    Why can't my friends join my games through the party's "join game" option?


    For the past few months, my friends have said the "join game" option in the party is greyed out. We don't know why but it's only my profile that's doing this. I'm able to join their games just fine, but they can't join mine. I've already tried the manual network stuff, the power cycling, and everything else I can find. I just want to know why at this point.

    :)

    It seems they have went a step back with the party/friend system. I can't invite my friends to a game through the friends list or party and they can't join sessions. This is why I got away from sony because it was a pain.

    i cant join a party on MW3! why?!

    why can't I join a game from a friends invite? I friends cannot join from my invites, but we can all party up. I don't have elite and it was only affecting MW3.

    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

    feedback? how?

    Ugh! There's still a bug that keeps me from joining partys'. I tried joining my friends party but it kept on saying can't connect to xbox live party, same for my friends, they can't join my party's unless they reset their (turn off/turn back on) xbox.
