With ALL the absolutely incredible things Sony has done / created for the PlayStation community this update has made the ease of use not so easy anymore. I unlinked my PSN and Xbox accounts from my Activision ID, just have Battlenet linked now and I now show as online for my PS4 friends and no problems joining each others party at all last night. The group owner can remove members from the group. I have been playing this game since beta with an open-moderate NAT type on PS4. For a person whos been using this platform for years I can gladly say that this update is dog *****. As it does it it will bring up the notification saying: "Voice Chats may be recorded for moderation. By the way, you could always record audio, but there was a way to opt out. You can also select [Party] on the quick menu to start or join a party. They have to tell you. I haven't even had time to look but hopefully Sony will roll this back and fix it. I used to be able to boot up my PS4 pro, click on party, scroll down my friends list & invite multiple people at ONCE! if its set to no one may join, thats your problem. Like I said, if you have any plans to murder anyone, do not discuss it on a PSN chat and you will be fine. Basically their only product is Playstation though. Don't think I've ever used this feature but boy oh boy, am I angry about this change! @LiamCroft Kudos for having the right background. If you need to re-enable it, follow the steps below: I will check it for mistakes. I want to talk in a party with him but we don’t want someone listening to our conversations on Sony’s servers. This has to be the worst update to a PlayStation console yet. If this is a routing issue between the 2 players, then they will not be able to join each others games. Nowadays, he can be found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. Have the most toxic and offensive conversations possible. Just to send chat invites? Just proves how out of touch Sony is with its users. Completely baffled. The subsidiary is called Sony Interactive Entertainment and they have two legal corporate entities for Japan and America. Happened every second day. Before update 8.00, you could simply start a party by opening up your friends list and popping off invites to your buddies. I figured out that the problem is the fact that Teredo is required to play, but I shouldn't need Teredo cause I have IPV6 on my connection. Now it looks like they are recording as well, so I don't think there is an opt out feature. The system is just as bad on PS5. It's really irritating to navigate, it wastes a lot of time, it lags the PS4 when you're trying to do this in some games, it's just all around terrible. @AdamNovice I was in beta and noone liked the change, there was no feedback forum for this beta or anyway at all to report issues. It's actually a huge roadblock for investigating certain crimes for us, like restraining order violations, but I believe it's a good rule regardless. Join a party that's already started. However, the moment you veer off that path, problems start to arise. Revert it back & i’ll forget this little misstep ever happened.

By joining, you agree to be recorded", @Horizon_Rover you're the type to ask the teacher for more homework, My ps4 friends list are not showing up friend its indicate number 4 to 5.

You better believe a detective will confiscate your console and apply for a warrant to search it if the conditions are met. That seems pretty bad. I'm not a fan of this system.Before the update I had the list system if I needed to make a party quickly from a set group of friends.Also, that notification saying that I agree to have my voice chat recorded by using party chat feels wrong. Hopefully they can incorporate both methods in a new update. @MFTWrecks nah you got it wrong. I would never allow anyone to listen in on my conversations and record them. @Jagskill Bonkers. If someone is not in a text chat, can they not join or see that voice chat? Itâs happened to everyone. So annoying. When you livestream directly from the console that would show a blue screen for your viewers every time you adding someone to the private party. Select (Party) from the function screen to view a list of the parties you can join. You would have to create yet another message group purely to send them an invite, when before you could simply list the party as public and they'd be able to join by themselves.

Select Create Party. @LiliumCobra I don't know about you but this doesn't sit right with me at all. It's weird, but it's who we are culturally - we are very sensitive about it for some reason. My son has this friend in Ireland that he can barely play with online due to the time difference. Now, this change is fine if you have a dedicated group of people you play with and that line-up never changes. It's even tougher to test the feature properly right now anyway because friends lists aren't loading in. To take part you need to have linked your PSN and Epic Games Store accounts, which you can do by going to the store webpage, clicking Sign In (sign out if you already are in with your Epic account) then clicking the PlayStation logo. The problem seems to be affecting PC and PS4 sessions, along ⦠Use (Party) to voice chat with your Friends and other players. When you start a party you then have to invite people into your party. Of course a big company like Sony probably knows something I don't, since apparently this has been going on since the PS4 era. Weird. Plz fix asap.

I always read stuff like this with mild bemusement. There was already a way to record your voice over gameplay and if you're on a games console thats the only time you should need or want to hear your own voice. [CDATA[ Not sure what people are complaining about. I guess that means that any ***** can just join my party and troll me and my friends and there's nothing I can do about it. I dont do online multiplayer, people are in too big of a rush all of the time. It works perfect for me as I don’t need to invite anyone anymore. Though you can form a party with up to three other players (for a total of four players), you canât bring your followers along when youâre in a group with other people, no matter the size of your party. Not as a catch-all line in the TOS you see once. The suck thing in all of this is that this was one of those forced updates too.

