Multiplayer Invites and Party Chat

Multiplayer Invites and Party Chat
Q: How do I invite friends to my multiplayer game?
Issue: You must invite friends via the Xbox One Party feature.
Solution:

Set up your multiplayer game
Go to the Party app on the console dashboard and create a party
Invite your friends to the Party first. A Party can only hold 8 people (not 60) at a time.
Go back to the multiplayer game and invite your friends from the Party to join.
Now, since you can only have 8 people in a Party and can only invite people to a game from a Party, you'll at first only be able to invite 7 to the game. To get the full field of 16 in your game, you will need another person to set up another Party and invite 7 new people to it, then have them to to the game and invite the Party members.

Yeah this is a bit of a pain now but not really anyway around it.

updates will come to fix this issue...it's only day 4, bound to have issues/teething problems as always.

Yeah that's what I figured. I'm still yet to receive my Forza Rewards cars but I'm not worrying too much because it looks like most people are yet to get theirs and I dare say they have a fair bit on trying to sort a lot of teething problems out.

You can have 32 in a party but only 8 mics at a time at the moment. Not too bad. U can still set lobbys and jump into game chat
