Xbox One Xbox One party chat issues will 'get better,' says Major Nelson

[KN1GHTMARE]

Microsoft is aware of problems with the Xbox One party chat service, Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb confirmed in a post on Reddit, adding that these issues will "get better."

A number of Xbox One owners are reporting problems while attempting to access the party chat service, which allows players to chat with up to seven friends in a single lobby while they each play separate games.

"Had a meeting today about much of this and I can say that things will get better," wrote Hryb. "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."

Some Xbox One owners are stating they can connect to Xbox Live but the connection with other friends doesn't appear successful. According to the Xbox Support forums, this problem appears to result in being unable to join or host multiplayer games.

Good to see that Microsoft is listening; this news comes along with the fact that Major Nelson has shown the Reddit list of wanted to improvements to officials at Microsoft. This is great news for fans and hopefully MSFT will be quick to implement some changes. For more information on the Reddit story, click here: Polygon

What are your thoughts on Microsoft's responsiveness?

I think it's pretty good that they're listening and attempting to fix the problems that have been brought to their attention, but I also wonder why some of these problems exist in the first place. Who dropped the ball in the testing department, that kind of thing.

I agree. A lot of companies aren't quick to act on issues. Hopefully all will be resolved soon.

Not had a really big issue with parties. I just hope they enable you to send voice messages.... What the hell were they thinking???

Eh. Their not the fastest when it comes to responding and correcting issues but I always appreciate it when a company admits fault and goes about correcting it. Though I may be blinded a bit because of my personal dislike for Major Nelson. I'm glad their trying to fix the party issue though, I can imagine how annoyed people must be.
