    Your party chat system is shocking!!


    I've avoided topics like this as I thought I'd just let MS fix in when they were ready, but enough is enough now. The party chat system is incredibly stupid and ridiculous. On the 360 it was simple, yet very very effective. It did the job and it did it very
    very well without problems. It let everyone socialise together whilst playing whatever game they so chose to play, and was easy to get into or make private if you wished for it.

    But now... A load of tripe!!

    I'm in a party with a friend, we're both playing assassins creed black flag. I've decided to play MP, he wishes to stay on SP. Low and behold, I cannot play MP without the party members. I select quick match, I can't launch until party members have joined.
    Even if they decline the invite I still have to wait for them. The only option is I have to leave the party so I can find a game. It's an awful set up with the current parties. I apologise for this thread, I know there must be hundreds complaining about the
    same thing so for joining that band wagon I'm sorry. I will let you give me some grief and give me some abuse, I just had to vent.

    :)

    Error code: 0x89231806 Blocking Party chat

    I'm getting this exact issue. Why does the XBOX One Party chat suffer so many issues? It's amazing how on the XBOX 360 there wasn't this many problems with the party chat. Now with the XBOX One it's been nothing but issues with the Party chat since the
    system was released.

    My NAT = OPEN

    This is on the XBOX ONE

    0X89231806 your network settings are blocking party chat.

    I'm also tired of Microsoft constantly suggesting to do a hard reset on the system. It seems to be their answer to everything. Have a problem? Hard reset your system.

    PLEASE FIX THE PARTY CHAT SYSTEM

    Not recieving invites or messages

    Same has been happening to friends of mine and party chat has been going seven kinds of wacky for weeks. Shocking considering we pay for it. Bunch of charlatans.

  4. Your party chat system is shocking!!

    I find it even more shocking how this stuff can go through R&D and MS think this is an improvement. Don't get me started with how the Friends list works now either.

    I'm not a regular poster on these forums but I have been visiting more often since I got my Xbox one just to see if there are any news on updates to the system, and I couldn't agree more, the party System is not fit for purpose in my opinion

  7. I figured this out late last night with a party of 8 people. It wouldn't allow me to play Killer Instinct, Peggle 2, Dead Rising 3, Ryse, Assassin's Creed 4, or Battlefield 4 while in the party because there were too many people in the party. The only 1
    that would work was Forza Motorsport 5 because it allows for up to 16 players, but that then led to the 2nd problem - nobody in the party wanted to play FM5. For some reason, even though the others didn't want to play, I STILL couldn't go into matchmaking
    & play on my own as long as I was in the party. It truly is a ridiculous setup. I support most of what the console's developers have done, but definitely not that. I would just like to ask them: "What were you thinking!?"

    Ah I'm glad you all agree. I assumed I would of gotten the traditional abuse and troll accusations thrown at me which would normally happen in a forum when someone has a negative view on something. But everything you guys have said is spot on!! It's shocking
    the way it works. It's taken the element of socialising out of the xbox one. Surely an error though because I find it hard to believe that MS would intentionally place this on the console?

  9. Yep, I agree with the OP. I expect this feature to be fixed as updates roll out.

  10. Yeah i heard MS is releasing a patch on a lot of the "social" features with the xbox 1 are expected to be fix to make them easier to access like party chat im sure and other things like friends/ recent players list to access it with ease ...cuzz right now
    i hate the way the friends list is now i just want to press 1 button and my friends tab pull up...don't want to click on multiple things to see what friends are online which i find rather annoying esp if your in the middle of a game online.

  11. There will be a update planned sometime this or next month Microsoft is taking a lot of feedbacks everyday. I forgot the name of the site but it's set up real nice and theres so much feedback it's ridiculous and microsoft actually took notice up it and is
    looking into it a lot of the feedbacks are actually related to many of your above. Also the update for live streaming for twitch will or should be up by june I heard.

    This is what happens when people who arent regular gamers design your console and ui. This was a big rumor on neogaf that peoe dismissed as bs and turned out to be true. J allard and those who designed the 360 where gamers and had a passion for their work
    and had a general idea of what gamers would want because its something they themselves would want. Ms got rid of them and the console has been on a steady decline since.

    What? I have been in parties where 1 person goes to matchmaking and the rest remain in single player and it has all worked fine.

    Why do I have to turn the party chat on when I join? Just silly. The whole interface needs a huge update. Party, friends list, recent players, ect. Why do I have to choose only friends online? No one wants to look at all of their offline friends right
    when they get online. I can't wait until all of this gets fixed.

    Marc Whitten has been around since the original Xbox and is the lead guy on the OS. So not true. The UI just works differently to the 360 and is just having some growing pains. The 360 dash was nothing flash when it came out. The blades were horrible. Sure
    certain thing s arent working like they should but they are trying something different,after all this is a NEW console, its not the 360 certain things from 360 cant simply be brought over to a UI that works differently. I once Beta Tested the dash when they
    bought on Twitter and Facebook they were totally horrible and pointless. They are now gone as updates have passed and can be accessed via the browser now anyway in there full glory. The X1 UI will go the same, expect some experimentation before it becomes
    great.
