CoH is not big enough to split the community any further, we cannot separate randoms from arranged teams and let them play on different ladders.

And my experience mostly comes from 2v2 and 3v3 with 2 similarly skilled friends, which makes it way easier for the match maker to find opponents [...]

There is no feasible way for CoH to create even more separately handled ladders without killing the game outright. The only option is to somehow get 5x or so the player base on a constant basis, and that's not going to happen.

Problem is not the AT themselfs, even randoms are capable of winning vs AT teams, when the match is fair skill vise. AT team surely will have an advantage, but its not the over the top one.

Particularly in CoH2 problem with AT teams is AT rank and the way its made is complete and utter BS. Game simply doesn't take into a consideration individual AT players ranks, which leads to MM being garbage.

There is no easy way to even fix this problem. You cant take individual ranks, because there are people who exclusively play AT and dont have solo rank, but you also cant have this "artificial" AT rank because for the game rank 14 AT consisting of top 10 players is equal to legit AT of rank 14 players for instance.

The only solution would probably be, instead of changing how AT works, change how randoms vs AT treated. Randoms should be rewarded more or pushed less when playing against AT teams for sure, at least it this would soften the unfairness of the MM.

And the second solution would be making AT teams prioritise playing against other AT teams. Because right now, MM just throwing AT teams against randoms simply because it allows to find game faster.

+1

Randoms should get severely rewarded if they win against arranged teams, but nothing should happen to their playercard if they lose normally (only if they abandon their team early)

Don't really care for the skins argument (though I think the overtop skull face thing is cringe). Just gonna correct some things

1: There are two campaigns, one is 1944 ish. This is the total war campaign.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Monte_Cassino (this battle for example is featured in the campaign.)
the other is in 1941-43, not exactly specified. Though i have nothing to back this up extensively, Im pretty certain its 42-43 rather than 41. But who knows when they'll do the SP campaign.

This stuff is MP, and it's based of the 44 rooster of the US. With the chaffe being a thing or whateer, like i said i earlier don't care for skins.
But it's good for the long term health. I think the reaction is overblown personally since you don't really stare at your units face unless you're comp stomping but whatever.
