But I quit out of frustration, mainly irritated due to stacking and what not. Anyway, I liked it so I figured I'd give it a try again. My second game today, just got booted. I was trying to escort an outpost constructor, got jumped by 3 technoflux scouts, and they destoyed the constructor. I got two of them, but man, I haven't played this game in a while, and I just wasn't good enough. I don't think that's a good enough reason to kick someone. But that's the thing, this is what I remember about this game. Just mean people in general run it, and force new players like myself from the game. So yeah, nother player out. Just figured I'd let the community know how new players are treated when they start to play.

There are a lot of pretentious turds in the game, and a lot more in the forums. That's a completely separate issue from whether or not the boot was justified: it's just a fact of Alleg.
If you like the game enough, then you'll just have to learn to ignore them and have fun anyway. If it just isn't worth it... then I'm sorry to see you go, but I totally understand.

Hey, I am fed up by people calling me an asshat for taking care of my team.
Just change the perspective for a second:
- All team is doing useful stuff like scouting, trying to get on the enemies' miners early, defending our miners...
- Our OP-con is completely safe, it is already on the rock with 2 Belters figs on D vs 3 TF scouts coming in one by one
So far everyone is happy looking forward to an open and thrilling game
- The voobs on con d feel themselves as the superheros: both shoot at the attackers with their miserable aim
- I get a bad feeling and ask them to nan the con
- Both voobs claim to be the whore, hoping for the other defender to do the inferior nanjob
- I ask them again to nan using CAPITAL LETTERS and voicechats
- The voobs ignore me
- All team is hoping the con might survive the egotrip of 2 misslead voobs
- The opcon dies
Everyone else on the team gets some frustration, as the team was set back without any need. They know, that nearly every aspect of the game becomes harder after losing the opening OP: minerkillers and scouters have no forwadbase to launch from, Miner D will face more enemies, as there is no cover by a forwardbase,...
So what did happen? 2 voobs fooled their team, because they were too 1337 to nan. But the team is a team and has no need for 2 freaked out voobs on an egotrip, so the voobs get booted by me (the com) to free some space for players, that are willing to contribute to the team.
So who is the asshat? The commander taking care of the issue, or the voobs fooling their team, ignoring well-meant advice, coming to the forums and telling some cock-and-bull story?
Dear phungus, if you don't want to play a teambased game, dislike frustration and want to shoot stuff, I recommend to play some first-person-shooter in offline mode. No other players will disturb your ego-trip, your character is superior to the dumb ai-bots and if you still lose you can set the game to easy-mode.
If you like Allegiance you better get used to behaving like a teamplayer, get some self-reflection going and the will to improve your gameplay.
