Parties

  • PC – Fixed an issue with online presence not updating properly which prevented players from joining and getting into games as a party. For example, if a player is invited to join a party but is already in one, you will receive a message stating ‘<Player Name> is already in a party. We expect more improvements in the next update as well.
  • Fixed an issue where parties dropped out after a match ended and were unintentionally sent back to the main menu
  • Added a visual indicator that someone in a party cannot be invited to another party
  • PC – If you are in a match and accept a party invite, you will now be sent to the main menu to join the party
  • Fixed an issue where a party member was not brought into the game with the game leader when using the server browser
  • Accepting a party invite while in-game will no longer cover the disconnects prompt with the controls screen
  • The queue timer will no longer continue to countdown if ownership is transferred from the party leader after starting a matchmaking session
  • The party member icon will no longer disappear from the scoreboard after being in a party while loading another session from a prior one
