c'mon dude you know you can't.. three operating systems running parallel.. to one. the ps4 is admittedly more powerful with graphics, but the X1's design lets it do things the PS4 simply can't do. Not because it doesn't have the horsepower, just that the horses are running a slighlty different race. |
No really, what is stopping pulling a video chat while in a lobby? There is no technical impediment.
XBone's "mutitasking" allows switching out to a totally independent application,
but what you're talking about is linked to the game, involving the exact same players waiting in the same game lobby,
i.e. it would tie into the game code, and be just as easily achieved via an in-game v-chat feature.
Exporting the IP address of the other players to a separate v-chat app is pointless, you can do it in app just as well or better.
"Multitasking" is great when you want to allow combining/switching between ARBITRARY programs not inherently related to each other.
If you know what programs you want to use (near) simultaneously, and they are tightly tied together, m-tasking doesn't offer much value.
