Minecraft XBOX 360 can't join any game

On the Xbox 360 for Minecraft, you have to directly connect with a friend if you want to play with others. Its not like the new version on Xbox One at all.

Same here - playing EA NHL Legacy on Xbox 360 - can't send game invites. Can't send any messages on Xbox 360. Can join another person's party by going to their profile and clicking join party, but can't send or receive a party invite. Even if they are in a joinable game though, the "Join Game" option does not appear on their profile, so without game invites there's no way for us to play a game together. This is awful - any fix soon?

Good question. With the 360 version you can't join other peps worlds unless you're on someone's Xbox 360 friends list who's in the game. I guess it would be kind of cool if you're servers were open on Xbox Live. You can put the game on Open, Invite Only,
or allow friends of friends or not. Being able to pop into other peps games in multiplayer can be done in several games like Halo COD etc. But I guess with Minecraft on Xbox you're asking to join someone's server it kind of isn't the same as an open Xbox Live
game hosted lobby, that's why you can't just get randoms joining in.

Thanks,that really helped! Though, this keeps popping up. Is there any way to get around it?
