Hey folks, there is an issue with Epic's friend system. Epic is not offline, and this isn't an issue with Satisfactory. Epic are working on the issue.

The issue: friends not appearing in join game list, or if they are it shows that they are not in-game when they actually are

There is a truly impressive workaround for this at the moment:

  1. You and your friends open the game
  2. Minimize the game
  3. Find Epic launcher in your system tray
  4. Right-click the epic icon and click friends
  5. Unfriend all your friends (now you have the same amount of friends IRL)
  6. Re-friend them (like a touching episode of Friends)
  7. They should now appear

This is a solution that we used successfully on stream today when we tried to play The Cycle (this issue is Epic-wide). Hopefully this works for y'all.
