Deep rock galactic looks like a lot of fun but I'm hesitant about the small team sizes. With 4 player teams we would have to have 4 parallel games going at the same time.
With a set of mods natively supported by the game through mod.io, you can get as many as 8 people in a spacerig (lobby) without the game crashing, and in theory up to 16 if they join after the drop pod has landed. I'd recommend the following set of mods if you go that route:
Downside of this method is you have to log into mod.io through your Steam account, and I'd personally be too paranoid to do that at an internet cafe, but it would get y'all down to 1-2 parallel games. In addition, if you turn up swarm sizes, the game basically becomes Starship Troopers: Space Dwarf Edition.
