Hi guys,
After the patch is online, could you give feedback if it actually fixed something?

Fix for matchmaking in private groups.
.
As we are the largest private group can i ask you guys to keep an eye out for fellow commanders and report back.
would like to know if as a whole players find that they are able to see other players more often, im sure this wont be something you will notice but given a week im hoping that seeing other players will be the norm.
.
cheers mobius.
Cheers
Wolf

I shall have to be more careful and look out for hollow icons after this update today. I've not been checking this whilst collecting bounties at the Codorain nav beacon.

I saw my first hollow box the other night bounty hunting at a Nav in Ethegreze. I was so excited, I tried to open comm and say hi but Astra was being disobedient and refused to comply. By the time I *shudders* manually (ICK, as if) opened comms he/she had already jumped away.
Ah well, next time.

Apparently none of my friends are online (even pressing 2 doesn't open the friends list). I can't believe this is true. Is it just me?

Same for me.
Looks like we have now got a solo offline game

Same with the empty friends list, but on a better note I saw and talked to a hollow blip, only my second such meeting since hmmm ever.

Yup, I got that tonight as well, thought it was just me.

On the bright side, I had a rendez-vous with a friend and we had no problem to see each other in game. We jumped systems, got in and out of SC, went bounty hunting together in a resource extraction site, and we never lost each other.

That sounds very promising, I also met a player in SC, Mr Walter Wall, we had a quick chat and went our seperate ways.

Successful meet up between Cmdr de Carabas and I last night. The update seems to work very well in this regard.
