I'd like to ask you why are you so sure that pure YR is more played than mods in these days. It's quite well known that XWIS's YR player lobby is empty and Mental Omega's lobby has a bigger activity of players.
Not to mention, most of the people who would play pure YR only probably wouldn't even download or know about Ares since there is no central community for the game now, which would allow casual nonmod players getting known of it on the first place. EA's forums are oriented towards postGen games, that's a fact.
I do acknowledge, pure RA2 is still played nowadays. But thats an entirely different story - competetive multiplayer is all about some bugs being banned and others abused. And the many, many efforts to change or fix it via UPs have failed many times already. See RA2 1.007 as reference.
