Can we get a private match setting?

[Karak Sonen]

I love my friends, but sometimes i just want to play by myself to see if i can solo higher difficulties, and you can only choose between public or friends only.

Set yourself to offline in steam friends list.

That does not work. Even when turned offline you still pop up on the map.

Yeah, but your friends are less likely to know

But that feature is broken anyway. Often i can't even click on a single mission. Maybe because they get displayed but are private? In that case they shouldn't even appear.

Since matchmaking was not (And still is not) working properly, they came to just look around the globe for missions, so yeah, they will notice.

Noticed that happening a few times as well, but restarting usually fixed that.

Absolutely this. A private option to play solo where friends list either cannot see I am online or even a request to join feature where I must accept it by pressing yes or whatever will do. Its annoying if wanting to play solo and BOOM. 'stevie and bobby have joined the game'. (random names used to not be a douch lol)

Or when you play a few rounds with early unlocks with someone who just started, and chad mcdiver and lord divertron join with 500kg, walking barrages and mortars in an tier 3 mission.

I want this option, I hate someone in my friend list that I just accepted just joined the game without letting me know.
