This is a petition to add parties/lobbies to multiplayer, I support this 110%!
Console players - Please sign this!
Agreed. Would like to see lobbies and the ability to switch levels without having to re-invite everyone.
Now we actually need a petition to add a basic feature like this…Were they all doing drugs at SD or how could they forget about a lobby system?

Signed.
This isn’t nearly as shocking as shipping the game with this many bugs AND no subtitles for those hard of hearing, but it’s surely a vital part of gaming with friends on a console.
Brink has a live lobby system. You begin a game and invite your friends in to a “warm-up” session during which time a game of what is essentially Team Deathmatch is occurring and you can explore the map, change teams etc. When people ready-up, the game begins properly. They wanted to get away from a static, boring menu-type lobby. Currently this is only available on Old Skool/Competetive playlists but if feedback is good, it can be incorporated in other modes too.
