What about Players vs AI skirmish like in SC 2 ?

Yes it's possible with custom games but nobody ever play that stuff, a matchmaking against Ai would be nice to learn the games against AI.

As a new RTS player I do not learn anything in 1V1 since I'm matched against people way better than me.

Playing hundred of hours solo against bots in order to learn isnt very fun.

you are asking to play against bots but then saying you don't want to play against bots?

I probably did not explain things right. :p
I mean I wanted a matchmaking game mode to play against bots but with real humans in my team like 3 humans vs 3 bots

Just 1v1 against bots tend to be borring.

Co-op Commanders is one thing, but PvE Skirmish is completely another. Being able to TRY things without being FORCED into things. We get the PvP without the PvP, it's simply "VS AI".
It's not Story-Driven, it's not timed, it's not versus other players. It's simply Player vs AI. That is what he wants, and it's actually what I wanted before I quit the game.

Yeah thats what I want xD Fighting Ai in a "real game" with players in my team.

Since I'm new in RTS im not good enough for 1v1 against real players and fighting 1v1 AI isnt fun if I should do it for 200h

If you're new to RTS games, you might as well come over to StarCraft 2, which some of these devs worked on, get a feel for the easier stuff, and work from there, because it's 100% working on most-every system. And should SG ever release PROPERLY, you'll already have a feel for the mechanics.
SC2 has lots of free stuff, including the OG campaign "Wings of Liberty", along with what you desire, Vs AI Skirmish, and fairly easy Co-Op Commanders mode.

I was super disappointed to find that you cant even set up a custom game to play skirmish vs the ai with any kind of difficulty. Its a trainer bot, a basic bot, and a peaceful bot. The AI does NOTHING in skirmish. Just stands around making like 6 or 7 units and doesn't expand.
