XBOXONE Party Chat Update

XBOX ONE must have the ability to set TV and BOTH (TV and Headset) on Voice Output. Mostly so we can hear teammates talking with the headset unmounted on our heads for three reasons.

First, safety is important. Some parents and relatives should know what people are saying on the microphone while their children and younger relatives are playing. Some players have a tendency to say things and if the voice is set only to the headset, then
only that player will hear what the others are saying, even if it is inappropriate. Responsible individuals can intervene by having younger players ending their session so that they can subsequently report players who are breaking the rules. To reiterate,
it gives parents, for example, a good idea of what is being said. Having this issue covered will lessen the chance of a player go through anti-bullying by a small or large degree.

Second, wearing headsets aren't always comfortable to wear. Some people have different head sizes and the headset presses hard on bigger heads and falls on smaller ones. Yes, I have a big head and no everyone is using a mic. The resolution to this problem
will keep players comfortable and the BOTH output will help players know what their teammates are saying at all times (in the case you are plugged in, but not wearing the mic).

In addition, the streaming community can also include voice output to programs like Twitch where their audience can hear other players speak. For example, a lot of players are not heard, so it appears that the player is talking to themselves. Solving this
solution will help increase viewership and it can even promote the Xbox One and communication between players.

Those are two of the biggest reasons why Microsoft should change the voice output on the Xbox One. Thanks.

P.S. I been away from the forums for a long time. To find out why... dot com my gamertag name hehehe.

Parties, chats and game invites

Party chats, and game invites are... Awful. : xboxone

I agree pretty much with this. The 360s party, chat and game invite process was fine. It's seamless integration of friends was one of the reasons I went for the One. Backwards step in my opinion.

 

Xbox One Error: [0x8923101C] Party Chat broken for a week...

Same exact problem. Main profile, can't chat but says I'm in a party constantly. Kids profile on this xboxone works fine in all functions. First profile can chat normally on my kids xboxone as does their profile. One xboxone and one profile.
