Friends Only allowing public players?

[ProdigyXP]

I just got this game today, and each time I create a lobby for MP and choose friends only, a public player eventually shows up in my lobby. I have tried it multiple times.

Also, why does the game not save my previous settings when it comes to game preferences?

Quick join does not abide by the rule of a "friends only" lobby.

As for not saving settings, that's usually a problem with your system.

Thanks for the reply. If I am understanding you correctly, that is a very foolish thing. If I want a friends only game, I want a friends only game. Why would the dev create the option, and then not honor it? It just wastes people's itme right now, as I have just closd the session each time someone joined that was not my friend.

As for the saving of settings, I should have been more clear. I was talking about the game settings within the "create" multiplayer game. They seem to just default (for example, friends only returns to "No" each time).

In case anyone else has this problem, change the setting to "Friends Only", then kick the first public player than joins (KICK button next to their name). Once you do this, it seems to stop the random public players and only accepts friends until the match is closed.
