Keyboard Menu Controls
So I don't use a controller, and it's apparent that this is a pretty poor console port when it comes to the actual menu controls when using the keyboard.

Me and my friends have figured out that Spacebar is to "Accept" and Esc is "Back", but we don't know how to select "Custom" or "Invite" using the keyboard when we are in a lobby and there is absolutely no indicators anywhere, no PC/Keyboard tutorial in game, the input settings don't have menu input methods either.

Any help on this?

Through sheer luck, we found that the O key is to change the lobby to custom/public and I is the invite key...

This is some basic stuff that needs to be shown in game...

Dude this game came out on Steam like three years before it came out on console. It wasn't ported from PlayStation lol.

Anyways to switch from custom to public press the o key and to invite press the i key (as you already stated above me but other people may be wondering the same and skim through posts and miss information easily).

The devs just simply haven't made an updated keyboard and mouse UI for the menus yet. From what I remember they've already acknowledged this (I think somewhere a number of updates ago they talked about it in a news post). They'll get to it.

I don't understand why you'd delay fixing tiny, very useful things like this. Especially after the game is released...

It's not so much delaying, just more so they're focused on other things. But yea I get where you're coming from - Updating the UI can't be that hard of a thing to do. But with a team the size of theirs then smaller stuff like this is easy to slip by them while they put their attention towards something else.

They obviously know about this so it's only a matter of time until they update it.
