what version of AOE3(vanilla, TWC or TAD)did you enjoy most?

[danno527]

I only got the game when TAD came out so i will have to say Fan-Patch TAD or when i first got the game and it was so awesome and new to me.

I would have to say I enjoyed all 3 about equally, mostly because of the clans I was in, each has been similar to the environment we have here and really its what has kept my interest in the series for the last 9 years. (Yes I started playing age when I was . As for pertaining to just the age 3 genre only, vanilla was good because I had a lot of multi-game friends who played also at the time, and there was always people to play, TWC, that same core as vanilla kept me going for a bit (then they quit) and then I joined N3O while TWC was still up and just switched to another great playing environment, with some breaks of course, then TAD came out which I would have quit 100% if it hadn't been for you guys.


And before anyone asks AOE2 The Conquerors was my favorite age game of all time, nothing could compare to the online infrastructure it had, the fairness in the games, and the amazing custom scenarios.

a 1v1 ? please...

tad has certainly more options etc... , honestly the amount of options in supremacy is confusing

Well I only started playing AoE3 in the latter part of TWC, so I'd have to say FP-TAD. Just the diversity of strategies and civs that's available is astounding.

Well, I only joined bit late. When I bought AOE3, I checked the ES and saw that everyone got TAD. So I got it too. So I have been playing TAD the whole time and enjoyed it very much (both pre fan patch and post fan patch). Hoping that the next FP will make Brit OP. Lol.

I think brits will be a top civ - no worries

[Hydrovert5]

Brits has always been a top civ in my opinion, at least in team games.

Boom while rush what the heck?

[Roger_The_Rogue]

Hee, hee. My Brit is not OP due my noobish skills. Lol. One can dream of super HI.

TAD.....

whats the different.....

the game is the game......

TAD or TWC give you only more opportunities than Vanilla stand alone!

[Sporting_Lisbon]

Well TAD is cooler for me now cause I dominate the game better than I did in the other versions, but still TWC was the Age of Abuse

+1 to I__CHAOS__I original post.

The addition of Treaty I really enjoyed (in TWC?). I also lobbied hard for, and appreciated the reduced levelling requirements that came out with ?TAD?.

Bottom line: It was not until I found N3O that I could consistently find phun team games.

So, N3O ftw
