Friend invites on Xbox
How to invite
- Start Deadside on your Xbox.
- Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
- Navigate to People > Friends and select your friend.
- Choose Invite > Invite to my game to send them a game invite.
Troubleshooting Invite Issues
If your friend doesn’t receive the invite or can't join:
- Check NAT Type: Both you and your friend should have an Open NAT type. A Moderate or Strict NAT can block multiplayer connections.
- Adjust Privacy Settings:
- Go to Profile & System > Settings > Account > Privacy & Online Safety > Xbox Privacy.
- Select View details & customize > Communication & multiplayer.
- Ensure settings allow you to join games and communicate with others.
If issues persist
Please provide as many details as possible, including potential reproduction steps, the Gamertags and server you’re on, and—if available—a video or screenshot demonstrating the problem.
Report a bug
E.g., glitches, unintended behavior, visual errors, or broken mechanics.
