Groups meeting still seems broken to me. If the group creator is online and you join his group it seems to work better than if I join the group and the group creator joins second

Interesting - sounds like a specific circumstance. Stick it in a ticket and we can take a look. IF anyone else has observed a similar issue then that would be useful to know as well. Thanks!

Yes, it's never felt very reliable to me. We have 5 of us in a group I created, and it rarely works straight away. We need to jump about or exit/start to seemingly get into the same instance.

I think after the latest patch we expected the issues to disappear, but noticed them straight after its release. Can't comment on if its better/worse, only that it's still not 100%.

There's some more changes in the next server update (hopefully tomorrow) which is intended to allow better connections for groups on busy servers.

i find that in my group meeting other players has improved but im still finding that players will eventually just stop being in the same instance, ive seen this a few times and it normally happens when both ships drop from SC into a station instance,

I'm having instancing issues in my private group as well, and it's just me and one other person in it! At some point we drop out of supercruise or FSD somewhere, and can't get back in the same instance no matter what we try.

sounds like the same thing, me and a buddy had no issues meeting up in the private group and it worked for around 2 hours before he disapeared, and like you couldnt get back into the same instance.

I believe the launcher is telling fibs - ignore it.

Update - Make sure you have the latest installer - http://hosting.zaonce.net/elite/Client-Installer.exe

The message will then go away.

Quick question: I don't have the latest installer, and I get this message as well, yet my game (V1.06) seems to run fine. What would compel me to do the installer update for the umpteenth time? I'm starting to think you should look into auto-updating this part as well, or if it's not that vital after all; change some version setting somewhere so these messages don't show up unless an update is REQUIRED.

Meh..

It's not mandatory so it doesn't matter if you have it or not for now.

That's interesting, it was the 2 hour mark where it began giving us the problem as well.
