Hi,
I'm not really a newcomer. I have found this game like 2 years ago. My feelings were like "WOW, what a great game". I have learned basics myself. I have played as a scout some battles. Then I applied to the school to learn the game better. Got no answer.
Peek time of Allegiance is in my time at like 3:00 (-1 GMT).
And I have been looking for some of my favourite games as they are dying. How is it about Allegiance?
How is it about Allegiance?
Anybody still teaches ppl?
Ppl from Europe still play?
With regards.

Hey Datar,
You can freely join the Cadet Program on Steam where we provide learning content and will answer all of your questions, as well as fly with you over VOIP.
Allegiance is hard to kill and hard to bolster. Lobbies are slowest on Mondays, and build up to weekends where the real games happen. It's a slow ramping up from the work week.
As for people from Europe playing, it's always been an international community. You'll find plenty of people from around Europe who play.
Here is a link to the Cadet program.
Love,
DR

Alleg still has lots of people playing on weekends, and some NA weekday evenings (say, ~2400 UTC or so and a bit later).
We don't have a formal Cadet program running right now, but there are plenty of us who are happy to teach. Get on our Discord to chat with us, ask questions, talk about the game, and it will help a lot. Its a lot more active than the forums. Discord also has a voice chat, so you can talk to the rest of us while playing.

There are lots of people from EU and even farther to the right like me...
For Europeans the weekdays are a bit of an issue. Americans sometimes show up on weekdays after 23:00 GMT but that's too late for us...
The weekends are great. 20:00 GMT on Saturday and especially Sunday, goes on for six hours easily. I think last week we had good games going on Sunday until 4AM GMT on Monday!
And yes, the cadet program is dead but informal teaching goes on all the time, lots of people lurk on Discord even from work, etc.

I updated the reddit a bit but it's not very relevant.
I made sure it leads to Steam though and accurately describes things.
