Allegiance
If any of you still remember Allegiance. As you know, it was abandoned by Microsoft (their own lack of foresight it seems ). Nonetheless, I still have to say it is one of the best team-based space sims ever. Fortunately, I've recently discovered, some fans have kept it alive.

Only seems to have a max of 50 people on some days, but it works.

. By the way guys the tutorials are boring as **** but you need them, the game has got a helluva a learning curve, its not exactly a simulation but very hard nonetheless. Although even after so long i just skipped them and went to the practice arena......... still got it 
. The Voice Chat (or QuickComm) options still amaze me to this day, you basically hit a quickhat key, touch a button under a certain category and your pilot says over the comm channel whatever he says, theres various voices but theres TONS of these. Which I absolutely love, instead of typing I just hit which category I need and hit the command/taunt/order/request whatever. My favorite has to be the taunt where your guy says "oh whoopty ****ing-do" (really) or the one where you can say "you havent heard the latest news? we just got our asses kicked man!".
