Thanks. Sometimes I blame the ELO or the inability of Relic to make Allies more appealing (not OP'd or nerf Axis, just more *appealing*)
Leavers are ruining the game

Essentially every hour you live is an hour you not going to get back, so you rage quit because you jumped into a 4v4 automatch with noobs? what did you expect?
I've been in so many games where we could of won but a player drops inexplicably, or calling us noobs because we are not playing 'the way they think we should', sometimes inside the first 4-10 minutes of the game.
I quit quite often 2. If I have complete noob teamates or more often when I have good team vs bunch of noobs.
I don't have a lot of time to play, and I certainly don't wanna waste my play time on idiots/terrible unbalanced games or turn based lag-fest game.
I also don't really care if I could win the game or not. Wining a game vs inferior players is just as satisfying to me as getting steamrolled with 'I just installed this game' teamates vs very good team.
No, I don't feel bad that you don't approve because I have no way to influence what sort of game I will end up in.
If I had option to click 'search for game with players of similar ELO only, don't expand search parameters' Then neither of us would be annoyed.
I don't want to play unbalanced game, period.

Well that's the risk you take sometimes when playing 2v2 randumbs, better to have teammates if you hate this.

It isn't just people not loading in or dropping early on, but, more annoyingly, people who lose one engagement, proceed to abuse their team-mates and then abandon the game (or worse, they start mortaring their ally's base). It isn't a rare occurrence either. Every second or third team game has some guy who throws a hissyfit even though the game is completely winnable. A LPQ punishment system would improve the team game experience significantly.
I had that happen to me too. I never play random team games again after that.

Totally agree with your position mate.
Playing Allies is soul destroying as it is without playing games I have no chance of winning.

I'm getting sick of players who refuse to surrender when a player or 2 drops and/or our team is being royally fragged.
Surrender mechanic is good but sometimes...going afk midgame is the only rational choice

I bought vCoH on January 3rd, 2007.
Still missing the days of vCoH 1.71. It had it's issues, like paks sniping 57s, and the strafe didn't work, but overall, it was probably the most balanced time in CoH history.
OF ruined that. CoH 2 is....balanced in a nasty way. Everyone has an equal stockpile of gamebreaking bullshit. USA is full of early game BS while the OKW doesn't get its BS until late game. It's just a question of how badly you exploit the faction's shit and how quickly, after a patch, you discover the gaping holes of bullshit Relic leaves. But either way, it's all BS. The only "BS" in vCoH that was gamechanging was the fast m8 vs a bunker.

I understand where you guys are coming from, but i am focusing a little bit more on the beginning of matches in my topic. It is frustrating to load into a match, only to see that two of your teammates have dropped. It is possible to win with the AI, but it doesn't happen much.
Axis doesn't have the best AT options in the game

Sometimes, I would rather play with an AI. I've won many tough games with the AI, but it wasn't easy, and it was predicated by me doing extremely well up until that point. This was also in 3v3, where my influence as an individual player was greater than 4v4.
Your best bet is to limit playing with randoms. I've queued up with stellar randoms (Top 10) and newbies (2 games played). Quitters do suck.

The other day I won 1 V 3 since both of my randoms dropped. The glorious feeling of defeating 3 human players by yourself with bots!

Dat moment when the bots are better than the human players
I'll never forget, being able to defeat a couple on 2v2 after they kick my partner (long live the battleservers) and i went afk for 10 mins. Bot OP.

My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.
Bible of Scrublord, Psalt 3:16.
