Since 1.06 my playing group friends have stopped seeing the friends list in the main menu showing online friends. I.e. everyone is offline eventhough we know they are not.

Also, we are having more issues than usual being matched in the same instances.

Anyone having similar issues?

Hah I hadn't really noticed it but yes!

It does show local commanders only in the friends list, and they don't show at all in the menu.

Yep. I'm having the same issues.

When I log on initially, it shows as everyone on my friends list as offline - even when I know they are playing.

Also, It used to show friends when I activated coms, now theres nothing.

Glad it's not just me

One step forward and 2 steps back. Who is running things, Paula Abdul and a Cartoon Cat? What is their bug fixing strategy, exactly - let them roam wild and hope they all kill each other off?

Confirmed.

Would also add to it that I have been unable to use voice or text comms with my friends for quite some time.

Another bug: When I drop out of warp to a luxury trader, they always disapear after like a second, and the waypoint starts moving away at several km/s

Yep, I got the friends-list bug last night.

I was, however, 450 LY from the nearest living soul. If there was ever a good time to lose my friends list, this was it! :D

You can probably add me to the list. No one showing on my list, although possible no one was online.

Won't be able to confirm if it is a bug till they fix the bug so I can ask other players if it was a bug, but this bug doesn't really affect me anyway, seeing as I'm affected by the other bug that means that I can't communicate with anyone on my friends list, unless I randomly bump into them somewhere in the 400 billion stars. When they fix both bugs, I'll let you know if I was in fact affected by the new bug.


I take some solace in the belief that the new bug was probably caused by them trying to fix the old bug, so hopefully soon all bugs in the comms will be fixed, and then I'll be able to complain on the forums about all the people on my friends list constantly interupting my game by wanting to communicate with me.

No issues here, but I did do a full re-install of the game last night after replacing my SSD.

le sigh.
Could FD please just ditch the netcode and start again from scratch?
Hint: Client/Server. It just works.

Also, you can afford it.

I have the same problem (and others in our group too). I tried rebooting, validating the game files, and opening my firewall entirely but nothing helped.
