    Xbox LFG is a NIGHTMARE for PC players!


    I've tried... everything.

    The problem is that I cant play with other Xbox players on looking for group on any game (even if the game is cross-play which Xbox just loves to preach, and then makes nearly impossible for PC players), only other pc players. This effectively removes over 90% of the player base from being visible. (i am not exaggerating, there are usually at the very, very least, 300 group posts on Minecraft at the time, and on PC LFG, I only see a maximum of 25.) This is extremely aggravating, but I decided not to give up and find a few loopholes.

    Since Xbox made the very rational, well-thought out, and calculated decision to remove LFG from the Xbox app entirely, I've had to install older versions of the app. I remember this method completely working over seven months ago (when I quit because of the garbage moderation over at Xbox) but now I can't actually join a group because I always get an error. The issue is not my internet. I can see feeds, and I can send messages. I even used BlueStacks to make sure. One can make the argument that you can always just message whoever the owner of the group post is, and that's completely valid, but that significantly lowers your chances of being able to join a group.

    Two solutions to this issue:

    Add LFG to Xbox app again, so that I can play with other Xbox players on my computer or...

    ...make it so that PC players are viewing the LFG of the Xbox network and not just other PC players.

    This issue could've effortlessly been avoided if they just didn't delete LFG from the Xbox app. These are the consequences of absolutely abysmal decision making and carelessness.

    If something isn't broken. do not fix it.

    Small font size for loot pick ups

    Console players got *** on this. From many of the mechanics of the game, I can see it was made for the PC and little thought given to the ported version.

    The inventory is a nightmare.

    Cross-LFG

    You can access LFG through Xbox Game Bar on PC.

    Nice people

    I suggest you set up a lfg on xbox so it's easy to find new players.

    Looking for competitive Gears of War 4 players!!

    Rather than looking in these forums for players I would suggest creating a LFG post on your Xbox.
