When a Friend Joins, it says "{FRIEND_NAME}" has joined you instead of their name

Visuals:


Direct Links: This has happened in every game. Note: It happens once. If a friend joins you, it will show up as {FRIEND_NAME} has joined you. If they leave, and rejoin, it will say their actual display name or username instead of “{FRIEND_NAME}”.
System Information: Intel Core i7-10510U

Expected behavior

Expected Behavior: When a friend joins, it should say their actual name, let’s use Roblox as an example.

If Roblox joined me, and we were friends, I would’ve expected it to say “Roblox has joined you”. but what it actually says is “{FRIEND_NAME} has joined you.”.

Steps to Reproduce:

  • Join a game.
  • Wait for it to load, like 5-10 seconds after the “Joining Server” screen goes away.
  • Have a friend join the game.
