[2020] Playing the game with fewer than 5 teammates

Originally posted by kamil: I'm thinking about picking up the game now that it's on offer but I'm not sure if I'll get a chance to play with a full team of 5 friends. Can you play the game, and is it fun, if you only have a group of 4? How about playing on your own, with a team of complete strangers?

You absolutely can play without a pre-made team. It's not mandatory whatsoever. but it is fun!
