I will say, if you've been playing alone or with 1 or 2 friends it's so much more fun and engaging with a full party even if it's just randos. Hosting a match will almost always get joiners within a couple minutes and barely anyone talks with how good the ping system is. It's a lot more of an oh shit moment if you get caught alone with bugs swarming from every exit because of damage and health scaling with the number of players. Sometimes your scout pops a cocoon while everyone is separated and it's a mad dash to find a good spot to fight the dreadnought, or someone called the drop pod before you did an event and now everyone has to work together to finish it asap before the pod leaves empty. Fellow dwarfs keep you on your toes. There's also moments where everyone is in perfect sync and you easily crush whatever challenges the mission throws at you. Idk, if you already play with others this doesn't really apply. But I think a lot of people play alone or with only 1 other person and miss out on what I feel like is the main fun of the game: the unpredictability of your teammates.
