Team instancing problems

Whenever I am in a team, and try to do an exploration zone like the Arucanis Arm, it often times puts me and my teammates in different instances. Then we have to coordinate and find an instance with sufficient room before we can all join and be on the same page.

This is very irritating. And it doesn't stop there. In order to make it into the same actual system to explore, we have found that it is pretty much necessary to time our scans so that they are simultaneous. There should be a button that allows the second person to join a system that the first discovers. I have seen it before in the lower right hand of the screen, but today it seems not to want to appear.

Also, load times are terrible.

But when I can play the game, and it is working (not as often as I'd like), it is fantastic. Which only makes the bugs more frustrating :/.

    Am also having the same issues:

    1) Teammates don't end up in the same system instance;

    2) Once one teammate explores an anomoly, they disappear into the instance and we become separated.

    Stumbled over the same problem.

    Small sollution is as follows:

    If you are on the same starmap and one of your mates jumps into an explorable system, fly to another cluster and then there will show up a button on the right hand side near bottom that stated that you can join whatever system your mate is in.

    Be carefull as if you friends are in different systems you may join up the wrong system, so make sure the systemname stated is the systemname you wanne join. (Systemname can be seen by hovering the mouse over your friend on the left side)


    As for the long loading times; this is a serverissue (It only happens when the server will have to be restarted in the next few minutes or it might crash. That is my experience.)
