Get into a pregame lobby with at least one other player.

Press B and leave the lobby.

You should now have your own custom lobby.

Sorted.




You dont need to do the stuff in that other thread. Just do this and it works.

I just went into a lobby with at least one other player.

I pressed B, and left the lobby.

I did not have my own custom lobby.

The other person has to have created the party.

This has worked for me every single time.

You saying into someone else's lobby who's already playing customs, cos that works.. Just from a normal lobby? Er.. no?

I'm having the same problem. Leaving a lobby that someone else has made, and it just puts me into a normal lobby.

Ive had my own custom lobby every time Ive left a lobby. Join custom parties then and it should defo work. Look in your recent player list for people to join for a second then back out their lobby.

So we have to be in a custom party, then quit out of the custom party, to get our own custom party?

*Already knew we could do that*

Ive done it from matchmaking lobbies. Every time Ive backed out of a lobby I didnt make from the menu Ive had a custom lobby.

I understand that, I'm just saying that I've spoken to at least 10 people and it doesn't work for any of them.

I get invited into a party, then leave the party. I do that, and I'm just in a normal matchmaking lobby.

Join a party and leave thats all Ive ever done. If it doesnt work for you then look on your recent players list for custom lobbies you can join then leave.

Either that or Im full of **** and this doesnt actually work.

Who knows?

Seriously I thought this worked. I havent played the Beta for ages but Ill try and get a customs lobby like this when I next go on it.

I tried this on the Beta last night and it doesnt work. I was talking bull the whole time even though I thought it worked.

Sorry if anyone kept trying and failing to do this.
