Regarding the earlier suggestion that I should just play custom games for now, I just got out of my first one. Basically it was going well for about fifteen minutes until someone died and decided that it would be cool to randomly quit the game at that point. Ordinarilly, this isn't a game stopping situation, but everyone in the game was promptly hammered with neverending "desync detected" popup errors which basically made the game entirely unplayable.
