's it! "cant put this game down"
Even though you find the multiplayer lacking some grace, you are still playing away! Well done!
There are others who have just started with 6 mins or 2 hours who just post and ragequit.
Since there is two of you, one of you can be the ungainly and slow trader but heavily laden.
The other can be the agile fighter with the mix of weaponry to quickly put down any threats large or small.
Yes, it is lacking something in the ease with which you can pair up and share missions and loot, but heck those are really niceities as the underlying framework is just about there to truly ply the space lanes.
Clear Ether Commander!
OrientalHero Out.
Can confirm that I also heard that Wings are in progress and will arrive early next year.
I guess they want to release that feature without nerfed and not ready features. I'm fine with that.

There is no direct credit transfer yet, the devs are trying to figure out a way to implement it without enabling exploits and 'gold sellers'.
You can give them the equivalent value in cargo though, the jettison(abandon) option means that it shouldn't be marked as stolen so they can just stroll into the nearest station and claim their reward.

You don't necessarily need a wake scanner to end up in the same instance, just make sure they are in your friends list and you drop out at their low energy wake.
You can only drop out at low energy wakes as they are the super cruise wakes, high energy wakes are for hyperspace. You need a wake scanner for those but all they do is give you the destination of ship that left it.
If you're talking to your friend via comms they an just tell you which system they went to instead.
I can confirm that the Low Energy FSD wakes can definitely be used without a wake scanner. Also, you can follow NPCs this way too, not just friends.
I actually have a habit that when a pirate tries to interdict me, I shake the interdict so that he gets dropped out of SC and suffers the overheat and slight systems damage that results, then I immediately turn around and home in on his Low Energy FSD wake to go and have a word with the pirate about his poor manners and choice of target. They always seem somewhat surprised to see me.....

Where is it quoted as a MMO?

Erm, I think the key word there are is "Technically" there are no claims this is an MMO in the real meaning of that term
It was immoral and unethical for FD to release this game in this state. It needed another 6 mths, but they wanted the money from xmas sales and to stay ahead of Star Citizen. I think most players will quit and might come back if it gets better, but this game will never touch the fanatical following EVE has who have played for yrs and yrs and bringing in 70 MILLION a yr unless FD adds way, WAY, more content and develops a multiplayer version.

I think you got the wrong forum, this game is B2P and has no monthly fee, you are talking like you think it's a p2P title...
You have indeed waited long enough! Whats a few months more for solid group play... I dont think FD are unethical or anything other than developers wanting to make a great game and yeah I agree thats its better to have a finished feature.
If I am honest just about to plan a mission in elite! Cheers for all the help guys.
