Push to talk and Party chat

  • Hi all,
    I'm playing on Xbox and I'm usually in a party chat with a friend while playing, is there a way to talk on game chat while in a party just as is on PC?
    My friend playing on PC can just push the Push to talk button and he can talk in the game chat right away.
    On Xbox I have to open the guide and switch the audio to Game chat when needed and then back to party chat... that's annoying.

    Hope there's a way!
    Thanks!
    Ciao

    Unfortunately not, on the Xbox build of the game you are silo'd into either Game or Party chat the two cannot cross over.

    Thanks for your quick reply!
    That's a pity.
    It's an Xbox limit or the Sot build for Xbox?

    That's an XBox thing...it's like that since Party exists

  • It has been an old legacy thing, weirdly I have heard some developers have been getting around this though - but not sure how!

    Actually it works somehow with Borderlands 3 since the crossplay update, since you had to log into "Shift"...somehow "Shift" has it's own chat I guess...but as an XBox player you just can be heard through this while in the party, but can't hear others

  • One recommendation is that you can use your phone or a nearby PC even for party chat, and keep yourself in game chat with push to talk.

    Not ideal, but something to consider.

  • @odyssee-mit-tee Please don't bring arguments into other peoples threads... it's not fair!

    Take it to the seas or to DMs - But please keep it civil and out of other peoples threads!
