Expanding the Looking for Group feature #104

@eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaeeeeee

Description

Hi Devs,

As indicated in the title, It kind of bothers me that this feature is incredibly small on the pc side of things, especially for older games on the platform it can be quite a hassle to find people for Co-Op or Comp modes. But to my surprise not even half of the Gamepass for pc games use the Gamebar Looking for Group function. For many older Xbox games this was the only viable way to find people, especially for backwards compatible 360 games. I had great fun filling 12 man lobbies on otherwise dead 360 games.

I'm running into this issue, as I'm trying to play a multiplayer game in the game World War Z for Windows 10, but the issue here is that the game doesn't have a player base large enough to get 4 people searching for multiplayer at the same time. Nor has a specific community I know of that exclusively is tied into the Win 10 version as the multiplayer isn't crossplatform.

To give an example:
On the gaming site Trueachievements 100000+ people have played the Xbox version and the Win 10 version has less then 5000 total players.

So what do I hope to see, well it's easy for me to say but I would love an expansion to the looking for group feature on Gamebar to atleast include relevant gamepass for pc games (not games without multiplayer for example).

I have tried to find an community as an alternative but these are to my knowledge non-existent

I do love the gamebar feature for pc it makes parties etc a good and pleasant experience

Keep up the great work improving it
