So after some time of playing amongst some friends on the Party chat, some of us get disconnected. Sometimes it's me, sometimes, it's all of us, and I am still not sure what is causing the problem...I have a theory that the party host just has an incompatible connection with some of us, while one of my friends thinks my connection might be the cause of the problem, although I'm never the host, so I don't why others would get disconnected as well. So it's a frustrating issue and I can't find any information on why it's happening. My NAT is on OPEN I believe, so I thought that would be fine. Or do you think it could be that not everyone in the party is friends with each other?

I haven't used party chat for awhile now, but I definitely recall having these problems when I was using it in a Bombing Run.

If someone else has a closed NAT that can lead to Party Chat problems.

Yes it happens to my friends and I once and a while, though it has not happened recently

every 5 min it disconnects...so annoying

I've been having them since NXE was launched as well as NXE freeze ups they need to fix it, and its solely because of network overhead NXE introduced major network usage not seen in the old blade system and there are not enough servers to handle it.

This happens all the time. I got booted 3 times from a party I was in earlier.

if everybody at least took the simple amount of steps to get their NAT to at least MODERATE, then we probobly wouldn't have this problem...

my NAT is at moderate, and I do fine... honestly, it takes, like... a couple minutes to set up your router for moderate... I don't get why everybody doesn't do it...

I always play wired for that reason. Wireless is such a hassle never worked right for me on 360.

Everything seems to be going slower lately. When I hit the guide button as I get a message it sort of stalls for a moment. The party's have been cutting out a lot as well.

It happens to everyone but a couple of my friends have it real bad!
One of my friends has it so bad that everytime he joins a party
Hes automatically kicked!

it sux for him but I like the hole party thing =]

Yeah this has been an issue for me and friends of late.  I thought it was isolated and due to bad connections of the various joiners but maybe it's more related to XBL.   Chat has even been sketchy as well, sometimes it works and sometimes it's very glitchy...I just thought it might be my mic...maybe more network related???  Maybe the wireless issue...I'm hard wired after long ago having issues and deciding to just go connected...while some of my best mates are wireless still...maybe part of the prob as well...so hard to figure(face frustration).

Nope, but it burns when I pee...so I'm claiming foul play on Microsoft's part.

We get random party chat disconnects. It woks better if you just use the private chat. Who the fuck knows why?

Happens to me to.  I think it happens to most people.

Its still happening lately
