1. It's pretty easy.
2. No, you do not need friends codes.
3. The game will auto-find other players of similar levels, difficulty, etc.
4. I haven't played it in a while, but you can input friend's codes if that's what you're asking.

Thanks for the info.

reason why I'm asking is, I'm buying the game tomorrow and a friend in Cali is getting it, just want to know if we can connect to each other easily.