Am I the only one experiencing party chat failure? I dont think sony had any intention of changing things hence why we couldn't report back. This might be why Nintendo just avoids private chat alltogether, though that arguably pushes children who want to talk to their friends onto other platforms Nintendo has no control over. Doesn't bother me so no not All ps4 owners WORLDWIDE some that like others not bothered. PlayStation has responded to privacy concerns that Sony is recording party voice chats following today's PS4 update. Please use Russian. I was 1 of the people who received the beta but I didn't go for it, the reason being is because I would have had no way to talk with my friends during the beta. PlayStation Network (PSN) allows for online gaming on the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable and PlayStation Vita game consoles. When you guys can't fix the problem you just send me a survey asking how ea service was. But those who are in the group are free to join whenever they want. I'm impressed. This update is horrible. Can't join party chat or games on PC Hi, I've got a problem with the Xbox App and all of the multiplayer Xbox Games on PC: I can't join any of my friends neither in game nor in party chat. So i installed the update and yep friends list failed to load and error code blah,blah,blah...so installing yet another big warzone update (copying takes the biscuit) and then my friends list is now working perfectly so maybe it take a while to synch up?

All parties are private now which is very handy. This state, like a lot of states, is called a "two party state", meaning both parties have to agree to being recorded during a conversation for it to be legal and/or usable in court.

While voice chatting with other players in the party, you can each play the same game, or use Share Play to share your screen and enjoy gameplay together.

With American media corporations getting increasingly idealistic and nosy into other people's business and morals at the same time. Xbox gold is a joke compared to Sonys PS+ and the games they give you. Might be time to jump ship back to microsoft. @Crimszon Had to choose a text chat group to make a voice chat? I actually find this update good. But basically if you play with same people one group will do the job and never need to invite anyone again. Im really trying to think of a practical reason why they would add this feature. Same here. i hate in-game chat and especially when that game has no option to mute others... so i make a private party and change it to prioritize Game audio... now i can not do that, i record videos for Youtube and Game Chat gets recorded. Ive had so many times my friends would have a chat private from me just because they forgot to set it on public and id miss out on important discussions all because sony had to change the previous party chat functions.While individual message party invites seem annoying im glad they changed the private party chats back to what it used to be. They have operations in the US, and whether that is a subsidiary I honestly don't know but will take your word for it that it is. Let's hope they fix this quickly. Their little "By joining, you agree to be recorded"" would be laughed away in court. @UnlimitedSevens I just double checked. It's only a matter of time before the 'we can spy on your private interactions' feature get's abused. As soon as you try to start a party it is made brutally clear that you can't start an invite only session anymore. Check PSN status. This means if I have a group of 4 buddies one night, I need to make a group? @AskPlayStation @PlayStation are we having party chat problems? I knew that you could record audio already but you could just hop on party settings and turn it off but like you said now that they've gone out of their way to moderate you themselves it looks like thats out the window. Since they bought into Epic we most likely see Playstation exclusives also on Epic game store. The fact they have a US base of operations is interesting because a police officer in the US could petition a judge for a subpoena for your chat record if you were being investigated for a crime (and probable cause existed to do so) without having to go through a federal judge, seeing as the business is local. There's nothing WORSE than being in the middle of a domination game with my buds only to be interrupted by the little british kids that my little brother enjoys playing Fortnite with lol. Today is the only day of the week that they can actually play because my son has a half of day of school. Now - you have to create the party pool only once and those who are in the group are able to join whenever they want without your assistance.

Im out. @Bad-MuthaAdebisi & it's still better than anything xbox has done. Also lets them record your voices in party chat for moderation? Majority I would imagine didnt use the party function through the beta as you couldn't actually use it with your friends unless they were in the beta. @SaltSense That makes sense then and I’ve seen a few people who were in beta saying that it was terrible as well but they didn’t really have a way of feeding that back to Sony. @Henlak- next time I'm in a party I'm gonna test this out. Sony needs to get on their A-game already. I can't think of another explanation. Added players can join parties, and they'll remain as group members after the party has ended. @UnlimitedSevens Playstation is an American subsidiary of Sony since they moved their main office to California. I probably done a terrible job at explaining it here ha. Also if you wanna talk about anything really private I suggest you use your phone or something that isn't in the Playstation eco system cause something tells me your non game related actions could effect your account if they're now actively listening to you and allowing recordings to be taken. One of the biggest changes PlayStation 4 firmware update 8.00 made earlier today was a complete overhaul of the party system. @AdamNovice Wow, just wow. Like, who did they have in the Beta?
