So I just built a nice new box. Am debating on whether to even install Steam/Allegiance. If there are decent games, I'd like to play...by decent I mean more than 5v5 on semi-regular intervals.
So what what do typical games look like these days?

I looked at some other games like Elite: Dangerous....I don't want want to go to college to learn how to play a f ***ing game...I just want to play. This game was great...hope there is still interest. Let me know!

Sup fishy. Yeah we get some 5v5s on weekdays around 8 or 9 est. Saturday games seem to be 8v8s with some variability. Sunday SGT can get to 12v12 but that lasts only a few hours passed SGT.

On a related note we are gonna do a steam marketing event probably July 21st. You had contact with Rick rashid ya? I wonder if he would be willing to help us out with some advertisement? (Shot in the dark.)

Thanks Dome (didn't you have the aquateam hungerforce milkshake guy avatar?) That sounds cool and if that is typical - good enough for me. Yes, BackTrak and I contacted Rick Rashid to get the license changed for Steam release. He's a nice guy, but to the point. So if you want his help, it would probably be best to have some requests in mind and just hit him up with that. He no longer works for Microsoft so he cannot represent them in any official capacity. If you have ideas, let me know and I'll send an e-mail.

As far as jumping back into the game, I have a nice LG 27" UHD monitor (3840 x 2160 native resolution). I wonder how i'm gonna set up Allegiance to work on that...lol?!

Oh, also..is Discord how teams chat in game or are they still using Teamspeak?

Thanks again Dome!

Hi fishbone,

Don't think about it just download and install Steam and Allegiance and play some games.
It's always great to see an old timer return.
