This is almost invariably due to HTTP traffic to the game being blocked by a firewall or antivirus software.
In the case of firewalls, the game requires an exception (as would any multiplayer game) to be able to connect and play online.
Some anti-virus software incorrectly blocks the server-listing traffic from the game with “features” such known as HTTP filtering or “Link Scanning”
AVG Anti-Virus is particularly notorious for this, and requires re-installing AVG to fully disable the “feature”.
In rare cases this can be caused by multicore CPU timing (see “My server and/or game is jittery” below), third-party addons, or the listing server being temporarily offline.
If we got an age of empires online game going somehow (not sure if they have it anymore), i’d totally be down to play. That’s the most timeless favorite game of mine ever.
