124-01 Game Invitations
| Scenario | Severity | Platform |
|---|---|---|
| No current scenario. | Not Relevant (-4) | |
| No current scenario. | Very Minor (1) | |
| No current scenario. | Minor (2) | |
| The title does not immediately transition the user into a game session, but does so when the user returns to the main menu. The title does not inform the user that they must return to the main menu in order to enter the multiplayer session. | Moderate (6) | Xbox One, Xbox Series |
| The title does not complete an invite sent via in-game. The invited user remains in the same game area. Severity does not differ with or without messaging/notifications. | Critical (12) | Xbox One, Xbox Series |
| The title takes the user to the main menu when accepting an invite sent via in-game and no messaging/notifications are displayed to help the user to join the game session. | Critical (12) | Xbox One, Xbox Series |
| A multiplayer game does not support the ability to send an invite via in-game functionality where expected (generally where the 'Join' option is available in the Friends list, see test case 064-1-2) (if the correct terminology for an invitation is not used, log under XR-022) | Catastrophic (22) | Xbox One, Xbox Series |
Notes
- This XR is for the implementation of in-game invites, not invites sent via the Friends list.
- Cross-platform PC <-> Xbox invitations may be optionally supported by the title.
- Timing: Wait until publisher/legal screens start appearing during the initial boot before accepting an invite. Accepting an invite is not expected to work before this point (during the splash screen).
- Game design may dictate that pre-conditions are met before allowing multiplayer (e.g. playing a tutorial first).
- Game design may allow in game server region switching. The invite must work regardless.
- If the title takes the user to the main menu when accepting a game invite, the title must provide sufficient messaging/notifications to help the user enter the game session. For example, the game boots to IIS where a 'Press A' prompt is displayed. This is only valid if there is an option to then proceed into the game session without requiring a new invite.
- Suggested probability of 4. Increase/decrease where it is felt appropriate to do so (e.g. depending on game area/mode)
