We have to resort to creating our own maps because teamplay is thrown out of the window, since no a single team spawns close to each other. Quite annoying.

I agree with the OP. Although, not entirely, the AI is more annoying than challenging. Here I was, with a friend, massing up a big fleet. Our scouts revealed that they had two gigantic fleets massed up and ready to jump (only, they somehow didn't). They must have had 50 carrier cruisers, 8 capital ships and a billion frigates (each). Even though we knew that we were considerably outnumbered, we decided to 'go for it' and say 'here goes nothing'. Hoping we could at least severe
