Multiplayer has been great. Group flights.

Me and a mate have been flying all day in the SR22 doing different VFR areas in Queensland Australia.  Loving this sim even more!

Post up some group flight pictures!

I'm loving it, too. We've done a bunch of bush flying in Alaska and Norway. It's been a blast.

Is wake turbulence modeled?

I got my friend in group then tried to fly in same area but could not see each other, anyone know how this happened?

you need to be on same server..

Can you talk to each other without the need for TeamSpeak or similar?

No VoIP is included in the game so you have to use an external app of some sort. TS or Discord for instance.

What about the xBox Game Bar Voice Chat? I have not tried Multiplayer with anyone yet but if I turn my mic on inside the xBox Game Bar it shows it recording my voice inputs. As long as you add a friend through that, that should work yeah?

I’ve never used it but it sounds eminently appropriate. I’ll investigate tomorrow.

Excellent. I’ll stay tuned.  I don’t have a mic at present so can’t test myself.

As mentioned, need to be on the same server, selected by clicking your profile picture at the top of the screen.

Was there ant any mention about a shared sky's type feature like in fsx? As in having a co pilot?

Really hope shared cockpit will come! Would love to fly with a friend in this type of mode.

Im only having issues with multiplayer, not to mention a huge disappointment with the lack of shared cockpit and voice. Although we forced the same server and joined groups I only appear as “offline” to my friend (yet he sees me). When it works its brief, with either him, me or both disappearing frequently. Sad that it was released in this state.
