Just saw this link on the official age of empires website!
Seems they want to meet in the middle and actually implement lobbies for the DM community with the option to play ranked! What do you guys think? Better solution than the ranked matchmaking, or should they keep the status quo, with an arguably dead ladder?
Personally I don't play DM so I'm not bothered too much by either decision, but I can see how players are happy with this change, or at least have a silver lining about the removal of the ranked matchmaking. I do like that they at least show consideration and are willing to think along for a better game.
Of course this is still aoezone so MS bad (kappa), so fire away!
