Multiplayer game setup - no team option

[Venmil]

When trying to setup a MP game with a friend, there is no option for teams??
Surely this is a bug, since taking out that option would be so stupid, that I cant even find words for it.

Yeah, I just noticed this too. The instruction manual clearly shows the option for team games, but the column is currently blank in-game.

Our household was looking forward to a big team game this weekend as well

This is clearly a bug so hopefully this is fixed soon so we can actually play multiplayer.

Upon further investigation by user atlashorizon & co. it would appear that team multiplayer has indeed shipped broken. The option to set teams is essentially "hidden" at the moment pending a patch.
