So are we gonna get some sort of privacy settings, like password or max player or just limit it to only your friends from GOG or something cos trying to play co-op with just my buddy kinda sucks when the server fills up a bunch of complete strangers who aren't looking for a good time but just wanna speed run and impress us all with how fast they can make us load the next map or something.

so yah, password? maxplayer? kicking?.. any of that stuff gonna come along down the line?
Yeah, totally agree with the above post. Passwording a server or a 'Friends Only' option when hosting would be really nice for the very same reason!

There is a work around, for now. Turn off GOG Galaxy, launch the game, start the server via spawnipserver. After that have your friends join through the console via connectip *your ip"
A simple password function would be enough. Right now it's not possible to play cooperatively with a friend over internet.
The server is immediately full with strangers who run around and somehow are able to put us on fire with flares.

spawnipserver doesn't work for us since we can't open ports on our routers.
This, a million times this. Please for the love of GOD.
One of the developers stated on Doomworld: “Passwords for servers won't happen, Steam and GOG Galaxy need to be the ones to implement the initial support for it, they currently don't which means there's no way to prevent a user from joining any lobby they choose. As of writing, the only lobby API that supports passwords is actually Xbox Live.”

this is misleading since he later said in the same thread that while passwords won't happen, he is already working on private lobbies

He didn't at the time that I read that thread. There was only his message on that page. The thing is – he is rash, brash and rude and frankly one of the reasons I hesitate to buy FS.
