This game is really cool. Will be using it every time I'm out. How do you get allies in neighbor cities like that? You know people in New York? Or did you meet them on here?
I played the game for a few days and I had been playing while hanging out with friends of mine, and they asked what it was and ended up getting the game, too.
Also, you can use the community forums to talk to people, and you can use the Wire ingame to send people messages. If you go to Launch, and then swipe over to Zone or Region, you'll see the leaderboards. From there you can send people messages and ask for help, or ask if they need you to do anything.
I've spoken to many people using the wire, i've even set up a truce between a group of Legionaries and my group of Faceless so we can take down the Swarm in Long Island.
