Post: How to boost and lock the lobby in new playlist!
06-24-2010, 07:33 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I found this out today with a friend. What this basically is a online private game but you get XP and everything. This is perfect for boosting or hosting infections. This only works in the new Barebones mode.

1) Have the host go to find match. Once it changes screen, and it says "Looking for players", make the host leave.

2) Once your the only person in the match making process, invite the host BACK into the game and it will lock and be just like a private match.

This works 100% in the new Barebones playlist. Most likely doesn't work on the rest.

Someone test this, why would it only work in barebones mode and not the others? that makes no sense....

It wouldn't be exclusive to one playlist.

When my friends and I did it, the host made me press and hold x, throughout the whole pre-game lobby, and even until we had chosen our classes. so. I don't know haha.

In FFA, or w/e you want. i do FFA, and i join a session and have 3 friends join, once they join, we all sign out. And then do not sign back in until the game loads and tells you to choose your class.
That is with everyone signing in at the same time at choose class.. hope i helped Smile
