Murudai:I think closed by design here just means that they never designed Community Games to have these little features that real games have. It wasn't intended, so nothing needs to be changed.
Or simply the first iteration of the software architecture used to enable these games to run for any consumers, without the need for executables to be "signed" by Microsoft or the need for a CC account, causes these things to happen (like all games being launched through the same hidden "game" called XNA Game Studio Connect).
And maybe they'll change this in the future, and just require some extra work for it (or maybe some inter-department work), which they couldn't do
yet.
Even Pheel said above that it doesn't mean anything, because they simply moved it into their internal database.
Have a little faith and patience. Sure, it's probably not going to get solved with the 3.1 update, but that doesn't mean it won't ever get solved.
