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.

They also need to fix the fact that you can't see notifications of your friends getting online..

It's definitely a nice change seeing Microsoft taking customer advice, it's probably just a front for now and won't continue but it would be nice if they kept on listening :)

TTgUNLIMITED I'm happy to see Microsoft fixing a lot of these problems and little things the community doesn't like and aren't just ignoring us like previous consoles.


I guess it's pretty good to see Microsoft doing things such as this, hopefully they keep it up

I'm glad Microsoft are recognizing this.

The party system sends me all over the place, I get lost with it.

Lia The party system on the 360 was pretty flawless, I don't see why they would want to change it.

Don't fix things which aren't broken, is a good motto to follow.


It could always be improved, hopefully this change is for the better

Great motto to follow.
Although, if things can be upgraded via new technology, companies will take that risk.

The party system could really use some work, although they are going in the right direction with it.
