Hi, I've recently bought the second expansion, The Asian Dynasties and after playing online on vanilla for a long time previously, where there always seemed to loads of games hosted, and I could get a game instantly, I have noticed that this has changed since I got the expansion. Quick game turns up nothing, and I find it really hard to get a game. Any ideas why this is? Is it something to do with not having TWC?
Thanks,

DuolcKrad, why would more people play AOE3 vanilla than AOE3 fully expanded? That doesn't seem logical.
I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just wondering why people would not get the expansions.

In the manual it says I should still be able to play with people who have TWC - just not play as any of those civs.

even with the TWC you don't get that much games...usually at 12:00 GMT there's less than 20 games and have of them are treaty/FP
