Can you post a link to the article. We're planning to advertise for more players again, so it would be good to see what sort of stuff people are chancing to find.

It used to be somewhat larger community-wise until some patches killed the player base. All movement is forwards or turning, no three dimensional movement. It had three pretty distinct factions, a light stealth, heavy armor, and shields. each with different weapon types.(that's as brief of a summary as i can think of) Allegiance seems to have a somewhat steep learning curve, more so than any game I've played.

Hi all.
I'm not actually new. I was in on the beta testing for Alleg back in the day, and played almost constantly for a long while after that
I was incredibly sad when MS pulled e plug. And incredibly glad when the community took the reins and kept things alive.
I used to be a reasonably good commander... I had so much fun in that role. I was horrible horrible horrible at bombers and transports and pretty darn good at flying everything else. I really miss Alleg and the passion of the community, so I'm back!
I fully expect to suck massively until I remember how to "ride the bike". I look forward to many future hours of enjoyment
You can thank a link from Penny Arcade for bringing me back here...

Alright, I promise, I'll try to STAY active this time. Really, I will. I have persistent internet and the whole bit. Gonna need to go back to square one, most likely. Probing duty, here I come!

Returning Voob here, so not quite newbie!
It's been about, oh, I want to say 8 or so years since I last played, and how I've missed my Adv Rix scouts!
Sadly I'm not getting too much free time to start playing again, as games can get quite lengthy, but I'm working towards it!
I might take a look at creating a core though in the meantime... I had started to look at doing that right before I had to stop playing last time.
I'm curious to see if I recognize anyone... Is Topgun still blowing everything up in Ints?
