I don't know about you guys but recently the games have been totally unmatched and I end up facing axis with double/triped vets whilst I'll barely be lucky to have single vetted infantry!!!
Also what's the deal with the axis having so many panzershreks!!! Grrr.

Well the grens with panzashreks are cheep. Also what could be happening is you could get into a game with people who have 2 high ranked players and 1 low ranked player which lowers the % alot.

Several decent suggestions were posted...Best one, in my opinion, is to have company vet affect ANTS (although this would be difficult)

Well, the best system is obviously to get the rating system in... we are stretched so thin right now with backlogs of work...

A smaller percentage gap to help out the noobies. I'm finding it hard to get started and now my percentage is so low people don't want to play in my games. It's very difficult to start out unless you're frankly, awesome lol.

It's just as hard to create a game with someone who has 100% as someone who has 0% w/l.

The only suggestion i could make based on your argument is to somehow implement vet into the anti team stacking system. Only problem is, just because someone has no vet, doesn't mean they aren't good.  This also would encourage the use of multiple companies.  This would also lead to certain players being avoided and them not being able to get games because some people will refuse to play against uber vet.  If i were to do it i would apply a 1-10 rating system that measures the vet of a persons company.  A override system that allows people to still play would be nice also, mabe put a big bold warning.  I'd leave the other details to the people with the statistics tho. 

I don't know how hard this would be to implement, and chances are, its already been considered by the devs and turned down for good reasons.

Good idea, some kind of vet score would be more useful than percentage win/loss. It's impossible to do any thing against double/tripled vetted axis when all I have is basic infantry and rangers etc... they just cut them down. I'm trying to improve my tatics/company pop but it's just insane coming up against those guys.

Vet score would be nice, but you can already tell the vet level of somebody by checking on the leaderboard. Also, vet on infantry is alot more lethal than vet on a single tank. Vet on somethings aren't as good as they are on others so you can't get an accurate depiction of vet by just their total army experience score.

I want to be able to see how many games someone has played next to their name/Faction Player.

I agree, win % needs to be seen in the light of total amount of games played.
Right now win % means very little, you may have played 2 games and lost them, giving you 0%... meaning people will actively avoid you for no justified reason other than that number.

Also, it's important that new players get the choice not to face +50 games players.

Once again owned by better players with 20%+ and vets, king tigers, panthers etc etc etc...

It's not easy as a new player at all.

There needs to be a barely visible green line for "Shut the hell up."
