[Suggestion] New Lobby Settings Privacy Types. (Prospect Host Session Options)

33 votes

Rocket Werkz needs to give us more options:

• Open (To public so non-steam friends can join via invite and maybe a open
matchmaking for complete randoms to search for a world to join, yes I'm
fully aware of the discords LFG channel)
• Private (Closed and unjoinable by anyone even Steam friends)
• Friends Only (Joinable by anyone on steam friends list)
• Invite Only. (Only joinable by anyone you send an invite to)

With the hacking you are well aware of and apparently cannot stop make sure it's easy to ban players from your session if you set it to open matchmaking.

this is definitely needed, i like the way it was at launch where you had to be invited to someones prospect b4 you could join, the option to have a password would be a great addition

Also want to add to this that i want to see the option to change the Lobby Settings Privacy Types after the prospect is made. So in some cases you want to invite someone on to your prospect at some point.

"the option to have a password would be a great addition"

A lot of strategy games do this. Just make the lobbies closed or open but set a password that way if you give them the password they can join.

It's just a bit more QoL to be able to set it to the parameters and not have to send the password to everyone but you'll likely only have 4 or less people playing Icarus with you anyways most sessions so it's not that big a deal.

We need options for closed to Players we wish to join or add a Option to allow them in when they try to join.
