xbox game bar, cant open group chat in lfg posts party

Hmm. That’s strange. The text chat only and voice required are both options on the Xbox as well.

So does this mean that on Xbox there is gather party only?

Because if that were true then opening a group chat from the pc then would let this feature be accessible on Xbox and it has nothing to do with if u select voice required or text chat only at all.

It’s just a simple click. Accept atleast one person to the post as confirmed and open group chat on the Xbox game bar. And then u can head over to Xbox add more people as confirmed and directly see even the lfg post from there as well (the chat from open group chat), which is all meant for Xbox.

And it will also add all people to the group chat regardless of their privacy settings meaning they won’t be “invited to group chat” but directly added, since they joined the post with “I’m interested”

All this leads to further clarity that this is merely oversight or wantedly the team doing these features have been lazy in the dev department by not making the simple open group chat clickable on Xbox. Perhaps something to do with the new Xbox game Bar and Xbox pc app.

But the point is, that after that single click on the pc Xbox game bar “open group chat” everything works fine on Xbox from there onwards for that post… until it expires.

Glad to know it’s not actually there on Xbox, and we have to turn on pc simply to do a one click painstaking option which should be on the xbox itself… maybe the xbox mobile app too.

Wish they had it in the old mobile app version which still works today for doing lfg posts and such. A PC is just so cumbersome.

As for gather party it invites everyone to party and then if u leave the party it withdraws anyone who joins and leaves and sometimes even closes the lfg post.

P.S. Seems like a lot to be fixed in the networking department but nothing will be for atleast another half decade from now. Yet they make us pay for Xbox live gold. SMH poor service preferring PC for a simple option click.

Because LFG is only FOR LOOKING FOR GROUp thr rules for lfg is quite clear

Nothing else

Not solicitation or trading or clans

Anything else has to be done in party chat or private chat

Anything not.related to LFG has to be done privately or in group chat NOT PUBLIC posts

Hi Joao,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. I'd be happy to answer that.

Unfortunately there isn't a way to directly stream to YouTube, Twitch, or Mixer directly from the Xbox Game Bar. Broadcasting directly to Mixer was once on the Xbox Game Bar but was recently removed to make way for more requested features the team has planned
for the Xbox Game Bar in the future. You can broadcast to Mixer or any other platform from Windows 10 devices using third-party tools such as OBS, Streamlabs, and XSplit and continue to use Xbox Game Bar
for screen capture and sharing, controlling your music and audio settings, finding new teammates with Looking for Group (LFG), and chatting with Xbox friends across Xbox console, mobile, and PC.

I hope this helps!

Well if you read the screen when you are posting thr lfg it clearly states LOOKING FOR GROUp only

https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/help/friends-social-activity/friends-groups/using-looking-for-group

Think of Looking for Group as a “players wanted” bulletin board—a way to help you find players in the Xbox community with similar goals and interests. Browse posts created by the Xbox community and respond to those that appeal to you. Or, try creating your own post—when enough people are interested, gather them into your party and go play.

Plus, it's easy to take your Looking for Group activities with you across your devices—it's as simple as using Looking for Group in Game Bar and continuing where you left off on your Xbox console, or the other way around.

If you check forums there are loads of people who get suspended for the same thing correctly

Mmorpgs have specific channels for things like clans trade etc

You have to do trades in private or party chat or trade channels NOT lfg

You will also get suspended by devs if you break chat rules governing channels this isn't new

From the code of conduct

https://www.xbox.com/en-CA/legal/community-standards

• Sell in-game content outside of official in-game mechanisms and stores
  
• Trade game lessons for Xbox gift cards or other compensation
  

LFG is NOT ingame

Games tend to have their own lfg or matchmaking channels though but usually they will have their own trade channels
