Whoever's writing these things really needs to learn the meaning of the phrase "up to," as in "can be less than, but no more than." It's rather disappointing to discover that my wife and I can't run our duo through this on our own, and when we try to join the queue, it keeps resetting because someone drops out.
We don't mostly play on our own because the game is better that way, we play on our own because it's a pain in the neck to have to rely on other random players (who are complete strangers and may or may not be flaky twits) in order to get anything done.
We designed our characters to work well in tandem with each other and to complement each other's strengths and weaknesses, and I'm sure the pair of us could handle a mission designed for four average players assembled randomly (i.e., through the LFG system), and I see no reason why we should be denied the opportunity to do so. If we go in the mission and fail, whose loss is it, really? It's just our time and effort at stake, so what's the issue with allowing smaller groups?
