Curious about the 1910 expansion disabled

[cosdogg]

Been playing live TTR for years with the 1910 expansion. Started playing on here last year. Curious as to why the expansion pack disabled is the default and why so many players seem to play it over the expansion. Expansion greatly reduces variance, IMO.

It's pretty much the opposite, and this is why is disabled


EDIT: I thought you were referring to the Arena settings, as for the default setting that's not the reason, but the first statement still stands

Like any game on BGA, the default settings should be "beginner friendly", so players only knowing the base game should not feel lost. That's why any expansion is disabled by default.

I was pretty confused when I read the message lol

If you are fortunate enough to draw a 20 point card in the original your chances of winning increase exponentially; there are way more routes in the expansion, and way more ways to offset a poor initial draw in the expansion.

Yes I agree with you, prefer 1910 mega expansion cause it has many tickets to go for, also it’s boring only play with 30 tickets and all players mostly just spam 6 routes to win.
