Ok, I was told the other day that party chat was not an option when playing Dark Souls. That even trying to do so will kick you from the game. But I did a quick Google and located some comment on private chat still being possible?

Had the opportunity to test it out today. A guy summoned me for boss battle assist and proceeded to send me a chat invite. I was able to accept it without getting kicked. Only issue I had was that I couldn't hear him on mic but he messaged me and said he could hear me. He sent a voice message and I picked up his audio in the message so curious as to why I wasn't able to pick him up during chat?

So basically asking... has anyone else tried private chat (not party chat) on Xbox 360 and have a viable communication with other player while playing co-op? It appears like it was working to a point but I simply couldn't discern if it was a game issue or player issue for me not being able to hear him while he was able to hear me? I would have liked to have switched up the situation and invited him to chat to see if it was the invitee that is not able to hear voice over mic or some other issue? He moved on before being able to field test further.
