That works then lol

With the improved matching in the new patch I can confirm it still dosnt work lol. I have spent an hour logging on and off , SC'ing in and out with a mate trying to get into the same instance. Nothing . We are in a private group of about 10 of us and can we find each other . No lol . Oh well never mind wait until the next patch .

Come on FD get it sorted please, much as it makes us laugh everytime it dosnt work its getting a bit boreing now . :D

thanck the magical nature of the p2p interface what braben thinks an mmo is....rolls eyes
 
Another 1 1/2 hours and still cant meet up in the same sector . This is so close to a , So.. post
 
another 50 minutes and 3 of us trying in the same area all friends all on private group . Nothing ..... We have come to the conclusion Elite Dangerous is an "o" as in online and thats about it today . Playig with IP's now to see if we can get some kind of multiplayer.

Would FD like to pay us a wage for this work?
 
It could also be router related, firewall / port forwarding / upnp.

If you guys have different NAT types etc, it can make it difficult to connect over p2p, if at all.
uPNP imo, is rubbish on some routers, so manually forwarding / setting up ports can make a huge difference.

Here is a thread with some info on setting a port etc in the config, it may help.

At the moment grouped play does not work, if you are in a group with someone you spawn in different instances

tested for an hour with a mate


the moment we both switched to open play we were in the same instance

Just go into online mode. Worked for me and a friend instantly. It looks like private groups are bugged :/


Exactly this
 
Me and a mate had a private group in which we could not see each other for the past 2 days ( since the patch 104). The existing group was one I created a while ago. My mate created a new private group and it seems we could see each other again. That is not say that the system does not need fixing, it needs it badly. I hate the way it seems you have to jump to a new system when you both log on so that you can see each other. You dont just appear in the same area as each other immediately.
 
The multiplayer aspect of this game need some serious work.

On the bright side, me and a friend got to see eachother finally tonight after my friend disconnected and then re-launched the client. Last patch did some good with regards to grouping players together.

With upcoming wings, one can hope that people in the same wing (aka clan/guild) get on the same server/instance at the very least.
