    So.. i can't join MP game if i'm in a party...


    Smooth MS real smooth. If I'm in a party (I am now) and we're both playing AC4, but him on SP and me wanting to play MP, it turns out I cannot play MP without him joining me. I try quick match and I cannot search or launch without inviting the party to the
    game. This is annoying for me who just wants a quick game and also annoying for my friend who wants to play his SP game without getting spammed with invites from me because I've no idea how to play the game on my own. The only way it can be done is if I leave
    the party. So much for the xboxone being a social tool. The party chat system is a load of crap. If it's not broken then why fix it.

  2. Xbox one party system is terrible!!!

    This is how dumb your system is. I can join a friends party but not his game. Then once I'm in his party I can't join his game. I then can't invite him to my game if he's already in my party?

    Figure it out bozos

    Xbox one - q&a

    Anyone know anything about the Party messages ?
    Was giving BF4 & COD a go last night for MP and everytime I joined MP it said do you want to take your party into this game or change games....I had not even started a Party ?
    Had a look in settings and could not see anything.

    Also how do you do something while its searching for a game, is it just snap or can you go back to home and do what you want and then switch to the MP game ?

  4. So.. i can't join MP game if i'm in a party...

    Not sure about the not joining games, but with your friend getting a game invite, it does it with all games. It auto invites everyone in the party. I think MS is trying to make it easier to invite friends to games by just auto inviting you so you don't have
    to go through your friend list and invite ppl to games and have the chance of them not being able to join. Plus, if you have 4 friends in your party, it'll only search for games that have 4 slots available. Maybe because you have 2 ppl in the party it can't
    find a game with 2 avail slots. That's just an guess though. I haven't had that problem but it does suck. Hopefully another issue MS will iron out in an update

    xbox one is amazing

    Since day 1 I've been loving my X1 but its far from perfect.

    Party system is still annoying even if it is less so now I'm used to it.

    I hate how the party system assumes everyone in party wants to join same game and how you have to exit party to start a mp game then join party again.

    Otherwise I love what this system brings to consoles with the ability to continue your game on start up and the first switching between apps. The game DVR is brilliant too and Upload Studio makes editing so easy.

    Sure its not the most powerful but its powerful enough to bring great looking games and offers so much more anyway.

    Can't wait to see where MS takes it!!

    Can not connect/join friends game. Session is no longer available . What to do ?

    Sorry, I didnt see anything about a party, just that he was trying to join a frind's game.

    I dont do zombies, but in mp I frequently join friends without partying up first and it can be tough to do.
