Good evening, fellow pilots.
I started out on Flight Sim when I was 9 (MSFS95).
For the past 5 years however, I haven’t flown at all as I didn’t want to invest in a new gaming PC.
I have an Xbox One (which I used solely for Netflix), but recently learned I could play MSFS on it through their Beta Cloud Gaming service.
It’s been absolutely amazing, and I can’t believe how far this game/sim has come since its early days.
Everything has worked exactly as expected on the sim until yesterday.
I was flying with a couple friends, and all of a sudden they dissapeared from the sky right in front of me.
I tried restarting the game, the system, switching servers and coming back, and applying AI traffic back to real time traffic. But no luck.
I can see nameplates still, but they seem to be all from “real” flights - Not live players (Posting a screenshot for reference).
So, could anyone help me see my friends in the sky again?
I’m absolutely stumped at this point, and any input is appreciated.
I apologize if this is the wrong part of the forum to post my issue in. This is my first post here, and I’m trying my best to learn the different categories here. Thanks for understanding.
Hello @Kr0niko9207,
Welcome to the forums!
I have moved your topic into Community Support for assistance.
The Bug Reporting category is for reporting confirmed bugs using the provided template that can be replicated by others. 
Reading your post, it would seem your issue is Multiplayer has gone missing, not Real-Time Online Traffic.
The former is your connection with real human players and the latter is traffic represented by actual aircraft traffic.
You may wish to alter the title of your thread to see if it snares other posts that might solve your issue.
That said, you need to examine the Multiplayer aspects of the sim and not the traffic aspects.
Check that you are all on the same server and check that multiplayer is turned on.
I’d also do a search here in the forums for related issues. I recall reading something in the past where people had lost the ability to connect with their friends, but I don’t recall the solutions.
Additionally, I don’t know how the cloud version of the sim works with all this, as I’ve not utilized it, however I do run the sim on a Series X.
Thank you so much for the warm welcom, reply, and advice. As well as the clarification between traffic and MP.
Hope you’re having a great day.
