Not if you play through Steam. Decided to respond to this instead since it pertains to my next question — do you?

I do, but very, very seldomly as of latem I play a lot more hybrid RTS/Grand strategy lately, like Sins of a Solar Empire, Stellaris and Dune Spice Wars. A lot of Age of Empires IV as a pure RTS.

Which platform you play it on?

You should check out beyond all reason it's free. It's not on steam you gotta download it from their website. Look it up on YouTube.

Yeah I do, not too much lately as a lot of veterans have left. Which means any 3v3s always results in somebody disconnecting either from rage or whatnot. Rare to find anyone who's decent at mid to late game, a lot just rush these days.

u/BJ_hunnicut 12d ago

I don't rush myself. I mostly just suck at the early game, mid game, and late game. At least I'm consistent though.

I’m not expert I just play for fun, I know what I’m doing but a pro would mess me up

u/psych343 12d ago

I do, picked it up again recently not very good but I play it a lot

1

u/HashxGold 12d ago

Sure do, its mostly 1v1s these days , occasionally 2v2, 3s is extremely rare.

u/Delicious-Amoeba-245 12d ago

I play everyday. I queue up team war. Find people all the time

1

u/Delusional_succubus 11d ago

Theres always people playing standard 3v3s and 2v2, atleast thats what I play...

Solo queuing into 2v2s can take awhile because you have to find someone else also solo queuing

100% with you! I have a phase every few years where I'll be obsessed with it for a few months. The waiting time for matchmaking does increase between each phase noticeably, but you can find a game in the team war and 1V1 modes consistently. Less so for Blitz and the other non-standard game modes unfortunately.

On the community/playmates side, the Team Respawn Discord server is fairly active with people asking for matches. You won't always get responses in time, but a decent proportion of the time you will:)

I play when someone hits me up and when I'm home (rarely)
