I was really disappointed in this game. It took me a long time to fully understand the gameplay. By the time I figured it all out and decided I didn’t like it, I couldn’t refund it because I was at 4 hours.
It’s just a frustrating game to play. Lots of clans that bully you, even if you’re in the same faction. You could play for hours and have everything undone in a few minutes by a large attacking force.
When I first started I spent 8 hours straight pushing a bridge that we ended up losing the next day. It took so long to figure out how to craft vehicles and how the game worked. I never felt like clans were an issue since it’s pretty easy to drive past a town and rally 10 people for whatever mission you have in mind.
Gathering players isn’t the issue with clans. My only experience with it was a clan was intentionally trying to block me on a road because they wanted to “claim” the area ahead and build their own FOB, so nobody else was allowed that way. It was just childish behavior.
