My issues with this game.

Luckaly an easy solution is on hand: Press "X" and ask them why they do this and advise them not to.
--- Quote ---You have Engineers that don't know what the hell a Repair cool down timer is. So they'll sit there hitting stuff over and over again thinking they're actually helping.

Chances are that these are relatively new players, might I recommend you press "X" and teach them the most efficient way to do their "circuit"
--- Quote ---You have Pilots forgetting to press the '1' key so their abilities aren't running 24/7 "WHY DO THE ENGINES KEEP BREAKING!!" Ummm maybe because you're using moonshine constantly...

Perhaps a new player, have you tried pressing "X" and educate them on the use of their abilities?
--- Quote ---You have Engineers that think they're gunners and let the ship die because they were too busy shooting.
--- End quote ---
Sounds like tunnelvision. Maybe this is a good time to press "X" and warn them of components in need of repair.
--- Quote ---You have pilots that don't know where the guns are on the ship. (for example a galleon) They'll fly straight at the enemy instead of to it's side so it's weapons can actually fire at them.
--- End quote ---
Perhaps a lapse in judgement, tactical manouver or a rookies pilot's error. I assume you pressed "X" and asked him why he performed such a manouver?
--- Quote ---It's a cool game and all but it feels like the only way to have fun is with some friends while you're buzzed. Other wise It's just a headache to play with randoms. :/

Have you tried pressing "X" before the match starts and work out some tactics?

Perhaps some undue sarcasm on my part there. It's frustrating when meeting players unwilling to even consider feedback of any kind.
Still, I'd very much like to believe most problems can be solved with a bit of patience and a friendly chat :)
I see so many people rage about others in just as many different games without even having asked the guy why he is doing what he does.
I wish for Guns of Icarus to be different in that regard. And so far it has been, let's try and keep it that way!

I preceded to press X to try and communicate with my team to no avail. They still did these things over and over to the point where I had to find another game.

I understand frustration with people who refuse to listen, but frankly, if you start blaming the game for the people that play it, you're going to run into a lot of issues playing any multiplayer game. If you feel like you have a good grasp on the game, turn off the beginner matches and find some with some mid to high level folks, might have an easier time to communicate there.
