Yeah here too since the SU4 release. I wonder that nobody that has been mentioned so far

I also have experienced this with the Southeast Asia and East USA servers. When I am unable to see anyone on the map (e.g.; when joining a streamed group flight) I exit the flight to the main menu and try again. SU4 has been much better than SU3, but there are still some multiplayer issues. (mid-spec PC, MS Store, MS 2024, 1 Gbps fiber).

Same here. Since SU4, the multiplayer aircraft (nameplates) come and go and come and go… :confused: PC MS Store - West European Server

This happened to me and my friends yesterday and today. West Europe servers - we disappearing evry 2-3 minutes, not possible to flight with group. We changed to North Europe with no problem.

It’s so annoying. I had no trouble before su4 but I always fly military in the UK. And the west Europe server just keeps dropping out if I switch to north Europe everything is fine there. Switching to West USA also drops out. So for me it’s only the west servers. But someone above mentioned it’s also on the south east Asia and east USA server. I hope they fix this soon :folded_hands:t2: :crossed_fingers:t2:

Hey it happened also in SU3. We would have to switch servers. Pretty lame it happens when we do massive group flights.

Today, the multiplayer aircraft appear and disappear (for a few minutes). Even when I change the server in the settings during flight. (North Europe, West Europe, East America, Asia). It makes no difference :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

I’m seeing this in busy scenery and MP areas like LA on East US server but not over quieter areas like PHX during the same session. Detailed scenery but very few MP.

Flying on Xbox with a friend on PC and MP disappears and reappears virtually the same time for both of us. Maybe 1 or 2 seconds difference.

Flew a group flight on the SE Asia server with up to 20 MP earlier in the day without the issue but this was over NZ with very little detailed scenery.

In FS24 I am having online user appearing disappearing constantly with the east US server these days, the US west server works ok always. I had this also many months ago with the EU west server in FS24 also.

Same thing happen here on EAST USA server. Multiplayer aircraft/nameplates keep disappearing and re appears after couples seconds/minutes.

Also, aircraft data that I don’t own is transparent.
Generic aircraft are not functioning properly in multiplayer.

Yes Ive noticed the same thing. If you don’t own the aircraft the Sim picks nothing all you see is a name tag.

We tried a group flight on USA East yesterday and everyone kept dropping out. It made flying together impossible.

Yep group flights are suffering. The only stable server is north Europe I’ve never had that one vanish yet.

We’ve had no issues on three different group flights on SE Asia with up to 30+ players. It’s important not to choose servers in a currently busy time zone for groups. Use servers wherever other folks are sleeping.

This is a screenshot from this morning. It’s been a year and it’s still like this. When will it get normal? Is matching really that difficult?

Also, when I’m on a server far from where I live, aircraft still disappear and reappear.

Yep we use se Asia for group flights. But when solo I fly in UK mainly and switch to w Europe and even the amount of multiplayer traffic has reduced significantly.
