Hi, I used to play AoC (Age of empires 2: the Conquerors) and LoL. Now im looking for a good RTS game with active playerbase. I love to train Build Orders (starcraft, AoC, warcraft) and so. AoC was wonderful but is not active as before. Any game fun to play with friends?

If you want the best RTS experience, especially in a team game 2v2 to 6v6 multiplayer, then there is nothing that comes close to supreme commander forged alliance.

Others will try to lie to you, and tell you otherwise, but that is only because they are inferior creatures who are either unable to or haven't yet had the chance to play the game.

the map pool for sc2 team games are pretty limited, but i would say the games can be as interesting as BW team games. i'm mostly talking about the 2v2 map pool in sc2, because 3v3 and above are just maps that can actually fit that many players and have no real depth to them.

some 2v2 maps may need vetos depending on what you want to play, and as expected, there are very strong attacks before 8 minutes that force you to react radically to defend well. i think that zerg and terran (midgame) because of how strong infestors and bio are.

it's popular, but your random teammates will make lots of mistakes, and it'll be difficult to open economically unless you have a particular map-set

Team games? AoC and RoR Technically, EE and SubCom as well but I don't like them that much. They don't seem that smooth, in my opinion. Maybe Warcraft III + custom maps(World War etc) but I don't know how active they are nowadays. The early C&C games were pretty nice...but yeah. RTS golden age is long over, nowadays people play MOBAs.
Ah, and Battle Realms was rather cool as well.

I believe when HOTS hit there will be an increase in popularity. Esp with team games/ ums. sc2 team games are good imo if you find some good buds to play/skype/ team speak/ vent with.

Blizzard is making some needed changes that I think will make the game's overall popularity go up. I know I wait less time when searching for a team game than 1v1. I think more people play team. Could be wrong though. Hopefuly they bring in clan support.

Cool signature , bro

If you are looking for team rts, then you could try End on Nations .It isabout to be open beta stage and as far as i know, it is going to be more like actual combat then SC2 build-send to death-build slaughter house.Future settings F2T mmorts something.

Well, you could look into DotA 2. Best RTS game by far in the "Tower Defense" genre, if you're into that.

I would suggest Rise of Nations as a fun RTS to play team games in but I think there aren't very many players anymore. Haven't actually checked recently though.

There are still a number of people playing AoC guess it depends on time of day to since theres about 1K people online currently.

Well, for me it's an RTS, but some people know these games under the genre "Tower Defense", so I called it that too .

If you still haven't gotten one, PM me. I got two just laying about after the latest waves.

Supreme Commander is much better than SC2 in larger teams. The starting builder being stronger than any of the early units means you have to fight commander to commander early to be aggressive.
