No games found in multiplayer when DLC map packs installed

Having any DLC map pack installed except for the free Atlas Gorge multiplayer map DLC, will prevent CoD:AW MP from matching the player with anyone that does not have the exact same combination of map packs installed. It will not fall-back to DLC-less matchmaking if it cannot find any such players. For some reason, Activision apparently intended this[6].
This will result in a loop of Searching for available games → No games found.
This issue affects mostly new players, since the default (Gold) edition of Advanced Warfare sold on Steam comes with the Havoc map pack pre-installed.

Multiplayer mouse acceleration

Some users have reported mouse acceleration, which can be fixed by an .ini edit.
Edit the multiplayer config file[7]
  1. Locate the config file (This can be found at <path-to-game>\players2\config_mp.cfg).
  2. Change these 3 inputs to "0":
    3. cl_mouseAccel "0" (should be 0 by default)
cl_pitchspeed "0" (Default 140)
cl_yawspeed "0" (Default 140)
  3. Save the file (if the game is resetting this file, right click config_mp.cfg and go into Properties > Click on "Read Only" and apply).
