Pantheon single player matches

Hey, I've been noticing an upswing of Pantheon matches that either don't connect with any additional players, or only connect with one or two human players.

 

For the times when it's only myself playing, the game goes directly from the "searching for a suitable match" screen into gameplay without the connecting step.  Every time that happens I ask in chat if any human players are on and do not receive a response. 

 

I've also noticed that, when more than one human is involved, games are starting with a majority of characters under computer control rather than human - but worse is that the human players are often on the same side - so it's essentially human vs. computer... which is always a cakewalk.

 

It's seemed to increase in the last couple days.  Is this planned on being the way matches are handled in the future, or are we likely to see more human players as further updates come out?

You can see if there are human players by seeing if any players involved uin the game has a ping higher than 0. I've also been getting a lot of "A atch is attempting to be made..." that don;t get resolved into anything.

Oh yeah, I know how to tell when a player is human or computer controlled - I'm commenting on the how frequently a Pantheon game is comprised mostly of computer controlled characters rather than having human players in there.
