Xbox One party system improvements in the works

4.5
Microsoft is working on a number of improvements to Xbox One's party system.

Responding to suggestions on Reddit that party invites and chat features are more confusing and laborious to use than their Xbox 360 equivalents, Xbox Live director of programming Larry 'Major Nelson' Hyrb said on Monday:

"I had a meeting today about much of this and I can say that things will get better. I can't offer a timeline of a list of what till be addressed first, but we are aware of the issue and things will get better."

A link to Xbox Feedback, a consumer website listing a number of issues and suggestions to improve the Xbox One user experience, has also been passed along to the relevant team at Microsoft, Hyrb said recently.

Having launched in 13 markets on November 22, Xbox One sales topped one million units in less than 24 hours, Microsoft claimed on Saturday.

kitypurry You CAN play with friends not in the same party. You CAN play with friends when other friends are in the same party. It's not the same system and nothing is broken. It's just done differently.


How everytime I want to play FIFA or Dead Rising with my friend I have to invite them to a party or make a new one because it doesn't let me..
