(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I have two methods and most of the time, they work.

1 ) Be sure your the leader considering your the one acknowledging the method, also tell your friend(s) to NOT back out if they get kicked, once you start the playlist you wish to play, wait until your the only one appearing and after 4-8 seconds your lobby should be dragged into your game. The maximum rate is 4 to 10 seconds, if longer I'd recommend regrouping and trying again.

2 ) Wait 2 minutes before starting the game, and after the two minutes, use the switch lobby function to rotate to private match, once done, do it repetitively (3-5 times) then move onto start the game you wish to play.

Also, another method that seems to work is to submit a positive review on your friend(s), confirmed:works.

You can hold a limitation (3-4 people) and have your friends wait on your playercard and once accessible, they can join your session but that's a no-funner because its possible you won't end up on your original team you had selected, you CAN use party chat though.
