Yep, people only play supremacy, and sometimes deathmatch. Never conquest or lightning.

that was because in aok defensive structures were way to strong, esp. in black forest and lets say ur the turks....it got a little better after the latest patch, but that isn't a problem anymore. Same with the relics, easy to collect and could easily defend. But now there is no longer a relic victory so it isn't a prob in aom.

^^^^The thing is that alot if not most people bought the name off of the age of series brand. Wich was up there with starccraft for the best RTS ever.
So it has a lot of fans on name recognition. AOM however is not a game that old age of series fans seem to enjoy all that much, the casual RTS'ers seem to hate the game and its a flip of the coin with the hardcore ones.
So alot of people just buy the game play a few times put it down and never play it again. When i first got the game i played it like twice and it just sat there for a long while. It was'nt till i got completely bored with every other RTS game that i finally forced myself to play it. It took a while and eventually i started to like it, agrivation aside. But thats afairly big commitment to ask your avergae player to invest in the game.
